and overpasses, the two hospitals
included in the University of
Oregon Health Sciences Center in
Portland now have been con

Liquor prices:
some rise—
but others fall
MILWAUKIE (AP) — The
Oregon Liquor Control Com
mission (OLCC) has both good
and bad news for drinkers.
Effective May 1, prices on 10
brands will drop as much as 55
cents a fifth. But prices will go
up on 23 other brands by as
much as 50 cents a fifth.
The changes were an
nounced Tuesday by Joe
Deutsch, acting OLCC pur
chasing director.
The proof on two liquors with
reduced prices, Cabin Still
Kentucky whisky and
Fleischman's dry gin, will drop
from 86 to 80. Similar proof re
ductions will be made on
Beam's Choice and Boord's
gin, but prices on those items
won't change.

solidated the former Multnomah
Hospital and a unit known previ
ously as the Medical School's
Teaching Hospital under a new
name — University Hospital.
Both units are part of the Health
Sciences Center, which includes
the medical school, nursing
school, dental school and Crip
pled Children's Division.
Last year, the teaching hospital
was known as University Hospital
South. The former Multnomah
Hospital, which was owned and
supported by Multnomah County
until 1973, was called University
Hospital North. The two units are
located on Marquam Hill in south
west Portland.
"Functionally," said Dr. Donald
Kassebaum, vice-president for
hospital affairs, "they are one
hospital, although two separate
buildings." Consolidation of the
two units began last year
The combined units now have
centralized admitting, nursing and
laundry services. There is a single
pharmacy and occupational and
respiration therapy departments.
Although the unit is licensed at a
627-bed capacity, it will continue
to operate at 500, a limit set by the
Legislature in 1973.
At present, the south building
contains extensive surgery units
and pediatrics, including the
Doernbecher Memorial Hospital
for Children. The north unit has
new major surgical services, obs
tetrics and a psychiatric crisis unit.
The center plans to reassign
other services in the future.
Banks faces Portland trial, extradition hearing
Dennis Banks, co-founder of
the American Indian Movement
(AIM) and a defendant in the AIM
trials in Portland, will speak at
12:30 this afternoon in the EMU.
Banks faces both federal
weapons charges and extradition
to South Dakota, where he is
wanted on a fugitive warrant.
Co-defendants in the Portland
trial are AIM members Russ Red
ner, Kevin Loudhawk and
KaMook Banks. They were ar
rested on charges of firearms vio
lations in Oregon last November
after police stopped them to ask
about Dennis Banks’ whereab
outs.
Banks was apprehended in
California in January and was also
charged with firearms violations.
Banks was first arrested in 1973
on riot and assault charges after
police and Indians dashed at the
Custer, South Dakota, court
house. He was convicted two
years later, but left South Dakota
W
before his sentencing, claiming
that there was a contract on his life
Oregon Gov. Robert Straub will
decide on Banks’ extradition in
in the South Dakota Penitentiary.
May. Banks’ supporters are ap
pealing to the public to help con
vince Straub to deny extradition.
Trojan closes again
RAINIER (AP) — The Trojan nuclear power plant was shut down
again Tuesday night because of leaks in its steam condenser tubing.
Officials of Portland General Electric Co., which operates the plant, said
the leaks posed no threat to safety.
But Columbia River water from the cooling tower had seeped into the
portion of the plant’s condenser system which uses chemically pure
water.
Bart Withers, assistant plant manager, said, "We have to find and
repair leaking condenser tubes and then drain and replace about a half
million gallons of pure treated water." He said the process will take at
least two days.
The plant was operating at 75 per cent of its output capacity at the
time the leaks were discovered. The plant was taken down to about 45
per cent power output late Tuesday afternoon and shut down about 7:30
that night.
