Abstract The article presents findings by the author on the progress made with respect to the distribution of a career pamphlet called "Young Eyes." The Task Committee on Student Personnel of the American Accounting Association was charged with the responsibility of preparing a career pamphlet describing the varied opportunities and depicting some of the challenges offered by the accounting profession. An article with the cooperation of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Institute of Internal Auditors, was published in January 1958 under the title "Young Eyes on Accounting," in an attempt to show what had been done so far and what it was hoped would be done in the future with Young Eyes. Two phases were decided by the Task Committee for distribution. In the first phase over two hundred editors of selected accounting, educational, and vocational periodicals were contacted and asked to run a news item on the nature and availability of Young Eyes. The second phase was one of following up and trying to maintain, and, wherever possible, increase the interest created during the initial phase. According to the findings 137, 340 copies of the pamphlet were distributed.

Abstract The article asserts that accounting teachers have a definite responsibility, not only to accounting students but also to the accounting profession, to keep abreast in this ever-changing accounting world. Although these teachers have certain resources available, at times they may be inadequate and as a consequence they may have to look elsewhere for assistance. When looking elsewhere perhaps the faculty fellowship, if available, will fulfill this need. The faculty fellowship is considered a definite step in the right direction, and it is his hope that other firms will initiate similar programs. In addition to acquiring new, or as the case may be, broadening old technical knowledge the fellowship is also an excellent morale builder or interest stimulator. After teaching for several years and then being exposed to the interest and enthusiasm of the various staff members, it challenges one to want to get back in the classroom and turn out the best product he can possibly produce. Teaching from the textbook from day to day may not be as stimulating as it should be, so perhaps teachers need to be reminded occasionally that they are members of a vital and dynamic profession.

Abstract Forces, both within the accounting profession and without, are constantly subjecting the accountant to ever-increasing pressures in an attempt to induce him to change some of his basic principles. Many of these forces can be attributed, either directly or indirectly to economists. It is the writer's belief that accounting and economics are more closely related and thus more interdependent than is commonly thought. It is also his belief that if the accountant and the economist were both more aware of their relationship and interdependency, both might derive mutual benefit there-from. Both accounting and economics are concerned with property and with human activities relating to the production, exchange, and consumption of this property. Generally speaking it is the point of view that differentiates one from the other. Whereas economics treats a society as a whole, of wealth in general, of the wants of people, and the satisfaction of those wants; accounting treats the individual units in society, the property of each unit, the requirements of each unit, and the efforts and accomplishments of each unit.
