Withcy, dean of students at Willamette university, advised at a dinner of Medford Methodist men at the First Methodist church last light. Dr. Withey spoke on the sub ject "The Challenge of College Youth Today." Concerning characteristics of college students he said that they have a good sense of humor, that they want to be loved nr appre ciated, that they have much en thusiasm, that they are learning the art of self-discipline, that they all seek a vocation and that they are looking for a faith in which to believe. "Something Sorious" Behind the humor of college youth is usually something ser ious, Dr. Withcy declared. They ma;- be trying to make a protest about something, give outlet to pent up feelings or to express affection. Youth should.be en couraged to see the funny side of life to prevent them from be ing crushed later, he said. He spoke of the need to. channel youth's enthusiasm. Saying that college young people are "reluctant pagans," Dr. Withey brought out that the religious program is not ade quate. So much care has been exercised about teaching reli gion in connection with schools that it has been left out entirely or students have been led to feel that they can take it or leave it. The speaker said that destruc tion of religion brings a sense of insecurity and destroys the sense of right and wrong. This breeds a philosophy of exped iency, such as communism. "We are reaping the results of our i 13,959 Cows Tested For Bangs Disease Out of 13,959 cows tested for Bang's disease in Jackson county last year, 2.1 per cent were "re actors," according to figures re leased today by the state de partment of agriculture. The per centage of reactors in Josephine county, where 9,263 cows were tested, was only 1.7 per cent. Testing was carried on in ev ery county of the state, with 13 counties showing only one per cent or less of reactors. Curry county, with less than two-tenths of one per cent reactors, leads the entire state. In releasing the figures. M. E. Knickerbocker, chief of the di vision of animal industry of the state department of agriculture, said that about lu.uuu more cat tle were tested last year than in 1948, but that the 1948 re actors were one-fourth of one per cent under the 1949 figure. The percentage for the state as a whole is 2.2 and Knickerbocker says that Is still an impressive rating. Garbage Bowl Football Game Held At Seattle Seattle (U.R) Titles for bowl games just about reached the end of the line here when two Uni versity of Washington fraterni ties battled for possession of the intra-mural football trophy. The Phi Gamma Delta team defeated Sigma Alpha Epsilon 6-0 in a game played on a filled in portion of the city dump just off the campus. The contest goes into the rec ord books as the first annual Gar bage Bowl game. 'Baby Sitting' a Must Attorney General Says Nashville, Tenn. (U.PJ Atty. Gen. J. Carlton Loser went into the law books to settle the prob lem of people who leave their children at home without baby sitters. "It is a misdemeanor," Loser said, quoting from public acts, chapter 184, "to lock a child in a house . . . and therefore to leave such child unattended so that such child may not escape from the house in case of fire or oth er calamity." Conviction carries a penaltv of from $5 to $50. The statute 'has never been invoked. failure in our religious educa tion." Dr. Withey asserted. What makes a civilization great, he declared, is a challenge, how the challenge is met and how it is solved. He said that one challenge is often over looked young people.

To attract and keep good people, we've made telephone jobs stack up with the best. Here are some of their features: Good Wages: Fully- experienced employees who re ceive the top rates earned the following in 1949: (These are actual earnings based upon 1949 income figures reported to the U. S. Bureau of Internal Revenue.) Average top rate employee earnings 1949. ..weekly Switchboard Operating Employees . $57.50 Craftsmen: Installers, Linemen, Equipment 07 aq Maintenance Men, Cable Splicers, etc. . Of.Uo The average for all employees, including trainees and many with only short experience was: Switch board Operating Employees, $49.90 a week . . . Crafts men, $70.66. (These figures are based on weekly average earnings reported to the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the last four months of 1949.) Wage increases: Regular progression increases take beginners from the trainee period to top rates in eight years. Last year, some 46.000 non-management tele phone people received progression wage increases that's about three out of four. Benefit plan: It's one of the nation's oldest and finest plans for pensions and protection against sickness and accidents. Today the minimum pension is $100 a month, at age 65, including social security. Working Conditions: Clean, pleasant surroundings in an essential service ... a 40 hour week, or less . . . paid vacations and holidays . . . these are just a few of the items that make conditions enviable in the telephone business. Opportunity and security: Telephone work is the kind a person can count on . . . twelve months a year. Our employees have doubled in number in ten years. There's always opportunity to get someplace in the business. Of all the people working for us in 1939, in non-management jobs and who are still with us, a full third have been promoted to management. Perhaps the best eiidence of the quality of telephone jobs is that plenty of good people hate kept coming into the sen ice and they stay a long time. You are probably acquainted u ith people u bo u ork for Pacific Telephone. Sext time you see them u by not ask how they feel about their jobs. The FacjfLc Telephone ) and Telegraph Company )
