TO WEAR SKIRT
(N.Z.F.A.-Reuter— Copyright) ROME, Jan. 3.
Italy’s first women civil airline pilot will wear a skirt on duty to stress her femininity in a man’s world. Miss Franca De Bernardi, 35-year-old daughter of a former world air speed record holder, said: “I hesitated at first between trousers or a skirt but I am not anti-fem-inist—on the contrary. 1 think it is absurd to try and prevent women being a bit different.”
