Clauser, vice presi dent of Space Technology lab oratories in Los Angeles, says man is not as close to playing Buck Rogers as he likes to think. "We are ready to put man into outer space," Clauser told 600 delegates to a two-day symposium on space explora tion Tuesday. "But we just don't have the hardware to allow him to travel to Mars, land' and explore, and then return to earth with his find ings." . Satellite launchings have led the laymen, as well as members of the technical fra ternity, to think that man' is on the edge of exploring space but it just isn't so, the scientist said. Difficult Problems Clauser said there still are a great number of difficult problems to solve before space travel is possible. He called - for a step-up in re search to answer the question. Dr. Morton Alperin, direc tor of advanced studies for the Air Force Office of Scien tific Research, told the as sembled scientists and engin eers the United States cannot afford to lose the lead in the scientific and technological race.

County Health Group Criticized Portland (CPU The gov erning council of the Multno mah County Medical Society Tuesday night accepted a re port sharply critical of the county health department, rapping is particularly for last spring's head lice scare in Portland schools. The medical society report declared that the diagnosis of an epidemic of head lice in festations "could not be con firmed by physicians or other qualified experts." The report also listed three other indictments of the pub lic health department: It has treated, children with acute illnesses, despite a lack of ade quate personnel or facilities; personnel of the department have, in some instances, dis paraged private physicians treating patients; misuse of public money by immunizing children whose parents could well afford that service from private physicians. The report concluded "Corrections of defects in ad ministration of the Multno mah County Division qf Pub lic Health are urgent" and it added, "Restoration of popu lar confidence in the division and of physicians' confi dence in its administration, requires that the division be restored to its proper func tion." CONCERT SOPRANO DIES New York (UPD Alma Clayburgh, 76, one-time wide ly known concert . soprano, died Monday after a long illness. Gambling Group Faces Jury Probe Indianapolis, Ind.

Sharon S. I want to get married. Mrs. L. S. I always want ed her to go to college. Sharon S. My mother might be the right thing for and I are having a terrific feud over me. I am 19 and a college sophomore. The big question is: Will it be mar riage or college next year? A perfectly swell guy of 25 wants to marry me and I feel I am mature enough. I want a big family and I feel the sooner I get started the better. I just dread going back to that horrible women's college where I am enrolled. The girls and the teachers are really for the birds. Supposedly I am majoring in history, which I detest and which I chose because my mother likes it. How much nicer it would be to have my own home and husband next year instead of sweating in a hot library and freezing in a cold dormitory, constantly yakking about nothing with girls I hate. . , . Mrs. L. S. Like most mothers I guess I have wanted to give Sharon the advan tages I couldn't have. It was my most cherished dream from the time she was born to have her go to college. But that isn't the only rea son I want her to go back to school next year. Her father and I really feel she isn't ma ture enough yet to make a choice. The young man she wants to marry doesn't seem to us the right type for her. The big thing that recommends him to Sharon, as far as we can see, is that he wants to marry her fast. Sharon is the kind of girl who completely lacks disci pline and I think college is a good place to develop it. I'm afraid when she finds, out what married life is really like she'll get as sick of it as she is of school. . The Council: Sharon's picture of her. college life is evidence enough of her im maturity and lack of prepard ness for marriage. Mrs. L. S. is, however, mak- Court Records MUNICIPAL COURT Darlene Louise Frohreich. no operator's license. $10. Ronald R. Flankenhorn, violation of basic rule, $10.

There should be some flexibility to allow express ion of the child's individual ity. Sharon cannot benefit from her college experience merely by sweating in libraries and freezing in dormitories for another three years. Mrs. L. S. should face the fact that what she really wanted for her daughter was not a mere piece of paper inscribed with the Bachelor of Arts degree, but knowledge, capability, poise and refinement. It is possible to get these things outside of college and it is possible to miss them completely at college. As long as the issue is col lege in its present form or marriage, Sharon will natur ally choose marriage. But Mrs. L. S. is right that in her present frame of mind Sharon is liable to get as fed up with marriage as she is with school. Sharon undoubtedly needs to develop discipline, the ability to get along with others and a knowledge of how to make the most of her life in any given situation. A job may do the trick for her. Possibly a change of col lege or of her major would help. Since she is so deter mined to have a big family, a domestic science course might be the right hting for New Industry to Hold Opening Here A new southern Oregon in dustry, Handicapped Indus tries, Inc., will hold an open ing this Saturday at 10:30 a. m. at its plant, 827 West Jack son st., Medford.

Film Executive in 'Serious Condition Cannes, France (UPD A spokesman at the Broussailles Hospital said today movie ex ecutive Jack Warner had a fairly comfortable night" but his condition was still serious.
