meeting preceded the program. The

Mrs. Cora Allyn, Mrs. Carolyn Kuns

much to determine the success of
the season.

0. S. C. IS READY
WITH FLAX FACTS
Much Information Gathered in Ad
vance of Promised Expansion
of Linen Industry.
Prospect of $3,500,000 in federal
funds to finance establishment of
linen Industries in Oregon has stim
ulated keen interest in available in
formation on culture of fiber flax,
according to farm crops specialists
of Oregon State college. Flax grow
ing has been carried on commer
cially in Oregon in a limited way
for years to supply the state prison
flax plant, but no great expansion
was possible without more outlets.
, The experiment station is ready
with production information for
present or prospective growers, an
nounces G. R. Hyslop, chief of the
plant Industries division of the
school of agriculture. Research in
fiber flax growing has been carried
on at Corvallis for more than 15
years, and has been conducted in
tensively since the federal depart
ment of agriculture centered its
chief investigational work in Ore
gon two years ago.
Dr. R. B. Robinson, federal flax
specialist stationed at Corvallis, and
Dr. W. L. Powers, head of the soils
department, recently made a survey
of Oregon soils suitable for fiber
flax production and now have this
data available. Some preliminary
experiments with flax fertilization
have also been carried on in coop
eration with growers, results of
which are being compiled.
Hundreds of fiber flax varieties
are under test at the Corvallis sta
tion and a number of these already
are known to be definitely superior
to the sorts now being grown in
Oregon. As soon as seed of these
can be increased they should prove
valuable to growers here.
Oregon is now the only region in
the United States, with the excep
tion of a few areas in Michigan,
where fiber flax is grown commer
cially. Present tariff rates invite
heavy importations of flax fiber
from abroad, however, which may
need to be considered in Oregon's
expansion plans, observers believe.

Stanford isn't so dumb at that It

Anyway, Oregon made her bluff

U. of O., 0. S. C. Singers
Join in Xmas Concert
Eugene. The college chorus of
Oregon State college and the poly
phonic choir of the University of
Oregon joined in a concert of
Christmas music at the music audi
torium of the university here, De
cember 3, under the direction of
Professor Paul Petri, conductor.
Approximately 200 students partici
pated in the event, among them sev
eral outstanding vocal and instru
mental soloists. Professor Petri
was assisted by Roy Bryson, asso
ciate conductor.
Although they bear different
names, and are located 40 miles
apart, both the college chorus and
the polyphonic choir are really part
of one unit under the Oregon State
System of Higher- Educatiin. All
music activities in both institutions
are now closely coordinated, and
faculty members, among them Pro
fessor Petri, Rex Underwood, di
rector of orchestras, and Howard
Halbert, instructor In violin, teach
on both campuses. This concert,
tne nrst in which both groups were
presented, is the first of a series to
be heard both in Eugene and Cor
vallis.
