The library expansion pro ject will receive $780,000 to start the planning process, according to figures released by Hill Noland, the associate vice chancellor for facilities at the Oregon State System of Higher Education.

Master sumi-e artist Tatsuo Saito. who recently demonstrated and exhibited his art in the Ashmotean Museum at Oxford, presented "The Sound of the Creek at Shinshu" to museum officials and Univer sity President Paul Olum at a reception attended by more than thirty people. Saito expressed "much pleasure and happiness" after receiving a statement of acknowledgement for the gift from President Olum ami a catalog of press clippings from Michael Whitcnack, supervisor of Visual Arts Resources The catalog contains articles written in reaction to a traveling exhibition of Saito’s work, which opened at the University of Oregon Museum of Art in IHttO and subsequently toured :tl sites in six states. The pain ting is from this exhibition. "I am (apanese tradi tionalist." Saito said There are "not so many (traditionalists) because after the war. Western culture came to my country." he said.

The gilt, one of Saito‘s tradi tional fapaneese paintings, is titled “The Sound of the creek at Shinshu. ” has** in Zen" yield the complex simplicity of the sumi-e pain ting. VVhitenack said. “What you're painting is energy—not objectivity,” he said. The emphasis is placed on the space between things. A painting is not completed in detail so you can put yourself into the work, he said. Although sumi-e artists usually paint landscapes, animals or flowers, "everything on earth is good for painting." Saito explained in “Sumi-E Spirit in the Hand of Tatsuo Saito." a catalog of Salto's 1980 traveling exhibition. “The painting may take five minuets,’ Whitenack said. "He may throw out a hundred pain tings to get just one right." The paper is quite thin, so if the brush remains upon it too long the ink spreads and the image may not match the feeling tbe artist is attempting to express. Whitenack explained. Tatsuo Saito. who recently turned 74. has become a cultural ambassador for |apan through his exhibitions. "Each country has a special culture so we should exchange our culture." he said at the reception. "It's very important for making world more peaceful — more understanding.” SOAK YOUR BODY (Not Your Pocketbook) $1 OFF PER GROUP one coupon per group Good through 9.M&97 1883 Gorden Ave (off Fionhlin Divd.) 345-V048 J Classifieds Policy CLASSIFIED ADS CAN BE PLACED AT ODE Otficr 300 EMU UO Books Iocs Stamp Countar EMU Main datk PAYMENT All ad» must ba paid lor m advama uniat* a tnllmq m#nl has baan For btllmg tn rwgtmtnl) plaasa call US414] or Stop by lb* E mar aid Ctassitrad ofbca 300CMU RATES t 7 cant* par «ord for tha brat day and 14 cants par word for con sacutfva days tn« ad is run without chanpa Personals PROBLEMS?
