And Senators In Good Jobs By EUGENE J. CADOU United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Old United States senators and governors of Indiana don't “just fade away.” They stir their stumps and generally land pretty good jobs after their terms of office have expired. The fate of these former high officials has come to public attention in recent days because of largely political criticism of former Sen. William E. Jenner, who beame president of the St. Lawrence Seaway Corp., an organizatoin designed to deal in real estate near Burns Harbor in Porter County and elsewhere. In the recollection of the writer, many former senators and governors have refused to rest on their laurels or savings in public offices and have taken up other careers, highly successful in the main. For instance, former Gov. Warren T. McCray went back to the farm after his farm land speculation legal troubles. Former Gov. Ed Jackson went into the orchard business in a remote location after a tempestuous series of political and legal ailments. The insurance business attracted the talents of two erstwhile governors. Harry G. Leslie became president of a life insurance company and Henry F. Schricker was chosen president of a fire and casualty insurance concern after a temporary term as vice-presi-dent of an Indianapolis bank. Former Gov. Paul V. McNutt served as high commissioner to the Philippines and as federal security administrator, ran for president and ended his days as a prosperous attorney in Washington. Washington likewise appealed to M. Cilfford Townsend, who became connected with the Department of Agriculture following his

tenure as governor. Later he was an official of a commercial concern manufacturing soybean prod-

Gates has a highly lucrative law practice, including profitable railroad cpmpany clients. Former Gov. George N. Craig now lives in Washington. He has. law offices there and in Indianapolis, but spends little time in the Hoosier capital. It has been the same story with respect to Hoosiers who have served in the Senate. James E. Watson remained with his old cronies in Washington and practiced a bit of law on the side. His colleague, Arthur R. Robinson, has law offices in Washington and Indianapolis*. Sherman Mniton, now in retire-

ment at his NeW- Albany home, reached the heights In the judicial branch of the federal government, with service on the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago and on the U.S. Supreme Court. Samuel D. Jackson returned to his expansive law practice in Fort Wayne. Jenner’s venture into the real estate business is only one facet of his civil career. He and Jack Brown, former federal district attorney, are partners In an up-and-coming law office in Indianapolis with a branch in Bedford, Jenner's home town. As for our present governor, Harold W. Handley, it has been reported that he now is considering several attractive offers from industrial concerns when his term expires in January, 1961. So it would appear that none of these celebrities has been on relief and most have rung the bell in civil life. Motor vehicles in the U.S. travelled a total of 665 billion miles during 1958, compared with 628 bililon miles the year before. . ~ _ - • MARATHON WINNER — John J, Kelley of Boston wears the victor’s laurel wreath in Yonkers, N.

College Admissions Center Is Unique By EVERETT R. IRWIN United Press International CHICAGO (UPI) - A unique clearing house for' high school graduates who want to go to college and colleges who need more students in doing a brisk business this spring. It expects even a bigger rush before classroom doors swing open next September. The College Admissions Center, which reopened May 1 for its second summer of operation, already has received more than 2,500 letters of inquiry from students (or their parents) having difficulty in gaining admission to college. “Letters are coming in at the rate of 100 to 150 a day,” Dr. Gary L. Mills, director of the center, said. “Over 350 students actually have registered and paid the $lO fee.” Mills predicted that from 1,200 to 1,500 college candidates will use the center’s services before the new academic year begins. Charge $lO fee About 80 colleges and universities already have enlisted the center’s services in finding them prospective students. Mills anticipates that 125 or 150 colleges will seek students through the center before the summer, ends. . Theadmission Center located at Glenbrook High School, in suburban Northbrook, is the only one of its kind in the nation. It is the brainchild of the Association of

College Admissions Counselors. In its fledgling year, the center was financed under a $5,000 grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. This year the non - profit agency, still sponsored by the ACAC, Is paying its own way bymeans of the $lO fee charged each student who registers and a fee charged colleges that use its mail service to obtain names of likely future students. Most of the registrations and letters of interest this year have come from the East—New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey—indicating, Mills said, that most eastern schools already are over-ap-plied. Rural Area Vacancies The center also is getting many inquiries from California and Florida, and letters have come from Americans in Southern Rhodesia, Venezuela. Malta, Germany, Canada, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and The Netherlnds Antilles. “These people want their children to attend American colleges,” Mills said. “But they’re isolated from the American scene and a little at a loss as to what to do.” Colleges from 26- states in all parts of the United States are searching the admissions center files for prospective students, Mills said. Some are prestige schools looking for top students, scholastically, who will meet every requirement they have. Most of the demand comes from medium or small colleges. Most of the classroom and dormitory space is in rural - area colleges in the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Okla-
