State board negotiates
for more book storage
Negotiations are underway to secure use of some buildings
at Camp Adair, 50 miles north of Eugene, for storage of little-used
books by state universities.
Jack Hunderup, Vice-Chancellor of the State System of
Higher Education, says he hopes the negotiations between the
Willamette Carpenter Training Center, the present owner and the
state system will result in a five-year contract with an additional
five-year annua! option for use of the buildings.
The state board has already approved spending of up to
$50,000 for remodeling and repairs of the buildings, Hunderup
says.
“An advantage is that the facilities would relieve the conges
tion of individual libraries by getting the books off the shelves and
into a more compact storage facility,” he says.
Although University officials have not yet made a decision on
the use of a central storage system, Hunderup says other institu
tions are eager to use the facility which would be able to house
several hundred thousand books.
A faculty committee is investigating solutions to the Univer
sity library crowding and storage problem according to University
Librarian William Axford. Axford adds that the committee should
conclude its research by the end of the year.
“Until such time as that committee has made a report and we
have all seen it and debated it, there is no University position on
the problem," Axford says.
A lack of work study help, forced summer shifting and re
shelving to fall behind schedule compounding shelving prob
lems.

IFC draws crowd of candidates;
few students seek SUAB posts
Another ASUO election campaign has begun
and candidates have filed for the seven open posi
tions on the Incidental Fee Committee and the six
unfilled Student University Affairs Board spots.
IFC positions were preferred with 21 of 25 can
didates seeking election to that body. The IFC is
responsible for disbursement of about $1.5 million in
student incidental fees, and its members serve for
one-year terms.
Because only four candidates filed fo- the SUAB
positions, only one post will be contested in the prim
ary election on Nov. 1 and 2. The race for position No.
10, representing students in the School of Architec
ture and Allied Arts, pits Tim Scarlett against Harry
Benedict.
Two other positions will be filled only through
write-in efforts, says Nancy Dubuar, ASUO elections
board member.
"I’m very surprised," said Dubuar of the number
of candidates, "especially considering we only had
nine people signed Monday.”
Dubuar wasn’t surprised at the small number of
people seeking posts on the SUAB. She cited a lack
of knowledge on the part of students concerning the
SUAB's function and purpose.
“It’s about what I expected, ’ she said. “People
don't know enough about it."
The deadline has passed for candidates state
ments to be submitted to the ASUO elections board
for inclusion in the ASUO voter’s guide.
The SUAB will only require a primary, according
to Dubuar, unless a successful write-in campaign
attracts enough votes to force a runoff. The number
of IFC candidates will be reduced from 21 to 14 after
the primary, with the seven officers to be elected in
the runoff on Nov. 8 and 9.
Candidates may launch their campaigns now,
says Dubuar, but must limit their expenditures to $50
for the primary election, and $35 for the runoff elec
tion. Financial disclosure forms are due at the ASUO
office in Suite 4 of the EMU at 5 p.m. on Oct. 31.
