Eastern Oregon College Fall Enrollment Climbs The final official tabulation of Eastern Oregon College fall en rollment Saturday stood at 1.0M, an increase of 28 $ per cent over last year, according to Dr. Lyle H.

Dr. Johnson indicated the great est percentage increase was noted in the prc-professional curriculum with a 40.1 per cent jump. This year 276 are registered in the pro gram compared with 1S7 ior the same period last year. Other curricula, with the num ber of students and percentage in crease, include: Secondary Educa tion 274 , 35.6 per cent; General Studies (Liberal Arts) 202, 29.4 per cent; and Elementary Educa tion 316, 14.4 per cent. Teen-age males who have com- pleted the full Oregon high school driver education program both I classroom and behind thc whcel! instruction have about 17 perl cent fewer violation convictions; than their untrained counterparts.! Girls with the full program have! about 28 per cent fewer violations' than those with no training. I Driver education specifically re duces involvement in more seri-) ous tupes of violations, such as reckless driving, violation of the I basic rule and failure to yield i right-of-way. Conclusions Announced These were among major con elusions announced by Gov. Mark Hatfield as the result of a state-1 conducted study of the driving! records of more than 15,000 Ore-1 gon teen agers licensed for the first time in 19"i.

Aptitude Tests Slated At Sutherlin Wednesday Richard Yurk and Mrs. Reva Bennett, Sutherlin High School counselors, will be giving scholas tic aptitude teats to 135 Sutherlin High freshmen next Wednesday. The test is administered annually to all freshmen. The purpose is to appraise the learning potentiality of the pupils who have language or reading handicaps. The test will take an hour and 30 minutes. Hatfield said the Oregon study, one of the largest of its type ever undertaken in the nation, "certain ly indicates that driver education is making a significant contribut ion to our total effort to improve Ihc safety of Oregon highways. It is hoped that additional high schools will find it possihlo to avail themselves of the driver ed ucation re-imbursement program." An earlier preliminary report re vealed significantly lower accident records also were achieved by "full" program licensees. For some reason, ''partial1 pro gram male licensees havo signif icantly worse violation record than those wilh no training at all, the report revealed. The report indicates that per haps the "partial" program male licensees have worse records be cause there is a different psycho logical impact of "classroom only instruction" on high school males as contrasted to females. Oilier findings in the study in clude: 1. Female licensees with "no" driver education were on the av erage worse drivers in terms of violations than the "partial" and "full" program female licensees. 2. Licensees who took the full program in the sophomore year had driving records at least as good as those who took the course in other years in high school. A synopsis of the report is being1 provided all high school adminis trators in the state. Future studies based on the same licensees will attempt to de termine the long-range effect of driver education, evaluate the pro gram within restricted geograph ical areas and with individual schools, and study in detail tho accident records of the drivers in the full, partial and untrained groups.
