Calculating Beads 30th 30th THE BIRTHDAY PARTY An Invitation

The Thirtieth Birthday Anniversary of the School of Business Ad­ ministration will be celebrated on Thursday, Jan. 26, and all alumni are invited to the party. We missed the opportuniry to celebrate the Silver Anniversary in 1944 because the University had a more important job to finish the Second World War. Since then we have added 2,337 alumni to o~ rolls and our parry should be that much bigger. The birthday will be marked by several conferences on subjects pertaining to the problems of business management. These conferences will be followed by a coffee hour in Coffman Memorial Union where alumni may meet their classmates and former professors. The climax will be the Alumni Dinner, also in Coffman Memorial Union. The program and direCtions for making' reservations are being mailed to the alumni. Guests will also be welcome. We hope to have you with us on January 26. The parry will be only In the School of Bus iness Administra­ as successful as you make it! tion statistical laboratory, James O tter­ Richard L.

I WE T from the University of Tennessee directl y into the Army. And after the war ended, a lot o'f serious thinking convinced me that the life work I wanted to follow would have to offer three things: First, a business of my own, preferably one dealing with people I'd enjoy serving; second, a business that would provide genuine per onal satisfaction as weB as a living, and third, one that would increase my income in direct proportion to my ability and wiBing- ne s to work. . The e spec.ifications added up to just one career­ life insurance. The next step wa to choose a com­ pany. So I talked with nine different organizations, and out of this survey three fa ctors emerged to help me decide on the ew England Mutual. The first factor was the caliber of ew England's men here in Memphi. The second was the company's out­ standing training program, and the third, the recom­ mendation of several success ful bu in ess men. 0 , in February, 1946, I joined ew England Mutual. During my first year I completed two ex­ acting training courses and sold a creditable volume of life insurance. Trips to company meetings intro­ duced me to the company's friendly and able nation­ wide organization, increased my proficiency, and added greatly to the enjoyment I get out of my work. ow, thanks to the knowledge of the business I have acquired, I am getting solid sa tisfaction out of serving a steadily growing clientele, and am ea rn ing considerably more than I could have earn ed else­ where on a salary.

JUSt as viccory was in sight Presidenc Vincent asked that the plan be dropped, stating clut the Uni­ versiry would provide the union the studencs wanced, and that the new library would be named orchrop Library. An alumni mistake in 1911 nOt only resulted in an increase of 50,000 in legislative appropriations bue set a new policy for future University appropria­ tion requests. The alumni had urged the regencs co make a special item of fuel and co include it in their appropriation request. Because this had never been done before, the regencs refused. In princing the Universiry appropriations request for rhe regencs, the alumni added a 50,000 item for fuel and starred it with an asterik, with a footnOte for explanation. However, in getting oue orne special copies for Senacor Elwell, the footnOte was left oue. The legisla­ ture used Senacor Elwell"s copies and subsequencly approved the appropnaClon bill-thus giving the University an increase of 50,000. Since that time all appropriation bills have carried fuel as a separate item.

SOllIETIIIIES it takes a wh ile to get your bearings. In my case, for in tance, I worked six months in a bank, a year with a casualty insurance company, and after four years in the 1 avy I put in 12 months work­ ing in an office with my father. I was dissatisfied Inth my career, and convinced that I was not cut out for office work. About this time a friend of mine began talking to me about his long experience in the life insurance bu ines . lIe was getting out of life, and out of hi \lork, exactly what I was looking for. 0 I decided to make a four-month study of his business. This convinced me that life insurance offered the kind of life and earnings I wanted, and that my friend's company the ew England Iutual, was Ideal. It policie are unu ually liberal, and it has back of it the prestige of being the fir t mutual life Il1surance company chartered in America. I signed up. I took the company' thorough train­ mg course. nd now - my time is my own, which mean l"m working harder than ever before, but it doesn't eem that way because I'm getting so much satisfactIOn out of my work. I hal'e time to eon­ tnbute to my home town through civie work, and there is still time left for golf and tennis. nd my earning, which are in direct proportion to the effo;t I put in, are con iderably higher than when I worked for someone cl e. I ha"e only one regret, and it is that I did not investigate earlier the opportunities offered by the life in urance profession.
