HORNBROOK College Plans By KATHERINE CHAPMAN Hornbrook - The proposed Siskiyou County Junior col lege was the subject of a spe cial meeting held Wednesday evening at the Grange hall. Harry Beck of Mt. Shasta, administrative assistant of the college board, explained the aim and 'purpose of the Junior college system in the state, and pointed out the rea sons for the need of such a school in Siskiyou county. Using a painting of -the ar tists' conception of the pro posed college, he described the physical plant. As planned now, the college will be built for an initial enrollment of 500 students, but will accom modate up to twice that num ber without further addition to the plant. It is to be located on a plot of ground west of the south end of Weed, off the old county road. He explained that a school bond in . California can ' be floated only for an amount not to exceed $2,500,000. The estimated cost of the proposed college is about $2,234,000. Tax cost to the public will amount to 39 cents per $100. assessed value of property for the first year, and as the bonds are retired the tax will decrease.' Prior to assuming his pres ent position.

Bennett K. - I want to be a philosopher. Mr. L. K. - We won't sup port him in that. Bennett K. - I am 18 and planning to enter college in the fall. My parents have al ways wanted me to be an engineer and I always went along with them on it - until recently. After reading several books on the subject I became very interested in philosophy. I think it is unusual for a boy of my age with no training to be able to understand as much about; these books as I feel I do. I would like to be a philos opher, but if I can't I would like to teach the subject. The school program is en tirely different for prospec tive engineers than it is for the regular liberal arts stu dents, so I must make my choice and stick to it. My par ents say they don't want even to help me through college if I major in philosophy. . Mr. L. K. - We don't know how Ben got this crazy no tion into his head, but we're pretty sure it will go the way of all crazy notions if he just gives it time. The trouble is that he may realize too late how foolish he has been. We have given Ben a lot of advantages only by sacri ficing our own interests. Na turally, we aren't looking for any return. All we want is that he do the best thing in his own interest. We want him to be able to make a de cent living. He isn't the kind of euv who likes to walk around in baggy pants spout ing philosophy. He likes good clothes, new cars and lots of - - 1 ' 1 A I 1 money in nis pocisei wueii ne goes out on a date. If Ben wants to be a phil osopher, I say go ahead -start now, but don't expect help. The Council: Mr. L. K. Is Nlew! ST 1 rwMTigr'-T7-" ""' " i i I FREAK ACCIDENT Dotted line shows path of automobile, its driver unconscious at the wheel, which struck another car (right) in Miami, Fla., zoomed along pedestrian walkaway between buildings to swimming pool, hit the pool curb and bounced into the air, sailing over the heads of swimmers, and plunged into the water. Three persons at the pool were injured. far too rigid in what he feels is his concern for Ben's best interest. Ben's "notion" may or may not be a crazy one. It is impossible to tell at this stage. If he is discouraged before he has put the idea to any sort of test, Ben will not be able to enter any of his studies with the necessary en thusiasm. The fact that up until now Ben has shown a keen inter est in clothes, cars and money in his wallet is no indication that he wouldn't later enjoy life best in baggy pants. He might even find a way of wearing good ciotnes ana beine a philosopher at the same time - if this is what he really wants. Young people do need guidance and sometimes di rection in choosing careers, but insistence is neither guid ance nor direction. Mr. L. K. should try to enter into Ben's way of looking at things if he wants to be of real help. A flat no closes the subject in stead of opening it. Most colleges give their students a year or two be fore making a definite choice of a major. Ben should avail himself of this opportunity. He should take some courses that lead to the engineering degree and some in the phil osophy department, and try to give both studies his full interest. It is quite possible that his teachers will help him arrive at a decision by giving him some encouragement or words of warning about his poten tial abilities. Even if he loses a year or so by experimenting with, his program, it will be worthwhile for Ben to find what he. really wants and to enter that field wholeheart edly.
