Career Talks Will Consider Unusual Business Chances

Opportunities in non-manufacturing organizations, a field of business rich in financial return and largely untapped by college graduates, will come up for discussion in the Adams House Common Room at 8 p.m. tonight at the third of the Office of Student Placement's Career Conference series.

The job forum will treat three aspects of non-manufacturing organizations: promotion, civil research, and trade associations. Donald S. Bradshaw '44, assistant director of the Placement Office, stated this field was "wide open" for able men who were likely to command salaries from $10,000 to $18,000 in executive posts.

Three Speakers

Harold R. Bixler, Executive Vice-President of the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce, Norman MacDonald, Executive Director of the Massachusetts Federation of Taxpayers Associations, and Theodore E. Veltfort, Manager of the Copper and Brass Research Association, will be the three speakers.

Bradshaw noted the speakers should "uncover much" for those interested in this relatively unexplored field. All three reached their present positions through jobs different from the ones they are handling now. This indicates, Bradshaw said, that specific training is not necessary for work in non-manufacturing organizations.
