New Program
To Supplement
Mining Courses
A student-trainee program to
,supplement the regular four-year
curriculum in mining engineering
ihas been inaugurated by the De
partment of Mining.
The new plan, explains Dr.
Howard L. Hartman, professor and
head of the Department of Min
ing, has resulted from concern
about the shortage of engineers
entering the mining industry in
[ contrast with the demand and op
'pofield.rtunities for young men in this
"A sharp decline in mining en-1
gineering enrollment at most uni
versities during the past two years
indicateu the situation is growing
steadily worse," Hartman says.
The program, which will go,
into effect in July, is designed
,specifically to benefit companies
lin the mineral industries by pro
viding a steady supply of techni-
cal personnel.
Students enrolling in the pro
gram will attend school six
months, then work in industry
six months, over a four-year pe
,riod. The fifth year they will re
main in school continuously.

Dear Miss Muddle: Tell your father to
talk to your mother and tell your sister to
talk to your brother. Then tell your boy

that doesn't work, then talk to your
mother and brother yourself. Maybe they
know something you don't know.
