Fewer Jobs for Students Seen; Journalistic Outlook Brighter By ANN GOODMAN Summer jobs for Oregon stu dents will be fewer this year than last, according to Mrs. Lucile G. Parsons, representative of the Uni versity branch of the U.S. employ ment service. Although Varsity, national mag azine, predicted twice as many po sitions (two million) this year than last, “the job situation is tighter no win this area,” said Mrs. Par sons. This includes office, construc .tion, yard, resort, forestry, and sales work, among others, with the exception of farm labor jobs in -Lane county. A brighter outlook was foreseen in newspaper work by Carl Webb, assistant professor of journalism. ■This is the second year of an “in ternesbip” program he is develop ing, through which he places jour nalism students on Oregon newspa per staffs.

Newspapermen have overcome the grudge they once had against journalism students, since so many of them have become successful, he said. Mrs. Parsons’ office placed ap proximateely 475 students in sum mer jobs last year. Of these, the majority, 226, were for yard work, with office, resort, sales, construc tion and forestry work following. In past times she has received requests from industries in foreign lands. No such opportunities are available now, however. An unusual situation occurred when a man locked himself out of his car and hired someone to help him open it last year. Another student rode to Reno and back one weekend to bring back a car.. He started at 3 a.m. and received daily wages besides having all expenses paid. Applications are on Mrs. Par sons’ desk now for counseling posi tions at summer camps in Massa chusetts and Maine. One reason the Socialists don’t like the Communists is that the latter have grabbed the publicity. i . : t For Spring... • New denim peddle pushers for those spring term picnics • For the warm weather—bright cotton dresses • And . . . for chill}- mornings and evenings—pas tel jackets and cardigan sweaters.

Fog dall, dean of men, advised student drivers yesterday to drive careful ly on the gravel roadway just north of those dormitories. Students who drive too fast on the roadway when weather condi tions are dry, stir up considerable dust, which annoys particularly those men in the Vets dorms, Fog dall said. If necessary, the University will take special action through campus police to prevent careless driving on the road, he warned. Slides To Highlight Curator's Speech Martin Schmitt, curator of spe cial collections of the University library, will speak to the social sci ence club April 19, on “Photo graphs as Research Material in the Social Sciences.” He will illustrate his talk with slides and prints of early Western photographs from the collections in the library.

Miss Foster Weds Library Curator Announced recently was the marriage of Miss Martha Foster, senior assistant in the catologue department, University library, to Martin Schmitt, curator of special collections at the library. The couple were married at the First Congregational church. Dr. Leeper Plans (Continued from page one) the theory of learning and his work in the psychology of personality with Dr. Carl Rogers at the Uni versity of Chicago. “I am glad now to have a chance at actual experimental work,” he said, “and the year could be con sidered primarily as a critical dis cussion of progress in psycholo gy.” A fellowship from the Nations Research council, through which he worked at the University of Chi cago in 1933-34, was given Dr. Lee per mainly for the study of prob lems in learning. Mrs. Leeper and the couple’s three children will accompany the doctor on the trip east. As yet of ficials have not announced who will replace him on the faculty next year. He plans to return to the Uni versity in the fall of 1949. PERSONALIZED j/\ PERSONALIZED ■ ‘ 1' ..

Broadway Actor Realizes (Continued from page one) “We have such a good! time our selves in rehearsal that the aud ience is sure to enjoy the play,” remarked Paul. The only difficulty he antici pates in the part is being able to speak clearly through the don key’s head which he dons when Puck (Louise Clouston) casts a spell on him. Paul still has his cornet and plays in the University band, but his acting interests have taken up most of his spare time. His first leading role in the University theater was Mr. Zero in Elmer Rice’s “The Adding Machine.” He received much favorable comment for his performance from visiting notables for the Northwest Drama conference being held on campus at that time. A senior in psychology, Paul will graduate this June and plans to do graduate work at another school and go into counseling work. Mail orders are now being ac cepted for reservations for the play. All mail orders must be ac companied by a self-addressed, stamped envelope, and a cheek or money order made out to the Un iversity theater. Prices are: reser ved seats, $2.40 and $1.80; general admission, $1.20; and students, 60 cents. There will be no seating on the main floor.
