JPottp "You have such an interesting looking desk," remarked a woman who brought in a news item a few weeks ago. Frankly, the rest of the newsroom gang don't make such kind remarks about the way our desk looks, but every day the mail brings ia great stacks of material, much of which is so interesting we juafe can't bear to throw it in the waste basket. It stacks up, whil y hopefully turn it over every now and then trying to find time 1 cull, quote and re-write. r O Too, there's the clipping file which bulges with stories, anss dotes, facts and figures. Rummaging around yesterday we cajwa upon a little United Press clipping which said that "wetdi bells aren't breaking up that old college gang." Which we already knew, just having been through the fall white satin rush. Coltegj students are getting married in droves. But for those who like specific facts, Mrs. Alice Leopold, sistant to the Secretary of Labor for Women's Affairs, reports tbeg more than one-fourth of all college women out of their "a9" are married. The Bureau of Census figures for 1956 showl feeA 30 per cent of all men college students, and almost 12 pee temak of all women college students are married. Maybe pappy and Potpourri helped to establish a tresoS. STcob we got njarried while still in college. The dean of wom iliSft't approve, and the families fussed, but we went right ahead anxA gcf married, anyhow. Dire things were predicted, but nons c tiaem happened. Except one Potpourri didn't ever get a college Agr8. Just five subject hours we lack. But we haven't give v &g3. Like almost every commencement speaker says, fcieg4isjs doesn't cease with high school or college, and Potpsi S learned a lot through the newspaper profession and otke sw-f&c This week we're going to enroll in Warren Wolf's Art tion course which is one of the adult education classas "nsBcg offered this fall through the Medford public scfcool systeasa. Wolf and Potpourri have already had some heated iise8?, and now we're going to take notebook in hand and sit asorf teaa to Mr. Wolf. One of Pal Peg's recent clippings from the Denvr Jv fe$ an AP article by Dorothy Roe which said that most of tWs gifiss packing up their sweaters and skirts for college this fall Tf ill ew? up by working out of the home, whether they want to or loo!?. In fact, Miss Roe says that most college girls can look erval to at least 25 years of paid work outside the home after grS-.a-tion. And Miss Roe thinks vomen aren't particularly happy at tfera prospect. The writer took her information from a new 400-b book "Womanpower" prepared after two years of research tfcy tJa National Manpower (?) Council and presented to President Iisaa hower. "Now, at least nine out of every ten women are likely to work outside the home in the course of their lives. Women who reached adulthood around the turn . of the century participated in paid employment, on the average, for 11 years in the course of their lives. Those who reached adulthood just before World War II re likely, on the average, to work over 20 years. Today's shool girls may spend 25 years or more in work outside the home." The article ended with quotations from H. M..Overley, per sonnel supervisor of the Atlantic Refining company, Philadelphia, who believed that shorthand and typing should be a part of every young woman's college course. "The sensible girl can get a start in almost any field that appeals to her if only she can transcribe shorthand dictation at about 30 words a minute and can type witn reasonable accuracy and speed," says the supervisor. o Some facts of international life were spelled out Monday night when Dr. Haridas Muzumdar talked for Siskiyou Knife and Fork in Ashland. Dr. Muzumdar, Iowa college professor who has just ended a three months' trip around the world, says the common . people like and still trust the United States, but that their leaders who are vocal and form governmental policies don't. ' Dr. Muzumdar says that because of one thing and another, our good will abroad is declining and we'd better do something about it. He thinks it's not only up to the government, but to everyone, to reverse this trend. He thinks Americans traveling abroad should mix more with the ordinary people" of the lands they visit, and quit staying in the best hotels and dining with fellow Americans. When Dr. Muzumdar travels he does both, he talks with the man on the street and with the heads of state many of whom he has known for years. He talked to Ireland's DeValera, met with political leaders in Germany and in Istanbul, spent some time with India's Nehru (India is Dr. Muzumdar's native land) and while he was unable to talk with Egypt's Nasser, he did have a conference with five leaders of the Arab league. This Indian-turned-American was very surprised to find that instead of these five men being ardent followers of the Islamic faith, that three of the five were Christians, one said to be a devout Roman Catholic. Described as the secretary-general of the Arab league, Dr. Muzumdar reported him to be a sweet, seem ingly calm and earnest man who regretted very much that he had to follow the course laid down by the Arab league, but de claring that he had no choice if he was to promote the best inter ests of the Arab peoples. But Dr. Muzumdar's talk was not all serious and one or two anecdotes brought laughter. Such as the sign he saw in Manila and which read: "Modern Beauty Salon and Vulcanizing Shop."
