Daily United Press Service
Sport news, always of the highest interest in the College student, comes in for its share of keeping Kanser readers up-to-date in that field. News of the college's athletic programs are often unfolding "dope" on outcomes, official standings of all teams, minute description of all University contests and results, and a list of colleges named of his favorite sport or contest. Reports of intramural sports also occupy much space on the sport page.
Daily appearance of a column known as the "Official University Bulletin" by members of the board, offers opportunities concerning club meetings, special class schedules, and various amenities of Hill activities. Thus acting as the official "bulletin board" this column holds an unusually large share in the school life of all Mount Oread.

The rushing and pledging rules according to the plans made by the Pan-Hellenic College will be allowed in any fraternity house between August 15 and the first day of rush week.

With only nine of the student applicants for work placed in the month of September out of 279 seeking work, the student found that working was one of the most serious employment situations in its history. Of the nine persons placed this month five have taken temporary jobs, the remainder having obtained a permanent position.
Sam Carter, secretary of the Y.M.C.A. and director of the bursar, expressed satisfaction placing all of the students applying thus far. The bursar, which operates the year round, has at present received 279 bursars from 13 different bursar boards the bureau has 28 permanent and 61 temporary jobs listed. Of those, 26 of the permanent jobs have been taken and 50 have been filled.
Further complicating the situation is the fact that a great many of the students who were at the University last fall had to spend their remaining year return this fall. Some of these jobs may be available later in the year. Also owing to the influence of technology, it will be doing their own old jobs where they-come have they been hiring students. Applicants to date indicate that in the number of applications this year as compared to last when the bureau secured between $30,000 and $55,000 in
