Infirmary Business Booms, Thanks to Colds, Fractures liy VIVIAN WILSON Kmcrald Staff Writer Colds, broken bones, and skin problems rated highest in the in firmary business during the Iftfi.'t (it academic year, as University students made visits to the Student Health Service, >tf these visits, 4,0.'t8 concerned tipper respiratory problems, such as colds Fractures, sprains, lacer ations and other traumatic difficul ties brought 1,888 students into the hands of the SMS. And rashes, allergies and skin infections caus ed 1,728 visits to the campus in firmary. However, I)r. Russell M Blem ker, director, explained that last year there was a decrease of vis its to the SHS. In fact, due to some unknown reason, there were fewer reported cases of illnesses all over the country. Infectious mononucleosis caus ed only 95 persons to he hospital ized last year. But influenza and other virus diseases downed 264 students temporarily. Another 357 visits were made by students with eye problems, and 251 visits were caused by ear difficulties. Bur Cultural Center Site... (( onlinurd from poor l) ris, chairman of thr* Committee on Concept, Indicated they have been awaiting the report of her group. Bishop said all committees would he operating “within a month ” Mrs Kauris, main author of the report, said she didn’t expect to see the complex built for “two years, if that quickly.” Possible methods of financing the complex were not discussed in the report The association’s finance committee will decide on them. The report recommended that a competition be held to pick the architects for the complex It also advised that the center he con structed as a series of buildings rather than one large structure Included in the complex would be three different kinds of thea ters a 2.800 seat concert theater: a 1.500 seat repertory theater; and a "little theatre” with seating up to 500 Through a system of computing “cost per scat," the association came up with n total projected cost of $2 5 million for the com plex It estimated the cost at $500 per sent for 5,000 seals. But the report says, ", . . frank ly, we doubt if this is enough to build the kind of a physical plant we've been discussing in these pages.” North Bank Park was picked by the concept committee for three reasons: • The land is already under public ownership, so the financial outlay for the auditorium would go mostly into the building and not into land acquisition; • Eugene population is grow ing by some seven per cent a year and the committee thinks North Hank Hark will eventually he exactly in the heart of the metropolitan population; • It would 1m? easier to fit a series of buildings into the park than it would be to fit it into the confines of a city block or other such area.

The total number of patients was 791 and the average hospi tal stay per patient was two and one-half days. Various group services probab ly helped hold some of the dis eases under control. Influenza shots were given to 583 faculty and Civil Service persons, and to 2.805 students. Tuberculosis tests were given to 4,852 people, and, according to Dr Blemker, these tests caught four cases of tuber culosis which were stymied by early action. The costs of the Student Health Service are relatively low com pared to private practice. But Dr Blemker pointed out that many students fail to make use of these facilities. He added that students should carry insurance, too, to handle any problem which could arise.

Cambodia Topic For Lecture By LINDA CHENEY Emerald Staff Writer Across the world in conflict infested Southeast Asia lies the country of Cambodia, populated by Cambodians, Vietnamese, and Chinese. This kingdom will be the topic of winter term’s first Brow sing Boom lecture, to be held at 7:30 p m. today in the SU. Color slides and a brief descrip tion will be presented. .1 Francis Rummel, professor of education at the University, who directed a contact program in Cambodia during 1963, will lecture. The program, sponsored by the University and the U.S Agency for International Devel opment, involved the development of a secondary school in the capi tal, Phnom Penh. Also being outlined was a teacher training center at Siem Reap, adjacent to the monumen tal ruins of Angkor Wat Anoth er phase of this program concern ed nine Cambodians who were sent to the University to receive training in educational technology and administration. Program Ceases Then, just as plans were being completed, architects contracted, brush and land clearance com pleted, and more exchange stu dents selected, political unrest increased, due to the overthrow of the Diem government. As a result, all U.S. aid to Cambodia was terminated by that country, which was in considerable con fusion and chaos. Therefore, this program, set for six years, ceas ed. During his stay in Cambodia. Rummel found the people friendly Oreganas Distributed Today Fall 1964-65 Oreganas and binders will be distributed to day, Thursday and Friday in the Bottom -of-the-Bo wl. Students are asked to bring their receipts. Those who do not have receipts may pick up their Oreganas Friday. and helpful. Those from the top government and ministry officials down to the peasants in rice pad dies were interested in improvis ing education. The Cambodians were very anxious to further de velop and improve their educa tional system. Anti-American Feeling Rummel found that much of the publicized anti-American feeling was not against those giving aid in the country, but against the political structnre and symbol ism of the United States. An example of this occurred one day as Professor Rummel and his wife were traveling to the market place in native-pushed carts Soon, they were engulfed in a tremendous crowd, so they got out and started walking. As they made their way through the center, they learned the crowd was listening to an address in which the Cambodian prince was denouncing the U.S. Govern ment and claiming that it would destroy. The crowd shouted in agreement but Showed no resent ment towards the Americans there. From 1955-1957, Rummel work ed on educational projects in Egypt and Libya. He was forced to evacuate from the former due to the Suez crisis Rummel has been at the Uni versity since I960.
