cultural iustruction, but is now used
for the chemistry and) pharmacy
work.
The imperative need of
more laboratory space and the pres
ent unfitness of the rooms available
make remodeling which will cost
$11,000 absolutely necessary at
once. The college is in great need
of a. library building and the best
care of the health of the students
would demand a gymnasium, but
in view of appropriations of more
urgent necessity, the regents have
decided not to ask for them this
year. They wish to relieve the
pressure of the slate treasury, and
are doing all they can, though the
rapid growth ol all departments
warrant a much iucreased appro
priation for the work of the next
two years.
“ Amounts estimated necessary
for the support of the work ol the
various departments are greatly iu
excess of the total appropriation re-
der the weight of the books. Since
1908 the number of books in the li
brary has increased three times,
and the student body has doubled,
but the shelf room is but one-third
larger, and the reading room, which
seats but 105 students, has not in
creased at all.
The matter of provision for dem
onstration and extension work
throughout the state was referred
to a committee to be worked out in
couference with various state organ
izations interested.
The regents present at the meet
ing were as follows. President J. K.
Weatherford, Albany; Secretary E.
E. Wilson, Corvallis; B. F. Irvine,
Portland; Ben W. Olcott, Salem;
L R. Alderman, Salem; C. E Spnce.

At a recent meeting of the Co

appointed to work in conjunction
with J. L- Kronenberg, Elbert Dyer
and G T . Treadgold— a committee
of the Bandon Commercial club— in

the organization of a port commis
sion for the Coquille river.
The joint committee met in the
private room of the Commercial
club at Bandon last Thursday even

the proposition.
An organization was perfected by
electing J. L. Kroenenberg, chair
man; E. E. Johnson, vice chairman
and Mr. Mills, secretary and treas
urer.

and a map of the river from the ter

Profiting by the experience of
other ports recently organized it is
believed the proposed port could be
established without legal entangle

Mayor Morrison is enthusiastic

it has not iu the least lessened his
