Two years ago Dr. Clifford Maser, dean of business und technology, started a plan for using the daily Wall Street Jour nal on a large scale for his major students. This was the first time this had ever been done, according to J. Leroy Thompson, New York, director of educational services for the national business daily. Thompson, who spoke to maj ors in the school here, said ap proximately 250 colleges have adopted the idea since it was started here.

In fact, each girl at OSC is entitled to three and one-fifth men, and discounting a few who are mar ried, that is a pretty good per centage. OSC records this fall show 5146 men to 1617 women, a bigger ratio of men to women than at any other major insti tution of the State System of Higher Education.
