Kendall said an attempt should
be made to "keep down" recruit
ing because uninvited companies,
and the informative agencies in
vited would be at a disadvantage.)
The exposition is scheduled to
be held in the Hetzel Union Build
ing. Since the HUB was a student
financed building and a career
day would benefit all students,
ICCB members felt that space in
the HUB should be free or at
least at a minimum cost.
ICCB has already given Ken
dall $lOO to begin the plans for
the exposition. This money will
be used to hire secretaries and
to buy stationery, etc., Kendall
said. •

groups for money "they didn't

Some of the colleges have not I
answered the request for recom

they did reply they only sent the
names of men not companies or
agencies, he said.
The Colleges of the Liberal
Arts, of Physical Education, of
Education and of Agriculture
have not answered, he said.
According to Kendall, letters
were sent to the deans of each!
college asking for a list of com-1
panies they would like to see in

Prexy Notes Rise
In Faculty Salary
The average faculty member's salary has ipereased about
11 per cent during the 1957-59 biennium, President Eric A.
Walker said yesterday.
"Gratifying as these advances are," he said, "they still
[leave us in an unfavorable position with those American uni
versities with which we must compete for top-flight scholars
l and scientists.
"For this reason, salary in- • •
I creases have top priority in the Accident Aid
appropriation request I shall
Intake to the governor and the
legislature in January."
Walker has not yet disclosed I Was Proper
how much he is asking from the
Legislature for the 1959.81 bi- ;01
ennium. 1 ver Says
Full professors received the
biggest salary increase this bi
ennium, 12.4 per cent. The aver
age salary for a full professor is
now $10,175 a year. The average
10-month salary is $8,670.
Other faculty average salaries
are: associate professor, $8,055 a
year and $6,942, 10 months; assis
tant professor, $6,863 a year and
$5,788, 10 months; instructor,
$5,587 a year and $5,044, 10
months.
Walker said that recent salary
raises were made strictly on a
merit basis. "By this means we
have been able to hold most of
our best people," he said, "but
salary adjustments granted at
comparable institutions during
the same two years compel us to
do much better next year."
He said the two basic sources
for funds for salary increases'
are new money and the opti
mum use of the money now
available.
Anything the faculty can do to
enhance its own productivity,
Walker said, will augment the
funds for salary increases as ef
fectively as a larger appropria
tion would.
Walker expressed appreciation
for faculty and staff cooperation
in pioneering experiments to
raise the University s effective
ness, both qualitatively and quan
titatively.

"From the time the patrol re
ceived the call," Olver said, "I
think the situation was handled
correctly "
Eye witnesses reprimanded the
Campus Patrol for its slow action.
The accident occurred when
Albert S. Swearingen, instruc
tor in agricultural engineering
extension, broke his leg in a
fall on the ice near the Agri
cultural Engineering Building.
Two witnesses. J. D. Hovanes
ian, assistant professor of agricul
itural engineering; and a graduate
,student in the same curriculum,
submitted a statement to The
Daily Collegian referring to the
tardiness in the arrival of an am
bulance.
After the initial call, Lt Harold
F. Lewis on duty in the Campus
Patrol office, contacted a patrol
'man in a radio car and sant him
E to the accident.
Lewis said the witness who
called the station did not ask
for an ambulance. Be merely said
a man had fallen on the ice, and
that he wanted a patrol car.
When the patrolman arrived
at the scene and saw how badly
Swearingen was hurt, he im
