Court to Decide
Dental School Spat
IJF> ■— The Oregon State Su
preme Court will decide, soon whe
ther the University pf Oregoa
dental school in Portland wiB re
main under the University or havo
an autonomous place in the stata
system.
The Oregon State Board of
Higher Education put the school
under the University, but tbo
Oregon Dental association sued to
get independence for the school,
Circuit Judge Rex Kimmel of Sa
lem then ruled in favor of tb*.
dental association, but the state
board appealed the case.
Chancellor Charles Byrne bue
said that meanwhile, construction
of a new -dental school building
may be held up until the court
decision.
In other action at its meeting ia.
Portland Tuesday, the state boar«h
took into consideration various
methods of revising state law#
which give the state finance direc
tor the power of censorship eve?
state publications.
OSC to Teach New
Ag. Economics Course
Oregon State College won the
light to teach an economics course
from the State Board of Higher
Education Monday, at the Univer
sity's loss.
Previous to this time, only the
University could teach courses in
economics. OSC Pres. A. L. Strand
told the board the econ course is
necessary to round out OSC’s pro
gram for graduate students in
agriculture.
Acting University Pres. Victor
P. Morris, said he had no objec
tion to the agriculture course, but
said he felt it should be labeled
as an agricultural economics
course.
Presidents Testify
The course will be called "Con
temporary Economic Thought.”
Both presidents testified before
the board Monday.
Although the catalog will list
the course as limited only to grad
uate agricultural economics stu
dehts, Strand said the course is
definitely general economics.
The board gave permission to
teach the course in the feeling that
they should do everything possi
ble to help OSC build itself into
a “first class institution.”
Censorship Feared
The review power of the state
director of finance also came un
der attack at the meeting.
The discussion arose out of a
dispute between Strand and Harry
Dorman, director of the state de
partment of finance and adminis
tration. Strand insists that Dor
man's right to review and approve
all state publications amounts to
censorship power.
Strand did not accuse Dorman
of attempting to censor education
al publications, but said that the
power is there if an unscrupulous
director wanted to use it.
The state system and Dorman’s
office have worked out a gentle
man's agreement as a temporary
compromise on the review power.
However, the board did feel that
a new law is needed to remove
the possibility of censorship of ed
ucational publications. A repre
sentative of the board will meet
with Gov. Paul Patterson to dis
cuss proposed changes in the law.
