of flight crews will have been
broken. Stewardesses have been
serving aboard the Caribbean
Clippers between Miami and Ha
vana, Miami and Nassau, and
Miami and Merida 'Mexico* since
March.
Previously it had been consid
ered that the length of most Pan
American routes made* for long
hours of uninterrupted flying—
not particularly conducive to
ideal working situations for wom
en. The stewardesses, however,
will supplement the made stew
ards who will continue to serve
on such long routes as to the
Canal Zone, Rio and Buenos
Aires.
Principal qualifications for the
stewardess jobs are: knowledge
of Spanish, s:ngle, good health,
between 19 and 25„ two ,years ,of
high school or commercial school
education—and a neat 100 to 125
pounds.
While on duty the girls will
wear trim, powder-blue collarless
tailored coat, matching skirt,
wide, soft-collared shirtwaist,
brown shoes, powder-blue Robin
Hood-type cap, and stewardess in
signia pin on the jacket coat.
The “ideal stewardess” (judg
ing from the average character
istics of the first group of stew
ardesses flying out of Miami) is:
blue-eyed, brown-haired, slender,
5 feet, 3 inches tall, poised and
self-possessed, active in sports,
an expert swimmer, a high school
graduate with business training
—and pretty.
