Date: 1946

Marjorie Kidd, Barbara Ames and others worked in the Drafting Department during the war years. A separate issue of Watt’s Current ran a profile on Ames (second from right), noting that she was “indeed an asset to -hp- as production depends on her accuracy at her drawing board, and she really speeds away on her detail drafting and layout work.”
