THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1920 WORK OH 5 STATE HIGHWAYS OUTLINED Gap on Portland-Salem Road: Ordered Paved. CROOK PROBLEM SOLVED, Highway Commission at Sleeting 2Iape Out Programme of Build ing for Coming Season. Work on five highways was mapped at at a meeting: of the state high way commission yesterday. The traffic lanes considered were the Pa cific, Columbia. McKenzie, The Dalles California ana the Baker-Cornucopia highways. The commission ordered paved the last unsurfaced gap on the Pacific highway between Portland and Saiem, this being the 4.1-mile section be tween Canby and Aurora. Bids on this Job will be called for at the March meeting, and by state fair time the highway between the metropolis and the capital should be completely nardsu rraced. Orders were issued to prepare for graveling the Columbia river high way between Arlington and Blalock, eight miles, and between Echo and Pendleton. Also the commission di rected that the sand dunes in Sher man. Morrow and Gilliam counties. which front the highway, ehall be oiled. : Gap Links East and West. Having settled on the lower river route for the Columbia highway sec tion between Seufert and the Des chutes river, the commission ordered that the necessary rights of way be secured and specifications be pre pared for advertising as quickly as J possible. This is the last link of the I highway between the Pacific ocean and the summit of the Blue moun tains that is not completed or under contract. On the Baker-Cornucopia highway a contract for graveling the four-mile Canyon section was awarded to F. C. Ox man, whose bid, received Thursday, had been taken under advisement. The Canyon section is the worst spot on that particular highway. According to the plans of the com mission. The Dalles-California high way will be built from the southern Wasco county line through Jefferson county to the Deschutes line this year, and between the Jefferson line and Bend the road will he graveled. The commission is about ready to let a contract from Madras to the Des chutes line and yesterday ordered a' I survey for The Dalles-California highway from Madras north to the Wasco line. This survey will lead to the letting of a contract within a few months, and by the end of the year the 50 miles of this highway should be finished across Jefferson county. MeKensJe Surrey Ordered. Survey was ordered on the McRen- sie highway between Redmond and Sisters. The government is already working west of Sisters into the Wil lamette valley on this highway. The survey was promised to Sisters last year, but field crews were not avail able. Yesterday the commission or dered the survey made as early as possible. This survey is to the west of Redmond, and the commission helped Redmond to the east, as well, by making a new arrangement with Crook county. Having suspended the Oskar Huber contract between Redmond and Prine- ville Thursday for financial reasons I affecting Crook county, a new pro gramme was worked out yesterday. The government had refused to co operate on the Crooked river road from Prineville to the Shorty Davis I ranch and on . to Paulina, and the county court considered this road more vital to Crook county than the road to Redmond, which is passable except for a few miles. The state highway commission de vised a plan which makes the Red mond Prineville route a postroad I project, on which the federal aid will I he SO per cent and the state and Crook county will each put up 25 per cent of I the cost. This road, which is a section of the McKenzie highway, will be sur faced, Then, for the Prineville-Paul-Jna road on Crooked river, the county and state win bear the expense. Difficult Problem Solved. This solves a difficult problem for Crook county and the court plans to build a market road from the Crooked river road to a connection with the Burns-Bend section of the central Oregon highway. The Huber con tract for the Redmond-Prineville road was restored. As a market road, the commission ordered a survey made for Columbia county from St. Helens to Pittsburg. Receiving an offer from Multnomah county of 185.000 for the Mount Hood loop, if the commission would match this sum, the commission dictated a letter to Multnomah county stating that the state and government will meet Multnomah's $86,000 with $170, 000 joint. At the same time State Highway Engineer Nunn was ordered to proceed at once to select the cheap est route he can find between Zigzag and the Multnomah county line. COLLEGE ELECTS TWO DR. XL V.

Expenses for Men $50 Monthly; for Women $40 to $45, as Against $30 Four Years Ago. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Feb. 6. (Special.) Living expenses for students at the University of Ore' gon have increased 25 to 40 per cent in the last four years, according to information collected on the campus this week. The men are spending more than the women, available fig' ures show. Fifty dollars a month to cover all expenses is the average for the men, taken from the returns of fraternity houses and from students who live outside. For the women the figure runs from $40 to $45, having gone up in the last four years from approximately $30 a month. Available figures indicate that lit tle or nothing can be saved by living outside the men's and women's fra ternity houses and halls of residence. In the case of the men, apparently. the outside cost is higher, with room and board running at a $32 average in the fraternity houses and $30 to $40 outside. The result is a smaller number of men and women living out side than in former years. In 1916 16 a total of 50 men were "baching," while this year hardly more than a handful are living In that way. The cost o board and room in the Iwomen a fraternity houses averages lower than the men's, ranging from $27.50 to $33 a month. Three years ago this cost was $22.50 to $25. The cost in Hendricks hall. In which live 160 girls, is $7 a week as against $5 a week three years ago in the old Mary Spiller hall. Almost none of the women are "baching" this year. The lowest reC' ord of living cost on the part of the women was in the case of two girls who lived in a tent, for which they paid no rent and who met their joint expenses for from $18 to $zu a montn three years ago. Some of the men made even lower records in former years. News of Ida Lawyer Wanted, SALEM, Or., Feb. 6. (Special.) Sam A. Kozer, assistant secretary of state, today received a letter from Charles W.
