Orff for two pianos, four percussion, chorus and soloists.

Music.”
The concert is free and the public is invited.
Two win music awards
The University music school has awarded $1,000 scholarships to
composition students Ray Freedman and Jack Gabel.
The scholarship awards were made possible after distinguished
American composer Raymond Hubbell left an endowment to the Ameri
can Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) for assist
ing promising young composers through their college education.
ASCAP selected a number of universities throughout the United
States which are known for their work in the field of music composition,
including this University.
Freedman received his Bachelor of Music degree in 1970 from the
University of Connecticut and a master s degree from the University of
Oregon in 1972. Since then Freedman has twice been the recipient of
the Ruth Lorraine Close scholarship award at the University, where he
is a doctoral student.
Gabel studied music theory for two years at Portland Community
College before coming to the University of Oregon. He is a junior. He
has been very interested in composing since returning from Europe and
has spent time working on jazz compositions for a jazz quintet.
A career in law
without law school.
What can you do with only a bachelor’s degree?
Now there is a way to bridge the gap between an
undergraduate education and a challenging, responsible
career. The Lawyer’s Assistant is able to do work tradi
tionally done by lawyers.
Three months of intensive training can give you the
skills—the courses are taught by lawyers. You choose
one of the seven courses offered—choose the city in
which you want to work.
Since 1970, The Institute for Paralegal Training has
placed more than 2,000 graduates in law firms, banks,
and corporations in over 80 cities.
If you are a senior of high academic standing and are
interested in a career as a Lawyer’s Assistant, we'd like
to meet you.
Contact your placement office for an interview with our
representative.
We will visit your campus on:

Math applied
in biology study
The University has been
awarded an $86,594 grant from
the U.S. Public Health Service
(PHS) as continued support for a
program geared to teaching
graduate students how to study
living organisms with mathemati
cal equations.
According to Russell Femald,
University biology professor and
director of the training program,
research being conducted by 12
participating doctoral students
ranges from examining learning
processes in locust to studying the
vision of fish.
The students learn how to use
mathematical approaches to
analyze biological processes in a
wide range of living organisms, in
cluding humans.
