Plans to Establish Oceanography At OSC Announced Corvallis Plans to estab lish a new department of oceanography at Oregon State college and to expand OSC ocean research off the Ore gon coast have been announc ed by President A. L. Strand and Dr. John R. Richards, chancellor of the state system of higher education. The new department would concentrate on graduate stu dent training and research It will be organized as the expanded research program is developed in coming months. In the past five years, OSC has received research grants totaling more than $75,000 for the first extensive studies ever made of the tides, inlets, OSC Students Earn $140,526 in Year 9 - Corvallis Oregon State college students "working their way through college" earned a record $140,526 last year at part-time and summer Jobs secured through the col lege employment and housing service. A total of 1,948 men and 488 women students' and wives registered with the employ ment service last year, the annual report shows. Steady part-time jobs were found for 390 men and 181 wonvin stu dents and a variety of odd jobs were provided for other students whose working hours were limited. The report, prepared by Mrs. Rose Duthie, housing employment secretary, praised students for "tremendous am bition and willingness . to work." A substantial number of students worked their way through the year without ben efit of family or other aid, Mrs. Duthie noted. Some worked as many as 25 to 40 hours a week and still carried a full class load. Jobs included clerical, sales, janitorial, and mechanical work in campus and city of fices and businesses; farm, forestry and yard work; baby sitting, and house work; wait ress duties; truck driving; and summer resort work.

Office of Naval Research Most of the $75,000 has come from the office of naval research, which recently an nounced plans for a vast new 10-year national program of research in waters surround ing the U.S. OSC is one of the 10 institutions proposed by ONR to conduct the studies and to assist in training vitally needed oceanograph- ers. The 10 schools are stra- tegically located along the East and West Coasts and the Gulf of Mexico. Dr. Wayne V. Burt is in charge of teaching and re search programs in oceanog raphy at the" college. The 10-year program is aim ed at providing basic informa tion about deep ocean areas, and waters, the coastal shelf and the ocean floor around the United States. The Oregon coast is the fourth longest of any state and OSC is among the most favorably located schools in the country for ocean research, Dr. Strand noted. Expanded Program "An expanded educational and research program in the field of oceanography would be of great importance to the college and the economy of the state," Dr. Strand said. In addition to the national heed - for trained oceanogra- phers, OSC graduate students in fisheries, geology, natural resources, meteorology, engin eering, zoology, and science education would benefit from advanced work in oceanogra phy." . "Research in oceanography has direct economic applica tion to fisheries, engineering, and geological survey work," Strand continued. Findings would be of value also to many state agencies, such as the fish commission and the state sanitary authority, he added. Studies also are coordinated with research in California coastal waters by Scripps In stitution of Oceanography, an other of the 10 institutions proposed as research leaders in the 10-year national program".
