Student Employment Agency Report Rise in Employment

Although no substantial increase in undergraduate employment this year is shown by figures released by the Student Employment Agency yesterday, the number of students holding regular jobs has mounted.

The positions filled at present number approximately 1065, showing an increase of only four over last year, whereas the year before that there was an increase of 272. So far, work has been given to 469 students selected from the thousand who applied at the beginning of the year.

Last year many students received extra work clearing the stadium of snow before the Brown game. Others were given special work when R. H. White and Co. employed a large number of students in their packing department before a sale. Although it was impossible for these positions to be filled this year, there has been a corresponding increase of regular jobs for entertainers.
