years in a "temporary" building

how soon is still a matter of
speculation, according to Sidney
W. Little, dean of the school.
Plans have been drawn for re

The new system was begun
when the University entered into
an agreement with the city of
Eugene to pay the salary of one
officer provided that there would
be one man on duty in the Uni
versity district for eight hours
a day.
The agreement in effect makes
the city policemen a campus pa
trolman. but the regular officer
is better trained and more re
spected J. O. Lindstrom, Uni
versity business manager ex
plained. Furthermore the mar
shals of previous years could not
give tickets for traffic viola
tions.
The four campus patrolmen
still have the responsibility of
protecting state property from
fire and theft. They also check
the buildings to see that they
are locked at the proper times
and check the lights, but the city
police handle all actual law en
forcement work.

Little said that the school will
remain in the old press location
until an appropriation for the
proposed remodeling is made.
The move made by the school
of architecture and allied arts

made by the various departments
and schools on the campus last
spring.

turned over to the psychology
department's monkeys. The quon

chemistry department, but have
