“I came to college to date good
looking girls,” said one preplexed
young man in the Student Center
recently.” “I’ve met good looking
girls here but can’t get a date
with any of them—they’re all tak-
en.”
This comment has aroused the
interest of Leopard Tales staffers,
who have uppermost in their
Jobs Abroad Beckon
Students In Summer
Work this summer in the forests
of Germany, on construction in
Austria, on farms in Germany,
Sweden and Denmark, on road con-
struction in Norway.
These jobs as well as others in
Ireland, Switzerland, England,
France, Italy, and Holland are
open by the consent of the gov-
ernments of these countries to
American university students com-
ing to Europe next summer.
For years students made their
way across the Atlantic to take
part in the actual life of the people
of these countries. The success of
this project has caused a great deal
of enthusiastic interest and support
both in America and Europe.
Every year the program has
been expanded to include many
more students and jobs. Already,
many students have made applica-
tion for next summer jobs. Amer-
ican-European Student Service (on
a non-profit basis) is offering
these jobs to students for Ger-
many, Scandinavia, England, Aus-
tria, Switzerland, France, Italy,
and Spain. The jobs consist of
forestry work, child care work
(females only), farm work, hotel
work (limited number available),
construction work, and other more
qualified jobs requiring more spec-
ialized training.
The purpose of the program is to
afford the student an opportunity
to get into real living contact with
people and customs of Europe. In
this way, a concrete effort can be
made to learn something of the
culture of Europe. In return for
his work, the student will receive
his room and board, plus a wage.
However, students should keep in
mind that they will be working on
the European economy and wages
will naturally be scaled according-
ly. The working conditions (hours,
safety, regulations, legal protec-
tion, work permits) will be strictly
controlled by the labor ministries
of the countries involved.
In most cases, the employers
have requested especially for:
American students. Hence, they are
particularly interested in the stu-
dent and want to make the work
as interesting as possible.

mation and application forms to:

hearts the welfare of fellow stu-
dents.
With St. Valentine's Day only
three days away, the staff donned
Cupid’s bow and arrow and con-
ducted a casual poll to gain some
idea about the dating status of
TJC students.
Questionnaires were distributed
among 293 students in English
classes, selected at random.
If the results are considered rep-
resentative of the entire student
body, then 66 per cent or two thirds
of all students are free to date
whomever they wish. The other
one third are married, engaged or
going steady.
Some 65 per cent of the boys are
unattached as compared to 70 per
cent of the girls. However, since
boys outnumber girls by about 5
to 3, according to the registrar’s
report for the fall semester, Cupid
cannot assure that every boy will
date a TJC girl on Saturday night.
As a. matter of fact—in the two
thirds “fancy free” group—each
girl should have one and one-half
boys, mathematically speaking.
Other results: married girls—
6%, married boys—5%, total mar-
ried—6%; engaged girls—3%, en-
gaged boys—6%, total engaged—
5%; girls going steady—21%, boys
going steady—24%, total going
steady—23%.
Rebuttal Declares
breaches of the peace . .
In comparison, Karl Marx, one
of the founders of Communism,
wrote in his Communist Manifesto,
“Communists everywhere support
every revolutionary movement
against the existing political and
social order of things . . . Let the
ruling classes tremble at a Com-
munist revolution. The proletarians
have nothing to lose but their
chains. They have a world to win.”
Today, the Red Chinese govern-
ment is giving full support to the
North Vietnamese, and the Com-
munists of Russia have now pledg-
ed their support. This is not count-
ing the Communist-supported cold
vvars in China, Malaya, Indonesia,
Algeria, the Congo, Cuba, Iraq, the
Gaza Strip, Hungary, Korea, An-
gola, Burma, Tibet, Egypt, and
Laos.
If would revolutions and a con-
sistent record of vetoes to peace-
making proposals are all the Com-
munist nations can offer, I believe
peace-loving countries should have
strong reservations when consider-
ing Red China as necessary to any
world organization which is at-
tempting to keep world harmony.
