June Graduates
From all Indications the job hunting honeymoon for
college graduates is fast drawing to a close, ine laDor de
partment's bureau of employment security recently warned
college and high school June graduates that they face the
roughest competition for jobs since the early 1940's.
Emnlovera have already hung out the warning sign
for some 1,750,000 persons who will be leaving school at
the end of the present term. The sign says that jobs will
be harder to find, pay will be less attractive and the cnoice
rf work will be narrower.
Why? Here, in brief, are the reasons. Competition will
. J 11.. I JL. T 4S . A,,
De iar Keener aue xo ine increase in uie uumuer giauu
ates. There have been over a million persons graduated
from colleges alone since 1944, with each year showing a
marked increase. 1950 is expected to show at least a six
per cent increase over last year.
Another reason is that industry is slowing down its
hiring of new men with many fields already overcrowded.
The fields which 1950 graduates will find hardest to crack
will be engineering, chemistry, physics, newspaper report
ing in metropolitan areas, high school teaching, personnel
work, accounting, law and general business training.
Prospective graduates find it hard to take the advice
of college placement bureau officers to set their sights
lower and understandably so. The average graduate
probably has an investment of aproximately $15,000 to
protect. He has invested somewhere in the neighborhood
of $5,000 in his scholing during the past four years, and
he could have been making rougmy qz,ouu a year naa ne
not been in school.
On the other hand, undergraduates still investing time
and money can't afford to stop. The future is iar Diacicer

xnands trained specialists.
There is a brighter side to this picture, however. There
w still cood oDeniners in the following fields: medicine,
nursing, grade school teaching, dietetics, social working and
technically-trained advertising work and sales.
Future graduates will have to realize that a diploma
is no logger the sole key to job-finding success. They will
be competing not only among themselves, but also with
experienced persons now on the unemployment rolls.
The best advice is not to lower your sights too quickly,
but rather to get out and hustle and sell yourself. Money
is indeed an important factor when it comes to scanning
the want ad sections, but no less iiaportant is an inventory
of personal likes and dislikes and the long-range advantages
offered by various positions. The Iowa State Daily.

Ttion an SS students of whom the University can
feel more than a little proud. They are individuals who
iiaw come to Nebraska and have proven themselves schoias
tifflllv worthv of ioinine'the ranks of Phi Beta Kappa.
They are individuals who have shown that college students
rfnn't alwavs deserve the popular conception of being con
cerned only with fun and games. They're out to make
something of themselves, and it looks as though they re
well on the way to their goal. PBK's aren't geniuses; they
are students who have worked hard for their grades and
who deserve this recognition for their splendid efforts.
Five senior music students will appear with the Uni
versity Symphony orchestra in a program of classical
music Sunday in the Union ballroom. These students were
chosen by members of the senior class of the school of
music to perform in the annual program. William Elliott,
Mary Barton, Aleta Snell, Calvin Gloor and Jeanette Dolezal
need no introduction; their performances have been ap
plauded many times by University audiences since they
have been enrolled in the school of music. We welcome
the opportunity to hear them again in the Sunday program,
Students will be able to share in the thirty-seventh
annual Nebraska history teachers convention when Dr.
John D. Hicks addresses the opening convocation at 11 a. m.
Friday In the Union ballroom. The University is well ac
quainted with Dr. Hicks through his connection with the
school from 1928 to 1932. He served at Nebraska as chair
man of the history department and as dean of the College
and Arts and Sciences. But his fame has extended far
beyond Nebraska borders. He has been chairman of the
University of Wisconsin history department and is now
Graduate dean at the Umversity of California. Teaching
at numerous summer scnools, ur. Micks has also delivered
lectures at Washington and Hawaii Universities. His work
lias not been confined merely to teaching, for he has written
several books, among them "The Populist Revolt" and
one of the history texts most widely used in American
colleges. University students and faculty members extend
a hearty welcome to Dr. Hicks as he returns to the Ne
braska campus and enables us to hear his pertinent address,
''American Foreign Policy in Perspective."
An age 6ld problem faces students at the close of every
semester what to do with text books which professors
have decided not to use the following semester. Students
often accept the 25 cents offered for a $4.50 text book
just to get rid of it A more worthy fate for the book
than the pulp mill or an old attic is offered in the book
collection now in prgress, which is being sponsored by the
campus religious houses. A goal of one ton of books has
been set for collection by June to be sent to students in
Europe. btudents in devastated countries will be more
than glad to get your old psych book, and they will get
much more out of it than your attic.
Connecticut university fraternities are taking a big

a feeling of
this writer
and the authors of the article in
the humor magazine. This is not
true. On the contraray, we're
pretty good friends. We like a
joke as well as anyone even
when it Is played on us. and at
tins point we d like to assure you
that the attempt on the part of
this column to discredit the sev
eral persons responsible was
slightly short of miserable. It will
not happen again.
For the past few years, men
have had to console themselves
with fashions that the women
have been flashing in their faces.
Not that the new styles are bad,
as a matter of fact we like them,
but when the trend starts to
overlap to the man's territory
it's time to crow a little.
There was a time when we
can remember how the women
prided themselves on their long
hair which flattered their heads
and shoulders. Now we see that a
good many of the gals are com
peting to see who can become
the baldest by chopping off
great quantities and in most
cases great hunks of their once
priceless hair. In order to do
this, ever increasing numbers of
the girls have been crowding
men out of the barber shops in
order to give their heads the
masculine touch.
It's not so bad when man
has to wait on another maxi to
get his hair trimmed, but wh5
he has to sit and wait for a girl
who diddles her time by giving
the barber odd instructions as to
the cutting, it's going a bit too
far. Can't you gals stay in your
own backyard and be happy???
There is nothing quite so old
as yesterday's news, but since
the Rag failed to mention the
Cosmo Carnival which was held
two weeks ago we'd like to take
this opportunity to commend the
Cosmopolitans for the fine show
that was presented and for the
wonderful time we had at the
masquerade dance. A great deal
of credit should go to Mrs. E. B.
Chappell and her daughter who
were instrumental in the initial
organization, promotion and pro
duction of the show.
We were amazed and com
pletely entertained by the dis
play of talent which the students
from various countrys displayed
before the large and enthusiastic
audience. Most students on the
campus haven't gone out of their
way to meet or get to know these
representatives from countries
near and far.
To these students we'd like to
say that you don't know what
you've missed or are missing.
Aside from being friendlly, these
students, who are as much a part
of this school as anyone, are
some of the nicest people we've
ever had the pleasure of meeting.
From what we've seen, by their
actions and earnest display of co
operation, they certainly deserve
our friendship which they are so
warmly willing to accept and
cherish.
We dislike to harp on the same
person week after week, but it
seems that some people just can't
keep out of doing odd things.
High on the list of these people
is Walt Simon, Master Mechanic,
who knows about as much about
mechanics as we do about writ
ing a column. Last week Walt's
car was afflicted with the com
mon and routine ailment of a
flat tire. Walt, who drove on it
for a while because "it was only
flat on one side" finally decided
to change the tire and did so
and then parked the car for the
night.
The next day while driving
down the highway, he noticed a
thudding noise which prompted
him to again check his tires.
Finding that everything was in
order he proceeded on his way
only to discover that the thud
ding noise was still with liim.
Driving the little green automo
bile into the nearest garage, Walt
determined to find out what se
rious affliction was causing the
miseries in his car. Looking all
around, the mechanic at the ga
rage could find nothing wrong
so he took the car for a road
test to discover the cause.
When the thudding appeared
for the third time, he stopped
the car and checked the tires.
They weren't flat so he removed
the hubcap from the wheel that
had the flat the day before and
found that Walt had neglected
to replace the lugs which held

Roosevelt died at Warm

PITTSBURGH. The nation's
soft coal industry is suffering
from curtailed production while
even greater woes are foreseen
in the immediate future. Indus

Truman declared the crime prob

it extends also to places like St.

Truman said that he himself had
ordered a grand jury investiga

Kansas City and proposed one
in St Louis.
