PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, MAY 28, 1982
PAGE 8
Dr. David Albert, Director of Career Services at Ambassador, gives this
advice to young people: "One of the best things you can begin doing in your
self-education course is to become as familiar as possible with the three­
step job-seeking approach that Mr. Armstrong employed and that Mr. Richard
Bowles describes in WHAT COLOR IS YOUR PARACHUTE?"
Increasingly, Ambassador College appears to be becoming more of a "calling"
for young people with more-than-average leadership potential. Space is
very limited. Yet, worldwide there are about 2,800 Church teens graduating
from high school each year. You can be encouraging and motivating them to
develop their talents, skills and potential.
The fall class should be a most interesting and qualified group with 82
students from the U.S., 21 students from Canada and 40 students from the
following areas: Australia, England, France, Germany, Guadeloupe, Guyana,
Jamaica, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Guinea, New Zealand, Nigeria,
Philippines, Puerto Rico, South Africa, Switzerland, Tanzania and Thailand.
We are looking forward to a very successful 1982-83 college year under the
direction of the Great Educator, Jesus Christ, Chancellor Herbert W.
Armstrong and Deputy Chancellor, Raymond F. McNair.
Thank you for your prayers and support of Ambassador College and your part
in developing the potential of the youth in God's Church.
--Richard F. Ames, Director of Admissions, Pasadena

Prestigious PT Display Space Opens Up
The World Trade Center in New York, which has 5.3 million people pass
through it each month, has finally opened up to The PLAIN TRUTH distribu­
tion. Because advertising space in this prestigious location is so much in
demand, we had been told we would have to wait years. Then just last week
we received a call from New York. We were told that a display island had
unexpectedly become available and were asked if we were still interested.
We jumped at the chance and reserved the space. This will bring the total
number of display islands in New York to three. The display island in Grand
Central Station distributes 2,500 PT's per month, and the display island in
Pennsylvania Station distributes 3,750 copies. It is expected that we will
distribute 5,000-7,500 PT' s per · month at the new location in the World
Trade Center.
