A number of courses will be taught by ex perts in charge of remedial cours es in connection with the clinic. In addition to supervising the clinic, Dr. Montgomery will teach a class, “Diagnostic and Remedial Tech niques,’’ which will pay special at tention to the evaluation of in struments recently developed for use in this field. Two outstanding workers in the field of “backward” children from other schools will teach classes. Dr. S. C.

Individual instruction, based upon the needs of each pupil as revealed ! in diagnosis i» given by experi | enced teachers working under the close supervision of the clinic staff. Work in speech correction will also be given at the clinic this year. The clinic does not limit itself to kinesthetics or any other meth od of correcting difficulties of chil dren, it is pointed out by Dr. Montgomery. Difficulties of each child are diagnosed and the most | effective method of correction is then applied. Many Inquiries To date more than 100 inquiries, i many of them from other states, have been received concerning the J clinic, she said. The clinic was started in the summer of 1928 by the late Dr. B. : W. DeBusk of the University of Oregon and Dr. Grace Fernald of the University of California at Los Angeles. The clinic has grown steadily and is now conducted throughout the regular school year ; as well as during the summer. Dies in Crash Mrs. Henry W. Salisbury was l on a transport plane which crashed over California mountains. Fish-But No Rods Invade Deady Bowl Darting in and out between the mosses and rocks of their aquarium, the guppyes, red moons, helleri, and other dimin utive tropical fresh-water fish that J. E. Herbertson, of the zoology department, keeps in i his research room ih Deady hall, need have no fear even if the fishing season is well under way in the rest of the country. These fish, which were shipped in containers from islands in the tropics, are kept in water that is warmed to about 70 degrees. Tropical fish are not hatched from eggs like most other fish, but are born alive, and the new ly born fish resemble their par ents in every detail, except that they are a trifle smaller in size. Mr. Herbertson feeds these fish food but he finds that with this diet exclusively the brilliant colors of the fish seem to fade, ; and it is necessary to give them ; occasional endocrine gland stim ulating food in order to preserve their color. Two Field Trips To Be Made Today Two field trips will be made by geology and geography students this weekend. Members of J. C. Stovall’s field geography class will go to the coast Sunday to compare physiographic features of that region with the territory around Eugene. The quicksilver mines at Black Butte, Oregon, are the destinations of a group of students making the trip today accompanied by Warren D. Smith. EXAMINER HERE A state examiner of operators and chauffeurs will be in Eugene today between the hours of 8 and 15. His offices will be in the .Knights of Pythias hall. Men Plan Study Trip A study of geological formations in the Wallowa mountains of northeastern Oregon will be the purpose of a field trip to be made , this summer by an expedition sponsored by the state department of geology and mineral industries. University of Oregon men who will be included in the group are Lloyd Ruff, Fred Hoffstead, Wil bur Greenup, Herbert Harper, and Warren D. Smith. Students from Oregon State college, and men from the state department, includ ing Ray Treasher, a University graduate, will complete the group. Leaving the first of July, the group will go to Joseph and pack in from there up the north side of the Wallowa range, and will work at an altitude of between 6,000 and 10,000 feet. Besides map ping the geological formations of as much of the region as can be covered, they will also study pos sibilities of mining in the Wal lowas. They will return in early September.
