Farrell Jr., secretary of state, has announced that all Oregon drivers’ licenses numbered below SR-132,000 are void, and li cense numbers between 5R-132,000 and 5R-165.000 will expire this month. “No individual motorist will receive a mailed notice when his license expires,” Farrell said. “He must apply of his own accord at the right time.” All drivers’ permits issued be fore June, 1947 bear the “5R” pre fix. Schedules showing the date of expiration of these permits are available free from service sta tions, police stations, sheriffs’ of fices, and driver’s license clerks and examiners. Road checks of licenses are be ing continued. “There is no point in delaying your application,” a li cense spokesman said, “since a new license will expire at the same time, regardless of whether taken out on the proper date.” Dance Decorations To Be Inspected Before any house dance can be held on the campus, the bureau of fire prevention must inspect the decorations and give its approval. Ordinance No. 8874 gives the fire marshal authority to order haz ardous decorations or conditions removed before the holding of any public gathering. The bureau receives a calendar each week of the coming activities on the campus and each house or dormitory will be inspected before its social function. A person in charge of a house can be held liable for criminal neg ligence should a fire occur and someone lose his life as a result of using flamable decorations.
