A hydrogen generator ex

students. Injured were Marie

Miss Sorenson, freshman in
pre-nursing, was conducting the
hydrogen experiment, which
literally blew up in her face.
She received multiple lacera
tions on the hands and face.
Belousek, a sophomore in libe
ral arts, who was standing near
by, suffered minor cuts on the
face.
Both students were taken to
the Student Health Service, but
were released after receiving
medical attention.
Traffic Violators
Asked to Attend
Student Court
All students who have received
student traffic tickets are requir
ed to attend a meeting of the stu
dent court at 7:30 p.m. Wednes
day in the Student Union, Mike
Adams, court chairman, announc
ed Monday night.
All violators will also receive
notices, but they will not be mail
ed until after the first session of
the court. Freshman car owners
who have received tickets and who
are participating in rush week may
attend the second court session, to
be held next Tuesday in the SU.
At a meeting Monday the court
set up temporary rules of proce
dure and discussed remedies for
the traffic and parking situation
on the campus. Present at the
meeting was Jens Jensen, campus
policeman, who pointed out to the
court hazardous areas on the cam
pus and suggested remedies to
combat the situation.
Taylor's, Side
Get Surprise
Liquor Check
Four liquor inspectors staged
surprise inspections on Taylor's
and the College Side Inn, both
13th St. establishments, following
protests that some local taverns
had been selling beer to minors.
One University student, a minor,
was cited in the College Side Inn
for illegal possesion of alcohol.
John F. Alpine, owner of the Side,
tom the inspectors that the stu
dent had shown identification stat
ing that he was of age and entitled
to buy beer. But the student denied
this, and claimed that he had pur
chased the beer without showing
papers of any kind. Violation of the
liquor code carries a $250 fine and
possible imprisonment.
Hershel Taylor, owner of Tay
lor's, reported that no one was
cited in his establishment.
Student Exuberance
“Some of the present exuber
ance among the students seems to
be due to the international situa
tion as well as displeasure with
the deferred living plan,” Taylor
commented. “I’ve been in business
for 16 years, and I've never seen
anything like it before.”
Alpine declared that this prob
lem of identification is confusing,
and should be cleared up.
Identity Cards
“The University should issue
some kind of standard identifica
tion cards to its students which
would be recognized by the Liquor
Control Commission,” Alpine said.
He added that there is no one card
provided for by the commission
which will attest to a persons age.
“Many identification papers,
such as Oregon State drivers
licenses, are typewritten, and can
be easily falsified,” he declared.

Preview of the New Science Building
By Bob Thalhofer
Like a huge job of ceramics the
new $1,300,000 science building is
gradually taking shape. Carpen
try, cement, and steel crews are
all over the structure these days
building forms, putting in reinforc
ing steel, and pouring concrete.
While concrete is setting up on
one floor cr. section of a floor,
workmen rush to prepare for the
next pour. Particularly interesting
to the sidewalk foreman is the
manner in which the exterior wall
forms are lifted from a completed
section, set in place above it, and
readied for a new pour.
When completed next Septem
ber, the building will have three
m&in floors, a basement, sub
basement, and a mechanical room
on the roof. Entry to the main or
first floor will be by an imposing
st'airway and porch at the west
side of the building just opposite
the Journalism school on Univer
sity St.
According to Ralph J. Gibbs,
general superintendent, the build
ing is being constructed in three
separate sections.
The north section has an cast
west length of 119 feet 4 inches
and 67 feet 4 inches wide. South
of it, and actually separated from
it by a joint for concrete expan
sion, is the center section. This
portion of the building extends
132 feet on a north-south axis and
adjoins a south section, 102 feet
long. The middle and south sec
tions are approximately 60 feet
wide.
Overall length of the structure
is 301 feet, one foot longer than
the Hayward Field gridiron.
Crews are now in the process
of forming for the roof of the
north section; forming the third
floor of the center section; and
placing steel for the second floor
of the south end.
The mechanical room on the roof
will house air conditioning appar
atus. The sub-basement will con
tain heating ducts, now being in
stalled. Source of heat for the
building will be the present Uni
versity heating plant.
Divided into sections accord
ing to floors, the new building will
be set up as follows:
First floor; north section, chem
istry labs; center section, physics
labs, offices, and facilities; south
