Ed Nestigen, national program secretary of the YMCA, will be the principal speaker at the con ference. This is the first conference of this type ever to be held on the Oregon campus, according to Nan Mimnaugh, co-chairman of the conference. She stated that the principal purpose of the conference is to allow student and executives of the YM and YW to meet and exchange ideas. While here, the delegates will meet and talk to Nestigen, who is expected to give them ideas on how their associa tions may improve their programs. Schools expected to send dele gates to the event are Oregon State college, Lewis and Clark, Portland State, Willamette, Lin field, Southern Oregon College of Education, and Oregon College of Education. she said. “The board sets the tone and standards of state govern ment.” The board of control is composed of Governor McKay, Newbry and Walter J. Pearson, state treasurer. It was formed in 1913 by legislative act and charged with the management of state in stitutions as its primary function. Mrs. Green criticised recent ac tions of Newbry in selling school lands “for a fraction of assessed evaluation.” The sale of Oregon shipyards by the board of control and the reduction in assessed valu ation of that property by the state tax commission, under the board of control, was discussed by Mrs. Green. She thought the sale price too low ar.d the reduction unneces sary. Moral Tone Concern “More women have to get into politics," she said. “Women are more concerned with the moral tone of the nation.” She considers coming election issues to be “hon esty and integrity in government." “The most important bill deal ing with education in Oregon,” ac cording to Mrs. Green is the uni fied school district bill. Citing an editorial appearing in the Oct. 5 edition of the Portland Journal which stated the conclusion of the interim committee's study of the question she said that Oregon has a complex, inefficient, uneconomi cal and educationally damaging school district organization setup. The unified school districts would consolidate school administartion and would result in a wiser spend ing of money, Mrs. Green added. NO DEER NEXT YEAR The end of a perfect hunt.
