McCall, Straub Split • • • (Continued from page 1) period following the rebuttals, McCall was asked about his han dling of initiative petition and why he didn’t consult with the at torney general. He replied, "The tired old horse is being worn in to the ground,” referring to the many times this matter has been brought up. in debates. “The formula was set five years ago, three years before I became Secretary of State and never to my knowledge was it questioned until last July,” McCall explain ed. Straub was also momentarily put on the spot when questioned about the policy of the present federal administration which damaged the lumber industries in Oregon. He said he was sorry that the administration had fol lowed an unsound course of ac tion in this case. However, he believed that the situation will be ameliorated soon. Commenting on this question, McCall said that he had made three concrete pro posals to President Johnson, to be heard “reasonably, not in par tisan attack.” The question of whether or not a “shield law” for journalists should be passed was asked, a proposal brought up over the controversy of the Buchanan - Frye case last summer. Although he was not sure that the law should be passed, Straub favored taking the power away from the district attorney and putting it in the hands of a trial judge. McCall, who became nationally known as a television news com mentator before running for of fice said that the majority of the proposal was just what Straub had advocated. He continued, say ing, "This is terribly important, for the protection of sources is at the heart of the matter to the flow of news.” Although Straub made no men tion of it, McCall put great em phasis on the balance of educa tion at all levels. He was afraid that too much stress on the com munity college level might “trig ger a series of inferior schools.” But he also said that six more community colleges were needed. In his closing remarks, Straub brought in the proposal to con • • • Faculty Rates . (Continued from page 1) same holds true, it adds, “for courses adjudged to be ‘mickeys.’ ” Many of"the items in the questionnaire, the report states, seem helpful to the student and the instructor while others are less useful or seem to be ambiguous or misleading. One of the questions that the committee said it felt was ambiguous is the question about the level of work that the course evoked in section 8. ROUGH KIND OF GUIDANCE “There may be a rough kind of guidance provided an instructor here, but whether a course makes one student work very hard and another work scarcely at all tells nothing about the quality of the course itself, i.e., whether it is worth taking, whether it is well taught, whether it is related to the responder’s interest. Most of the questions, the report states, in the section about the student’s reactions to the professor, “seem concise, unequivocal and calculated to let the instructor see himself as his students see him.” However, item six, “encourages independent thinking," raises some questions for the committee. The report asks how independent thinking is encouraged. ITEMS CLOSELY RELATED “If encouragement consists of lack of dogmatism or absence of arrogance in the instructor, then item six and ten, “shows respect for the questions and opinions of the student,” are closely related, if not virtually identical. On the other hand, if “encouragement” means being provocative or contentions or inspiring, then the generation of independent thinking is quite another matter. “An intensely opinionated professor might well irritate students into independent thought. Only under “Personal Comments” on the back of the form is there a chance for the student to make his meaning clear and there is no guarantee that he will do so. “Then, too, there are courses that are not intended to encourage independerff thinking such as elementary language and mathe matics.” \ DON'T MISS OUR GRAND OPENING SATURDAY OCTOBER 15th ONLY ITAUAN SPAGHETTI DINNER WITH SALAD £ AND GARLIC BREAD jW Reg. $1.15 ALSO ORDERS TO GO . . .

Relating this to mental health, he said, ‘The government should provide a creative environment for the citizens of Oregon.” Throughout the debate, Straub made it clear that he wanted a change in the “warmed-over con tinuation of the same old type of government.” He promised a "new leadership, direction, and way of thinking for Oregon.” McCall defended past guberna torial administrations, as well as his practice of “doing homework,” i making sure he has all the infor mation needed before he decides what action must be taken. “But if you want dynamism, I can give you that, too,” he said in his con clusion. Moderated by ASUO President Henry Drummonds, this was the tenth and last debate the two can didates have planned. It was cov ered live by KEZI-TV.

The grants may also be used to pay stipends to the students involved in the program.” Section 4 of the bill provides for undergraduate educational programs. Suggested programs in culde: (1) planning for the de velopment and expansion of un dergraduate programs in Inter national studies; (2) teaching, re search, curriculum development, and other related activities; (3) training of faculty members in foreign countries; (4) expansion of foreign language courses; (5) planned and supervised student work-study-travel programs, and (6) programs under which foreign teachers and scholars may visit institutions as visiting faculty. It is hoped that the bill will supplement the funds for the pro grams of the Institute of Inter national Studies and Overseas Administration on this campus, said Gange. In the past six years these pro grams have sent 109 students and 18 professors overseas from this university. On-campus programs have included interdisciplinary seminars and conferences. They have been primarily sup ported' by funds from the Car negie and Ford Foundation Funds and private donations.
