De Land pool. Bits and parts. With a "know-how" skill developed in thirty-two years experience as a machinist, Fred W. Casey, sub-contractor in the De Land, Florida pool, bends over a heavy lathe as it machines a part for the nation's war machine.

Women Accepted for Voluntary Emergency Service. Pretty as her picture is this young woman in the trim uniform that enlisted U.S. Navy WAVES will wear this winter. The smartly styled, comfortable uniforms are in the traditional "Navy blue" with a soft rolled brim hat. Women between the ages twenty and thirty-six with a high school education or its business school equivalent are eligible, providing they meet physical and aptitude requirements. After training, they will receive rating and pay commensurate with their experience and ability. The pay, incidentally, will be exactly the same as that for men in the same rating, plus allowances. The Navy particularly desires women trained as general clerks, secretaries, stenographers, duplicating machine operators, typists, file clerks, bookkeepers, warehouse clerks, stock clerks, radio operators, teletype operators, simplex and multiplex operators. Some, too, will be trained as aviation machinists mates, gunner's mates and for torpedo maintenance

Bantam, Connecticut. Norman Randall, right, bucks Alec Wasdo's rivets in a sub-assembly shop at the Warren McArthur aircraft seat plant. Randall is a native of Patchogue, Long Island, who came to Bantam from Lowell, Massachusetts, where he learned sheet metal work. He came to Bantam in the fall of 1941, and in December married a girl from Goshen, Connecticut, ten miles from Bantam. They are one of the four couples who honeymooned in the new defense homes project in Bantam. Alec Wasdo began work at Warren McArthur at the same time as Randall, but he drives to work from his former home in Waterbury. Wasdo was formerly a bartender, with no previous experience at factory work. He's already decided he prefers it to tending bar

America's youth builds and flies model planes on miniature flying fields. Model plane builders get their craft ready for the air at a competitive meet at Modelhaven Airport, near the City of Baltimore in the eastern U.S. state of Maryland. Every year, young model builders bring to Modelhaven, "the world's smallest airport," model planes which show astonishing improvements over previous models. Model building has long been a popular hobby among American youngsters, and model builders of other years are now putting their practical experience to use in U.S. war plants and in the armed forces. The National Aeronautics Association, through its model division, the Academy of Model Aeronautics, has founded an Air Youth Divison to bring a coordinated activity in aviation to American youngsters. Post war plans include an Inter-American Model contest, to bring the young model builders of South American countries, the U.S., and Canada into friendly competition

America's youth builds and flies model planes on miniature flying fields. A member of the San Antonio Gas Model Club, which does its weekly flying at Kelly Field in the city of San Antonio in the southwestern U.S. state of Texas, proudly displays his amphibian model airplane, which has a six foot (1.8 meters) wing spread. When an earlier model crashed there was nothing left but one good wing. This young model enthusiast decided to build a new plane around it. He built an amphibian and turned out a perfect flying job. The plane is made of balsa wood covered with silk and waterproofing material. Like millions of other young Americans who make model building their hobby, this young man will be called upon to put his practical experience in aeronautics to use in the air-minded post war world
