The partnerships are de­ signed to bring industry and education into a closer as­ sociation, and to prepare youngsters to take their places in the business world after graduation. In Detroit, for example, the Chrysler Corporation has adopted Northwestern High School and provides its stu­ dents, who are predominant­ ly Negro, with jobs, vocation­ al training and help in find­ ing employment A department store in De­ troit conducts an anti-drop­ out program, provides work, and tries to develop proper attitudes, for students who will soon seek permanent jobs. ' ••• . Northern High School stu­ dents learn how to run their own business in a mock store set up for them by the Michi­ gan Bell Telephone Company. In Hartford, Conn., stu­ dents at Weaver High School are going into partnership with the Aetna Life and Cas­ ualty Company. The com­ pany has adopted Weaver High. On-site employment facil­ ities, and job training will be included in a converted warehouse, worth about $5,000,000. which General Electric will donate to the Cleveland public schools. Humble Oil Company, Houston, helps young girls from low income families to acquire stenographic and of­ fice skills, through its Earn and Learn program, and con­ ducts a work-study project for Newark, N. J., high school students. - v . , In addition, Humble head­ quarters participates in a FRI. AUGUST 29, 1969 - Vocational Office Education program, enabling students to work for the company on a half-day basis, while at­ tending school the rest of the time. It is expected that such business-education alliances will increase in the coming years, as corporations ex­ pand their activities on be­ half of education. FOR LOW-ACHIEVERS In arf effort to help low- achievers enter and benefit from college, a new program has been introduced by For­ est Park Community College in St. Louis. Instruction is individually programmed for students who have ranked low in high school and in college entrance tests. ADVANCED STUDY Nearly 3,000 graduate stu­ dents who plan to become university or college teachers will be awarded three-year fellowships for doctoral study, through the U.S. Office of Education's Bureau of Higher Education.

REGISTERS AT COLLEGE Miss Mary Beth Thelen, 1 1, Spring Grove, spent twent four hours in registration a orientation recently at Cam college, Waukesha, Wis. S and her parents, Mr. and Mr Vern H. Thelen, wereovemi* guests of the college. and even for dress-up occa­ sions. Belled, or sometimes slim, pants pair up with sweaters and shirts, and with vests and tunics as well. Long-line pants coverups may double as mini dresses. The short-short skirt, once declared to be on the way out, now seems to be here to stay -- and unlike pants, the high-rise hemline has gained acceptance in the classroom, at both high school and col­ lege, across the country. Those who wear glasses are advised to have lenses made from shatterproofglassorfrom plastic. This is especially im­ portant for children who are apt to break their glasses while at play. Slivers of flying glass often destroy eyesight ac­ cording to the Illinois Society for the Prevention of Blindness. THE 'Wrap the old ones. I'll wear these' SHOES Around Campus, It 9s *Do Your Own Thing' On Fashion Scene Plaids, pleats, corduroy, skirts, sweaters, shirts, Jumpers, pants, blazers, vests-, camelhair coats -- all the familiar fav­ orites, and especially separates, are due back in class and on campus for the fall semester. Familiar, yes, but with important differences. The differ­ ences add up to this: Fashion-wise, college girls and their high-school sisters are doing their own thing. For the class-campus crowd, putting together a special look starts with a fresh approach to fabrics and colors and con­ tinues with new silhouettes. Textures are plushy, shiny or supple, and colors show more use of pastels and navies for fall. Silhouettes present a lively variety -- belted and shaped, long and lean or long and pleated. * * * In Separates, Skirts Are Swingier, With Active Pleats, Soft Toppings Separates make a differ­ ence. Skirts are swingier, pleats are pleatier -- and the trend to the lowered waist­ line makes these flippy skirts look even more active. The long lean look gets emphasis from long, long sweaters -- pullovers that look longer for rising high to a turtleneck, cardigans that take on a 30's look from elon­ gated lines accented by belts. Jumpers join the class- campus excitement and, like skirts, get a lot of their oom- pah .from the soft-to-bold shirts and blouses that ac­ company them. Sleeves, usu­ ally long, soft and full, often deeply cuffed, mean much to these new toppings. For Leisure, Pant suits Please Gals, And So Do Short-Short Hemlines Pants costumes are one of the big fashion differences. While they are still not ac­ cepted in most high school and In many college class- rooms, they are definitely approved by the gals them­ selves, who wear pants out­ fits for leisure, around cam­ pus, for sports, in the dorm WIN NURSE SCHOLARSHIPS -- Rita Fisher (left), McHenry, and Bonnie Benson, Union, scholarship award winners from the Woman's auxiliary of the Memorial Hospital for McHenry County, have been working as nurses' aides this summer at the hospital in Woodstock.
