All freshmen women who are in terested in being “big sisters” this si ranter for incoming freshmen v omen next fall have been urged to fill out petitions.

Interested girls living off campus r ay get petitions from Miss Gil r. are. 5-9625. or at Gerlinger. “As it will be necessary for e-ery* incoming freshman woman to have a big sister, it is up to the present freshmen women — next > >ar’s sophomores—to petition for E ickling Counseling.” said Miss G lrnore. Liberal Studies (Continued from f>aie one) no sections can be dropped, since only one section is offered for each course, and the same number of staff members is retained. The drop in faculty because of the former situation is true, how ever, in such services as mathe matics, which have a large fresh man enrollment, Johnson added. “We certainly wish the propor tional drop were not the case," Johnson said. “We wish we had the ordinary proportion in the humani ties and all liberal arts, or even an increase." But. he stated, neither th'e liberal arts college or the spe cific areas knew the solution to the problem. “It is part of the job of an in stitution and higher education in general to try to keep some of these areas which have signifi cance in human values from being submerged in the competition of this technological society,” John son asserted. He said these values cannot be measured in the techni cal and financial way that some of the more concrete benefits of the ! sciences, professions aud business j opportunities can.

Science Students Receive Awards Margery Gray, Ralph Kavanagh, Arthur Livingston, Donald Kohler and Russell Lehman, advanced sci ence students at the University, have been awarded graduate fel lowships by the National Science foundation. The awards, each for $1400 plus full tuition, are good for the 1952 53 school year and are designed to encourage the advance of scientific talent. The five may use their awards to attend any accredited institu tion in the United States or abroad. Miss Gray, who is working on her master's degree in biology, said she was planning to stay at Ore gon. Four hundred' awards, varying in size from $1400 to $3000, were made by the foundation, she added. They were notified here of the se lection more than a week ago, she said. Economics Instructor To Leave UO for Yale Edward Budd, instructor in ec onomics, has received an appoint ment to Yale University effective in fall 1952. Budd came to this campus last September from the University of Illinois, where he taught for two years following completion of his graduate work at Berkeley, Calif. Summer Work Listed by Bureau Looking for a good down-to earth and back-to-nature Job this summer? Mrs. Shirley Sylvester, head of the University Employ ment bureau, could probably make some suggestions. Job prospects on the local scene, she said, are not ns promising as last year owing to the decrease in construction in this area. But she doesn't think this is any indication of fewer summer jobs in the north west in general. For example: Maybe you'd like to try your hand at gold mining in Alaska. She has requests for young men from one Alasku mining company which offers $1.38 and one-half an hour, plus $2.25 a day for room and board. The pay isn’t exceptional, she said, but the work week will be from 56 to 63 hours so 16 to 23 I hours of time and a half. Oregon t’aves Interviews She also reports that Richard Sabin, manager of the Oregon Caves resort, will be on campus this Tuesday to interview students interested in summer work at the caves. Appointments for interviews may be made through her office in the Extension building, she said. In the primitive woods and sky blue division, jobs for both Univer sity men and women In summer camp w:ork are offered in Oregon, Washington and California. For the girls these include YWCA, I Campfire girl and Girl Scout camps with such jobs as counsel ors, instructors in crafts and wa terfront directors. For men over 21, there is one request from a pri vate boy's camp in Northern Cal ifornia. Strictly for Men A strictly-for-men offer, but one which at this time is restricted to those with experience in the mer chant marine, navy or coast, is that made by the Military Sea Transportation service for this summer. MSTS (which is a federal agency, and civil service job) is offering what Mrs. Sylvester call ed "good pay" for nble-bodled sea men, quartermasters, oilers, fire men-water-tenders, junior engi neers and junior officers. Later on, she said, MSTS may lower its requirements and accept men with no previous experience. Other Offers And besides these scattered and varied opportunities for summer employment with an appeal to the outdoor man and woman, other job offers include requests for: Engineering aides and laborers on road construction projects throughout the Northwest, general office clerks and experienced tell ers in Portland banks, general of fice workers and stenographers, also in Portland, cannery workers in Milton-Freewater and Portland and workers at the Crater Lake National park hotel. Phi Theta to Sell 'Red and Whites' Red and whites, Phi Theta "mys tic" chosen for this year, will be sold on campus the day of student body elections, April 30.
