TRAINED PEOPLE
 IN GREAT DEMAND
Skilled WOrkmen Hard to Find Despite Definite
 Employment Problem

Despite the widespread unem- ployment, a nationwide survey re- veals definite need for trained people," said E. Everett Cortright, president of the Junior College of Connecticut to-day in comment on bulletin just issued by the college which announces two new courses for executive and medical secre- taries.
 Though there is definite em- ployment problem with us at all times, we have had more unem- ployment during the past five years than ever before in our history. But despite this fact, skilled work men and professionally trained peo- pie are hard to find.
 "A recent survey made by the local office of the State Employ ment Service revealed that out of more than ten thousand applicants for jobs, less than eight hundred were skilled. Of this number 8 great many were unemployable for reasons other ability. This same situation is true in the profession al field. For many years business executives, lawyers, doctors, bank CTS, school administrators and po- litical leaders have been asking for highly trained secretaries; people who can do more than merely oper- ate typewriter and take dictation. They are demanding men and wo- i, men who have good general edu- cation as well as a broad founda- tion of instruction in business and secretarial training.
 'The Junior College is answering this demand by offering two three year courses for executive and med ical secretaries in the affiliated Bridgeport School of Business. The program for medical secretaries who will be trained for positions with doctors, dentists, hospitals and med- ical centers is new undertaking and is one of great promise. Against background of broad general edu- cation and of foundation courses in the field of business, adequate train ing is provided in Secretarial prac- tice and laboratory technique. Gen. eral courses in chemistry, bacteri- ology and biology will form the sci- entific content while the upper ranges of stenography will be oc- cupied with medical terminology which will be brought in through letters, case histories, and patholog- ical and clinical discussion of cases.
 "The new four-year curriculum in business administration, carried on in utilization with the Junior Col- lege, provides a sound general edu- cational background with technical business subjects in each of the four years, as well as a four-year cons tinuity in accounting for those who choose to major in that field which meets all of the educational require" ments for C.P.A. work both n Connecticut and in New York state

The campaign for funds for the memorial window was instituted by a group of Father O'Shea's friends shortly after the death of his brother. Rev. William O'Shea, pastor of St. Margaret's church, in Febru- ary. Father O'Shea knew nothing of the plan until the presentation was made last night in the presence of an audience of more than 700.
 Family Memorial
 Overlooking St. Josephs altar, on the east side of the church, the window will be inscribed as me- morial to the O'Shea family, among them Father O'Shea's parents, his late brother, and another brother, Bishop John O'Shea, who is en- gagged in missionary work in China.
 The presentation last night also marked the Fist anniversary of Father O'Shea's association with the city's central Catholic parish. He came here as a curate in 1915.
 In making the presentation, Mayor Hayes recalled that he had been a lifelong member of the parish, that his parents were married in the old Church of the Immaculate Con- ception and that he himself was baptized there. He expressed ad- miration for Father O'Shea and for his accomplishments in Water bury, both as assistant pastor and as administrator of the parish. The mayor congratulated the contribu- tors, comparing their spirit with those who contributed 50 generously to the fund for the erection of the new church 10 years ago.
 In accepting the memorial to his family, Father O'Shea said that he was deeply touched by the spirit of the members of the parish. He de- clared that loyalty, goodwill and cooperation have enabled the parish to continue to make advances and progress.
 Since the death of the late Rev. William J. McGurk, Father O'Shea has been administrator of the Church of the Immaculate Concep- tion. Before the late pastors death he aided him greatly in handling the many affairs of the busy parish.
 Seated on the platform in the church auditorium last night were Lieutenant Governor Hayes, Father O'Shea, Rev. Eugene Cryne, pastor of St. Patricks church; Rev. Je- rome Cooke, Rev. Joseph Rice, Rev. John Costello, Rev. George Reilly; and Rev. F. x. Williams and Rev. T. J. Mccarthy, who are conduct ing novena services at the church.

Fireworks Possible
There is a possibility that some
fireworks may break loose IN the SEES
sion tonight, since the nomination OF
officers for the coming year Will De
in order at this opening session. US
ually, the nomination of OFFICERS is a
routine matter, with the first VICE
president automatically being adVanc-
ed to president and with only slight
changes in the other officers. Inc
report is current, however, that the
classroom teachers are IN revolt
against the faction which for years
is credited with having controlled the
education association and picked It's
officers, and that these teachers are
going to propose the name OF Miss
Oma Claire Lafferty, of Charlotte,
for president. Miss Lafferty is al
ready president of the Classroom
teachers Association, a branch OF. the
North Carolina Education Associa-
+;on She has hpen rather OutSpOken
in her criticism of the manner in
which the association has been man
aged for the past year, especially OF
it's lobbying activities during the 1885
General Assembly.
Funderburk in Line
Since County superintendent Ray
F'underburk, of New Hanover county,
is first vice president of the associa-
ton and slated to be elected president
there is a possibility of a sharp clash
between the classroom teachers and
the Funderburk supporters tonight,
unless Funderburk, who has been
very seriously i'll, declines to become
candidate. But up to this afternoon
there was nothing to indicate that
Funderburk would withdraw from the
race.
Although the superintendent usu-
ally control the convention by seeing
that only those teachers who can be
depended upon to vote with them are
named as voting delegates to the con-
vention, it is reported that this time
the classroom teachers have larger
number of delegates than ever before
and that they may win out.

Relief At YOUNGSTOWN
At Jamestown, Pa, the flooo WaIefs
subsidized almost to normal.
Here and there some rivers receoeo
but over all the east the danger 10
many localities was still acute Great
est danger in New England was along
the Connecticut river, which broke
through dams, washed away many
bridges and flooded numerous towns
and cities
The Potomac, swelling swiftly and
surging oceanward after wreaking
havoc all along it's course from Cum
berland to Harper's Ferry, seriously
menaced Washington, d. c.
Washington Threatened
Officials believed the river would
rise 10 or 20 feet above normal by
nightfall, worse than the inundation
of 1889, when the river spread over
it's banks as far as Pennsylvania
Avenue.
To protect the foundations of the
Washington Monument, the Lincoln
Memorial rejecting pool and nearby
structures, relief workers hurriedly
piled up a huge wall of sandbags
along the waterfront.
The wall is only about a quarter of
a mile from the White House, but
Weather Bureau officials believed the
executive mansion was free of dang
er. There was no concern for the
Capitol
In Virginia the waters of the Shen-
apdOah likewise receded slowly, but
the danger shifted to the James river,
threatening Richmond and other
towns along it's course.
