Duckling counseling petitions
j; o now available at the YWCA of
fice in Geilinger.
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.
The Duckling Counseling pro
g am will be explained by co-chair
r en Ann Blackwell and Bobbette
C ’more, at the YWCA sophomore
dessert at the Sigma Kappa house.
Tuesday, April 29. Petitions will be
a ; ailable at the dessert.

Bobbette Gilmore at Carson hall.
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.
