This grant will enable Mrs. Marshal to complete the next year's studies to obtain her bhch elor of arts degree and her teach ing certificate. Mrs. Helen Little, Central Point, was awarded the local vo cational grant for 1957, covering tuition for the summer and fall terms at SOC whereshe is study ing to prepare herself for teach ing. Both these women had one year of college before their mar riage and had planned to teach.

Six Jackson county women have been given vocational grants to refrain themselves for employment since 1954 when the first S250 grant was offered by Medford Altrusa club. The funds to support this project have been earned by publishing yearly an Altrusa place mat, which has on it a recreational map of Jackson county with the business ad dresses of more than 100 inter ested local firms. This mat is a gift to tourists, and is also given away, 10,000 copies each year, to county ogranizations, church es, granges and clubs to use at large dinners or in any other way desired. Any group, restaurant, motel or hotel can obtain these mats free of charge by calling Mrs. Anne Finley, SPring 2-5091; Mrs. Frances Grant, SPring 2-2563 or Mrs. Maude Codding, SPring 2-4890. Mrs. Finley states, that the new mats printed locally, will be off the press early next week. Al trusa club, a classified service club for business executives and professional women, points out that the firms who have sponsor ed this place mat during the last four years, have made it possible for six older women to retrain themselves for teaching, nursing and business. Because of the loc al interest, three women have re ceived Founders' fund grants from the international office of Altrusa, amounting to $750, in addition to the local fund. Other national projects of Al trusa are the grants-in-aid given to Latin American women and Asian women who are doing graduate work in American Uni versities and colleges.
