(UPI Telephoto) Summer Training Program for Junior Engineers Started atOSC Corvalli A "Junior En gineers and Scientists" sum mer training program that was started in Oregon two years before Sputniks focused attention dti America's criti cal need for scientists is now se8in ft pattern across the nation s a means of encour aging promising young people to prjtr for technical ca rt . . Th Junior Engineers and feintist Summer Institute fet launched at Oregon State college In 1956 with 129 boys &id one girl. This summer, the June 15 to 28 program at OSC has 225 boys participating and a program for 40 girls has been started t Linfield college. Similar programs are also being held in Montana, Utah, South Cirolint, Kansas, New Mexico, nd North Dakota. Adjoining dtalM It ftll cues, boys and girls ai flrflwn from adjoining s1tts o thgt some 23 states r rajrwented this year in etSSI. loy at OSC, for ex- 9mpl, are from Oregon, Washington, California, Mon tgnt, Idaho and .Nevada. Next ygr it is hoped that three or four additional states will host JESSI programs of their . own. Sponsor of the program, in cooperation with the various colleges, is Scientists of To morrow, non-profit Portland corporation formed in 1955 to promote interest in science. Stanley Shirk is director. At Oregon State college, F. A. Gilfillan, dean of science, and George Gleeson, dean of en gineering, are in charge oi planning the course of study. The study program is es sentially a two-week "college short course" that covers all fields of engineering, mathe matics, physics, chemistry, zoology, geology, bacteri ology, botany, and modern languages. OSC professors are instructors and boys are di vided into small class groups to permit individual discus sion and instruction. High Scholarship . ! To qualify for the program, students must demonstrate high scholarship in science fields and must have the rec ommendation of their high school principals. Sophomores and juniors are given priority so that they will have some time left in high school to take the basic courses mathematics, science, languages that will equip them for college years to come. Students spend six hours a day in classes, with two hours set aside for library reference work, visits to college re search laboratories, and for conferences with teachers. Evening sessions include talks by regional industrial and scientific leaders, followed by question-and-answer periods. Final Examination A final examination is giv en the last day of the con ference to let students check themselves on subject matter and to let program leaders chart development of the stu dents and evaluate their teaching. . Scores during the past two years have been "outstanding- A jRftEDFORP EUEBDAY, JULY KODEO GROUNDS- J-?0H TCAIDED HIPPOPOTAMUS! I , Pant LIVE GIRAFFES JUNGLE-BRED RHINOCEROS!

Some financial aid, do nated by industry, is available to students who would not be able to attend otherwise. Study of Plankton Planned by State Salem The state board of health this week an nounced plans for an exten sive survey of Oregon coastal areas during next week's minus tides because of a pos sible off-shore . invasion of a tiny plankton which occasion ally makes uncleaned clams dangerous for human or ani mal consumption. Thomas Blair, state health department supervisory' sani tarian, said the state fish com mission plans to submit samples of shellfish from Ore gon coastal waters for labora tory examination during the next few days, and state board of health sanitarians will fol low the minus tides down the coast for on-the-spot checks all next week. No marine mussels should be eaten "under any condi tions" during this time of the year, Blair warned. Clams can be made safe for consump tion by removing all dark por tions which contain the toxin. These dark portions should be destroyed completely and never be fed to domestic pets or fowl. The seafood sometimes de velop the strychnine-like tox in after feeding on a plankton called G. cantanella, source of the so-called "red tide". . Reputable commercial packers are aware of the danger and do not allow any of the poisonous segments of the clams to enter , the open market, Blair said. Louisiana Rids Lakes of 'Trash' New Orleans (UPI) The Louisiana Wild Life and Fish eries Commission is engaged in "selective poisoning" to rid lakes and streams of "trash" fish and make room for more game fish for anglers. The poison used is called rotenone, and when it was applied to a bayou near Mon roe, La., more than 52 tons of shad, or trash fish, were re moved from the bayou. The shad were buried in the city dump to be used as fertilizer in city park gardens next year. Limit catches of bass, bream and crappie have been report ed at the bayou since. A state biologist explained that a body of water, like a piece of land, can produce only a given amount. If a lake is capable of producing 100 pounds of fish, these fish could be all game fish or 50 per cent game and 50 per cent trash fish. Several lakes In Louisiana were found to be out of bal ance, and the poisoning pro gram began to rid the lakes of the trash. The poisoning is carefully controlled by the commission. Private ponds may be treated only after state biologists have checked the ponds. After the dead trash fish are re moved, the pond is restocked with game from state . fish hatcheries; ' Couri Records MUNICIPAL COURT Gary George Stevens, violation basic rule, $10.
