Members of the organ ization are soils, forestry, and geology exports from foreign countries and from the United States according to President El mo N. ' Stevenson of Southern Oregon college. President tevenson gave a talk on the geology of the ter ritory visited on Monday, Aug 22, and stated that the visitors found it difficult to believe that within a radius of 75 miles 32 different varieties of conifers could be found. On Tuesday, the group completed their tour, with a trip to Crater lake and Educators Meet AtSOCTo Discuss Mutual Problems Ashland Southern Oregon college was host school, under the- leadership of President Elmo N. Stevenson, for a meeting of the presidents and directors of education for Oregon colleges of education, held in Ashland Aug. 22-23 for the purpose of discuss ing and working out mutual problems. Evalation of graduate, second ary education, and general stud ies programs according to Dr. Stevenson was made from a standpoint of economy of opera tion, the elimination of over lapping courses, and standardiz ation of subject content for com parative course offerings. Courses Added Where the need for additional courses was imperative, it was pointed out, these were added. Further expansion of the curric ulum will hinge upon a confer ence with department heads in professional fields for which Ore gon colleges of education offer the pre-professional courses. It was also decided in the interests of greater economy, to issue bien nial bulletins, catalogs, and oth er publications jointly whenever possible. Visiting officials were Presi dent Roy Lieuallen and Dr. Floyd Albin, director of educa tion, from Oregon College of Ed ucation; President Frank Lennett and Dr. Roy Skeene, coordina tor of instruction from Eastern Oregon College of Education; and program coordinator and participant.

An Air Force Super Sabre jet fighter has set a new world speed rec ord over a measured course. It flew between 800 and 900 miles an hour. The new mark, disclosed last night, was set by a North Am erican F100C last week over a 15-to-25 kilometer course at Palmdale, Calif. Col. Horace A. Hanes, flight test director at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., was the pilot. The record was the first in the faster than sound class. The present official fastest speed on a measured course is 755 miles per hour attained in October, 1953, in an F100 by Lt. Col. F. K. Everest. A number of-planes, includ ing the Super Sabre, have flown faster than the new rec ord, but they did so only for short spurts and not over a mea sured course. The X1A rocket plane, for example, had an en durance of only about four niin utes. The new mark was not yet an official record. Government of ficials and timers of the Nation al Aeronautic association still Lincoln Autos Have New Safety Devices Detroit (U.P.) Lincoln un veiled today a bigger and more powerful Premiere and Capri se ries of cars for 1956 featuring triple-strength door locks and other safety devices. The new cars, powered by 285 horsepower V-3 engines, are I8V2 feet long, more than seven inch es longer and about two inches lower than this year's models. Ben D. Mills, Ford Motor Company's vice president and general manager of the Lincoln division, said the new engine with a 9 to 1 compression .ratio was "the most powerful and dur able Lincoln has built in its 33 year history." Safety door locks are stand ard equipment. Lincoln en gineers who developed them dur ing a series of crash tests said they will withstand three times the normal impact in collisions before flying open. The new models will be shown in dealer showrooms across the country Sept. 8. Farmers in Russia Said Trying To 'Jump Several Generations' New York (U.R) Soviet Russia was described by a re turning American farmer today as a nation "trying to jump sev- j eral generations, agriculturally i speaking, in a few years." John M. Steddom, Granger, la., said he saw "combines and women cutting grain with their scythes in the same field." He said he thought the Soviet was 25 years behind the United States in their modern methods and 100 years behind in some manual were studying delicate instru ments used to clock the plane. GERMAN RED ILL Berlin (U.R) Walter Ul brichl, boss of the Communist Party in East Germany, is in an East Berlin hospital undergoing medical treatment, a West Berlin information agency said today. Ulbricht, deputy East German premier and first secretary of the Communist Party, has not appeared in public in East Ger many since June. Seoul (U.R) About 500 Ko rean students waved caps and shook fists before the U.S. Em bassy in Seoul in continuing demonstrations against the pres ence of Communist truce inspec tors in South Korea. aspects of farm labor. Steddom was one of eight members of the American farm delegation to return today from their 32-day visit in Russia. J. M. Kleiner, Nampa, Ida., distributor of agricultural pro ducts, the only one of the group who speaks Russian, said he was impressed with the changes since his last visits in the Soviet Union in 1932 and 1935 but skeptical of some "signs" of progress. He said that on his last visit "many people were dying of starvation. That was not true dur ing this most recent visit." "But I was amazed at the number of people employed in agriculture as compared to the United States," Kleiner said. "I wonder how much progress ac tually has been made." No Misrepresentation Seen Kleiner said he did not believe Soviet tour leaders had misrep resented things to their Ameri can guests but did "try to paint a little more rosy picture" by selecting "the better collective and state farms" for them to vis it. The other Westerner in the group, Asa V. Clark, Pullman, Wash., left immediately after ar rival by plane for his home. NOTICE!
