Camp jobs made available
By KELLY SCOTT
If you're looking for a summer job, those summers you spent at camp could prove valuable.
The Office of Student Financial Aid has two loosleaf binders of mailings from camps all around the country seeking students as counselors, cooks and craft instructors.
Rita Schrag, assistant to the director of Student Financial Aid, says that there are jobs available at summer camps, but that students must pursue them on their own.
"They don't recruit on campus," Schragg said Friday. "In some cases an interviewer for a certain camp will come to Lawrence to invite a person who has already applied."
One problem KU students may find in looking for summer camp jobs is finding a camp that has a season that ends before KU's 1978 fall semester. Classes begin in September. Nearly every camp in the notebooks listed its season as running into September.
FOR MANY summer campers, Schragg said, colleges are a good source of inexpensive labor. Many college students want to work outdoors in the summer, she said, and they probably have to leave.
Almost every camp requests some kind of kit
camper as a prequirement to a counseling lot.
Many camps require that the applicant have achieved a Counselor in Training certificate, the standard designation many campers use to denote minimum counseling experience.
Campfire Girls, Inc., and Girl Scouts of America are the two organizations that have sent the most leaflets to financial aid looking for employees.
Campfire Girls' pay scale ranges from $400 for a summer's work as an assistant riding instructor to more than $1,000 for a summer as an assistant camp director.
"HARD WORK long hours ... 50-90
pay is what Campfire girls tells us
Both organizations stressed the rewards of working with children in scouting, but didn't require that applicants be a former Girl Scout or Campfire Girl.
It's possible to get a job in a camp without camping experience if you have a specialized skill, such as horsemanship or swimming. Nearly all camps require at least two years of training depending on the position, senior lifesaving and water safety instruction certification.
Girl Scout camps salaries are a little higher than Campfire Girl's salaries, but Girl Scouts staffers must pay a small room and board fee on a daily basis.
POSITIONS in Yellowstone National Park are also available. Hamilton Stores, Inc., a small chain of general stores and hardware stores, dishwashers and custodians. Employees pay $4.25 for room and board each day. Salaries start at $1.75 an hour and the company says that the lowest wage earner could make $6.25 a month a summer period from June to September.
The park administration is looking for station attendants who are paid $2.10 an hour. The park operates on a 48-hour work week.
Camp Stanley, a weight-reducing camp to teenage girls in Hurleyville, N.Y., has a difference of $10,000.
"We prefer that our staff also have a weight problem, so that they can participate enthusiastically in all camp activities," the Camp Stanley brochure said.
If the Lawrence area appeals to students.
IF TRAVEL is what you're looking for, Schramp recommended that students consult the Directory of Overseas Summer Jobs. It's available alone with the Summer Program and works at the United States at the financial aid office and the reference desk in Watson Library.
summer jobs are available at Lake Perry summer camp.
Only 20 of the 218 are expected to begin the medical school classes in July because they will be eligible for a full year.
Fifty-one Kansas counties will be represented by the 218 students accepted for this year's medical school class at the KU Medical Center.
A total of 947 persons, 728 males and 219 females, applied for positions in the class. The largest number of women in the history School of Medicine, 66 were accented.
KU hunts surgeon replacements
Of the 218, 202 are Kansas residents, according to a report issued this week by the Med Center. The 16 nonresidents are from California, Colorado, Missouri, Hawaii, Arizona, Nebraska, New York and British Columbia.
Thus, 25 per cent of the female applicants were accepted, compared with 22 per cent of the male applicants.
Med Class from state
Steps are being taken to resume heart surgery at the KU Medical Center as soon as possible, Chancellor Archie R. Dykes said yesterday.
Dykes said the Med Center's surgery department was already looking for heart surgeons who could work on an interim procedure. He later searched for permanent staff surgeons.
A TOTAL OF 153 undergraduate students who are attending or who have attended 18 Kansas colleges and universities were acclaimed.
the nation for a qualified heart surgeon and heart surgery team.
Dr. Martin Wollman, director of student health services at Watkins Memorial Hospital, said that although the number of student traps is influenza viruses hadn't hit epidemic levels.
The new surgeons are needed because of the resignations last week of Robert L. Reis and Hamner Hannah III. The two heart surgeons resigned after Dykes announced that the heart surgery section, closed since 1985, would be reopened. Dykes made his announcement on Friday at City Hospital clearing the section of alleged unsafe conditions was released.
"The University of Kansas Medical Center will continue to provide a high quality cardiothoracic surgery program as an integral part of health care education and service programs," he said.
If misery loves company, then University of Kansas students with a cold or influenza should be happy to know that they have plenty of company.
The highest number of accepted students were from the state's most populous counties, Johnson County, second highest in population, had 46 accepted students. The third highest in population, had 27; and Douglas County, sixth in population, had 19 accepted students.

Dykes said he didn't know how soon the Med Center would resume open heart surgery.

proportions, there had been a definite increase.
Quarterly figures showing the number of students treated aren't in yet, Wollman said, but the apparent increase in the staff's daily work load reflects the change.
On the four parts of the Medical College Admissions Test, the average scores of the group were above 68 per cent of those who took the test in verbal ability, 67 per cent in quantitative ability, 64 per cent in general information and 72 per cent in science.

"We can't even say if the worst is over," Wollman said. "It's really a day-to-day thing. It has not abated yet, and the number of cases may still be on the upward."
Students who took the free vaccinations against influenza viruses last fall should have been helped here, he said, but the flu virus won't still affect many students.
Wollman said that complications included extremely high temperature, middle-ear injury and infection.
Wollman said many students didn't come to Watkins unless they felt really sick. Body temperatures above 103 degrees that wouldn't go down, muscle aches, a dry cough and sudden illness in general brought some students in, he said.
FROM THREE to seven students a day are hospitalized, he said, and the length of hospitalization varies, depending on the illness. Fluenza virus, from 24 hours to four, or five, days.
"Most people get over it rapidly," he said,
"and many prefer to stay at home. We are
sometimes likely to give hospitalization to students without a family setting."
NATIONAL STATISTICS from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare and the Center for Disease Control show that flu cases have increased somewhat over last year, but haven't approached epidemic stage.
Wollman said that although there were several hundred of viruses responsible for the flu there was one thing recommended to help combat spread of the viruses.
"Because the viruses are spread so easily when a person sneezes or coughs, the mouth and nose should be covered," he said. "This does not totally prevent the spread of viruses, but it does reduce their spread significantly."
