j 10 Thursday, October 30. 1953) MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORE. Education Board i 1 1 NTS Agrees K. Falls Should Keep OTI Salem im The State Board of Education Wednes day agreed that Oregon Tech nical Institute at Klamath Falls should be continued in that city and its program ex panded. ; The action came after the board was asked by Gov. Rob ert D. Holmes to present its views of the report on tech nical and vocational education in Oregon made recently by W. R. Flesher of Ohio State university. Flesher had recommended that OTI be moved to the Oregon State College campus at Corvallis. Centers Favored The board agreed with the recommendation of the Flesh er report that a system of ed ucation centers should be set up around the state for voca tional education and liberal arts and adult education as needed. Board members said they had adminstered OTI in the past and were willing to con tinue administering it. The In terim Committee on Educa-, tion had suggested that ad ministration be transferred to the Board of Higher Educa tion. The action of the Board was in substantial agreement with that taken by the Board of Higher Education which also was asked to comment on the Flesher report. OSC Doesn't Want OTI Oregon State College offic ials had previously said they did not think they could work in the OTT curriculum easily on the Corvallis campus. The Board expressed hope that eventually OTI could be turned into an exclusively technical institute with the educational centers taking over the vocational load. Board member May Dar ling had some reservations that in emphasizing an expan sion program for OTI, there would not be enough money left to help local areas get ed ucational centers started ' . where they were wanted, but others on the board thought both projects could go forward. Snow Flurries Precede Wi By United Press International Snow flurries were occur ring more frequently over the nation to give many points a foretaste of winter, but rain with five inches in Texas con tinued in the weather picture. The Lone Star state also had a touch of snow Wednes day. Cold air whipped chilling rain across the gulf coast from Florida to Texas, culminating in five-inch downpour in the south central part of the state. The heavy rains caused many roads to be impassable and school authorities at Poth, Tex., cancelled classes for the day. As fresh flurries of snow pelted the Rockies Wednesday searchers came across the bodies of two teen-age Minne sota youths missing for more than a week near the Wyoming-Montana border. One of the boys apparently killed himself after watching his companion freeze to death. The heaviest snow in the western portion of the nation late Wednesday was at Colo rado Springs, Colo., where one inch fell. Politicians Meet On Early Shift Milwaukee-flJPD-It's getting so a politician can"t even run into the "common man" on ! the streets of Milwaukee. i Wisconsin Gov. Vernon W. Thomson, a Republican, de cided to do some solitary cam paigning at the grass roots level Wednesday and got up at the crack of dawn. There wasn't a soul in sight when he took up a corner post near a manufacturing plant to greet early shift workers with a firm GOP handshake. .Then the first passerby emerged from the early morn ing gloom with a smile, an equally firm Democratic hand shake and the words-, '"Hello, Vern." Thomson and Sen. William Proxmire (D-Wis.), a candi date for reelection, stared at each oher for a few seconds, thinking how the grass roots .had changed over the years. "Well," Proxmire added, "you were here first, so I guess I had better go some place else." DOWNTOWN . . .
