His Position
DOOR LOCK REPAIRED
Columbia, Oct. 3 — (UP) — James Freedman, of Kansas City, independent, non-fragrant man, was still president of the University of Missouri student body today, but he had no office in which to perform his duties. Albert K. Heckel, dean of men, said a mast master who served as vice president was "outsted" by his fraternity face, was "unauthorized" and was also against the rules of the student government.

The room in which the president of the student body has his office was locked. Last Friday, after the mass meeting, someone broke the lock and put on another to keep Freedman out. Then University workmen put in a cover door but wait, not until the keys until damage to the door is paid for.

In further commenting on the situation, Mr. Chandler says, "Every school board has been besieged with an army
It has been definitely noted that the number of teachers employed was cut down considerably last year, with a resulting decrease in the number of teachers required to fill vacancies. This lessened number of teachers to be hired has its influence on the amount of calls made by schools for teachers and said that it would be safe to assume
that from one-fourth to one-third of all vacancies occurring in Kansas have not been filled.
"Another thing that has made the situation particularly discouraging to our new candidates is the fact that the school boards have demanded experienced teachers for their veneration," which the bureau received, 110 of them asked for experienced teachers. Two hundred ninety-seven of the registrants of the bureau were inexperienced and 470 had taught. These figures show the large number of registrants in comparison with the calls received for teachers.
The drop from 154 appointments of last year to 132 of this year is not as large as might be expected considering financial conditions at the present time, Mr. Chandler remarks. Of the 132 teachers placed in 1987 and 1988, 72 of these

The bureau then helped by sending out credentials to places where it was certain a vacancy existed. One thousand, five hundred seventy-seven acts of credentials were sent out by the bureau to candidates, according to Mr. Chandler.
Owing to the necessarily small maintenance fund because of the economy program, no publicity by the bureau was possible last year.
