Fourth degree AND YOU THINK you're having a hard time finding a job? Consider the case of poor John Rademaker. Rademaker, 35, will receive four degrees from Lake Superior State College in Sault Ste. Marie tomorrow, and he still can't find any work. The nine-year Army veteran and former ditch digger will receive a bachelor's degree in industrial technology and three associate degrees in electronic engineering technology, computer engineering technology, and business data processing at commencement. "I decided in 1977 that I was fed up with odd jobs and would like to live on $18,000 a year," he said. "Folks told me you needed a college degree to get that kind of money, so I signed up. Then I figured if one diploma is good, four would be even better. I still think I'm right, that somebody will come through." But even degree collecting can't guarantee big bucks. Rademaker said he has had several interviews, but no job offers. "In the meantime, there's still a lot of ditches to be dug," he philosophized. Q Trading in Playboy T HE FEDERAL TRADE Commission said its decision to cut its subscription to Playboy magazine did not have anything to do with anger at the company. According to Neal Friedman, an FTC spokesman, they never looked at the pictures anyway, adding they only look at the ads. Friedman said magazines such as Playboy are used by the agency to look for deceptive advertising; but it was decided that the ads in Playboy could be seen in other publications the FTC receives. "You may not get the center- fold, but you do get the same ads," Friedman said. FTC chairman James Miller said that Playboy was one of 47 magazines the agency is cancelling in an effort to cut spending. He said cancelling those subscriptions, and limiting the number of copies received of 99 other magazines, would save $74,000, or 18.7 percent of the agency's $400,000 publications budget.
