Teachers colleges, busi ness colleges and vocational schools will absorb 140 graduates from the school surveyed, all in towns of ap proximately 3,000. Clerical Jobs in grocery «tores, fill ing stations, shoe stares, eta., will be tilled by 236 graduates. This total Includes delivery boys and "handy men," most of whom serve part time tn a clerical oapacity. Thirty-one salesmen also received the sheep skins this year. The tatter includes house-to-house canvassers. Students numbering 171 will attend college or university the first year, with a large percentage failing to return the second year. Lack of in dustrial opportunity has Increased college enrollment. A total of 162 will remain at home without finding work. This figure includes girl grad- I uates not planning to work. Agriculture will claim 190 grad uates, many of whom are returning home to work. Included also are youths who are going to work on a farm for the first time. Seventy seven are listed under a miscellane ous heading, including truck driv ers, CCC enrollers, mechanics, wait resses and odd-job workers. what this reason could have been.
