Willard Wlrtz, expressed this opinion in an article in the December issue of the Depart ment of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Quarterly, "Counselors, and others in helping roles to youths,” he said, "must ask themselves if they are doing as much as pos sible in preparing all youth for the world of work.” First, he added, the counse lor "must rid himself of the traditional thinking about past patterns of vocational choice for certain groups in our society.” "He must constantly acquaint, himself with the sver-ess panding opportunities available and then make available to all young people as broad a base of vocational information as possible,” he said. Mr. Chapin noted there Is now an abundance of help for the counselor’s vital job, including* —Support under tne Elemen tary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 through financial assistance to local systems and guidance and counseling ser vices. —Support under the Civil Rights school system and gut dance and counseling services. ••Support under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which pro vtoss for institutes to help school personnel deal better with educational problems caused by desegregation. ••Assistance from the Fed eral-State Employment Service through testing and employment counseling and, subsequently, help In placing young people in jobs. “The local employment ser vice office," he said, "can provide counselors and their students with up-to-date infor mation on the local job market, supply and demand in occupa tions, and changes In occupa tional requirements whenever Durham Bu ge COLLEGE PLAZA - DI RE Registration: March— r * Pepsi>Cole Saj'stiig Company Os Raleigh, N.
