FINEST TRADITION
Mil trace Undergoing Study
To Restore Beauty, Value
By Sam Vahey
Emerald Managing Editor
Oregon Millraee, the Univer
sity'* finest tradition since the '
turn of the century, is now under- j
going a study that is intended
to restore much of its beauty and
recreational value, which have
been partially lost dining the;
years immediately following
World War II.
The first step in a plan of
restoration took place during
Junior Weekend, spring term
1955, when the Canoe Fete was
staged on the Millraee waters for :
the first time in 14 years.
As student and faculty inter
est was much aroused by this
celebration, the ASUO senate.
Student Union hoard, and Edu
cational Activities Budget hoard
approved the spending of funds
for an independent engineering
study during the summer, and a
reereational program for the race
this fall.
Wilson Awaits Results
The study has taken longer
than expected, however, and Uni
versity President O. Meredith
Wilson has awaited the results of
this survey before giving final
approval to the allocation of stu
dent funds on a recreation pro
gram, which is to include, as a
start, a boathouse and canoes.
According to J. Orville Lind
strom. University business man
ager and member of the student
faculty millraee committee, Oct.
1 has been set as a tentative dead
line for the completion of the
engineering study.
Flow Too Slow
Briefly, the problem faced in
a plan of restoration for the mill
race include low water level, slow
flow of water, and unsanitary
Conditions resulting from the slow
flow.
The slow water flow may be
attributed partially to the wash
ing away of the river bank on
the north end of the intake dam.
partially to the 3ft inch outlet
pipe, and partially to a repair
section in the upper channel
which was constructed when a
portion of the channel dike
washed out in high water in the
1940's.
To overcome these problems,
the engineers are considering the
possibility of pumping water into
the millraee. Those pumps would
he installed below the dam and
would do away with a need for

the flam and part, of the upper
channel.
Outlet Considered
Another consideration of the
engineer* is the construction of
an additional outlet, midwav
through the courae of the mill
race. Such an outlet now exists
that carries part of the over
flow to the Willamette river, be
fore parsing the millrace houses.
