I don't think they're aware enough. Veterans Coordinator I've never given it any thought. As far as I'm concerned, it's part of Penn State University. I was a student here, and I felt the same way then. It's a Penn State degree. We're separate from the system, but we're part of it. We need flexibility in certain areas. WRAP ..........

READER Engineer Grads Enjoy Booming Market University Park, Pa. -- The job market for qualified engineering graduates should be a happy hunting ground for quite some time, say engineering administrators at The Pennsylvania State University. They point to the 1974 College Placement .Council Survey which shows there has been a 31 percent increase in job of fers to engineering seniors over last year. And 68 percent of all job offers this year came from employers in the manufacturing and industry categories. Of the overall job offers to men, 62 percent were in engineering disciplines, 28 percent in business areas, six percent in natural sciences, and four percent in humanities and social sciences. Because of the scarcity of women in the more technical disciplines, only 12 percent of the women's volume was in engineering as compared to 34 percent in business, 28 percent in the humanities and social scien ces, and 26 percent in natural sciences. Engeering seniors at Penn State were also offered some of the highest starting salaries, along with seniors who majored in the earth and mineral sciences and business. The starting salaries for graduating seniors in engineering ranged from $956 to $1,066, .according to the University Placement Service, whereas the salaries for liberal arts majors averaged about $755. Despite the increasing demand for engineers, however, the graduating classes in engineering are expected to be smaller each year from now through at least 1978, according to the Engineering Manpower Commission. "The smaller classes are the result of the 'engineering scare' during the late sixties when the cutback in defense funding left a number of engineers unemployed", ex plains Dr. Nunzio J. Palladino, dean of the College of Engineering at the University. This situation, Dean Palladino thinks, un necessarily frightened away prospective engineering students. He points out that the present energy problem is only one of the areas where solutions demand the expertise of engineers, and that the continual advance of technology requires the skills of more technically trained men and women. "High school seniors, both men and women, who are proficient in mathematics and the sciences should look into the possibility of going into engineering", urges Dr. Palladino. "Not only should this career choice prove to be rewarding to the individual, but it would also be of great help to society." READER REVIEWS Reynolds Returns by Jim Bollinger Burt Reynolds, the male version of Racquel Welch (I read that somewhere), has come back to the screen in a light comedy spiced with drama. The Longest Yard was tailor-made for Reynolds. It gives him a chance to flaunt and enjoy himself while pulling in millions; there was a packed house at the Trans-Lux the night I went. (Just a reminder - Trans Lux has student discount rates). As I said, the film is a light comedy, with drama that is never more than trite, and it is filled with Knute Rockney-1940ish cliches. The plot you've probably heard by now, but we'll take it once more from the top: Reynolds plays an ex-pro footballer who leaves the game after being caught at fixing contests. He then turns into a pro-baller who gets fed up with his sexy mealticket and decides to go his separate way. She, however has other ideas and tries to stop him. Burt, I mean, Paul Crew doesn't like that idea and roughs her up and takes her Maserati and lams it. She calls the cops, and Paul leads the modern Keystone Cops on a merry chase, banging up that beautiful auto rather badly. As a last insult, after eluding the police, he dumps the car in the bay. He finally gets arrested, and is sent up the river (more ac curately, the swamp), where he runs into a football-crazed warden (portrayed excellently by Eddie Albert) who wants crew to coach his semi-pro team. He refuses. The next of the film is concerned with Crew's suffering at the hands of the inmates (who hated his un-American act of shaving points) and the guards (with special orders from the warden). Finally, we get to the meat of the film where Crew is ordered to get-up a team of cons to play the guards in a pre-season warm-up match. The film warms up as we go thru the picking and training of the team, and all the activities connecting and surrounding it. The murder of Crew's best-friend ostensibly gives the team something to play for, but is inserted at the wrong time in the film, and comes off as being more macabre than dramatic. Anyway, the best part of the film is the football game. Believe me, that alone is well-worth the price of admission. It takes up almost a third of the film's running time and is one of the best stagings of a football game ever. Probably the best. From what I've read and heard, the game wasn't just staged, it was actually played. And it shows it. Many ex-pros adorn the cast, including such famous macho-men as Ray Nietsche, Joe Kapp, and Sonny Sixkiller. And they play the game like they're still in the NFL. The ending is predictable and very passe, but it's not really noticable after the excitement of the game. The plot is a remake of the old win-one-for-old-State-U formula, but the picture's done with a finesse that allows one to pass over its shortcomings, and really concentrate on its high-points. Don't miss it— it puts Humble Howie to shame.
