Upward Bound
Program Appeals
Draft Decisions
By STEVE SMITH
Of the Emerald
The decision as to whether
University Upward Bound stu
dents are eligible for student
draft deferments now lies with
the University administration,
according to Fred Mohr, project
director of the Upward Bound
program here.
Upward Bound officials ap
pealed to the administration
last week for a ruling on the
“normal progress” report re
quired for student deferments.
“A deferment is granted on
the basis of normal progress
made towards a degree in a
school year,” said Mohr. “The
University arbitrarily establish
es the number of hours a stu
dent must complete to fulfill
the requirements.”
Presently the University sets
15 hours a terms as the stand
ard for three terms according to
Mohr.
“Upward Bound students are
regular freshmen,” Mohr re
ported, “having completed a
summer program before enter
ing the University. Most are cul
turally deprived and would not
enter college under normal con
ditions.”
According to Mohr, these stu
dents usually average less than
the normal number of hours in
their first year at the University.
The average is between 27
and 30, and when the selective

“All we are asking,” said
Mohr, “is that the University

Oregon freshmen during New

Administration officials re
ported scattered complaints
from parents and members of
the community. Most were curi
ous as to why the article was
distributed.
ASUO spokesmen said the ar
ticle was designed to promote
discussion in orientation groups.
Group leaders were not required
to distribute the essay, and
some did not.
Dick Jones, ASUO president,
was quoted as saying it was a
function of student government
to break down the “relationship
of authoritarianism to build a
community feeling and demon -
strate that the students are a
viable force in the university
community.”

Eugene Recipient
Dies at Stanford
STANFORD <A>> — Leonard
Drake, who received a new
heart Aug. 22, died Monday
night of pneumonia at Stan
ford University Hospital.
Drake, a retired postal clerk
from Eugene, Ore., had made a
normal post operative recovery
until Sept. 21, when he suffer
ed a “rejection episode,” doc
tors said.
He contracted pneumonia and
his condition became critical
Saturday.
Drake was being treated with
drugs used to suppress t h e
body’s natural tendency to re
ject foreign tissues.
One of the major problems in
organ transplantation, doctors
said, is that these powerful
drugs also suppress the body’s
ability to fight off germs, thus
making patients susceptible to
infections.
Drake is survived by his wid
ow, Wanda; two children, Jim
my and Vickie, and his par
ents. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Drake,
all of Eugene.
