"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.

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."
