PAGE THREE Successful Baseball Season For the Braves Ends May 20 Chowan College coticluded its successful 1953 season when it played the Campbell College “Camels” Wednesday night, May 20, at 8 o’clock, losing with a score of 7-0. The Braves now have a record of nine victories and seven defeats. They have defeated PJC twice, EMI, William and Mary of Nor folk, Edenton Marines, Louisburg Junior College, Phieffer twice, and Newport News Apprentice School.

Morris, pastor of First Baptist Church, Scotland Neck, who preached the baccalaureate ser mon at the college on May 24. Printing Industry Assists Chowan In Getting Students Chowan College is getting an assist from The Printing Industry of the Carolinas, Inc. Chowan College, which took the lead among junior colleges in offering a course in graphic arts (printing), already has broken ground for a building in order to expand this course next fall. And now comes the PICA send ing out brochures to each high school in each county trying to overcome the lack of glamour the printing trade has held out to students and to overcome the acute shortage of desirable ma terial for apprentices. Here’s a release from PICA to the newspapers of the two states: Opportunities for a career in printing are being explained to young people by The Printing Industry of the Carolinas, Inc. This rapidly growing industry has need for hundreds of young people above the average, and with those aptitudes needed for rapid learn ing in this career. In addition to newspapers, there are 28,989 printing establishments in this country. Only two other industries have more units in the United States. The combined pay roll of the graphic arts industry amounts to over $2,227,000,000.00 per year, ranking eighth in all industries. The average hourly rate paid to journeymen is the second highest paid to skilled em ployees in American industry. Embracing over 715,450 indi viduals, this industry ranks ninth in number of employees. The graphic arts industry is larger than the automobile in dustry, the entire mining industry, farm equipment and meat pack ing. It is only slightly smaller '.han the entire textile industry of the United States. The printing industry is a big industry with great opportunities for young people. High school graduates and veterans will find this a field of ever increasing interest. Two factors are influencing the present efforts to secure appren- (ices. First, the industry is grow ing rapidly and especially in the South; which results in a need for more workers. However, the average age in the printing in dustry is very high, and there is a constant need for replacing those who are retiring. There is an old familiar saying that once a person gets printing CompI i ments 0 Ahoskie Meat And Provision Co. Ahoskie, N. C. ink on his hands, he will never get it off. This is easily explained. Printing is such a fascinating business that once in it one never cares to change. The U. S. Employment Service cooperated with The Printing Industry of the Carolinas to estab lish aptitude tests for printers. These are designed to ascertain whether or not a person has those natural aptitudes which are neces sary to become a good printer. These tests are administered, at no cost to the applicant, in any U. S. Employment Service office. Those standing high in these tests know they can progress rapidly because they have aptitudes for printing, and these are especially wanted in the industry. A high school education materially as sists the young person in attain ing the highest positions. An attractive booklet about the industry and complete information may be had by writing to The Printing Industry of the Caro linas, Route 1, Columbia, S. C. Orchids To..
