Foreign Jobs
In Summer
Job opportunities in Europe
this summer. . .Work this sum
mer in the forests of Germany,
on construction in Austria, on
farms in Germany, Sweden and
Denmark, on road construction
in norway.
Well there are these jobs avail
able as well as jobs in Ireland,
Switzerland, England, France,
Italy, and Holland are open by
the consent of the governments
of these countries to American
university students coming to
Europe the next summer.
Every year, the program has
been expanded to include many
more students and jobs. Already,
many students have made appli
cations for next summer jobs.
American - European Student
Service (on a non-profitable bas
is) is offering these jobs to stu
dents for Germany, Scandinavia,
England, Austria, Switzerland,
France, Italy, and Spain. The
jobs consist of forestry work,
child care work (females only),
farm work, hotel work (limited
number abailable), construction
work, and some other more qual
ified jobs requiring more special
ized training.
The purpose of this program
is to afford the student an op
portunity to get into real living
contact with the people and
customs of Europe. In this way,
a concrete effort can be made
to learn something of the culture
of Europe. In return for his or
her work, the student will re
ceive his or her room and board,
plus a wage. However, students
should keep in mind that they
will be working on the European
economy and wages will natural-

As is evident to most ACC driv
ers, there exists the age old
(modern age, that is) problem
of finding a parking space.
According to administration rec
ords, as of Monday, Jan. 3,
there were a total of 592 automo
biles registered — 128 faculty
and staff autos and 464 student
autos. Dean Bennett said that
there are some multiple registra
tions by students who may drive
two or more different cars dur
ing the year. On the other hand,
he said, there are some cars
parked near campus which are
not registered because the regu
lation states that cars which are
to be parked on campus proper
ty only are to be registered. He
concluded that these two excep
tions offset each other so the
Noted Pianist To Appear
In January 10th Concert
Henry Black, noted pianist, j sic and Master of Music de-
will appear in concert on the! grees from Cincinnati Conserva-
campus of Atlantic Christian i tory of Music, where he was a
College on Jan. 10, at 8.15 p.m. j pupil of the Jate Dr, Karol Lisz-
A native of Savannah, Ga., ^ '
Black holds the Bachelor of Mu-
niewski. For 10 years he has
headed the piano department of
the Shenandoah Conservatory of
Music, Winchester, Va., and has
made frequent appearances as
piano soloist, accompanist and
ensemble artist.
He has been heard as soloist
with the Symphony of the valley
under the baton of Ronald On-
drejka, and will appear next
month in recital at Winona State
College, Winona, Minn.
Included in Black’s program
at Atlantic Christian will be the
Mozart Variations on “Ah Vous
Dirais Je, Maman” (Twinkle,
Twinkle Little Star), four Chopin
Impromtus, two Shubert Im
promptus, Rachmaninoff’s Varia-j Metropolitan Opera Company
tion on a theme by Chopin, a! wOI present Puccini’s "Madame
sonata by Samuel Barber and | Butterfly.” o
total of 592 is probably fairly
accurate. Using this figure, one
out of three people at ACC has
a ear.
On campus there are 1(M park
ing spaces available — 55 spaces
designated for faculty and staff
only, 83 spaces for students only,
and 30 spaces for both. In other
words, 43 per cent of the facul
ty, 24 per cent of the students,
and 28 per cent of the total num
ber of autos can be accommo
dated. According to Dean Ben
nett, without going more than a
block from campus in any direc
tion, there are 223 spaces on the
street. Adding the 168 campus
spaces, there are 391 parking
spaces within a block of cam
pus. This number represents ac
commodation for 66 per cent of
the vehicles. Dean Bennett said
that it must be kept in mind
that all the vehicles are not here
at one time. He said that park
ing space is much like classroom
space and can be used more
than once in the same day.
Dean Bennett stated that
these figures only indicate a
need for more on-campus park
ing, but the problem at this
point has not reached critical
proportions when street parking
is considered. He said that there
are plans to do away with the
faculty - staff lot and part of
the student lot to make room
for the construction of the pro
posed cafeteria and student cen
ter. The two lots accommodate
approximately 95 cars. Obvious
ly, the parking problem would
become critical if 95 cars were
sent to the streets but, accord-

ing to Dean Bennett, the col
lege is aware of this. He said
that Mr. Adams, business man
ager, has been working with the
architect on a possible solution
to the parking problem. Dean
Bennett said that the administra
tion realizes that this is one
phase of our campus develop
ment that will have to take place
along with the expansion of oth
er needed facilities.
According to Dean Bennett,
there will be no additional con
trol of change in regulations con
cerning auto registration at this
time. He said that some col
leges do restrict the number of
automobiles, but most studies in
dicate no significant difference
academically. Although no study
has been made at ACC, Dean
Bennett seems to support this
idea.

In l.t'adership
Ann Bunn, day student sena
tor, announced her resignation to
the E.xecutive Board in the form
of a letter to David Webb, presi
dent, last Monday night. The
letter read as follows;
“I’m sorry it has taken me
so long to write this letter to
you. As you know I am now
practice teaching; and there is
much more work in it than I
ever expected. Therefore, I feel
I must resign from my position
as Day Student Senator. I real
ize I am being of no help what
soever to the Day Students by
being off campus and knowing
practically nothing about any of
the college events. Naomi and
I felt that someone else could
better serve' the Day Student
cause and need, as president
and senator.
“Please express to the board
members my position.”
In other business, Larry
Poore, me'n’s dorm president,
reported that the Chapel Com
mittee had met and had dis
cussed the prospect of having a
campus referendum on required
chapel.
John Gorham, student coordi
nator. presented the bill which
ACC will sponser at the SSL
convention. The bill deals with
education and was read to and
discussed by the board.
Marshall Smith, senior sena
tor, moved that elections of the
day student officers be held on
January 11, and that petitions
should be received up through
12 p.m. on Friday, January 7.
The motion passed.
The ACC “drinking rule” was
brought up for discussion. No
action was taken for want of
further consideration into this
matter.-
Larry Poore moved that the
president be authorized to ap
point a committee which would
be responsible for holding syn-
posiums in order that students
might have the opportunity to
discuss various campus issues.
The motion was amended to
pass this authority on to the
Campus Awareness Committee
and passed.
The movies to be shown on
campus as decided by the stu
dents were reduced to six by the
voting of the Board. The mov
ies appearing will be, “Bridge
on the River Kwai” “Back
street,” "Suddenly Last Sum
mer,” “The Cardnal,” “Hamlet,’
and “On the Waterfront.”

zation.
