Architect Visits
Defense Artists
In an attempt to maintain a
close contact with their school,
graduates and students of the
school of architecture and allied
arts who are now employed in
Seattle in defense work invited
W. S. Hayden, assistant profes
sor of architecture to visit them
last weekend.
Mr. Hayden stayed with the
boys Saturday and Sunday and
had an opportunity to talk to
each one of them individually.
Sixteen Designers
In the design department at
the Boeing plant 16 workers are
from the University. Other Ore
gon men are doing various jobs
in connection with defense in the
ship yards, at the Sand Point na
val station, and with the Seattle
housing authority.
The Oregon men told Mr. Hay
den that they have found partic
ular advantage in the basic train
ing in descriptive geometry and
graphics that they were given
while at the University.
Individualists
Training in the project method
used here has also helped them
adjust readily to the work pro
duction method used in industry,
the defense workers explained.
The project method encourages
each student to do his work inde
pendently.
Mr. Hayden's trip was the first
in a series of gatherings that
have been planned to come at
term intervals. An instructor
from the school will make the
trip at least that often to keep
in contact with the former stu
dents.

We re backing them up”
Marching right along with the armed
forces of this country are thousands of
telephone workers.
They work side by side with the Armv
and Navy. Wherever the need is commu
nications, you are likely to find telephone
men and their trucks and materials.
Day and night the order is for speed
and more speed.
They n ear no uniforms, these telephone
workers, but men in uniform know how
much they are putting into the Nation's
biggest job. They see it first-hand and they
know it is first-rate.
