Problem of Providing Secretaries
HcrloMM One, Sayn Per
feoniK'l Head
The course in Y. M. C. A. science
and methods which is offered at
Willamette University la some
thing unliue. and is attracting the
attention of Y. M. C. A. education
al men throughout the country, de
clared Owen D. Pence, national
personnel secretary of the Y. M. C.
A. who visited in Salem for a few
hours yesterday.
The courses referred to by Mr.
Pence have been part of the Wil
lamette curriculum for the past
six years, being taught during that
time by C. A. Kells, secretary of
the local Y. .
Mr. Pence has been visiting the
summer schools of the Y. M. C. A.
In the west, coming to Salem from
Pacific Palisades, California, and
Uavinr yesterday for Seabeck.
Wmhlti7lnn tn attend the Rfhnol
there.
The work over which Mr. Pence
has supervision has to do with the
training of men for Y. M. C. A
secretarial positions, and because
f that he ia psneeiallv interested
in the work being done here.
which has helped to train a num
ber of outstanding men in the Y
work.
There are about 5200 secretar
ies in the Y. M. C. A. work at pres
ent, he said, with between 600
and 650 new men going into the
work each year. In order that
these men may have a specific
training for their work, the na
tional organization lias been mak
ing a study of the opportunities
offered them, and is trying to uni
fy these methods.
At present there are nine sum
mer 'schools for the training of
new Y.,,M. C. A. men being con
ducted throughout the. country.
with about 1200 men enrolled
in them. These schools offer two
weeks courses In Y. M. C. A. me
thods. Until recently each school
has been conducted separately,
but now; they are tinder the per
sonal supervision of the national
organization.
The use of adjacent colleges to
train YJ M. C. A. leaders, both
secretarial and lay, is the most
important method of training be
ing used! and is the field in which
Ialem has been pioneering.
A somewhat similar plan is be
ing worked out fn Seattle, where
new secretaries will be given posi
tions allowing them to spend some
time in University of Washington
classes, in special sociological
courses pertaining to their work,
Mr.v Pence declared.
