a half of chemistry being manda
tory. As the dental school is high
ly specialized, Dr. Jump suggested
.tliat the students get a good lib
eral arts program in addition to

Dr. Jump, the chairman of the

emphasized that all professsional

that students are admitted into the

scholastic record, the amount of
previols schooling, and personal
factors.
Although it is possible to enter
dental school after two years of
preparatory work, a three-year pre
dental course is recommeended.
Students are accepted from all ac
credited schools in the state on the
same basis.
Clinical Approach

school prepares students for the
clinical approach to dentistry with j
regard for the immediate need in
Oregon and the Northwest.
.As official adviser of pre-dental
students liaison between the dental
school in Portland, Dr. Jump will
be glad to help any students who
wish to write to him. He served in
a similar capacity for four years
preceding February, 1947 when he
was liaison between the University
of California and the San Francisco
Medical Center where he headed
the department of anatomy.
According to Dr. Jump it is prob
able that arrangements will be
made to have represen tatives of the
dental school meet with University
students during the school year.
City Helps
Ease Housing
The University’s student housing
problemts have been eased this fall,
but not entirely solved, by the re
sponse of Eugene townspeople to
a current radio-press campaign in
this area urging home owners to
rent rooms to students, according
to Mrs. Alice B. Macduff, Univer
sity housing secretary.
Over 260 offers to room or board
students have been received by the
housing secretary since the radio
stations KUGN, KORE and the Eu
gene Register Guard launched their
“rooms for students” campaign
early this month. Mrs. Macduff as
serted that virtually all the offers
came as a result of the publicity
afforded the University’s housing
needs through these radio-press re
leases.
The housing secretary pointed
out that close-to-the-campus hous
ing for both single and married
students is still urgently needed,
and a few faculty members are still
searching for apartments.

Geologists
Complete
Research
Dr. Warren D. Smith, retired
head and professor emeritus of the
University's department of geology
and geography, and Dr. Lloyd Sta
ples, associate professor of geol
ogy and geography here, have re
turned to Eugene from south Coos
and Curry counties where they have
been conducting investigations
concerning the Indian lands case
preparatory to testifying at a hear
ing slated for October 20.
Appraisal Made
The month's investigation con
sisted of an appraisal of the value
of territory obtained by the United
States in a treaty with the Indians
made in 1855. The Indians were
later moved to reservations.
A decision in favor of the orig
inal owners was recently handed
down by the U. S. supreme court,
and is now in the hands of the court
of claims. The investigation made
by Dr. Smith and Dr. Staples was
ordered to estimate the value of
minerals present in the territory at
the time of the treaty.
Aids Project;
Historical work for the project
was done by Miss Nadie Strayer,
daughter of the late Senator Stray
"er of Lake county, chairman of the
3tate mining board for many
years.
Accompanying Drs. Smith and
Staples was Wilfred Wasson of the
Coquille Indians, a student at Ore
gon College of Education in Mon
mouth. Wasson was elected on the
death of h.is father in July of this
year, as chief of all the Coast In
dians.

Man with a system
Simply pick up your telephone and you
can route your voice through any one of
thousands of central offices—some with dial
mechanisms so complex they stagger the
imagination, yet so efficient they seem to
work like magic—others staffed by compe
tent, courteous operators whose standards •
of work have long been a fine tradition.
You command, in effect, millions of miles
of telephone wire and cable.
You can direct your call —one of some
110,000,000 that will he made today — to
any one of some 53,000,000 telephones
here and abroad.
The operation of this vast system is big
business. It is a complex, many-sided busi
ness in wh h thousands of college trained
men are v orking in their chosen fields—
development or research, engineering
planning, accounting or statistics, public
contacts, supe- vision of operations or other
phases of management. These men have
found highly interesting and rewarding
careers.
