The council was asked to
consider permitting a sign ad
vertising Seventh Day Ad-
ventist evangelist meetings in
the National Guard Armory
to be placed near the highway
in front of the Armory.
But City Attorney E. Roy
Bashaw said that since the
property was state-owned it
was not bound by local zon
ing laws. Therefore, he said,
the sign could be erected with
out council consent to a vari
ance being required.
The council authorized pay
ment for engineering costs for
the proposed Berrydale feewer
out of the $29,000 recently
allotted from the city's sani
tary sewer fund to the Berry
daye project. These costs, ac
cording to Duff, may amount
to $5 or $6 thousand.
Purchase Agreement
It also authorized a pur
chase agreement and expendi
ture from the arterial street
fund of $40,125 to acquire a
portion of property necessary
as a right of way for the ex
tension of Eighth st. across

dedicated property from
Doyle Franklin, 30 feet along

Plum st., for street purposes.
The council also permitted
Boyd A. Gibson to connect

"Severe sanitary conditions"
were the basis for quick 'ac
tion in this case. .

In the Day's News
Br FRANK JENKINS
I suppose you read in the
papers the other day the latest
proposal for the disposition of
Oregon Technical-Institute. It
was offered by W". R. Flesher,
imported director of the cur
rent Oregon' survey of voca
tional-technical education in
the state. His recommendation
to the Oregon State depart
ment of education calls for
dismemberment of OTI and
its removal to the campus of
Oregon State College at Cor-
valhs. - ':
As to what would.be done
with it after hauling it Tip to
Corvallis,. the Flesher report
is vague. Presumably, OTI
would be stirred into the OSC
soup and the resulting stew
would be fed to those seeking
education at the technician
level. - ,
iVfORE or less everybody it
prinratfnn rirnlec Anteila
Southern Oregon has taken a
hack at what to do with Ore
gon Technical Institute.
One suggestion has to do
with rebuilding the institution
at its present mile-high site.
Another proposal is to move
it down into Klamath Falls
and install it in a multi-mil
lion dollar brand new set of
modern buildings.
Both of these nroDosals call
for the spending of a lot of
money. Under both of them,
the money would be spent for
BUILDINGS. So far, nothing
much has been said about the
kind of education to be pro
vided in the buildings after
they have been erected!
T'D LIKE to offer this
thought:
Why not leave OTI where
it is, use some of the money
that everybody outside South
ern Oregon seems so anxious
to get spent to enlarge the
existing facilities so as to en
able more students to get into
this unusual school that has
been so remarkably success
ful in getting jobs for ALL
of its graduates, wid "spend
the rest of it in expanding
the faculty and adding some
much-needed technical equip
ment? - ;
After all, the youngsters
who come to OTI are chiefly
interested in GETTING THE
KIND OF . TRADE THEY
WANT. They are 'relatively
little interested in the . kind
of birildings in which the
training is provided. What
they want is. the. kind of ed
ucational equipment that will
insure them good jobs and a
bright future in this modern
technological world.' V .
. They aren't much interested
in rah-rah. And they are not
above attending school .-. in
wooden buildings if . the edu
ucation provided in the wood
en buildings is what they
want. ,
I'D LIKE to recommend to
these what-to-do-with-OTI
tinkerers' an editorial in the
current issue of the American
Machinist. It says, in part: '
"The United States, in its
eagerness to enlarge and
strengthen its system of high
er education, is overlooking
the vocational schools and
two-year technical ' colleges
that turn out the skilled work
ers and technicians who con
vert the drawing board ideas
into .reality. - -
"If American industry will
ever need well-trained shoD
nen and technicians it will
be in the expansionist 1960's.
The , country must have
enough graduate engineers
and scientists, but they in
turn must have the solid sup
port of large numbers - of
skilled workers and technici
ans who are capable of doing
many of the tasks that now
are assigned to engineers. ,
"No one would discredit the
importance of mathematicians
and scientists to our modern
technology, but; very few
things would ever get off the
drawing board, much less off
the ground, if it were not for
the skilled workers and tech
nicians." i ,
THAT sounds like good,
practical common sense.
. OTI has got where it is by
providing good sound, prac
tical education at the tech
nical level. It hasn't needed
marble buildings in the past.
It doesn't need marblev build
ings now. ,
What it does need is to be
LEFT ALONE, given money
enough to house the students
who come to it, and enough
more money to. maintain the
kind of faculty that will be
able to continue to provide
the kind of education these
practical .'- minded students
want.
