Educators Petition
For Salary Increases,
Retirement Program
A committee of professors repre
senting all schools in the state
system of higher education Mon
day petitioned the State Board of
Higher Education for 20 per cent
salary increases and a more ade
quate' retirement program.
Charles G. Howard, professor of
law, and Thurman S. Peterson,
associate professor of mathejna
tics, represented the University
on the professorial committee.
In speaking of the requested
salary increases, which would
amount to an estimated 2 million
dollars on a two year basis, How
ard compared the present economic
. status of Oregon’s state college in
structors with skilled workmen.
The average citizen’s dollar in
come has gone up 2 y2 times since
1939, Howard said, while the in
come of plasterers, painters and
electricians who work for the Uni
versity is up as much as three
times. But the dollar return to
college teachers has increased less
than 1% times, Howard reported.
The professor said Oregon lag
ged far behind other states in col
lege salaries. They introduced gov
ernment statistics as proof that
their salaries are now below pre
war standards. A 20 per cent in
crease, the professors stated,
would merely bring salaries back
to the purchasing power level of
pre-war days.
Miners Get More
Peterson indicated that profes
sors’ salaries have gone down even
in comparison with the secretaries
who work with them.
Arthur Hughes, professor of en
gineering at Oregon State Col
lege, informed the board that the
present pension system gives long
time teachers less than one fourth
of his salary on retirement. John
L. Lewis’ miners get more on re
tirement than do Oregon’s state
professors, the committee told the
board.

leads to marriage keynoted the
second lecture, “Dating,” by Dr.
and Mrs. O. R. Chambers Tuesday
night in the YW and YMCA spon
sored Marriage and Family lecture
series.

between two persons of the op
posite sex, not necessarily, pre
arranged.
Everybody Does It
“Biological development and
‘everybody does it’,” were two of
the reasons given by Mrs. Cham
bers for dating. Exploritory dates,
which are merely for personal
prestige and not mutual pleasure,
were discussed by Dr. Chambers.

FM broadcasting- will begin over KWAX at the end of two
weeks if installation of equipment is completed, 1). Glenn Starlin,
instructor in radio and speech, announced Tuesday.
A transmitter, the latest piece of apparatus to arrive, was re
reived shortly after 1 p.m. Tuesday at the radio studios in Villard.
Roger Houglum, presently in charge of the Eugene public
school station, KK\ A1, will su
pervise the installation.
No Antenna
“Our only setback is that we
have no antenna as yet; but
since it is comparatively simple
to attach, all other pieces will be
set up first in hopes that it will
have arrived at the end of two
weeks,” Starlin added.
The Gates Radio Company in
Quincy, 111. has been notified that
there is no antenna in the ship
ment, and if it does not arrive
within a reasonable amount of time
one will be purchased from another
manufacturer.
“FCC approval will be necessary,
however, if we have to substitute
for an iteirt specified in the appli
cation for our FM license, such as
the antenna,” Starlin explained.
“In such a case we will get special
dispensation privileges.”
Installation Plans Discussed
. Starlin and Houghlum met Tues
day night to discuss installation
and broadcasting plans. The first
step will be to get the transmitter
mounted and the co-axial cable
attached from it to the roof, where
the antenna will be placed.
The transmitter itself resembles
a deep-freeze refrigerator. It is
eighteen cubic feet of highly sen
sitive apparatus encased in a gray
