Previous experience needed for the job is experience in working with community groups. The person should be prepared to take further courses in studies related to the work. An acquaintance with community agencies, clubs, and professional groups would be an asset. A resi– dent of the area who meets basic qualifications will be given preference. The salary range is from $470 to $525, Applications for the job can be filled out Police Work (Continued from Page 1) need in the area as far as the police department is concerned is police- commu– nity understanding. It was pointed out that the com– munity needs to better under– stand the functions of the police and the police need to humanize their relationship to the community and to in– dividuals. The group adopted a series of recommendations. One of them was to have a better screening program for police assigned to the Albina area and also to have more Negro policemen. It was suggested that a program be started to in– troduce the responsibilities of police to young people. Young men who took part in this program could accom– pany a police officer on weekends on his rounds. The possibility of hiring men over 45 was suggested. Proby said, "You may say that's too old, but we do not think so. A middle-aged man will approach the problem in a different manner and win respect of the youth, Com– bine one older policeman with the younger man and they could make a valuable rerun." Another suggestion made was the establishment of an information and community relations office in the area. This office would be staffed by a carefully selected police officer and communitypeople, as well as high school grad– uates who want to become policemen but cannot mark time until they are 21 years of age, It was suggested that such an "on the job" train– ing program, combined with study courses, could be most effective in developing a high calibre, potential police of– ficer. As the meeting closed. it was emphasized by Mrs. Sheppard that the School Community Action Committee was not saying, "We haven't a good police department." She said, ''The recommen– dations presented will make for a more effective program and assure the people of this city that the police do have their welfare at heart."

Porter, as– sistant professor of biology at Portland State College, is one of 10 persons in the U.S. to win a National Institute of Health fellowship to study parisitology in a foreign country this summer. Dr. Porter, now 28, at– tended Langston University in Clarence A. Porter Langston, Okla., and grad– uated from Portland State Col– lege in June 1962, working as a laboratory assistant and paper grader to help pay his way. He earned his masters and PhD from Oregon State University, while working as a teaching assistant in gen– eral biology. The · chance to study parasites in a tropical area this summer is exciting, Porter says. "You can study in school and work in labs, but seeing for yourself the people afflicted by diseases caused by parasites will give me background I couldn't get any other way," he said. While at Oregon State, he started a colony of germ– free rats for use in experi– ments dealing with pesticides. Durin!! the past year, he has done research and written articles about s a 1mo n– poisoning flukes and Pacific Northwest snails. From June 25 to August 23, two research groups of five men each will visit hospitals and study parasitic diseases and tropical med– icine in various countries in the Caribbean or Central America. Porter does not yet know which group he will be assigned to. Because the trip will be so strenuous, family members are not al– lowed, which means that his wife Carol will remain at their home at 5560 S. E. 63rd Ave., in Portland.
