Hercules Powder Company Seeks Student Labor
Marvin Goebel, Men's Employment Bureau secretary, announced Thursday that he has received employment application blanks from Hercules Powder company representatives. Goebel urges all students interested in work at the plant to fill out the blanks at his office at once.
The bureau secretary pointed out that students should not confuse the powder company's work with positions now open under the firm constructing the plant. A majority of the positions offered by Hercules will not be available before this fall or early winter, he said. However, there will probably be a small amount of employment available this summer.
The company will keep in touch with all registrants during the summer months, and students will be informed at once when employment is available.
Company officials and University authorities are at present cooperating in an attempt to arrange work and school schedules so that a maximum amount of student labor can be employed next year during the school months. No definit plan has as yet been reached, although shortened shifts are a possibility.
June 1 Civil Service Closing Date
The United States Civil Service Commission gives notice that the closing date for receipt of applications from men for Junior Chemist, under Announcement No. 219, will be June 1, 1942. The Commission will continue to receive applications from women for these positions until the needs of the service have been met. All applications must be filed with the Commission's Washington, D.C. office.
A complete record of Kent State University housing facilities is being made by sociology students to be forwarded to the war department for use in case of an emergency.
Employees Ask Wage Increase
Employees of the University department of buildings and grounds submitted a petition to Chancellor Deane W. Malott Tuesday asking for an increase in wages.
Presumably, the employees are asking for a general wage increase of 15 per cent and medical care in case of occupational accidents, although no official statement was made by the Chancellor's office. Some wage increases have been given in other departments.
According to a statement from the Chancellor's office, the difficulty in making wage increases lies in this: appropriations for the University were made by the legislature last January; the only other source of funds is the fees paid by students; since enrollment has dropped more and more each semester, and will probably continue to drop for some time to come, the income from this source has decreased; therefore, operating on a limited budget, already set, there is no allowance for increased expenditures.
Vocational Counsel To Freshman Women
Counseling of freshman women will be placed on a vocational basis next year, Barbara Reber, chairman of the Federation of Women Counselors, announced yesterday.
Thirty main counselors and several assistants will be chosen from women in specific vocational fields, eliminating sophomore counselors.
Next fall meetings will be held the first week of school every afternoon at 4:30 in the Memorial Union building to enable the counselor to become acquainted with freshman women.
The plan for next year is unique in its approach to counseling through vocations, having been started three or four years ago by Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women. The women's counseling is sponsored by Mortar Board, honorary society for senior women.
