People looking for jobs in Lawrence can be optimistic about employment prospects for the spring, according to the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and temporary service employers.
The Employment Outlook Survey indicated that 37 percent of local employers who were polled planned
to hire during the second quarter April, May and June. Manpower Inc., an international temporary help service, published the survey.
Mark Rau, manager of Manpower Temporary Services, 203 W. Eighth St., said that students looking for a summer job in Lawrence should start looking now, even if they won't be able to start until the end of the semester.
said
Bill Martin, Chamber of Commerce director of economic development, said, "There's no question that there are more jobs now than there were a year ago."
"The jobs will be there. That's what we're trying to indicate," Rau said.
ence of hiring by Sallie Mae, Entertel, the K-Mart Distribution Center, Aeroquip Corp. and other companies has already been felt in the Lawrence economy.
"We're seeing job growth here because existing companies are entrusted with new duties."
were yet authorized the spring job surge to the expansion of existing companies in Lawrence. The influ-
merchants, the construction industry, the finance/insurance/real estate sector, the service sector and educational institutions. The report said that other areas would remain stable.
Manpower predicts employment opportunities by non-durable goods manufacturers, wholesale and retail
The survey is one of the closest indicators of economic conditions and the employment picture for the quarter, Rau said.
non-farm industries from 1985 to 1986 were 200 more jobs in manufacturing and construction, 300 in retail, 100 in hospitality, 100 in services and 200 in government.
Martin said the biggest gains in
KU's increased enrollment and expansion of the school district were responsible for the increases in government hiring.

Twas the day of Bacchanalia, and all through class.
The Sigma Nu's and Kappa's wished time would soon pass.
Their glasses were large and it was quite clear.
They hoped that King Bacchus would fill them with beer.
The keys were nestled, all snug in some ice.
With visions of drinkers they soon would entice.
King Bacchus was ready, a party he would make.
