Sandy's S u p rem e Ice C ream Is Sandy M alo n e y's unique approach
to sum m er e m p lo ym e n t.

Pedalling her way to success
by Nathaniel Scott
W ith the help o f some friends, a
ten-speed bicycle, a home-made
trailer, a money changer, two me
dium size picnic coolers and a $25
vendor’s license, Sandy Maloney be
comes one o f Portland's latest busi
ness attractions— Sandy’s Supreme
Ice Cream.
M s. M alo n e y, a college student
aqd instructor o f swimming and be
ginners exercise at the dow ntow n
Y W C A , will soon become a familiar
sight to those around Portland State
U n iversity, the Lloyd C enter and
W aterfro n t Park as she pedals her
bicycle, rings her bells and hawks
her wares.
As an extra added treat for those
long, hot summer days, all o f
Sandy’s Supreme Ice Creams— cho
colate fudgsicles, orange creamsi-
cles, popsicles in a variety o f flavors
and vanilla ice cream sandwiches—
will be 50 cents each.
She said (hat she started her ice
cream vending business because
when she was a kid she always liked
the people who went through the
neighborhoods pedalling their bikes
and selling ice cream . A nd also,
“ because Portland needs something
like (his. I d o n ’ t remem ber seeing
any ice cream vendors lately who
were on bikes.”
Pedaling her bicycle five or ten
miles d aily w o n ’t prove too stren
uous, she said. “ During the summer
months bicycling is my prim ary
mode o f transportation. Besides,”
she added, “ you don’t have to wor
ry about parking.”
She is also into gardening— green
peppers, tomatoes, potatoes and on
ions as well as one variety o f grapes.
“ Last year I dehydrated more than
enough vegetables from my garden
to last me through the w inter,” she
said. She added that she will be de
hydrating her vegetables again this
year.
Ms. Maloney hopes that this, her
first business venture, will prove to
be a profitable one. And equally so,
she hopes to meet many new people,
gain regular customers, and, i f all
goes well, " I intend to get a couple
o f more bikes and make Sandy’s Su
preme Ice Cream a fu ll-tim e busi
ness.”

Mayor provides summer jobs
by Tracy M . Smith
U nlike any summer, the summer
o f '82 w ill be the first o f its kind.
The economy is in a recession, there
are very few jo b s, cuts in federal
benefits, and whites and blacks are
out o f w o rk. W hat sort o f impact
w ill this have on black youth in
terms o f summer em ploym ent?
M ore im p o rta n tly , what is the
Mayor o f Portland doing to address
this problem?
T o begin, the M a y o r has a
program entitled Summer Em ploy
ment for Teens. This program will
extend over an 8-week perio d, for
half-tim e em ploym ent. Youth will
work in the areas o f Public Parks,
Landscaping, Public W o rks, and
Public Agencies. As o f now, youth
can only work 160 hours but an ad
ditional KM) hours might be added.
Press Secretary to the M ayor, Ted
Johnson, gave information on addi
tional programs for the summer but
these jobs take place in Washington
and Clackam as Counties. C E T A
w ill also provide jobs for the
summer but there are eligibility re
quirem ents. Youth who apply for
C E T A jobs must prove that their
parents* or guardians* income falls
below the 70 per cent o f the lower
income status.
Ted Johnson says because o f the
lack o f funds the county is doing the
best it can to provide jobs. Also, the
City is pleased that they are able to
offer any jobs at all.
Johnson said the Mayor has taken
two trips overseas to explore the
possibility o f foreign industry in the
City. However, there is nothing def
inite. only positive signs. Also, the
M ayor is trying to encourage econo
mic diversification, in the hope that
new industry will bring business and
jobs into the city.
The M ayor foresees no change in
the im m ediate fu tu re in terms o f
jobs. H o w ever, Johnson says the
M ayo r has seen an increase in vol
unteerism. He also added that vol
unteerism may help people to get a
job quicker and be useful in writing
resumes.
W ith the summer fast approach
ing it is clear that the only program
the Mayor has that will be o f benefit
to teens is his summer program .
Even so, jobs arc limited and youth
are restricted in the num ber o f
hours they work.
