NEW HABIT R. S. Shrestha, left, and N. B. Basnyat,
two of the eight educators from Nepal who are spending
the summer at the University of Oregon, exchange ideas
over a cup of coffee at the faculty club on the campus.
Since coming to the United States, they and their col
leagues have acquired the coffee break routine, switch
ing from their native tea.

Nepalese Educators
A rrive He re for Study
"Never saw anything like the
way they can find a Chinese res
taurant," said Hugh Wood, in de
scribing his journey across the
United States with eight Nepalese
educators.
"We'd arrive in town and be
fore I even knew where the hotel
was, they had located a Chinese
eating place."
These eight Nepalese were sent
to Oregon under the university's
contract with the Foreign Opera
tions Administration. Their as
signment to this university is to
study school administration. Aft
er a year on this campus they will
return to their native Nepal and
take over the operation of the
teacher training program set up
under Oregon's guidance.
TWO YEARS IN NEPAL
They have come to the Univer
sity of Oregon with Wood, a pro
fessor of education here and the
man who has spent the past two
years in Nepal planning and or
ganizing the teacher training pro
gram. He will remain here during
the year with the eight men while
they learn of America's education
of its teachers.
The eight are T. N. Upraity,
deputy secretary of education for
Nepal; K. R. Aryal, N. B. Basny
at, S. R. Dhoj. M. L. Joshi, D. M.
. Shrestha, R. S. Shrestha, and R.
P Tandukar.
The group arrived in New York
on May 1. Since that time they
have visited colleges and univer
sities, have seen the country's
industries and scenic spots. They
were amazed at Pittsburgh's huge
steel plants. They saw the Ford
plant in Detroit, the stockyards
and packing plants of Chicago,
the mines in Colorado. They
viewed Niagara Falls (from the
American side since they had only
single-entry permits to this coun
try), were awed by Grand Can
yon, impressed by. Boulder Dam,
and amused by Hollywood.
They have seen so much in the
past six weeks that they feel it
will take them quite a spell of
time to think it all through and
sort out their ideas and impres
sions But having arrived on the cam
pus, they have settled down to
an opinion or two.
Opinion about the most inter
esting sight they saw across the
United States it was Boulder
Dam. Because in this big power
project they had a glimpse of the
future of their own country.
f Right now Nepal is planning
still in the blue print stage the
giant Kosi Dam. It will be the
highest dam in the world. The
water power potential in Nepal,
these men say, is tremendous.
Broken Truck Axle
Results in Injury
A broken axle on a sawdust
truck resulted in an accident
Monday morning that damaged
two other vehicles and slightly in
jured one of the drivers.
Donald Ray Buckner. 30, of 150
Edgewood Rd., driver of the
truck, said the brakes failed when
the rear axle snapped near the
intersection of 11th Ave. and Polk
St. The truck sideswiped a car
and a pickup truck when Buckner
swerved to avoid a direct co!
lision.
Slightly injured in the accident
was the car's driver, Mary Irene
Eidson, 41, of Rt. 5, Eugene. She
was treated by a physician for
shoulder bruises. The pickup was
driven by Robert F. Carpenter,
'33. of Rt. 2, Eugene.
No citations were issued after
.the accidanL which occurred
about 11:15 a.m.

When it is developed they expect
to witness the industrialization
of their country the develop
ment of their cotton industries,
and the realization of more com
forts for their homes.
0-. inion about the people of
the United States they work
harder and enjoy life more than
the people of Nepal.
Opinion about Hollywood
sorry they didn't see any stars
on the streets, although anyone
they saw on the streets could
have passed for a star.
Opinion about the Oregon
country much like their own in
terrain and climate.
LONG RANGE VISION
These Nepalese educators have
the vision of a university in their
own country. But theirs is a long
range vision. They point out that
such a university as has been
developed in the United States is
still far in the future. Under
their .system the start of this will
be in the establishment of what
Upraity terms an "examining
center." This center will start!
the unification of colleges and
schools. Tnen an affiliated insti
tution can be developed. The
final' step is the federated uni
versity.
The teacher training college
they have started they hope to
make a pattern for other col
leges and schools. Eventually this
will be a part of the federated
university which will be located
on a suitable campus.
Teachers for all levels of edu
cation are being trained in their
new program. The emphasis, how
ever, is presently on training of
primary teachers, for in the pn
mary schools the demand for
teachers 'is greatest.

Would Get loney:
Lane County Commissioned! in
dicated Tuesday the county will
make application shortly for'fed
eral funds .to help finance new
health . department facilities
when the new courthouse is con
structed. George M. Sniffer, director of
hospital planning and construc
tion for the Oregon State Board
of Health, informed couny offi
cials Monday the county is eligi
ble for Hill-Burton funds to pay
upward of .one-third the cost of
health department equipment
and facilities.
Shifter explained that only the
county health department section
of the proposed courthouse would
be eligible for federal assistance,
not other county departments.
Dr. A. Triolo. countv health'
officer who is working on a part
time status after a long illness,
said the county must make ap
plication for the federal funds
before July 1 to qualify for
financial aid in the next 12
months.
Triolo estimated that the
health department would require
at least 5,000 square feet of space
in the new building. He said the
department's construction cost
would be an estimated $125,000.
Shiffcr stated the exact amount
of funds Lane County might re
ceive can't be figured until more
detailed information is available.
He estimated, however, the coun
ty could receive as much as $40,
000 or more.
Lane County Commisisoner
Kenneth Nielsen, repreesnting
the Board of County Commission
ers, requested Triolo to take steps
to submit an application for fed
eral fund to the state board of
health.

Zoning Plan
For Glenwood
About 40 persons turned out
Monday night for a public hear
ing involving land use zoning of
the Glenwood district east of
Eugene.
Majority of those who attended
apparently were In favor of a
zoning plan proposed by Howard
Buford, city-county planning con
sultant, and members of a special
Glenwood citizens zoning commit
tee. The plan calls for zoning to re
strict use of land to, light in
dustrial purposes, limited indus
trial, suburban residential devel
opment and agricultural uses.
Some persons objected to in
dustrial zoning adjacent to their
homes. Others, however, ap
peared in agreement with the
tentative plans.
The area is now unzoncd and
any type of industry, business or
home may be built in the Glen
wood district.
Buford explained that "there
is no protection now" for those
in the district. Therefore, it is
to the advantage of residents that
definite plan be agreed upon
he said.
It will be up to the County
Planning Commission now to take
action to zone the area. Objec
tions or proposed changes may
still be made to the commission
