TEN MEDFORD (OREGON! MAIL TRIBUNE Chancellor Educational At Kiwanis Confidence that Oregon can continue a "distinguished" pro gram in higher education 'was expressed here yesterday by Dr. John R. Richards, chancellor of the Oregon state system of high er education. Richards addressed, Medford Kiwanians at the noon luncheon meeting at Rogue Valley Coun try club. The chancellor brought out his theory that the program can be continued if the explanation can be put across to the people of the choice they have. This choice is whether they should continue support of higher education in the way tney have or whether they want to keep up with the surge in population. Inflation Problem Richards spoke of the prob lem of inflation and of the com plex, requirements of higher ed ucation. He reported that higher education is the least able of public institutions to adjust to inflation and that a two or three-year lag in resources is the result. This is hitting the schools in the direction of salaries, he stated. If the next legislature feels as poor as the last, Richards re marked, state higher education institutions are in danger of di minished services. Needd of schools in equipment, techniques, materials and ex perts to "keep up with the par ade" in education were pointed out by the chancellor. Flood of Children Mentioning the flood of chil dren passing through Oregon schools, Richards emphasized that the growth of these chil dren adds to the potential of the state. He stated that these young people are a "resource." The chancellor said that it will cost to develop them but that their entry into business is go ing to make a "tremendous dif ference" in Oregon. Richards spoke of the space problem and the more intensive use of space and staffs with the increase in students. He said that the possibilities of closed circuit television are being stud ied as a means to meet the space and staff problem. Also the mat ter of "selective admission" to colleges is being investigated al though state colleges in Oregon traditionally have offered ad mission to all high school gradu ates. The feeling of citizens on this proposal is sought, Richards reported..
