Sheepmen to Meet Today In Corvallis The annual meeting of the Ore gon Purebred Sheep Breeders will be held in Corvallis today, be ginning at 1 p. m. in the Beriton hotel. The highlight of the meeting will be a talk by Julius Nordby, director of the Sheep Breeding experiment station of the United States department of agriculture at Dubois, Ida. Nordby will be on the afternoon program discussing important phases of the sheep breeding program as it affects Oregon and Washington sheep pro duction. E. F. Hubbard, president of the sheep breeders, calls attention to the facts that Oregon sheep popu lation is down 63 per cent and that the sheep numbers of the state have moved west with Douglas county being the top sheep coun ty in the state. Another feature of the meeting will be a report of the pioneer sheep breeders memorial commit tee, concerning the erection of a memorial for pioneer sheep breeders of Oregon at the state fairgrounds. This committee is composed of Eldon Riddell of Monmouth, Claude Steusloff of Sa lem and C. M. Hubbard of Junc tion City. The annual banquet will be at 6:30 with Norby the speaker. Inspection of Meat Lax, Say Veterinarians A need for strengthening Ore gon laws on meat inspection was indicated Friday by veterinarians from several sections of the state who were in Salem attending a quarterly meeting of the Oregon State Veterinary Medical associa tion. Much of the discussion centered on recent reports of commercial slaughtering of tender calves those generally under four weeks old and considered unfit for hu man consumption. Inspectors at slaughterhouses are handicapped in this respect, said Portland Meat Inspector E. E. Chase, be cause determination of the exact age is difficult. Dr. C. C. Wilkie, chief of the federal bureau of animal industry meat inspection recommended the state require both antemortem and post mortem inspection of animals slaughtered. A draft of new inspection rules of the state agriculture department was presented by Drs. Charles F. Haynes and James K. Taylor of the department. Haynes was ap pointed to a committee of the as sociation which will give further study to meat inspection regula tions.

Tb Statesman Several local civic leaders will meet with the board of the Salem school district Monday night to go over the district't. expansion plans which already have been given favorable study by the board itself and a group of outstanding Oregon educators. At the meeting called for 8 p m. In the public school office build ing, citizens will be informed of the $3,273,00?) school district con struction program as drafted by the board. Educators from outside the dis trict concur with the board in re garding an immediate building program "an absolute must," says Superintendent Frank B. Bennett. On the basis of birth rate alone, he said they felt that facilities must be provided for 4,000 ele mentary school pupiU by 1953-54 and for 2.000 each in junior and senior high schools by 1955-56. Experts Confer Dr. Paul Jacobson, dean of the University of Oregon school of tHiir-at inn- T")r far! Hnffakr nrn. ffessor of school administration at U of O, and Lester Wilcox, as sistant state superintendent of public instruction, have looked over the Salem system, the pro posals for expansion ?nd have conferred with various directors. With a greatly increased birth rate reflected in the recent school census, elementary enrollments will grow steadily and rapidly for at least five years, but the secondary level will not be dras tically affected for several years, I Bennett reported. ! Suggest Cafeterias The educators agreed, said Ben- nett, that frame buildings like (Grant and Liberty should not be expanded but should be employ -; ed until growth demands their replacement with larger struc tures; that Washington school is ! not a proper site for a replace ment; that most of the other buildings are fit bases for addi tions. They also recommended ; that new construction should con form to modern educational de sign; that additions should con form to the parent structure-; that remodeling should provide for covered play area and cafe teria, both able to double for such other use as auditorium. ' The senior high school can hold j its own for several years, it is anticipated, by addition of voca- tional shops and mu.ic rooms. Two new gymnasiums and a heat ing plant were constructed dur- ing the past year,, as well as a shop and garage for all district buses. Junior High Expansion 1 The pinch will not be immed iate at the junior high level, but enrollment next fall is expect d , to be about 1,750, more than 50 above the present figure- A new ' gymnasium, a cafeteria and some i large classrooms are proposed at I Parrish, and a new building is i planned for West Salem on a i site already purchased. For grade schools, the immed- iate need is enlargement of some existing schools (both city and suburban) by from one to six classrooms, plus play area, cafe teria and other facilities. Probably next on the list are new build ings at Four Corners (now served , by Rickey) and in the Capitola All Sales Final j : New and Used Room Heaters j Toasters. Hot Irons.

Another may be erected later somewhere east of Engle wood school. Replacement ' is planned for Grant and Liberty structures, if and when they be come crowded. It is not antici pated that Washington, the city's oldest school, will be replaced, because its location is not central to School population. A survey by Bennett showed that, at the rate of 30 pupils per room, the district this year needs 113 classrooms. However, the to tal available is 101. plus seven mora temporary ones in quonset huts, libraries and storage rooms. Mill Offers to Give Logs for Lumker Bridge An agreement which will speed reconstruction of Lumker's bridge acros the Little North Fork of the Santiam river, which collapsed recently, was announced Friday by Ted Kuenzi, Marion count yA bridge foreman. Kuenzl and a crew will begin the project next week with hopes of completion by early February. Loggers and the Willamette Builders lumber mill at Aums ville offered to provide logs and lumber necessary for the bridge's false work, free of charge. This is being done to enable resump tion of logging traffic from the Elk horn country to the mill and keep mill production running. Timbers for the bridge had been dTTf WIND your watch once a 4a.
