page 3 daily nebraskan friday, august 29, 1975 Labor Day marks closing of most campgrounds By Lisa Brown Labor Day weekend is the last weekend outdoor enthusiasts can use lodging and modern camp grounds in most of the park areas under the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission's jurisdiction, ' Campgrounds including restrooms, showers, and trailer hookups will be disconnected Sept. 2 at most of the 93 state park, recreation and wayside areas, said Paul Husted, chief of recreation and wayside areas under the division of state parks. The areas will remain open througout ' the year for primitive camping, picnicking, hiking and other activities, he said. Last year the campgrounds were open until mid-September, however, this year they will close two weeks earlier and were opened one week later because of budget limitations, Husted said. A slightly smaller park's budget and the rising cost of goods and services caused the shortened park season, according to Dale Bree, assistant director of the State Game and Parks Commission. The Nebraska Legislature allocated $2,314,459 for parks administration and operation for the current fiscal year, Eldon Ehrlick, legislative fiscal analyst,- said. Ehrlich said money from other funds allocated to the State Game and Parks Commission may be used in different areas of park 1 work including construction, wildlife conservation, and equipment. Two parks, Chadron and Fort Robinson, will reopen for specific hunting 'seasons. ' Cabins at Ft. Robinson State Park near Crawford will reopen Sept. 26 to Oct. 5 and Oct. 24 to Nov. 7 for the firearm antelope and fall turkey seasons. Both Chadron and Ft. Robinson State Parks will reopen Nov. 7, through 17 for the firearm deer season. Two Rivers State Recreation Area south of Omaha will stay open until Nov. 1 for trout fishermerl and waterfowl hunters. The Louisville State Recreation Area probably will close Oct. IS, Ehrlick said. Husted said the Windmill wayside area near Gibbon and the' Morman Island wayside area near Grand Island will be open throughout the winter. Modern campgrounds at most parks will be available again the Griday . before Memorial Day. UNL accountant seminars given as community service There will be a Tassels meeting Tuesday at 5 p.m. in the Nebraska Union. Members should bring their student IDs and checks for football tickets. New blazers may be picked up at Nebraska Clothing anytime before the first game. . . . Accounting Club will meet Wednesday at 3:45 p.m. in the Nebraska Union. The meeting will cover curriculum and the interview process. A seminar for students receiving financial aid will be held Wednesday' and Thursday in the Nebraska Union Small Auditorium from 2:30 to 4 pjm. The Office of Scholarships and Financial Aids is sponsoring the seminar to answer questions and explain instructions. The Gay Action Group is sponsoring a dance every Sunday from 9-12 p.m. at 333 N.MthSt. Job alternatives urged The UNL College of Business Administration is holding Certified Public Accountant (CPA) reviews for the next ten weeks beginning Saturday. Bob Raymond, Accounting Dept. chairman, said the sessions are "purely a community service." The classes meet every Saturday from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. with additional time if students think it is necessary. Raymond said in the past, sessions were not held on football game Saturdays. Raymond said the CPA is one of the "well-recognized professions, alongside medicine or law." He said, the sessions are really a "coaching or cram course" for students who have graduated and are taking CPA exams in the fall. However, the sessions are open to anyone if they want to pay the $100 fee. There are two sessions for each structured review. The same session held in Lincoln one Saturday will be held again in Grand Island the following Saturday. Preliminary registration records show 36 students have signed up for the CPA review in Lincoln and 25 in Grand Island. This is the third year the noncredit sessions have been conducted at UNL. Raymond said, "The profession looks to the school for students...we have an obligation to work for the students beyond graduation." "Choice jobs for college graduates are declining and the thing to do is to have alternative vocation plans ready," according to Frank Hallgren, director of the UNL Career Planning and Placement Office. "Students shouldn't just prepare for one specific job because it's hard to predict the employe picture," he said. Job offers to college graduates are down, a national survey by the College Placement Council shows. Offers to persons with bachelors degrees are down 24 per cent from 1974, and offers to those holding masters degrees are down 18 per cent, compared with 37 per cent for thoso with a doctorate, the survey showed. the survey showed starting salary offers to engineers climbed most during the year, while other fields only had slight gains. UNL figures are similar to the national survey Hallgren said. The most recent UNL survey was taken in May to find how many graduates had job's. Of those seeking employment, 46 per cent had work. Broken down into colleges, the results are: dentistry, 96 per cent; agriculture, 73 per cent; engineering and technology, 72 . per cent; business administration, 42 per cent; arts and sciences, 31 per cent; architecture, 26 per cent; and home economics, 22 per cent. In the graduate college, 55 per cent of those with master's degrees were employed and 71 per cent of the doctoral graduates had employment. 1 - , None of the figures considered those students who are going to graduate school, Halgren said. About half of Arts and Science College graduates are continuing their schooling, he said. fa a I E Oelobratos 6 illiOi 2:80-5:80 10s Brans SLOO Piteber I If you onjoy instructing sports and activities with young boys between the ago of 0 -14 cai the Y.O.C.A. 488-0S31 End apply fcr a part tints mtm you'll enjoy Give us your old, tired typewriter and well give you toward a new Smith-Corona Coronamatic 2200 r BENEDICT ARTV7QRLD DREW HIS LAST BREATH.
