Students graduating from col- lege here this spring and sum- mer face probably the worst employment crisis in at least 15 years, local college officials said yesterday. The placement situation for graduates is "dismal and dis- astrous" according to officia ls at UCSD, San Diego State and , the University of San Diego. "I don't think there has been as pessimistic an employment condition fo r college graduates since .the depression." said Dean Spraiue, director of placement lor the University of San Diego. Liberal arts graduates tHls January are 'accepting jobs as hamburger cooks, political sci- ence graduates have taken jani- torial ·jobs. and girls with teach- ing diplomas are doing secretar- ial work, a survey disclosed.

"We contacted 300 national companies lo come on the campus this year. The majority of them were cool," Sprague said. "Of the 300 only 40 will come to USD this year to interview graduates." At San Diego Slate - which will put an estimated 4,000 grad- uates into the job market this year - the number of employ- ment recruiters coming to the campus has dropped from 40 to 50 per cent. Dr. Edward Webb, director of placement there, said "job op- portunities are off in just about every area. "We will have 4,000 graduates in estimated numbers. I don't know how many of those will come to us for jobs. Of the ones who come to as for job place- ment and counseling, I doubt if we will be able to find jobs for half of them. :VIA Y BE OPTIMISTIC "And that may be very opti• mistic considering the place- ment picture.

by the world. "Sex is not something you do. It's some- thing you are," said the priest. He said that although sex was designed to express hu- man love, be procreative and pleasurable, it also has liini- tations. Unless sexuality is inte- grated into a value system in- corporating man's ideals, it can cause him to deviate from them, Father Imbiorski said. He said that wile children in today's rapidly changing world can not be given clear- cut guides to action, they can be taught general principles and how to make judgments. He said that in the early centuries of the church people often were told that sex was little more than an evil to be tolerated. Thomas Aquinas, Francis DeSales, Alphonsus Liguori and other theologians, he sug- gested, laid the foundations I~ contrary view which

Three character- istics of the new attitude to- ward sex are the realizations that sex is good, it is part of the human persone.lity and that it has its limitations, says the Rev. Walter Im- biorski. Father Imbiorski, director of the Cana Conference of the Chicago Roman Catholic Archdiocese, addressed some 75 San Diego Diocese Con- fraternity of Christian Doc- trine (CCD) teachers this week at the University of San Diego. The talk was one on a series designed to prepare CCD teachers for the sex edu- cation program due to start next fall in parochial schools and CCD classes. CCD conducts religion classes for school children and adults in the four-county San Diego diocese. The Cana Conference is the Chicago diocese's marriage and family life counseling' agency. Father Imbiorski also is administrator of the Chicago diocese sex educa- tion program and co-author of its syllabus, "Becoming a Person." The program to be used in San Diego Diocese schools, grades 1-12, is the "Education in Love" program developed l by the Rochester, N.Y. Catho- m11jor
