University Gets Music Grant The University has received a grant of $65,000 from the Mu siic Educators National Confer ence (MENC) to establish one of five Institutes for Music in Contemporary Education in the temporary Music Project of the nation. The contemporary music pro ject is funded by the Ford Foun dation. Purpose of the institute is to strengthen the teaching of mu sic on all levels by sharing of re sources among participating uni versities and public schools. Robert Trotter, dean of the School of Music, was named re gional director of the institute, which will consist of a regional group of universities, colleges, and public school systems. The University is administrative center for the northwestern re gion institute. Musicianship education in depth for all music students will be the goal of the Institutes for Music in Contemporary Education. Beginning next fall, each in stitute will undertake two-year pilot programs aimed at relating all musical studies—composition, education, history, performance, theory—and providing students with greater competence to deal with music as it exists and is created today. The institute programs will also evaluate the effectiveness of music teaching process.

There will be five Oregon or former Oregon athletes compet ing. Ex-Webfoot milers Jim Grelle and Dyrol Burleson will chal lenge Kansas’ freshman sensa tion Jim Ryun in the mile. Grelle hasn't beaten Ryun since last year’s final Olympic trials when Ryun edged him for the first time and won a place on the U.S. Olympic team. Grelle has run more sub-four minute miles than any other ath lete in history. At 29. he helped start the Oregon mile dynasty that has dominated the NCAA and AAU meets since the late 1950’s. But the veteran Grelle may skip the mile at New York and run the three-mile instead. The longer race will be more of a challenge, he says, and if he tin ishes first or second he would have a shot at the Russian na tional track team in one of their strongest events. The first two finishers in all events in the AAU meet qualify for the team that will meet the Russians in Los Angeles July 23 24. If Grelle doesn’t run the mile it will still be a top duel. It will be the first meeting this year between Ryun, the new ace of America's milers and t h e American record-holder at 3:55.7. and Burleson, who has been the nation's premier miler since 1959.

COBB CO-FEATURE APACHE RIFLE Audey Murphy ATTENTION Off-Campus Students Students paying their own utility bills—that is, living off campus where utilities are not included in the rent—should make their own arrangements with EWEB for starting and stopping electric service. An order to start service saves the inconvenience of having your electricity turned off because the previous tenant ordered it stopped. An order to discontinue service saves the inconveni ence of being billed for service after you leave Eugene or move to another location in town. It’s simple; do it by phone! 1. Call and apply for service—when you move in. 2. Call and stop service—when you move out. 3. Notifying your landlord that you are moving in or out is not enough. You must notify EWEB!
