Hall Declines To Comment on Brief Criticizing Him EUGENE, Ore., May 1 (Ft Dr. Arnold Bennett Hall, president of University of Oregon, yesterday de clined to comment In any way on the criticisms UKuinst the university1 contained in the reply brief which President William J. Kerr of Oregon state college iued Wednesday witn irio state hoard of higher education. In it3 own reply briefs which tho university will file shortly, those clo3t to the situation believe it is qulta unlikely that the university will rec ognize the complaints which Presi dent Kerr has filed with the board It was pointed out that the policy Is to "follow the federal survey" aa originally Btated by President Hall at the Salem meeting of the board. It was explained that tho univer sity had accepted the federal recom mendations which would concentrate Journalism, music, tho fine arts, and business majors on the Eugene cam pus, but protested the proposed re moval of upper class science to Cor vnllls. On commerce it asks 300 of tho 1,100 commerce students who would be transferred under strict in terpretation of the federal recommen dations. In journalism,, music, fine arts and those divisions which the survey would center here, the university will propose to offer instruction to the Corvftllls campus on terms practically identical witn tnosc avuuaoie nere. Although comment was withheld, tho view on the Eugene campus Is that tne rcderai investigators and not the university opened up the matter of reapportioning work be tween the two schools which Presi dent Kerr claims was settled by the now defunct board of higher curricula. Tho plan by which tlie university heiieves the 8i,&oo,ooo saving de manded by Governor Meier and the state board can be made in connec tion with the re-dlstributlon of func tions, will be submitted with final briefs. A board meeting within two weeks is expected to hear the oral argu ments of the university, the college, and the Normal schools on the sub ject. Decisions will be made prior to July 1 when the. budget for the next year must be complete. Fish Creek Burn Hearing Opened ROSEBURG. May 1 m The pre liminary hearing of the case of E. H.
