P:New York's State Board of Regents ruled that the Communist Party is subversive, thereby disqualifying Communists from employment by the New York public school system under the provisions of the Feinberg law. The Feinberg law, passed in 1949 and upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1952, makes membership in subversive organizations a disqualification for service with the school system. Said the board: "We arise . . . convinced that force and violence are a sine qua non of the Communist faith."

P: A survey of 145 major companies by the Midwestern Placement Association resulted in good news for college seniors, food for thought for economists: next year's college graduates can expect better-paying jobs than ever before. Sixty-four companies reported that they would give higher starting salaries than they gave this year; not one company expected to pay less. Inexperienced graduates taking technical jobs (engineers, chemists, physicists) can expect monthly salaries of from $301 to $375; nontechnical beginners might have to take as little as $276 a month.
