lv 4 A ee Sm Ce RR Pern State Extension Survey Shows Graduates Graduates of Penn State’s two- year Associate degree curriculums are well satisfied with their jobs and are being rewarded with salary increases for outstanding performa- nce of their duties. These and other facts were bro- ught to light as the result of a! recent survey of 1955 and 1956 graduates of the technological pro- grams offered at off-campus centers in 12 communities throughout Pen- nsylvania. Pay increases have come regularly for the young men and women, according to the survey, as those out of school two years report aver- age salaries of 22.9 per cent above their starting pay, while those who graduated in 1956 have had raises averaging 11.5 per cent The survey which covered alumni of the drafting and design techno- logy programs, shows a total of 47 different job titles. These include assistant engineer, associate engin- eer, designer, design draftsman, Well Satisfied design stresss analyst, electronics designer, electronics technician, en- gineering aide, engineering technic- ian, field engineer, product analyst, research technician, steel analyst, supervisor, and tool designer. Over 40 per cent of those answer- ing the survey are striving for greater achievement through furt- her education. They are enrolled, on a part-time basis, in 19 different courses in 22 colleges, universities, and night schools. A similar survey conducted a year ago revealed that only 40 per cent of the graduates accepted jobs in Pennsylvania. Of those answering this year’s survey, 61 per cent were employed within the Common- wealth, Most of their 65 employers are manufacturing concerns, although some are employed in other areas, such as universities and the Depart- ment of Defense. Approximately 7 per cent of the graduates have entered service, including one young School?

FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, i 1957 TRENDS IN INFORMAL CAMPUS WEAR are pointed up by this scene in the St. Joseph College Student Union where the right- clothes-for-the-right-time are being emphasized. Left, the gray flecked sport coat is paired with gray slacks. Right, also approved is the light tan zip jacket, char gray sweater and light flannel slacks, says the American Institute of Men’s and Boys’ Wear. Collegians Pace “Dress Up” Trend in Selecting Attire Wide Variety of Fabrics, Colors and Pattern. Give Broad Scope to Individual Choice Fashions for the campus this fall set new highs in the dress- up trend with the “Ivy” influence predominant in all phases of the college man’s wardrobe. In suits, the slim “Ivy” models with minimum shoulder pad- ding, three-button fronts, flapped pockets and center vent in back command high favor because they are so flattering to the average young man’s build. At the same time, the colleg- ian can find broad scope for the expression of his individuality in the wide array of fabrics, patterns and colors from which he may choose. Glen plaid, smooth-faced wool worsteds and striped wool flannels feature neat, muted colorings. Dark gray and me- dium gray line up together in narrow hairline stripes to be- come the most popular two- tone combination for import- ant campus occasions. Other striking striped com- binations are fine red stripes on black, navy on gray, tan on gray. Also favored are chalk College Costs — Average cost of a year in college is now estimated by educational authorities, to be around $1,500 in tax sup- ported universities and $2,000 a year in privately controlled schools. | Tuition has nearly doubled since today’s high school | students were born. ; Similarly, the number of | college students who earn part of their expenses while at school, has increased vastly. stripes in soft wool flannels, with white or tan against gray and light blue on navy. When he turns his attention to the important subject of sport coats, the college man will find the frend to lightness in coats for year ‘round wear reaching its peak, this fall. Among the styles that will vie for his favor are heather tweed wool shetlands that impart a genuine casual “soft” look in gray and olive tones; the pop- ular houndstooth pattern in a white, gray and olive mixture; and -gray, olive and red stripe combinations. Typically campus in styling is the raglan sleeve Donegal wool tweed topcoat with slashed pockets, bold leather buttons and tabs on sleeves. This year, too, the wool fleece camel polo coat is staging a comeback in.a new slimmed down model with belted back and double-breasted front. | For less formal occasions, the! college man will need an outer; jacket with toggle front. The! new “car coats” are styled for driving, have deep and roomy patch pockets and collars that convert into hoods. They are also. just the thing to ward off the: chill on dashes between class buildings. Two or three pairs of slacks are a “must” in the back-to- college wardrobe. Gray is first: choice, but brown adds variety. The new slacks are trim and tapered, pleatless, and sport a& back strap with buckle. Equally essential are sweat- ers, at least one of which should: be a bulky knit. Fall'styles point to bold stripes, high shawl-col-! lared- coats and panel-pat- terned fronts along with the classic crew neck in authentic shetlands.
