Senator Jordan Reports;
From the Office of
Son. B. Evorett Jordan
WASHINGTON As in
past years, quite a num
ber of North Carolina stu
dents will want to find
temporary jobs with Uncle
Sam this summer.
For some the lure will
be the idea of working' in
Washington at a time when
a new administration is
just getting into gear.
For others, the appeal
may be the chance to mix
play with pay in one of
the many national parks
and government . owned
recreation areas that dot
the country.
The chief attraction in
many cases will be ta job
that combines the oppor
tunity of acquiring work
experience with the finan
cial stake that will let
them enter or continue
college.
Opportunities in a wide
variety are available —
, though not in the num
bers of some past years
because of the current eco
nomic situation in govern
ment.
Jobs that are available
are open to any who can
qualify by age and scores
on competitive examina
tions offered by the Civil
Service Commission.
Time is, however, run
ning out for those who
may not already have
made a preliminary move.
Applications will be ac
cepted only through Janu
ary 30, with examinations
to be scheduled March 8
for those who meet that

Os course, merely ap
plying is not going to in
sure a job because the

These findings point up the extreme hazard of driving
on glare ice—showing that with regular tires it may
take close to nine times as far to stop as on dry pave
ment. The Safe Winter Driving League cautions drivers
that regardless of the type of traction device employed
even with tire chains —far slower than normal speeds
are essential on icy pavements.
