lege, is an engineer at
the Newport News Ship
building and Drydock
Company. Mr. Dickerson
is now living in Hampton,
Virginia. He is a native
of Fremont and is mar
ried to the former Miss
Doris Cherry who was a

that each student should

portunities that are avail
able and if you apply your
self, there are numerous
companies that are in
terested in your service
because the demand is
growing all the time.

city of New York as a

reers Program, She

to train, educate and de
velop underemployed
people over 22. Before

fashkilL His native home

gineer Components De
sign Analysis. He attend
ed Howard University and

ginia and did graduate

sey, He feels that the

stay in school and get a

Mr, William Perry, the
speaker for the occasion,
was born in Rochelle, New
York. He is employed at
Western Electric, New
York City. Mr. Perry
writes speeches and edits
publications. He attended
college at CCNY. He feels
that this is the shortest
four years of our life be
cause we are going to be
working for forty years,
and what we do in these
four years is going to be
vitally important, not how
you are going to live your
life. He said “we are
here from industry today,
demanding the best and
we, therefore, expect you
to be the best you can
be. The opportunity is
there but there aren’t
enough qualified people.”
Mr. George R. Simp

Purification, Baltimore,

supplies portable purified
water for the city. Mr.
Simpson’s job involves
testing and control of the
various constituents that
make up the water. He
also does polution control
experimentation. His ad
vice to us is to become
as much as possibly in
volved in the curriculum
set up in the institution,
as to obtain as much
knowledge as possible. In
doing this, you would thor
oughly prepare yourself
for whatever may result.
“Due to the fact no in
dividual can predetermine
his future career 100%, a
thorough education will
open the door and make
available the feasibility of
a future. Hard work will
determine your final out
come.”

burgh Public Schools,
Newburgh, New York. He

Columbia University and
will complete work on
PhD. at Indiana Univer

is a great individual re
ward in teaching and ev
eryone, no matter what
their profession, had to
have a great teacher in
order to inspire him to
succeed in what he is to
day wil be in the future.
Mr, Moody advises us to
set a goal and work with
all our heart and soul to
fulfill that goal,

ers Products Company in

sity, majoring in Ac-
couting. He spent thir-
ty-three months in the
United States Army. He
thinks that people should
become aware of the flex
ibilities of opportunities,
and by that he means that
a person is not restrict
ed by whatever special
ization he chooses to stu
dy because each position
in a career has several
variations leading from
it and each subsequent
position opens new ave
nues. His job title is Ad
ministrative Accountant,

outlines methods, and
procedures and tries to
improve them, Mr, Ad

doing so that the next per-
