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.

Contract for
Lifetime Care
“ You get everything I own. 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.”

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.

But the court u w nothing ille­
gal about the contract. 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.”
