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."
