In Dads Lounge on Physics

the fields of chemistry and phy

Ordinance Snags
Fete Bleachers
A temporary crisis in the stag
ing of the Canoe Fete arose
Monday when the committee
learned that the wooden bleach
ers lining the sidewalk at the
west end of the fete area had
to be moved because they were
obst meting sidewalk traffic.
Eugene City Manager Robert
Finlayson informed Bob School
ing, general co-chairman, that
a city ordinance forbids blocking
the sidewalk. The wooden bleach
ers overlapped the sidewalk area.
Pleas to allow the bleachers
to remain where they were until
Saturday went unanswered.
Wearily the committee, which
had just finished raising the
heavy wooden structures, started
to tear them down.
The bleachers are now being
moved to the east end of the fete
site. The switch involved com
plete replanning of the stage and
lighting by Jerry Maxwell, prop
erty set-up chairman, and Gor
don French, technical director.
in the Dads Lounge of the Stu
dent Union.
He is I. Prigogine, professor of
theoretical subjects in chemistry
at the University of Brussels.
He will deliver a University lec
ture on "New Aspects of the
Thermodynamics of Irreversible
Processes.”
Prigogine, the winner of this
year’s Belgian Francqui Prize for
physics, is one of the main con
tributors to the field of thermo
dynamics of irreversible pro
cesses.
He is often invited to lecture
in foreign countries, and cur
rently is on a lecture tour in the
United States. During the fall
semester of 1954, he was a visit
ing lecturer at Harvard.
He also has spoken in India,
Israel, Paris, and in British uni
versities.
Prigogine is a member of the
Royal Academy of Sciences in
Belgium. He was one of the few
invited contributors to a confer
ence on the fundamentals of
theoretical physics in Japan in
1953.
A coffee hour and reception
will be held in the Dads' Room
after the lecture for Prigogine
and Norman Davidson, visiting
professor of chemistry from the
California Institute of Technol
ogy.
