word to tho resolution.
It Is expected by those who have
been following the deliberations of
the board that by leaving the time
Indefinite the committee is leaving
tho way open for recommendations to
be made to it.
It was learned, however, that the
action of the board In agreeing on
one administrative head does not
mean that the presidents of the uni
versity,, state colleges and normal
schools are to bo eliminated at once
and all these institutions grouped
In one organization. t
Continue Deliberations
Unofficially It was said that the
period of reorganization will be of
sufffclont length to permit those
whose services will no longer bo re
quired, to make tho necessary con
tacts for other work.
It Is believed that under the one
administrative head, however, each
Institution will have a management.
The board continued lto delibera
tions In tho afternoon and was ex
pected to remain In session most of
tho day.
After a brief open meeting yester
day the committee excluded news
papermen and discussed Oregon's
higher education problems behind
closed doors for six hours.
The board is endeavoring to placo
the state's educational setup In lino
with a recent federal educational
survey. This presupposes a certain
consolidation of efforts and elim
ination of duplication.
