In" Planning for College Costs, ' a booklet specially prepared for New York Life, Sidney Sulkin, Education Editor of Changing Tunes, the Kiplinger Magazine, points out that higher education expenses will continue to spiral over the years, and he stresses the importance of preparing well in advance. Not a luxury, but a necessity. "Though the demand for edu cated workers is expected to in crease, tho competition for jobs will become more severe, too, writes Mr. Sulkin, underlining the necessity for education be yond high school, as well as the greater salary expectations and security which college graduates enjoy. Fortunately, however and despite growing classroom shortage and entrunce competi tion "any qualified student can find a suitable school to go to," and will go if parents plan ahead realistically. What about scholarships? Per haps your child will win one of those coveted and highly com petitive scholarships but don't count on it. Besides, most schol arships pay only a part of the total bill.
