Although having made no definite announce ment that he will enter the race for governor, Mr. Patterson has refused on numerous occasions to brand his rumored candidacy as a myth. Friends of the senator declared to day that he has had his eye on the governor's chair for many months, but that hi will be guided in reach ing a decision by the number of can didates that come out and their geo graphical location.

George Kelly, prominent Portland lumberman; U. E. Bean, speaker of the house of representatives during the last legislature, and Lou's Simp son of Marshfield also have been mentioned as being . receptive to gubernatorial honors. It Is not be lieved here, however, that Mr. Simp son has any intention of entering the contest. COLLEGE HANDBOOK OUT Unique and Interesting Publication Issued at Reed.
