UT Swimmers Lead SEC Edged Down WASHINGTON (AP) The nation's unemployment rate edged down from 6 per cent to 5.8 per cent of the work force in February, the government said today. Secretary of Labor J.

D. Hod gson described the drop as a heartening sign of economic improvement, but the government's chief job expert said "the employment picture was sort of mixed." "It is an additional indication from the labor market that the economy is moving in a favorable direction," Hodgson said of the jobless drop. However, Asst. Commissioner Harold Goldstein of the Bureau of Labor Statistics pointed to a drop in employment and the average work week and unchanged worker earnings as adding up to a mixed picture. Goldstein also told newsmen the number of men employed was the lowest in two years and the total of very long-term unemployed, 27 weeks or more, was the highest in seven years.

Hodgson said the unemployment rate dropped for the sec ond month in a row from De cember's nine-year high of 6.2 per cent, and called It "indeed heartening." He did not com ment in his written statement on other figures in the report. Although the average pay check was up 5.2 per cent the past year, rising living costs wiped out the gain in purchasing power. The actual number of jobless Americans remained virtually unchanged at 5.4 million, but including allowance for normal seasonal factors the Bureau of Labor Statistics figured it as a drop of 185,000. Total employment, while ed ging up slightly to 77.2 million, also represented a decline on a seasonal basis, the report said, The bureau said total unemployment has dropped 300,000 HOLLYWOOD (AP) The voice the newsmen heard was shallow, at times halting.

Other showings are planned later this year in San Francisco, Dearborn, and in England, Germany, Yugoslavia and France. Matty Kemp, a Pickford busi ness associate, told reporters she long refused permission to show her films because "she felt the present generation might ridicule them, might laugh in the wrong places." "She bought up as many as she could with the intention of destroying them," Kemp said "Buddy and I convinced her that while she owned the films physically, they belonged to the world." She donated some to the Li- brar'' of Congress. JItmp said Pickford showings last November in Washington attracted capacity audiences, 80 per cent of them in their 20s.
