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
