MENDED WHISKEY
said the frog might be revived
when the ice was melted.
'There seems to be no known
limits to the powers of a frog or
other reptiles to revive after
long periods of domancy," he
said.
Dr. Albasio, an amateur siu
dent of glaciers, said he found
the frog in the Dana glacier at
Yosemite park. He estimated
the ice to be at least 1200 years
old. He was keeping it in a
deep freeze cabinet and said
he would try to revive the frog
some time next week.
The contest, based on Mark
Twain's story of an early-day
contest, will be held May 13,
14 and 15.
Citizens Ask
For New Bridge
Residents of North Church
street near Mill creek want a
new bridge over the creek, but
they probably will have to wait
until late next year before they
get it.
A well-signed petition from
the residents reached the city
council Monday night, declar
ing the old bridge is past its
usefulness and no longer worth
repairing. They ask for a mod
ern one.
There is little left of the old
one to repair, they said, and its
condition at best is such that ve
hicles crossing it make a lot of
noise, which is a big nuisance
at night.
City Manager J. L. Franzen
told the council that bids had
been called for no less than
three times for construction of
a new one, but no bids had
come. However, he explained
that the new interceptor sewer
will run under the bridge, and
that the economical thing to do
would be to wait until the sewer
construction at that point comes
along. City Engineer J. H. Davis
said this would be toward the
end of next year.
The manager was Instructed

dents on its campus, including
27 from China, seven from Bur
ma, three from Persia and oth
ers from Egypt, Iceland, Nor
way, Pakistan, Sumatra, South
Africa and England.
Dr. Strand spoke of the bene
fits to be derived from the ex
change student program as
sponsored by the Fullbright bill.
In this connection, the speaker
said the exchange student proj
ect should be of material assist
ance for the Marshall plan.
There is a danger that foreign
students may not secure in this
country that which will be of
the greatest possible advantage
to them when they return home.
Dr. Strand said. "They should
attend council meetings, school
board meetings and similar con
ference dealing with American
life."
Dr. Strand said there was no
problem of racial discrimination
at Oregon State.
