Offers Variety U.S. Women One-fifth of them work in the capital; the rest, elsewhere in the country By far the greatest total is employed as clerical or re lated workers. But women can be found In all Civil Serv ice grades, including a few in the super-grades of 16 through 18 administrative posts paying from $12,770 to $17,500 a year, About 90 per cent of the more than two million fed eral jobs in the country are under Civil Service. This means that employment condi tions and earnings for gov ernment workers are based on a uniform system of job grades and salaries. Women have had equal opportunity with men in federal employ ment since 1919 when most of the entrance examinations were opened to them. But other than clerical jobs for women have increased since 1939. They have made their greatest gains as: counlants, chemists, drafts men, economists, editorial or information specialists, legal documents examiners, math ematicians, medical technici ans, nurses and statisticians. Their status has changed least in higher positions of admin istrators, doctors, lawyers and engineers. . The lowest salary for a Civil Service grade 1 clerical job Is $2,960 a year. The av erage salary for women was found to be in the grade 4 class, or $3,775 a year, com pared with grade 6 and $4,490 a year for men. The bureau's study showed that in 1954 only 15 per cent of the government's women were placed in higher posi tions while 85 per cent held clerical or stenographic jobs.

Mrs. Taylor is again enrolled at the school, taking summer courses. Recalling her days as an undergraduate, Mrs. Taylor says that there were many student activities. There was no gymnasium, so the basket ball team used the old armory. They played their first game with Oregon State college - and won. The coaches, volun teers from the teaching staff, were psychology and geology instructors. The first classes ever given at Southern Oregon college were summer session classes in 1926, with 206 students en rolled. By fall, the enrollment had gone up to 273. Now it is at the 1250 mark. J. A. Churchill was president of the college, and Mrs. Taylor re calls that the present admin istration building was named for him. Original members of the faculty still with the college are Dr. Arthur S. Taylor, Miss Marian Ady and Bertha Stephens. Dr. Taylor reports that there was no tenure or academic rank, and that every instructor taught 12 months out of every year. Sometimes in the sommer an instructor sat around with nothing to teach, but he was there. Mrs. Taylor says that every one lived off campus in those days, as there were no dormi tories. There was no going home every week end either, because the buses made fewer trips to fewer places and al most everyone traveled by train.
