This man was willing to trust his question to me and I was able promptly, correctly to. answer him. That lead to a long, congenial association with his firm. This try me system has worked time and time again and has never failed to win new respect from men -about womens ability in this onethqp only a. mans world, domain.

position as manager of a construction company proves her point. The sole responsibility, concludes Kay, is with women alone changing the mistaken opinion that we are intruders and have no working knowledge of on the job problems and needs. We have advanced along these lines our continued competence is completely up to us individually. Lois' D. Johns finds serving as a one-girl office force for her company challenging and rewarding.

Much of the day she tends shop alone and must have the know-how to make instant decisions, at times important enough to seriously damage the business if she should prove wrong. Says she, It takes a of training and, through our club we gain this by comparing experiences, sharing knowledge. As they realize the caliber of our members, our bosses increasingly have encouraged our club activity.

But it could very well be to consult with a foreman, inspect material, deliver an urgent message to the boss and report it correctly. In fact, they love their work so much they have a big campaign going to interest other women in training in engineering and related courses. The local chapter main-, tains a scholarship at Long Beach State College which goes to women students in training for work with con; struction firms. THIS YEARS recipient is Adele Miller of La Mirada, a civil engineering student, who will join her husband, William, in his firm upon completion of her studies.

Shirley Smith, in partnership with her husband, Earl, in a steel fabricating firm, puts it this way: Just as in, marriage, my husband and I are partners in business. That I have been able to learn every phase of this operation is the most important insurance my husband, who tutored me, could provide. This way we both protect our investment Teamwork makes for Another advocate of the value of women in construction is Kay Noble, manager of a building contracting There was a time when we women, earning our livelihoods in the industry, were invariably considered intruders by the men- who figured women couldnt possibly know how anything is built Now this image is rapidly on the wane.
