MEMO TO: Editor,
FROM: Gus Tyler, Director,
ILGWU Training Institute
Subject: A CAREER WITH A CHALLENGE.
Your readers, especially those under the
age of 35, have been a source of talent, in
spiration and raw material for us during
the last few years. Each year, we have heard
from your readers in response to our appeal
for dedicated young men and women to work
in the labor movement.
We are convinced that in every generation
there is a segment of young people who would
like to play a courageous and active role in
changing the shape of things, and we are
therefore renewing our invitation to a
career that others—in this decade—have
found a rewarding way of life.
The International Ladies' Garment Work
ers' Union conducts its own "West Point,*
to prepare young men and women for careers
in labor leadership. The one-year course
combines classroom and field work. Those
who complete the course are assigned to a
full-time job with the union.
With the job comes the challenge—to pro—
vide the kind of dedicated and ethical
leadership that will make the American
labor movement the creative social force it
seeks to be.
The Training Institute is now in its tenth
year. 140 of its graduates now hold union
office in the ILGWU. Virtually all started
as organizers—to learn the labor movement
at the grass roots. While some continue at
this mission as their first and enduring
love, others branch out to take on respon
sibilities as business agents, local union
managers, educational and political di
rectors, area supervisors, time study ex
perts, etc.
There is nothing soft or cushy about any
of these jobs. But then we are not looking
for young people who want the easy plush
life. We want those who will enjoy the sting
of challenge.
To these, we open the doors of the In
stitute. Write before April 15: ILGWU
Training Institute, 1710 Broadway, New
York 19, N. Y.

that it would be more expedient
if the president remained as an

On the matter of seating in
the new stadium. Walter Dar-
ran, (C.-Jr.), will present to As
i sembly the plan which will be
given to the Athletic Advisory
Board on Friday by Edward M.
Czekaj, business manager of
athletics.
The plan would seat about 7800
!upper-class students on both tiers
:of the stadium from the 43-yard
'line to about the 20-yard line.
Darran explained last night that
!the 43-yard line had been chosen
because there is a railing there
to serve as a natural boundary
'between the student and reserved
sections.
