It was learned that $1,379,000 was spent by Uni versity students in Eugene in 1939. “This is one of the very finest courses of its type,” said Miss Aitchison. “Field work is actually done by the students themselves. Later, if we have time, we will analyze the results. “It’s interesting to find out what the students have been do ing. And it’s fun, too. In fact, I enjoy it so much that I’m doing some of the interviewing myself.” Driver Seeks Boy, Girl As Witnesses In Auto Crack-up A1 Miller, of Eugene, was driv ing two University students, a boy and girl, downtown last night, when the automobile of Charles L.
