Every weekend, students begir the quest for a ride home with v hometown buddy. If one isn' lucky enough to find a ride thi way or, even better, possess a caz of his own, the next stop is the bus station. Every rider of busse will attest to the fun of sitting in a bus depot listening for the speaker to announce that the baw leaving for your hometown it waiting at Gate Six.

PEI 1429 MAIN STREET Studen BY MARGARET SIIALEULY Feature Editor Advice-giving experts advise the collegiate who is planning to work this summer to put in his applica tion now before the best jobs are taken by other early birds. Everybody Works After the final exam in May, literally thousands of South Caro lina students will take up new and varied employments. Some will work to supplement their incomes, and some will work to gain ex perience for that big job after graduation. Others who are free from financial worries will work simply to have something to do and to tell about. Because of the greater number of students seeking jobs, the wise student will secure his position early. Average Salaries The going average over the na tion for summer jobs seems to he from $50 to $60 per week. This is often less when room and board are includcd in the salary. The best single reference to jobs, particularly in restaurants and resorts, is "The Summer Em ployment Directory of the U. S.," (National Directory Service, Box 32065, Cincinnati, Ohio 45232, $2.95). Often the college place ncnt office or library will have a copy of this handy book. Money Jobs Restaurants and resorts offer the largest number of jobs and often the best pay. Some students make up to $2,000 in a summer, but the average net is $500-$800. For the girls the main money paying job is that of a waitress. According to a popular magazine, waitresses are paid the minimum wage of $1.25 an hour, but the tips add up. A young lady who can take six orders at the same time and balance at least three or four trays on her hands, head and hips can make up to $30 a day in a New York restaurant. Camp Counseling Camp counseling pays anywhere from $100 to $1,000 for a season. The experience may be valuable for someone interested in teach ing, recreation or social work as a career. For openings in summer camps, interested students may write to the American Camping Associa Campbell's Cornell Pharmacy 945 SUMTER * Drugs * Cosmetics * School Supplies p Sar, Gint sets cryI Alchard, New Yok JNEY Co.

"Summer Theaters" (published by Show Business, 136 West 44th St., New York, 10036, $2), lists s u m m e r theaters throughout the U. S. and Canada. For the hardy males, construe tion jobs pay $2-$3 an hour, but the work may be sporadic and very hard. Often there is a union fee. The best route into office work is a temporary office work agency. Pay averages $1.25 an hour for clerical work, more for typing, and substantial fees for specialized work. Check the yel low pages under "Temporary Help Services," or the local Cham ber of Commerce for listings. Government Jobs The U. S. Government will hire some 12,000 college students this summer. Pay averages $75 per week, but duties may range across the board. Many of the jobs are in Wash ington as office replacements. The Interior and Agriculture Dc partments offer the largest num ber of jobs. However, the In terior's "National Park Service" competition is very stiff and un less one has already lined up a job, chances of getting one this summer are almost non-existent. The Bureau of Land Manage ment hires several hundred quali fied agriculture and civil engi neering students for work in for estry and range conservation. The Bureau of Reclamation, Geologi cal Survey and Fish and Wildlife Service have job openings for engineers and biology students in fields ranging from irrigation to seagull-counting. rhe Department of Agriculture hires nearly 3,000 college students -men and women-in its Forest, Soil Conservation and Agricul tural Research Services through out the country. The work is with pro-essionals in fighting fires, building trails, flood prevention and making snow surveys. Other Jobs Positions in other government agencies range from hospital architecture (for the Veterans' Administration) to seismology "After we let's head for 'Charlie's'... Don't call a cab.
