800 University
Students Are
Seeking Work
Union Men Fear Influ of
Pupil Will Force Many
Men Out of Employ,
ntent.
Lincoln, Sept IS. (Special.)
More than 8X) students at the state
university must work to carry them
through the school year. This rep
resents approximately 10 per cent of
the university population.
This year, through the installation
of a university employment bureau
by the Lincoln Lions club, the uni
versity management for the first
time can get a "close up" of the
financial situation of students.
In other years it was possible to
approximate the working popula
tion, but this year the name and ad
dreses of the students are on file.
There is no way to determine
whether more students arc looking
for work this year than in past
years.
200 Get Jobs.
At the employment bureau it wa
stated that probably 200 jobs had
been found lor students, with hun
dreds haunting the offices, many de
claring that it work were not pro
duced they would be forced to go
back to the farms and the country
stores and other places from whence
they came. ,
A majority are looking for jobs
that will furnish them either board
or Qoom by waiting tables or tend
ing furnaces. Others, however, on
their application cards state that
they must receive salaries ranging
fit in $.0 to fW a month to carry
them through the school year.
Waiting tables for their more
fortunate brother students in fra
ternity house is reported to be one
of the boons of the poorer students,
A recent survey by the Lion club
of business hou.es in Lincoln osten
sibly found hundred of positions
open.
Unions Make Complaint.
However, according to informa
tion received at the bureau, many
of these alleged open pout urns have
proved to be "e want someone
else" or "we'll take your phone
uuuiber and call you when we want
you" job.
Almost in the shadow of the uni
versity employment bureau i Lin
coln's Labor Temple, where many
i iirmployed men are making their
headquarters, and the university em
ployment plan of the Lincoln iiicu
don't sit well on them.
A number of complaints have
been registered against the plan as
it is charged the opening of these
positions to student will leave, the
head of numerous households out of
employment during the winter.
