... For Student Union
Twelve men quitting their jobs
in one day that's the story of
the employment situation in the
Student Union. The Union needs
men, women, or young students
but badly.
Five men went into service
Tuesday, and that was bad
enough. Then there's yesterday.
Seven men student employees,
all from the Corn Crib, quit their
jobs to go into the air corps.
All of which leaves 12 jobs
open. Unless these jobs can be
filled, Union officials pointed
out, "service will have to be re
duced proportionately."
' The Union gives 14 meals for
14 hours of work with 30 cents
per hour for overtime. To apply,
students should see Miss Inez
White, Union food director.
