Job Openings In USO Work Openings for positions in the USO division, YWCA, occur from time to time, Jean Reynolds, per sonnel secretary for the division, lias informed Karl W. Onthank, dean of personnel. People with college degrees and majors in so cial science, economics, education, or physical education are pre ferred. Few students on the cam pus would qualify, however, as ap plicants must be at least 26, and have experience with community groups. Miss Reynolds explained that al though USO work had been with drawn in some communities, the YWCA is becoming increasingly responsible for work in USO clubs serving industrial employees. Staff members familiar with problems faced by industrial workers in ad justing themselves to strange com munities and new jobs are needed. Positions are open for staff assist ants, 26 to 38, assistant directors, 28 to 42, and directors, 32 to 50. Shrubbery Moved Across Grounds Around the women’s athletic field a number of new shrubs are being set out, D. L. Lewis, superin tendent of the physical plant, an nounced. In addition to this, a bet ter drainage system is being ar ranged for the men’s athletic field. Lewis explained that there are nursery fields on various spots of the campus. From time to time shrubs and plants are transferred from these fields to other places on the campus where the need is greater. Keeping the campus in shape is a full-time job, according to Lewis. Two men are employed full time trimming trees and bushes. There are on the physical plant payroll nearly 75 men who “keep things going.” Soon, he said, the Iawnmowers will have to be started. As soon as the rainy season ends, it will be necessary to water the lawns. For this purpose water is pumped from the millrace, as city water is too expensive to be used on such a large scale. Last summer’s project included the construction of many new walks over the campus. • Lost GOLD and blue-gray Parker "51” pen in AWS room of Gerlinger last Thursday night. Reward.
