school students not too plentiful as the academic year draws to a close prospects of summer employment for high school stu dents grow bleaker officials connected with stu dent placement in the area are concerned with the dim forecast at the moment they are not ex periencing too much difficulty placing university students in summer positions although only 33 to 50 per cent of coeds have jobs but the rush for jobs is just beginning the only agency at present of ficially concerning itself with temporary jobs for the student is the canada manpower centre in brampton offering a free service under the federal de partment of manpower and im migration it serves an area cov ering brampton bramalea ge orgetown acton orangevillc shelburne and grand valley as one employee described it the centre works as a pipeline with a filter between prospect ive employer and employee special officer for the second year in a row the centre has hired a univer sity student as student place ment officer for the summer this year rick maloney a sec ond year honours psychology student at the university of western ontario was selected after he himself had applied for work with the agency he reports that since febru ary 675 students both univer- sity and high school have regi stered with the manpower cen tre the majority 500 were all high schoolers who have still to land jobs of the remaining college stu dents about 64 or roughly onei third have been supplied withj summer posts mr maloney in- dicatcs that probably 25 have managed to get their own jobs and have yet to report their good fortune right now we dont have a problem he said referring to the placement of college stu dents but if the rate of inter- ested employers continues at its present pace things look as if theyre going to be pretty tight he was alluding to the com pletion of secondary school year and the comparative dearth of employers for the better part of each day since he took on the job he has been on the phone trying to sell employers on the feasibility and availabil ity of eager students on a part time basis keep plugging of every 11 businesses and firms he calls one registers with the centre five cancel out and five take a wait and see attitude at first it was very discourag- ing but the trick is to keep on plugging he said when an employer phones in asking for a certain kind of summer help mr maloney checks with his applications and his memory for the best avail able candidate he has already most area employers run indus trial and factory concerns which cater to the male worker he cause of dirty and physical work the centre has been hard hit by the overflow out of area stu dents from cooksville port cre dit streetsville malton and hex dale who are also bidding for summer work the opening of shoppers world the dynamic complex at the corner of stecles ave and highway 10 has proved a bless ing to some otherwiscuncm ployed students mr maloney re ports many high school students who have signed on part time can count on a full summer job he said howard fullard manaccr nf the canada manpower centre was asked why this year there seemed a more concerted effort on government levels to help the student student populations are in creasing every year all over the country and this fact alone ex plains the greater numbers loo king for summer employment he said kight here in brampton we have got sheridan college which didnt exist till last year with over 900 enrolled in the school its no wonder there arc more students to handle come sum- i me r always a need i mr fullard said there has alj ways been a need to assist stu dents when it comes to summer employment the federal gov ernment has always mixed in and helped he said but its been only recently that the pro vincial government has joined forces what were working towards is community involvement where service clubs and other orraniz- ations with educational commit tees will engage their own placement services wha the government wants in do is work behind the scenes lend moral support and its tech nical knowhow this just may start i snowballing effect but for this idea to take hold there has to he a community
