GO Rubber Roads Tried In Many States CHICAGO <U.P) Rubber roads are becoming quite common, in the experimental stage at least. The American Public Works Association reports ^hat an in creasing number of cities and states have been giving rubber loads a tryout since the end of the war. Typical of such experiments is the newly-laid stretch of rubber road on Constitution Avenue in Washington. D. C. In Massachusetts, highway builders announced plans for ex periments with asphalt-rubber top ping on an additional 100 miles of roadwuy in various parts of the state. Highway engineers currently arc trying powdered rubber as a mix with asphalt to provide smoother roads while at the same time giv ing a less slippery surface. Engineers believe rubber will help overcome asphalt's chronic softness in summer and brittleness in winter and will tend to allow for expansion and contraction with the seasons. Akron, O., laid the first section of test rubber road in this country in 1917. Virginia, with a 1.000 foot stretch of rubber road near Rich mond, was another pioneer. Other test sections arc being built in Texas and on state high ways in Ohio. Cities which have stretches of rubber street include New York, Columbus, O., and Bal timore, Md.

Washateria r Open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. six days a week Science Exhibit Now on Display Am a part of the University’s 7.r>th anniversary celebration the library's science division has ar ranged an exhibit, "75 years of Science at the University of Ore gon” in the circulation lobby of the main library for the remainder of January. The main purpose of the exhibit is to contrast scientific literature of 1876 with the publications of today. Both domestic and foreign periodicals arc placed in the ex hibit because of their importance as source material for comprehen sive study in any field of science. A large increase of scientific publications since 1876 is evident in the display. Broadening of sci entific interest has caused many general science periodicals to split into independent sections or to gradually turn toward specializa tion. Microfilm and microcards arc shown as examples of the use and preservation of scientific ma terials otherwise unavailable. Kxampies of laboratory equip ment used in early University classrooms are also on display. Pictures of early classrooms pro vide further evidence of the type of work done at that time. A picture of Dcady Hall and the nearly completed science building may also be seen as a contrast be tween old and new.
