Oregon State Seeking
Flying Training Unit
Oregon State College Prospects
are bright for establishment of a
unit at Oregon State college of the
new federal program for training
civilian airplane pilots and mechan
ics, according to administrative of
ficials here. The Portland chamber
of commerce and other organizations
have gone on record as favoring es
tablishing such work at Corvallis.
It is understood that the new
training units are to be established
in connection with colleges already
giving training in aeronautical en
gineering. Such work is well estab
lished here, although no vocational
training is now given for pilots or
mechanics.
B. F. Ruffner, associate professor
of aeronautical engineering, and S
H. Graf, head of the department of
mechanical engineering, are nego
tiating with federal officials over
the possibility of getting federal aid
for such work.
Grade school students in a Wis
consin school recently debated the
desirability of automobiles as com
pared with horses and buggies, and
decided in favor of the latter because
they cause fewer fatalities, Secre
tary of State Earl Snell reports.
However, the children were strongly
in favor of the automobile provided
the safety factor can be sufficiently
increased
Oregon Coops Lead in
Frozen Food Industry
Four cooperative associations in
Oregon and two in Washington are
listed among 11 such organizations in
the entire United States which are
engaged in processing frozen pack
fruits and vegetables, according to
a survey made by J. A. Forehand,
secretary of the Washington Pack
ers, Inc., at Sumner, Wash.
Most of the experimental work in
frozen pack methods carried on by
public agencies has been conducted
at the federal laboratory in Seattle
and in the food products industries
laboratory at Oregon State college.
The four Oregon cooperative asso
ciations and the pounds processed
in 1937 as listed by Forehand, are
the Apple Growers' association, Hood
River, 29,000 pounds; Gresham Berry
Growers', Inc., 5,400,000 pounds;
Springbrook Packing company co
operative, 240,800 pounds, and Stay
ton Canning Company cooperative,
500,000 pounds. These four together
accounted for 6,430,800 of the 28
million pounds processed in 1937.
"Frozen fruits and vegetables as
an industry is still decidedly in its
youth," said Mr. Forehand, "but I
believe it will play an increasingly
important role in the preservation
of foods, and that in growing it will
introduce many innovations in the
transportation, storing and mer
chandising of foods."
Increasing acceptance of frozen
food products has been noted on the
part of hospitals, railroads, restau
rants and steamship lines, in addition
to individual home consumption.
