Summer Jobs Here to Be Few
by ROGER FULK
Kansas Staff Writer
Summer jobs in Douglass County will probably be hard to find. Barker, an interviewer at the Lawrence job Information Center.
Barker estimated that last year only one out of every seven students who applied for summer jobs was hired. This year the
center has sent out 750 letters to employers and has advertised in newspapers on cab ride and bus response. Barker said this was partly because it was even hard to jobs for full-time employees.
summer instead of increasing as it does in most cities.
Lawrence is an unusual city, Barker said, because the population decreases during the
Although the overall population decreases, there are approximately 8,000 students who remain in Lawrence to attend college or stay at Barker said a lot of these students would want jobs.
THE CENTER maintains a special file until the end of
Local DAR Encourages Development of Patriotism
BY JOHN PATRICK MAHER Kansan Staff Writer
The meetings of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) and patriotism," according to Mrs. Kendall, former local chager, report.
The Lawrence chapter of the DAR was established in 1886, and it is one of the largest women. Currently there are no University of Kansas women who are members of the DAR although there have been in the past.
Bremer said the objectives of the DAR were to encourage patriotism to educate and to inform about American heritage.
According to Bremer, the creed of the DAR is "To perpetrate the memory and the spirit of the men who have been killed in war." American independence; to
promote the development of an enlightened public opinion; and to foster patriotic citizenship."
She said the DAR supported elementary and secondary schools in Tennessee, South Dakota, and Oklahoma, and she had been a historical relics and a historical and genealogical library in Washington, the D.C., the national congress of the DAR.
Locally, the DAR has a "good citizen" program, for which outstanding senior high school students are offered a of a DAR test and the opinions of the students and faculty of their schools. Bremer said. The test required the students to know the DAR and concerned current events and American history.
She said the local DAR also sponsored an American history essay test for students in the fifth
through the eighth grades. Over 100 essays were entered in the last contest, the topic of which was selected by the national DAR
Chapters of the Sons of the American Revolution and the American Revolution, counterparts to the DAR, could be found in Topeka.
Membership in the DAR is held at 10 a.m. 18 years or older, and whose ancestors took part in the American Revolution, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
summer with information about applicants, including factors that might limit the type of job the applicant could take or the hours he would be available. Anything the center comes across that vaguely resembles a summer job is reserved for students. Barker
The local chapter has a genealogical library in the basement of the Douglas County School where it used to trace ancestry, she said.
Besides making referrals, the center tries to create jobs by talking to employers and trying to convince them to hire students. The teacher may also try to the applicant a referral, it tries to supply him with some ideas as to where to look for a job or where job openings might be in the near future.
"We're doing everything we can possibly do." Barker said. "If the students have any trouble, they would really like to hear them."
Judy Banks, youth coordinator of the Missouri State Department, asked she was optimistic about the summer job situation this year.
OF THE NEARLY 6,000 applicants the employment service handed last summer, 3,000 were able to find jobs.
Banks said there were two
campuses where he can get to a summer job. The applicant must be in school now and must be returning to school
Banks said that the Missouri Department of Employment Service accept jobs in persons living all over the state but that the jobs offered were all located in the city.
Most of the jobs the jobs in the government agencies are in government agencies are said, and $1.60 an hour is the rate of pay for these jobs. The jobs are paid.
The Kansas State Employment Service, which is also involved with jobs in the Kansas City area, has not received many job offers yet this year, but it has already received quite a few summer job applications, according to Rose Garrison, an employment service workers.
private businesses, though, and the pay is a little better in these jobs. Banks said.
DENT SAIED the many strikes which affected Kansas City last year resulted in few summer jobs. This year, she said, things could have been improved although there still will probably be too few jobs to go around.
The overall job outlook for Kai will probably be rather discouraging for a lot of students this summer, but they will try to find jobs elsewhere. They might discover, however, that bosses are just as hard to find
Bob McGill of the Colorado and students who wanted to work Colorado would probably get jobs in the tourist trade, if they are not.
Increased operating costs have forced Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. to seek a rate increase. If approved the increased charges to customers will amount to $14,783,000 in new revenue.
Megill said summer jobs
the school offered a
possibility of an out-of-state
student finding a job would be if he came to Colorado and started
working in the job.

Carter said that Southwestern Bell was also requesting an increase in intrastate long distance toll charges but that the proposal or a reduction of some charges would be direct-dialed long-distance calls.
CARTER SAID that one of the reasons that Southwest Bell sought the higher rates was that wages had increased 35 per cent in 1970, and that $48 million in 1970. He said a contract agreement that had been reached before the wage-price freeze went into effect in 1972. That meant of southwestern Bell's wages a three-year period.
taxes affecting the company had jumped 54 per cent from $25 million in 1964 to $39 million in 1970.
Construction expenditures had grown from $21 million in 1964 to $61 million in 1970, with a rise of about $20 million. Carter said, he also said, *Saint Louis*.

At the time of Pearson's financial success in the 40s and 50s, the University of KU's Association was trying to raise funds to build residence halls. Until this year, they were still under KU's enrollment was only 4,000 and the campus was located near town where students could rent a car.

To Entertain
Frosh Party
Pearson came up with the idea of larger residence walls, Wilson said, and also the idea of bonds of them through revenue bonds.
PEARSON DIED before the finished product of his ideas was completed. Plans for two large projects were approved by Sellaris Pearson and Joseph R, Pearson, were completed by his wife.
These scholarship halls,
completed in the early '50s,
housed 60 students each.
Most of them, however,
tightly pleased with the result.
"This is where Mr. Pearson was when I met him," Wilson said. "He came to me and said 'I put $219,000 down there and attend two scholarship halls to meet with people who are in a pianist plan won't work—too much money, too much capital house money.'"
The freshman class will end the year with a party from 8 p.m. to midnight Friday at the Red Dog Inn.
The party will feature continuous entertainment by two singers, a DJ and freshman and freshman class president, said Friday. The two were the first to attend.
"When Mrs. Pearson died, a trust went into effect over his properties. Income from oil and gas was given to other states went to his brothers
and sisters and to KU for the betterment of student housing," Wilson said.
"The world had been good to him and he was trying to pass it on." Wilson said.
Last year, when the trust funds became available, KU received $80.00. Wilson estimated the income from the estate at 110.000.
McLaughlin said the party was to give the freshmen a chance to celebrate the end of the year with a send-off for the summer.
Admission will be free to freshman class card holders and $1.50 for other freshmen.
Pearson left very few
employees. He spent
money, its use in the future was to be determined by need and by
participation in programs.
Two-thirds of the money, Wilson said, would be used for physical improvements and maintenance on the five landmarks; the third would be spent on library and cultural improvements.
"Mr. Pearson was a great believer in art," Wilson said, when he mentioned the need to be used on cultural improvements. He said this part of the money would be used to pay for equipment in an organized living unit."
HE SAID these funds would continue indefinitely, unless the oil wells ran dry.
KU'S CONTINUING gratitude to Pearson is inscribed in the lobby of Joseph R. Pearson Hall. He is a member of the Pearson family, a generous and loyal friend of the University of Kansas.
