The rooms have been painted and the floor are now being sanded. A com plete new telephone system has been installed.

EUGENE. 0 Importance Of Mathematics Told Boys and girls of high school age should be brought to realize that a knowledge of mathematics en ables one to live more intelligently in a scientific and technical age, teachers and educators at the mathematics section of the confer ence on curriculum on the Univer sity of Oregon campus were told by Miss Elizabeth McGirf, mathe matics Instructor in the Vale schools. In keeping with the trends in other major fields of the curricu lum, mathematics training is now regarded as a sequential program extending throughout the school life of th pupil, Ml MeOirr tald. She urged that at leatt one year of mathematics be required In high achool, this courts preferably a general or compoiitt one con silting of arithmetic, 'graphic rap- resentatlon, social mathematics, algebra, goemetry and trigonom. etry. "More and more, in our com' plicated economlo and Industrial world, mathematical implication will hav to b conildered," said Dr. W. s. Milne, head of the de partment of mathematics at Ore gon State college, "we have l way recognized higher mathe matics a baing of use In phytic, architecture, and other Obvioua ap plications, but now it i applied to biology, botany, economic, and many new field. The social se curity problem, Ufa Insurance, an nuities all actuarial problems must depend upon the theory of probability for their solution." Clarence Hines, principal of the Pendleton high school, pointed out that the high school of today is more of a college preparatory school than ever before, with a total of 20 per cent at an average of those who may attend college. But for the other 80 per cent, who will leave high school to go direct ly into life situations, terminal courses will have to be set up and devised to meet individual needs in society, Mr. Hines declared.

Already, It was said, nazi supplies have been "severely cut" by invasion of the U. S. S. R. and by Soviet aerial bombard ment of the Plesti oil fields in Ru mania, and supplies captured In the nazi sweep across western Europe have been used up. Evidence that a similar pinch was being felt in Italy was seen in a fascist government order to day canceling all gasoline rations fbr private automobiles, effective Oct. 1, because Of the "growing difficulty" in getting rubber and gasoline through the British blockade. Soviet dispatches pictured Red army troops as violently assail ing the flanks of the German drive toward Moscow, offering suicidal resistance at many strong points behind the nazi Spearheads and conducting a ceaseless guerrilla warfare. A Soviet communique again spoke of heavy fighting during the night in the Bobruisk sector, on the south side of the Smolensk salient where the Germans have crashed through the center of the Stalin line. It was in the Bobruisk area that Moscow reported Soviet troops had opened a powerful counter-offensive, hurling the Germans back across the Dnepr river for more than 19 miles.
