One Side Of 'Fireside' Catches Fire There was a fire in the "Fire side Room" at the University of Oregon Friday. A student in the Old Music Building, near E. 18th Avenue and Kincaid Street, spotted flames racing through draperies near a window in the second floor room at 11:17 a.m. and turned in the alarm. Music professor Robert G. Cunningham and several stu dents in a music class in a near by room grabbed an emergency fire hose and put out the blaze before Eugene firemen arrived. The blaze damaged the win dow, wall and ceiling. Firemen estimated damage at $300. Firemen said the blaze was either of incendiary origin or caused by a careless smoker perhaps one who tried to flip a cigarette butt out the open win dow. The "Fireside Room" is so named because it has a fire place but there was no fire in it at the time.

Comment Hit By Thornton State Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton said Thursday eve ning in Springfield that Walter D. Pearson, his opponent for the Democratic nomination for gov ernor, is talking off base, using trumped-up charges, and quot ing out of context. Thornton spoke at Springfield Junior High School at a rally sponsored b y McKenzieland Democrats. Pearson, a state senator from Portland, said recently that Thornton has contended that increased school financial needs can be met from off-shore oil revenues. Thornton said Thursday eve- nine that he is perfectly aware that no oil has been discovered in Oregon, so there is no reve nue. But, he said, the law pro vides that all revenues from off shore oil are earmarked for school needs and that if oil is found it will be used for such purposes. Thornton was the only state wide candidate to appear at the rally, but three of the four Dem ocratic contenders for Congress were present Patrick Flynn, Charles 0. Porter and Robert Duncan. About 60 persons turned out, and about 20 of these were candidates.
