his needs and desires to prepare
him to work in the changing in
dustry of agriculture.
Have you taken a look at the
opportunities in the dynamic in
dustry of today's agriculture? You
will find thousands of jobs, many
of them relatively unknown few
years ago.
Teachers Wanted! = For high
schools, colleges, the agricultural
extension service in foreign lands
and industry. This could be an adj
vertisement in any newspaper.
Never before has the demand
for teachers been so great" re-
ports Ralph Barwick, assistant
professor of Agricultural Educa-
tion at the University of Delaware.
Your work is practical, and the
most exciting challenge of all is
the call to leadership. 1t deals
with the vast and constantly
changing science of agriculture,
Barwick explains. Much of your
time is spent out of doors in the
country, working with farm
people.
Many agricultural industries,
looking for teachers to train its
employees, turn to the agricul-
tural colleges for capable instruc-
tors.
Businesses and companies which
supply agriculture with machinery,
fertilizer, seed, pesticides, and in
secticides are turning more and
more to the agricultural colleges,
for employees who will eventually
Milford chronicle., 1962-12-21

manage their companies. These
students need general b a k
ground in agriculture along with
training in economics and busi-
ness administration as we'll as
courses which prepare them to
work with and handle people.
According to the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, industry and
business, together, employ fifteen
areas.
Government agencies and state
departments are hiring agricul-
tural graduates in increasing num-
bers. The largest employer is the
federal government, in C i u d n g
Farmers Home Administration,
Forestry Service Soil Conserva-
ton Service, and other service and
regulatory agencies.
Foreign service has opened new
fields of opportunity to agricul-
tural graduates in recent years.
Again the principle employer is
the federal government.
Another branch of international
service which college graduates
may desire is the peace corps.
These people build, :. teach, an
work in newly-developed area S
throughout the world
college graduates k il in
writing, speaking or visualizing
ideas effectively can find many OPP
portunities in agricultural journal
ism," explains John Arnold, agri-
cultural editor at the University of
Delaware.
"In recent years, every qualified
graduate could choose from six to
eight jobs, with starting pay equal
to that in other fields, but with
added expectation of rapid ad-
ing to apply himself. No where is
there more excitement or oppor-
tunity to keep up to date with
every aspect 1of agriculture, Ar
mold adds.
There'll always be a demand for
home economists to help teach the
really important and lasting val
ues in family life, says Janet Co
blentz, nutrition specialist here at
the University.
Ask a young woman who is
about to choose her life's work
what the ideal career would be
like and these are some of the in
gradients she might suggest:
It would have to be an interest
ing occupation that pays well and
is much in demand. 1t should be a
field in which the fact that she is
a woman is an asset, not a handi-
cap, and it ought to be a growing
occupation that reflects the con-
slant change in modern life.
All of that and more can be said
of jobs in home economies. Today,
home economics is a full-fledged
profession that reaches in many
directions.
Opportunities exist in every
state for home demonstration
agents, Miss Coblentz explain s.
They bring new homemaking
ideas, principles, and techniques,
and the latest research findings to
the families Of her community
Salaries of home economic grad
yates are usually between $4,000
and $4,000, depending on the 10
cation and type of job.

Lost CO|Ony's New Theater

For those attending performances of
the drama, it will be like moving back to
the days of Queen Elizabeth l. The new
Waterside Theater is being built with
emphasis on the Elizabethan style of
architecture.
The roof lines of the buildings are
not plumb. They ripple, much as a wave
on Roanoke Sound, thus following the
methods Of building used in Colonial
days.
When the first settlers came to Amer
lea, their building materials were the
huge forest trees, and in shaping the roof
poles, little effort was made to keep
them true.
If the roof pole tree turned out to be
crooked, the roof went on crooked, But
the wavy lines did not mean a construc-
ton weakness. Some of those roofs are
standing today.
Even the lighting towers around the
theater stage have been camouflaged be-
hind an Elizabethan facade They could
have been built 375 years ago for prOtec.
ton against the arrows of hostile Indian
tribes.
The new organ loft and control room
are of timber and daub construction. The
sturdy theater seats, for 1,750 viewers,
slope upward from the stage
The first waterside theater was a
makeshift arrangement which lasted
until it was destroyed by hurricane
Donna in the fall of 1850.
The theater again was made ready
for last seasons drama, but it became ap-
parent that new and lasting structure
would have to be built. So last fall work
on the present theater was begun.
The mystery of the Lost Colony has
never been solved. Many theories per
sist, but no records have been found that
would tell the fate of the men and women
who first settled Roanoke Island

That control came to an end
this week.
Butler stepped out of con-
tention before the primary for
personal reasons. J. Glenn

ing the Senate race. Earlier, he
was a member of the House

Split Council
Elected in
POOlesville

POOLESVILLE = All but
10 of Poolesville's 1873 regis
tered voters went to the polls
in Tuesdays Town Council
race to elect a split Council
which may leave the towns
future as clouded as before.
Rather than the clean sweep
sought by two sharply opposed
groups, the new Council will
contain two incumbents and
three from a slate of recently
formed opponents.
Gerald Morningstar, a 29-year-
old civil engineer who works
for the City of Rockville, ap-
parently showed an important
degree Of acceptability to both
sides as he polled 119 votes
20 votes more than the top man
on the incumbent ticket.
Morningstar ran with four
other candidates who made up
the Maturity and Integrity
Party" a group quickly formed
by annexation opponents after
defeating an administrations
backed move to expand the tiny
towns boundaries.
Moving into office with
Morningstar on the opposition
slate were Mrs. Charles EN-
maj KOhlhOss with SO votes
and Eugene Halmos jr., with
"a votes.
The incumbents, led by Mayor
Billy Bliss, succeeded in placing
two men on the five-member
panel. They are Fred Campbell,
who received SO votes, and
George Hillard, who got Sc
votes.
Mayor Bliss was pushed out
of office with his SO to 81 loss
to Halmos.
Other candidates and their
vote totals were Bertha Stevens,
4S; Jimmy Titus "a member of
Bliss slate), II; Carol Chiswell,
81; Robert Grimes, "a; and Mrs.
Reta Marshall, ~.
Mrs. John r. Hall, one of the
leaders in the formation OF the
opposition slate, called the split
of the slate, "a victory for u.s."
But she was quick to say
she hopes the political fight
will be forgotten soon. I'VE
never fought each other per.
sonally,' she said, 1--WE fought
on issues"
I'VE will go right to work and
clean up Poolesville," she prom.
Used.
Morningstar-the most likely
winner to be picked by fellow
Councilmen as the new mayor
said he thinks the rift which
has split his hometown in the
past can be worked out all
right"
But Bliss withheld any com.
ment on his future position.
I'll have to wait and see what
happens" He Indicated he was
not happy with the results
because of a "smear campaign
which l didn't appreciate"
He said he doubts that Morn
ingstar will be mayor despite
his heavy majority. "They (the
opposition party told me they
had already selected Halmos for
the job" he said. Mrs. Hall
denied this.
