Committee Formed
To Offer Support
Here on Colleges
(Continued from page 1)
head the county group. Others
will be asked to serve, and it is
expected that the organization
will meet once each month.
One of the first purposes will
be to disseminate information on
the forthcoming bond proposal
in order that the public under
stand it and the need for it.
Abrams discussed with the
State System representat Ives
how Blue Mountain Community
College fits into the picture. A
director of BMC district board,
Abrams pointed out that hope
for the future of the college lies
in the forthcoming bond issue
since this. appears to be the one
practical hope of providing tor
new buildings for the college in
Pendleton. Present buildings are
outgrown, and one portion of the
college is held in the upstairs
of the junior high school build
ing, downstairs of which is used
for the junior high students. Ab
rams said it is quite possible
that the Pendleton city school
system will need the upstairs
space and ask the college to
move. It will have no place to
go.
Die! brought out the fact that
74 students of Morrow county
were enrolled in colleges and
universities of the State System
of Higher Education in 1962-63,
as follows: Eastern Oregon Col
lege, 27; Oregon State University,
23; University of Oregon, 12;
Portland State College, 4; Ore-
Oregon Technical Institute, 4;
gon College of Education, 3;
Southern Oregon College, 1.
Additional students are en
rolled in community colleges, as
well as in private colleges and
universities in the state.
"Both state and county CFOF
committees are concerned with
interpreting the problems of
higher education to the people-
especially the need for additional
classroom buildings to accommo
date the tidal wave of students
expected on all campuses in the
immediate future," Chairman
Sprague said in announcing the
statewide committee's plans.

If you're after a car with some life to it, there's only one thing to do. Be my guest.
I'm easy to find, you know. Just look for me at your Buick dealer's, during his Sports Car Rally. While you
wait for me, you can drive one of his sport models a Wildcat, maybe, or a Skylark. Or even a Riviera. In
fact, you can drive all three. That's what the Buick Sports Car Rally is all about. (What a way to start a
New Yearl) If I don't show up, you can talk price. .That's even more pleasant than conversation with mo.
You'll see. Once you get your hands on a Buick, you won't miss me a bit. Really.
