ONLY LICENSE BUREAU STAFFED BY WOMEN IN STATE: Operator's licenses are issued to residents of Ann Arbor by the three women shown above, who comprise the only license bureau in Michigan completely manned by women. From left to right are Mrs. Ann Tapp, bureau head and policewoman, and Miss Lorraine Hicks and Miss Julia Hughes. Since May 1, 1942, when they took over the bureau from men police officers, they have issued about 2,500 licenses and collected about $6,000 in fees and traffic fines. Police Chief Sherman H. Mortenson says that the bureau was made feminine in anticipation of the shortage of manpower. The three women also keep track of all arrests and other records for the police department. Mrs. Tapp joined the department in 1940. Miss Hicks and Miss Hughes were hired early last year.

PREP GRID CAREER NEARING END: One of the several seniors on Ann Arbor High's unbeaten football team, lanky John Cartwright, an end who plays both offense and defense, has two more games of high school football. It took considerable perseverance on Cartwright's part to continue the grid sport after he received a serious back injury a year ago. Hours of special exercises went into his come-back effort. This fall he's scored a touchdown and had a helping hand in setting up several others.

CAN'T WAIT TO GET AT 'EM: Rough and ready Bob Weber, Ann Arbor High's hard-charging defensive guard whose dad, loquacious Wally Weber, earned football fame as a Michigan fullback great prior to acceptance of the Wolverine coaching duties he now performs, had a quick answer when his father asked him why he didn't go out for the more glamorous backfield positions instead of the line. "I'd rather be up front where I can get at 'em quicker," young Weber told his father. He'll be getting at 'em quickly again Friday night when Ann Arbor High plays Ferndale Lincoln at Ferndale.
