t inNai Vrs. Louioe Jones DuBos ress, will take part on the p of the Association of Americar Jobs Are Plentiful For University's June Graduates Jobs are looking for prospective university graduates again this year. The chief problem of the Place ment Bureau at the university is not finding employment opportun ities for seniors, but in most fields, finding students to fill avail able positions. There are openings in every field for qualified personnel, but the recent demand has been heav iest for engineers, scientific per sonnel, and teachers, Mrs. Ruth McVey, placement director, says. The bureau sponsors employer .employee interviews on a year round basis, but the peak season is from the first of October to the end of April. During this period representatives from industry, government agencies, and educa tional institutions frequent the campus to recruit personnel. In many instances even seniors who expect to go into the military service are able to arrange for future positions. Private individuals as well as industries, business firms, and government groups list positions with the placement bureau. The bureau offers its services to seniors and alumni without charge.

The association is composed of forty-six university presses and affiliated members throughout the United States, Hawaii, and Canada.
