Women Administrators
Needed in Schools
There should be more wo
men administrators in Oregon
schools. State School Supt.
Verne A. Duncan believes.
"Men heavily outnumber
women as school administra
tors." Duncan said. "In fact,
more than 90 percent of our
administrators are men.
"But 58 percent of our
classroom teachers are wo
men." he added 'There is a
lot of administrative talent yet
to be tapped. School districts
should identify and encourage
women teachers to become
administrators."
Duncan said women have
made some gains in recent
years.
The number of women
principals has increased 48
percent in the last five years.
Ninety-two women were prin
cipals during 1979-80, 30 more
than the 62 who had those jobs
during 1974-75.
Eighty-four of the 92 were
principals of elementary
schools. Three headed junior
high schools and five were
high school principals.
Meanwhile, the number of
male principals dropped from
895 to 862.
During that same five-year
fA'tUxl. the number of women
vice principals increased 60
percent, going from 20 to 55.
During the 1979-80 school
year. Oregon had seven wo
men superintendents
Andy Anderson made alco
hol from straw 10 years
ago-actually "straw wine,"
he said-and his colleagues
chuckled.
Today, nobody is laughing.
The 65-year-old microbiol
ogy professor, who is retiring
this summer after 27 years on,
the Oregon State University
faculty, is becoming a celeb
rity of sorts.
He has been making alcohol
from plant materials for
years-making him a bonafide
expert in a period when
shrinking oil supplies and
skyrocketing prices have sent
the nation on an alcohol fuel
binge.
At the stage when most
people's professional careers
are quieting down, his tele
phone is ringing off the hook.
"I've got so many people
calling me from all over the
West Coast, and other places,
too, I can't keep up." he said.
Week after week, the Ore
gon Agricultural Experiment
Station researcher is bom
barded with requests from
people who want to fly him in
to speak at their "gasohol"
conference, or visit him so he
can look over their plans for
an alcohol fuel production
facility. Once-dusty scientific
papers stacked in his campus
office are in demand.
"I don't mind though," said
Anderson, a soft-spoken man
who finds his popularity
slightly amusing. "But it's a
little disconcerting-how to
handle it. I've been working on
this (making alcohol from
plants) for 10 years in the
quiet of the university com
munity." Anderson realizes he is
caught in the same whirlwind
as some of his associates ot
other universities.
"Industrial microbiology is
hot property now." he said.
"Suddenly it is much more
lucrative than teaching. They
may have trouble hiring
teachers in the future."
As for himself. Anderson is
retiring from university life
only.
He is a consultant to "three
or four" budding alcohol
production plants in Oregon
and to a commercial firm
evaluating the potential of
growing mushrooms in straw,
an agricultural product he has
given special research atten
tion to try and help solve the
summer grass seed field
burning controversy that
placues the Willamette Val
ley. Also, he said people "from
all over the country" are
calling and visiting him to
inquire about a process he
developed to obtain from
straw an enzyme needed to
make a popular natural
sweetener called fructose.
Anderson's vision of the
future in western Oregon
includes a single production
facility geared to obtain
alcohol fuel and the fructose
enzyme from plant materials
such as straw and fruit and
vegetable wastes, and to
collect the high-protein left
overs for sale as a food
supplement for animals and
possibly human.
