Science building holds open house One of the Northwest's foremost science education facilities will be open to the public Sunday. March 4, when Portland State Uni versity hosts an "action" open house in its new Sci ence II Building from 2 to 5 p.m. The $7 million. 219.000 square foot comtemporary structure, completed in fall. 1971, is headquarters for PSU’s College of Science, a nine-departm ent com plex with offices, laboratories and classrooms in the adjacent Science I Building and two other structures on campus. All laboratories will be in operation and classes will be in session during the open house, according to Assist int Dean Erwin F. Lange Special displays, demonstra tions and films are also scheduled, and students may discuss educational and ca reer goals with PSU faculty members and students. Special features will in clude a glass-blowing dem onstration with free souve nirs; laboratory e x p e r i ments; with lasers, compu ters and the LEM lander; air-track e x p e r i m e n t s ; “Physics for Fun"; a demon stration of the electron mi croscope; and displays of fossils, rocks, minerals, rock saws and a student-built seismograph. The Science II Building itself is an attraction. De signed for flexibility, it has demountable walls between laboratories and m ovable partitions within the rooms, so they can be altered at will. Pipes and conduits lor utilities are built into the demountable walls, with con nections capped off at inter vals in the main corridor walls. The seven-story building is entirely ventilated by fresh air. Axial flow fan? can circulate 285,000 cubic feet of air per minute - enough to heat or cool 250 average size homes. An 869- ton air conditioning system can remove enough warm air in 24 hours to melt 869 tons of ice. Tours of these climate control facilities will be con ducted at hourly intervals during the three-hour open house. Both the Science II and Science I buildings are loca ted on the northwest corner of PSU's downtown campus. The Earth Sciences Depart ment across the park blocks in Cramer Hall will also be open to visitors.

In return, 1 get complete care for the rest of my life.” In effect, this was the agree ment that an elderly widower made with a retirement home. And when he died a few years later, the management put in a claim for his remaining asaeti. However, the man's relatives went to court with an objection. “This was gambling, pure and simple," they argued. “ No one knew how many year, he would live. N o one knew how much property he would have when he died. And gambling contracts are illegal.” W att Watchers Kids, heres your chance to help everybody—you, your parents and your friends PGE is having a Col oring Contest fo r Junior Watt Watchers to show you some of the ways all of us can save electricity When you enter the contest, you become a PGE Junior Watt Watcher 1 tsp. sugar Boiling w ater 1 1 /2 oz. light rum 1 /2 oz. dark rum 1 tsp. butter o r m a rgarine Ground cinnamon, optional. Immediate Restorations • D w td P k to s A $300.000 loan agreement was signed today at National Bank of North America pro viding financing for the first significant all-Black owned and operated company in tha garment industry. The company, to be known aa Biella. Ltd., is being headed by Marques Haynes who was a very successful entrepreneur with his own Fabulous Magician basketball team. He has since sold the team to the Harlem Globe trotters and is now starring with that group. He has also successfully operated other business enterprises. "This loan." said National Bank of North America ex ecutive vice president Lawr ence A. Meyers, "is tht largest ever made by out Business Opportunity Loan Division and is a major step forward in our effort to provide financing for minor ity group businessmen seek ing to enter the mainstream of American business life. "Marques Haynes has been successful as an athlete, sports promoter, and in oth er business endeavors. I believe that with Biella. Ltd., he will create a viable enter prise in the garment indus try." A ssociated with Mr. Haynes in this enterprise is a leading Black designer and a Black sales executive who will head up the firm's sell ing efforts. Both are exper ienced and well known in the garment industry. Biella's design and mar keting of women's apparel will be dircted at inner city department stores. The com pany will focus its attention on the hundreds of cities that have a substantial Black copulation.

Finding it no more of a gamble than an insurance policy, the court said the law had no objection so long as both parties understood what they were doing. In most cases, contracts for lifetime care have been upheld as lawful and reasonable. Court! aay they serve a useful purpose for those who want the security of a safe haven in their declining years. N o r does the contract become invalid just because it happens o work out better for one tide han the other. In one cate, a retirement home got a financial windfall because a relatively young resident, after paying a large membership fee, died within a few months. In another case, a retirement home tried to back out of its con tract after paying hospital ex penses for an ailing resident for more than four year,. But in both caaes, despite com plaints, the courts ruled that a deal was a deal and had to be carried out. Still, a contract might be in validated by deception. One re tirement home carefully avoided telling an incoming resident that he was signing over sll of his property. In this case, after the man died, his property was held to be long to hia children, not to the home. The court said h could not fairly enforce an agreement on which there was no ' meeting of the m'ttds.” A public service feature o f the Am erican B ar A u o riatio n and the Oregon .State B ar Associa tion.
