Extension Offers College Education to All People Proving the lure of education to people in all walks of life, Dan E. Clark, assistant director of extension, cited the case of the sheep herder who took extension work, and became so interested that he enrolled in the University later and graduated. Extension courses are held in many Oregon cities, such as Al bany, La Grande, Salem, Corvallis, Hood River, The Dalles, Astoria, and Klamath Falls. Such subjects as art, education, sociology, and history are taught for $5 a 2-hour course. University credit is given, and regular faculty members teach. There is an extension cen ter in Portland, where over 100 classes are taught. Another division of the exten sion department is the correspon dence section, which has been in operation for nearly 30 years. Students take advantage of this service during the summer. As signments are sent to them, along with a list of required books. Work is sent back to be graded, and the final examinations are taken un der the supervision of the high school superintendent or principal. Most courses are three credit hours and cost $7. Frosh Glee Features Triangular Stage Set F ___ Elaborate plans for decorating the Igloo for the Frosh Glee were announced by Stan Staiger, co chairman for the dance. The fea tured attraction is scheduled as a triangular stage set in the middle of the floor. This dance is the first one of the year to have the band in the middle. Facing west, the stage will be graduated wider and higher as it goes back. Coming from the back of the stage at a 45 degree angle will be a wind tunnel blowing streamers above the floor. A picture eight feet high of “Dopey,” of Snow White fame, will also occupy a prominent position on the stage. Unusual lighting ef fects will also be used, Staiger claimed. The four corners of the Igloo will display other characters from “Snow White” with lights used to reveal imitation trees.
