Miss Jodais Employed iii 'Man's' Field
Some girls work part time
as secretaries while in col
lege. Others work as typists,
clerks or waitresses.
But when a girl doesn't
know typing or shorthand and
has become thoroughly . tired
of working in restaurants,
she has to use a combination
of determination and luck to
get a job that is, satisfying
to her.
Such a girl is Velta Jodais,
junior in Teachers College,
majoring in art.
When she was looking for
a Summer job after her first
year at t he University she
heard of a job opening with
the Soil Conservation Service

Releases

"To help high school stu
dents understand the impor
tance of further education is
the purpose of Builders new
press release service," ac
cording " to Larry Kilstrup,
new Builders president and
former publicity committee
chairman.
The press release service
was started to, in addition to
the above, familiarize Ne
braska high school students
with college life and the Uni
versity's (1) service and ed
ucational opportunities, (2)
activities, both on the colle
giate and high school level,
(3) social life and (4) daily
news events.
The service will be printed
by the University in a news
letter form and mailed di

papers once or twice monthly.
High school editors may
use the material either di
rectly as released, under a
special "college news"
column head or rewritten in
any matter.
Articles are written for the
service by members of the
publicity committee and. edi
ted and compiled by a spe
cial sub-committee headed by
Journalism School students
Ginger Frazier and Don Ferguson.

EASTMAN COLOR
little about drafting
But because she was so de
termined to get the, job, she
applied and had a iriendJ
teach her the night before the
application test what a ruling
pen was and how to use. it.
Dam Building
During the test she was
"quite nervous" but did' well
enough to get the job. 'Her
first week on the job was
spent reading books that ex
plained the building of dams.
The books didn't mean
much to Miss Jodais and
were rather confusing. She
did understand a few of the
structural terms because of
a few introductory courses to
architecture she had taken.
She said she feels her many
math courses in high school
helped her get the job as did
the courses that " she had
taken in art and architecture.
But she had never made an
inked engineering drawing in
her life.
Language Difficulty
The same determination
that drove her to apply and
get a job that she really
wanted has helped Miss Jo
dais progress from the day
she entered the sixth grade at
YoVk, able to speak very little
English.
She had studied only one
semester of English before
coming to the United States
as an immigrant. She was
born in Latvia and left there
for Germany when she was
six. Miss Jodais arrived with
her family in the United
States 10 years ago and moved
to York where her father was
employed on a farm.
She later moved to Lincoln
and enrolled in the 10th
grade in Lincoln High. Her
father is working now as a
carpenter for the University.
Enjoyable Job
She said she thoroughly en
joys her job as a draftsman
at which she works part-time
during school and full-time
during the summer.
"1 get a satisfaction out of
working toward a goal by
seeing something form with
my hands that someday will
emerge as a substantial
worthwhile and lasting thing,"
she said. .

26th year, sponsored collec

adds to the overall problem
of grass maintainance, he
added. v
"Our work consists of the
care of the grounds, including
the walks, grass, shrubbery
and trees." he explained. "In
the winter we do a lot of
pruning, as well as planting
trees and shrubs.
'"On some mornings during
the winter, it . is necessary
for the men to be on the
campus early in the morning
to get the walks cleared," he
noted.
. "We also do landscaping '
new areas," he said. "We
draw ilp the plans and carry
them out." ,
During the winter 26 men
work in the department, and
45 men are kept busy during
the summer, Billings ex
plained. "The men use a lot of ma
chinery such as tractors with
loaders or blades, power
lawn mowers, large whirl
wind mowers and power
sprayers," Billings said. ,

How do the instructors get
their supplies?
They come from a campus
"store" called West Stadium.
The-section which supplies
clerical materials is a Sta
tionery Store and another
store furnishes other com
monly needed supplies at the
University. Then there is a
Photo Lab where photos are
reproduced for University or
ganizations. The supplies are in West
Stadium, but docs the instruc
tor go in and buy just as if
it were a downtown store?
Not generally. Most times
the , departmental secretary
orders in large lots and keeps
supplies in the office. They
are given to instructors when
they need them.
The secretary writes a req
uisition (order form) signed
by herself and the head of
the department. This is sent
through campus mail and in
a day or two a delivcryman
from West Stadium brings
the needed supplies. .
They are then credited on
the departmental bill in the
Comptroller's Office and sub
tracted from the total money
allowed for the department's
use.
Furnishing supplies for the
University campus is a big
job and West Stadium does a
thriving business.
