Wheels Turning
In the last issue of the LOG, we attempted to start the
wheels turning on a suggested job placemen service for
Lewis and Clark.
To date, the LOG has received twenty letters express
ing interest-both pro and con-for a permanent placement
bureau. Most of these writers believe this program to be
of importance to studentis as well ·as the college.
We welcome this opportunity to give LOG readers the
chance to express their viewpoints on matters pertaining to
student body function and welfare. We further encourage
the use of The Bark of the LOG, our letters to the editor
column, for this purpose and wish to thank those students
and faculty members who join us in the drive for a place
ment service on the campus .
-L.A. F.

With the last summer edition of the LOG off the
press, we gladly turn the keys over to Dean Sempert who
will assume editorship this fall.
In three issues, the staff (all three of us) has attempted
to bring to students as much information of summer activi
ties as possible. Our apologies to all regular students who
did not receive issues of the LOG, and believe us when we
say it was not intentional.

Wheels Turning
In the last issue of the LOG, we attempted to start the
wheels turning on a suggested job placemen service for
Lewis and Clark.
To date, the LOG has received twenty letters express
ing interest-both pro and con-for a permanent placement
bureau. Most of these writers believe this program to be
of importance to studentis as well ·as the college.
We welcome this opportunity to give LOG readers the
chance to express their viewpoints on matters pertaining to
student body function and welfare. We further encourage
the use of The Bark of the LOG, our letters to the editor
column, for this purpose and wish to thank those students
and faculty members who join us in the drive for a place
ment service on the campus .

With the last summer edition of the LOG off the
press, we gladly turn the keys over to Dean Sempert who
will assume editorship this fall.
In three issues, the staff (all three of us) has attempted
to bring to students as much information of summer activi
ties as possible. Our apologies to all regular students who
did not receive issues of the LOG, and believe us when we
say it was not intentional.
