The counselors are young
adults willing to listen. Some of
them are former addicts and
have a basis for anything they
might say.
Everything discussed is held in
strictest confidence. There is
nothing to fear from the police.
One can even remain
anonymous. Most problems
discussed are those which are
drug-oriented. According to I.
David Lewinger, head of the
organization, The Bridge is
"primarily a crisis intervention
center (drug counseling and
information). We hope to expand
into other services on a full time
basis (crash pads, runaways,
etc.)." Most cases now handled
are bad trippers, speed freaks
and those on solvents (toluol, and
toluene solvents found in glue).
The Bridge is still in the
developmental stages having
opened in April 1970. Volunteers
are desperately needed, ac
cording to Mitch Abrams, a Penn
State graduate, working with the
program. The volunteers are
screened and must be sincere
about their work. No drugs,
alcohol or weapons are allowed
on the premises. If enough
volunteers are recruited, the
center hopes to remain open
seven days a week.
If you desire to volunteer your
services as an ex-addict who has
"been there", or just want to
help, call The Bridge, 464 West
Fourth Street, or 543-4797 bet
ween the hours of 6 p.m. Friday
and 12 p.m. Sunday.

PSU Council Hears Views
On Model Bill of Rights
The University
_Council will
hold. _an , open: he4iing at the
Hetzel Union Building on Wed
nesday,• October 20, to solicit
views from students, faculty and
administrators on a model bill of
rights and responsibilities for
members of the University
community.
The hearing was voted by the
Council Thursday during its
consideration of an interim
report by a sub-committee now
considering the Model bill
developed by the Carnegie
Foundation.
Over Abundance
Of Instructors
. s ‘; '''..
A survey of the employment
situation in the public school
teaching field has revealed a
great demand for teachers in
such areas as industrial arts,
special education, speech
pathology and guidance coun
seling. In the larger areas of the
profession elementary
education, English, and social
studies there is either an
oversupply or an adequate supply
of teachers.
In areas such as chemistry,
earth sciences, female health and
physical education, music
education and art education there
is some need for more teachers.
James P. Bucher, assistant
director in charge of educational
placement in the Office of
Placement and Student Aid, says
that the present trends are
comparable to those of last year
and that they probably won't
change for some years to come.
"But the geographic location of
a school and the geographic
preferences of applicants may
result in isolated job market
conditions contrary to these
trends," he adds.
He contends there are a
number of reasons why the
demand for public school
teachers has slowed in the past
couple of years.
"First of all there is no longer a
constantly increasing enrollment
in the public schools as there was
a few years ago. Secondly, a lot
of women who had quit teaching
are now re-entering the job
Reminder To
Pre-Register
A number of faculty were
unable to pre-register all of their
advisees during the hectic first
few weeks of the term. They
have asked that all advisees that
have not yet pre-registered for
Winter Term 1971 at Behrend
please report to their adviser this
week to complete the pre
registration works sheets which
are then forwarded to the
academic Affairs Office.
We would appreciate. ALL
STUDENTS WHO WILL BE
ATTENDING THE BEHREND
CAMPUS FOR THE WINTER
TERM pre-registering as the
class counts will then be used to
readjust numbers of selections
and clagsroom assignments as
indicated by the number of
students pre-registering.
Everyone's cooperation is
essential if we are to avoid hectic
last-minute cancellations and re
arrangements of classes.

The Council is one of four
groups University President
John W. Oswald has asked to
examine the model bill. The
others are the Faculty Affairs
and Student Affairs committees
of the University Senate and the
Student Advisory Group to
President Oswald.
The Council sub-committee
reported that it was planning to
provide the full Council with a
statement on the University and
the members of its community;
comments and interpretations on
the model bill; and guidelines for
market because of the national
economy."
He also says many of the school
districts throughout the State
have found that they have hit a
tax ceiling and the communities
will no longer continue to finance
new schools and larger staffs.
"Lastly," he says, "in the past
year there has been a major
decline in the turnover rate.
Where before a large number of
teachers could be counted on to
leave a given school at the end of
the year, schools have found in
the past year the teachers are
staying. This, too, probably
related to the economy."
In line with the decline in
teaching positions available this
year, on-campus recruiting for
teachers fell about 33 per cent,
according to Bucher.
"Only 90 _schools recruited at
Penn State last year and I think
this too can be related to the
economy. The nature of the job
market is such that the schools
don t really have to recruit and
many of the schools don't have
the money it takes to run a
recruitment program."
Bucher, however, said he still
considers the past year a fairly
good recruiting year for Penn
State with a number of excellent
schools from Pennsylvania and
neighboring states recruiting at
the University.

resolution of conflicts where

At the meeting Thursday,

be limited to this subject.
The next regular meeting of the
Council, will be held at 2:00 p.m.
