Council Makes Possible the
Appointment of Ass't Coach
The secuving of an assistant coach,
Sol W. Wolf, has been made possible
by an appropriation of funds by the
Student Activity Council of the college. This position was vacated last
season by J. Wynn Fredericks. Mr.
Wolf was recommended to the council by Coach Harrison J. Kaiser. The
recommendation was approved and
Mr. Wolf began his wovk April 30
fov two weeks of spving pvactice.
Mv. Wolf began his coaching career by teaching the junior vavsity of
the Lock Haven High School in 1923.
The next year he accepted the position of head coach. In the two years
which followed his team held not only.
the state championship of Pennsylvania but the national championship
of the east as well when Lock Haven
defeated a Chicago High School at
Hanson Field. Mr. Wolf then went to
Williamsport for a five-year period,
then coached at Freeport, returning
to Williamsport in 1932.
He is now to assist Mr. Kaiser with
his flne team, and there are great
hopes that the splendid record held
by the Lock Haven State Teachers
College, when for three out of four
years at has held the football championship among the State Teachers
Colleges, may be maintained and even
surpassed.

The Percentage of A p p o i n t m e n t s Reveals Misapprehension in Unemployment of Teachers
The practical and sensible answer to the question, "What college shall I attend ?" is, of course, one that takes into account the
college whose graduates are sought, the college that flnds positions
for its graduates, the college whose graduates are appointed from
year to year even in times such as everybody has experienced in
the last few years.
During the last few months the Placement Service of the
Teachers College at Lock Haven has checked the employment of
its graduates in teaching positions. This has been done over what
is quite generally and in nearly all colleges said to be the most unfavorable period for this type of employment. It is probably the
worst in this respect that any of us can remember. It has been a
period when thousands of teachers have expected little more than
disappointment.
This condition fortunately is not
true among graduates of the Lock
Haven State Teachers College.
A long check-up among nearly a
thousand Lock Haven graduates in
the last flve years indicates that the
fear of unemployment in teaching, as
it is generally heard, is not entirely
true nor well founded. On the contrary in this period of wide spread
unempoyment. Lock Haven graduates
have been appointed to an amazingly
large number of positions. The percentage of appointment is so high

that it reveals something very definite
in prospective teachers' choice of a
college for their preparation.
Wide Survey of Graduates Made
Students involved in this far reaching check-up number nearly 1000. In
fact, only 3 out (rf 977 failed to reply. Such a high percentage of replies indicates the reliability of this
report. These graduates are located
in every section of Pennsylvania and
in other states.

State Finances Improvements
On College Campus this Year
During the past year the state of
Pennsylvania financed improvements
at the local college amounting almost
to seventy thousand dollars. In addition to enlarging the dining room to
accommodate seventy more students,
a new kitchen, a refrigerating plant
and a bakery were annexed to the
rear of the main building, the dimensions of which now ave 50 by 140
feet. The outside wall of the new annex is of red brick to match the brick
of the main building, and the interior
walls and floors are of attractive tiling. In the dining room the new flooring is of battleship linoleum. Another
improvement planned for the dining
room is the installation of indirect
lights.
j The kitchen has been equipped with
Westlnghouse electric ranges, roasting ovens and mixers. Tables, sinks
and steam tables made of stainless
steel have been placed in the dishI washing rooms, pantries and vegeI table room. Westlnghouse bake ovens
I and mixers have been installed in the
bakery. The refrigerating plant has
five different compartments, for meat,
i green vegetables, fruits, dairy products and one for the ice cream machine and the cutting of meats.
What was formerly the kitchen has
been remodeled and now includes a
I private dining room and rest rooms
for the college help. The new kitchen
I and bakery are among the most convenient and sanitary culinary depart\, ments of public institutions in the
state of Pennsylvania All of the
j equipment is of the latest type and
the greatest care has been taken to

D u r i n g the r e c e n t years of the d e pression, the sevvice has g o n e steadily on and in comparing its record
with the placement services of o t h e r
colleges in the United States, one
finds t h a t o u r service r a n k s very
high.
The constant, pvactical and oviginal
effovts of the divector of the tvaining
school, with the help of m a n y of the
faculty, have culminated in the success of this service.
