Marriage is Important

GETTING Job is considerably less
of a problem in the women's minds,
officials tell me, than it is in the minds
of most returning men. Said an officer
who has counseled many discharges
of both sexes: The average man IS
thinking of job as long grange
proposition. He wants to get set to
earn future income which he will
need as his responsibilities increase.
But the average woman. if she is not
already married, thinks of a job in
short range terms She wants some
thing to do until the important thing
comes along - namely, marriage.

Begins Duties

Howard G. Harrison, newly ap-
pointed recreation director for Up.
SLANT, arrived in the city Satur-
day. and today was busily engaged
in formulating a plan to continue
a city program within the city
budget.
Faced with the loss OF the federal
funds. originally granted by the
government through the Lanham
Act, Mr.. Harrison's first problem
will be to find a way to carry out
the program with funds available
here.
The recreation commission will
meet soon with the new director In
an effort to solve the situation. The
commission is counting on Mr.. Har-
rison TO draw upon his past ex-
perience as a recreation director
in the eastern states for revamp-
ing the budget.
Mr.. Harrison is graduate Of
Indiana University. where he re-
ceived his ALB degree. and holds
a masters degree from the New
York University in physical educa.
ton and adult education.
