Eugene HP) One of the
most interested observers of
the Oregon-California basket
ball game here tonight will
be Coach Slats Gill of Oregon
State.
Gil'i Beavers, fresh from
a pair of key victories against
Southern California and
UCLA, still trail the Golden
Bears by a full game as the
PCC chase draws to a close
After the Oregon game, Cali
fornia has 'dates with UCLA,
Idaho and Oregon, all on its
home court.
If somebody doesn't trip up
the Bears, they are in as the
PCC champ. Oregon State
still must meet Southern Cal
and Washington State at
home and the Cougars and
Idaho on the road.
California, using the "stall"
only to speed up its drive
toward a second straight Pa
cific Coast Conference basket
ball crown, led the loop by a
full game today while Se
attle apparently had broken
down in its own campaign to
rate an NCAA tournament
bid.
The Bears, who can enter
the tourney automatically
taking the PCC laurels, won
their third game of a road
trip Saturday as they downed
lowly Washington State. 59-
48. They emphasized ball con
trol and froze the pumpkin
during the last four minutes
of play to come out ahead.
Seattle, an independent
which had announced it
would shoot for one of the "at
large" berths in the NCAA
conclave rather than the Na
tional Invitational tourna
ment,took a 71-68 beating in
overtime from Idaho State de
spite 32 points by Elgin Bay
lor. This loss followed a one
point squeaker over Montana
State two nights earlier.

Southern California were
stunned by conference "puri
tans" in Long Beach. Oregon

three games of its road trip
while Washington plays at
Washington State. The Dons
of USF can win the West
Coast Athletic Conference
title and breeze into then
latest NCAA tourney if they
beat erratic St. Mary's on
Tuesday.
California's victory went
into the books as a legitimate
team win with Don Mcintosh
their high man with only 10
points. The Bears were safe
ly ahead most of the night.
Baylor retained" his na
tional scoring lead by bucket
ing 32 against Idaho State but
the Bengals, who are headed
for the NCAA titanic them
selves, never trailed. The
game was pushed into over-j
time, however, when Gail
Sieman teamed up with Lloyd
Harris to score free throws
that stashed away the vic
tory.

the Bruins raised his three-
year conference record to 858
and set a PCC career scoring
mark. During the opening
same. Stanford's Paul Neu

Idaho belted Washington,

A FAMOUS Hollywood producer is considered by friends to
be the greatest hypochondriac in the land. He usually has
two bottles of pills in every pocket Not so long ago he and
Cary Grant passed a drug
store. "Don't you want to
step in?" suggested Grant
"Not today," said the pro
ducer. "I don't need a
thing."
"I know," persisted Grant,
"but maybe the druggist
does."
A magnetic young lady was

company to demonstrate and

the manager.
"Nothing to it," she laughed. ,"I' just address my sales talk

One of 10
Pregnant
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York OP) The newest
"Kinsey Report" asserts that
before American women of
the upper class have lived out
their "reproductive lives" one
out of every 10 has been preg
nant without at the same time
being married.
However, this dilemma was
resolved for most of these
women by . abortion when it
was not resolved by hasty
marriage. Here was added a
statistic which will be no less
shocking to many persons:
Among women of child-bearing
age now living one in
seven has had or will have
a premarital abortion.
The report is the first com
ing from the Institute of Sex
Research at the University of
Indiana since the death of its
State Department Plans
Study on New Businesses
Eugene Why do new
businesses come to Oregon?
At the request of the state
department of planning and
development, the University
of Oregon bureau of business
research is attempting to find
answers to the question.
Once the answers are found
the strong points of the state
as a prospective home for in
dustry and business can be
used to better the business
climate of Oregon for both
existing and prospective firms
according to Julius R. Jensen,
director of the department of
planning and development
The first part of the study
is being conducted through a
questionnaire sent to all the
firms, having 20 or more em
ployees, that have opened for
business in the state during
the past five years. Some 300
such firms,, whose manage
ment appeared to have had an
alternative in locating in an
other state, were included in
the survey.
Questions Asked
Questions asked of the
firms were reasons for decis
ion to locate here, the persons
responsible for locating the
industry here, whether other
states were considered as pos
sibilities, and the principal
market for the firm's pro
ducts. Also included was a check
list of the possible reasons
for locating in Oregon. These
were cheap electric power,
low cost of labor, favorable
state and local taxes, avail
ability of needed labor, and
favorable climate.
Opportunity to list any rea
sons which might have tend
ed to cause the business or
industry to reject Oregon as
a location was also given
Questions as to the local
facilities considered most . im

estimate validity. The Mc
Calls excerpts were prepared
by Ernest Havemann, a free
lance writer, who was en
gaged with institute approval
and whose manuscript was
checked by the institute.
While warning on the dangers
of statistical "projections,"
Havemann then projected
freely.
For instance, another pro
jection was that of all Ameri
can girls and women now liv
ing, around 8,200,000 will be
or have been pregnant with
out being married. It was re
called that the previous Kin
sey Report found that 50 out
of every 100 women question
ed had had pre-marital sexual
experience. "Naturally some
of them were bound to get
pregnant," Havemann added:
Problem Widespread
Havemann interpreted the
statistics to mean the social
problem of pregnancy with
out marriage was muah
more widespread than his one-
out-of-every-ten projection in
dicated. This was based upon
all the women studied, of all
ages, .tmt among the women
who were born between 1910
and 1919 and reached adoles
cence after World War I, the
rate was closer to 20 per cent
than 10 per cent. However,
he pomted out that the wom
en of these birth years num
bered only 158.'
The report found that the
women who were pregnant
without being married had
not "suffered any social con
sequences at all," contrary to
general expectations. There
were "relatively few excep
tions," but these women "ac
tually turned out to be more
marriageable than the women
who never had sexual rela
tions at all."
Of the women pregnant
while unmarried only 19 per
cent ended the trouble by
marrying while pregnant. Of
the remainder, only six per
cent gave birth to Illegitimate
children. Miscarriage occurred
in five per cent, and the re-i
maining 89 per cent had re-l
course to abortion.
Of these women, 86 per
cent said th?y had had their
abortions at the hands of doc
tors 'of medicine. The practice
is prohibited by the laws of
all states and, very strictly,
by medical ethics, unless there
is an over-riding medical rea
son, such as saving the pros
pective mother's life.
'Mystery'. Unsolved
Havemann said the report
had not been able to solve
the "mystery" of how many
actually were performed by
qualified physicians. The

women s own opmions were
considered worthless, since
most abortionists claim to be
"doctors" whether they are
or not However, Havemann
quoted the report that "there .
were many physicians in good
standing in their local medical
associations who performed
abortions on their wives, oth
er relatives, friends, or other
patients because of feelings of
sympathy."
The report found that of
the devoutly religious women"
studied only five per cent
were ever pregnant without
marriage half as many as for
the group of women as a
whole. For the moderately de
vout, the percentage grew
higher with age, and by the
time these women were 30,
it was the same as for , all
the women. It was granted
that this was statistically valid
only for Protestants because
of the small numbers of Ro
man Catholics and Jews in
the study. Havemann. suggest
ed, however, that this is the
"trend" among them.
'Shocking But Inevitable'
Havemann said that if all
these statistics 'are shocking'"
in the opinion of the insti
tute's researchers, they are
also inevitable." He then
quoted the report on these
social facts: Both women and
men have strong sexual
drives. These are encouraged
by society. But society insists
there must be no conception
without marriage. Yet for. so
cial and economic reasons
marriages are often postponed
for years.
"To keep one's self and or
one's suitors at a high pitch
of emotional and sexual ex
citement for five or ten years
from the beginning of dating
to marriage and meanwhile
abstain from sexual relations
is, biologically speaking, a
most unnatural as well as dif
ficult task."
