DELEON
 AIDING COLLEGE
East Farm Resident On
 Columbia Committee For OcCupatiOnal Conference

Columbia University will open its fifteenth annual series of Occupa- tional Conferences in late February with Edward A. DeLeon of 153 East Farm street, serving on the commit tee of undergraduates which aids the University Employment office in conducting the programs.
 Three VColumbia educational units, Columbia college, for male undergraduates; Barnard College, for women students; and the School of Business; participate in the Con- ferences, which seek to make the latest information on career oppor- tunitieS available to the University community.
 The series features prominent speakers from many fields of busi- ness and industry with increasing emphasis being laid on job oppor- tunitieS in government service. The speakers outline the requirements of their respective fields and com ment on the genral strategy of job seeking.
 DeLeon, a senior in Columbia col lege, is serving his second year on the Conference Committee. Holder of the Class of 1921 scholarship, he belongs to Sachems, secret senior service honorary.
 Columbia's placement bureau pro- notes undergraduate attendance al the Occupational meeting because they aid students in making a rather definite career choice by the end of the Junior year. This, in turn, makes it easier to place stu dents following graduation.

Old Factory
Suggestion Of Site Rejected By State
 Education Officials
Senator Egan Proposed Plant In Interest Of Economy Sponsors Still Hopeful Of Favorable Action
 To Seek New Building For Training Students

had ruled that it was not feasible to use factory buildings for school purposes, even a trade school.
 The Waterbury legislator said that he was told that if the plan had been approved the city would have been given the old factory site as an outright gift or for payment of nominal sum. It is understood that the property is now owned by the Chase Brass & Copper Go.
 The idea was to save money, Sen- ator Egan pointed out, but he in- timated that he himself didn't ap- prove of it, but favored the estab- ishment of a brand-new and mod ern institution, such as has been contemplated in connection with utilization of the David Porter will bequest which provides $15o,000 for establishment of co-educational institution in Waterbury and also includes a plot of land near the corner of East Main and the Meri- dent road.
 Waterbury legislators are sure that if the Legislature approved. the state trade school plan the city can secure a favorable court action to have the Porter will interpreted so that the trust funds will be made available.
