NEWS BITES
* IT'S OFFICIAL. President Clinton has proclaimed that March 14
through 20 is National Older Workers Employment Week. According to the
March 11 proclamation: "One of our Nation's most valuable but least
appreciated assets is its workers aged 55 and older. Older Americans
bring to the workplace sound judgment, broad knowledge and experience,
proven problem-solving abilities, and a strong work ethic." Read more
about it at the White House Website. (Net connection:
