Wellesley Offers
Unique Program
Of Financial Aid
Wellesley, Mass.-IUPll-Well-
sesley college has announced
a unique program of financial
aid which will allow a student
to convert an interest-free
loan into an outright gift if
she decides to teach.
Miss Margaret Clapp, presi
dent of the Women's college,
said that the new aid plan
would be open to American
students entering Wellesley in
the fall of 1061.
Principal features of the
new plan are:
All entering students who
need and are awarded aid by
the college will receive the
combination loan-gift for all
four years and will be ex
pected to earn something to
ward their expenses.
Conversion Automatic
After graduation, conver
sion of the loan to a gift will
be automatic for each young
woman who teaches in a pub-

arship committee had in mind
three related considerations,"
she said.
Miss Clapp listed the consid
erations as: "The likelihood of
mounting costs of higher edu
cation in the next decade; the
fact that the larger size of
the average family will make
it harder for many parents
to pay as large a proportion
of the cost of the education
of each child as they have
in the past, and the increasing
numbers of students capable
of benefiting from a college
education."

per
version to gift for each full
year of teaching completed
during the first four years.
The loan will be con
verted into a gift at the rate
of 25 per cent per year for
each completed year of study
in a graduate school of arts
and sciences or education,
provided the study is followed
by teaching within four or
five years of graduation.
Miss Clapp said the pro
gram was similar to the Na
tional Defense Education Act
scholarship program, but was
more advantageous to the stu
dent because it made possible
00 per cent conversion of
the loan into a gift. The fed
eral program provides for
about 50 per cent conversion.
She also emphasized that
the Wellesley program re
quired no "disclaimer affi
davits." The college withdrew
from the federal program last
year in the wake of wide
spread dissaisfaction in acad
emic circles with the so-called
"loyally oath" provisions of
the federal program.
Three Considerations
"In developing this 'across-the-board'
plan of combining
loan and gift for all members
of a class who receive finan
cial aid, the (Wellesley) schol-
tain on the golden age of the
movies.
More than two dozen stars,
directors and producers have
died since Jan, 1, 1059, in
eluding Clark Gable, Cecil B
De Mille, Ethel Barrymore,
Kay Kendall, Paul Douglas,
Errol Flynn, Mario Lanza and
Victor McLaglen.
Curiously, a large percent
age of those who left the
scene during this time were
under 60 years old. Mario
Lanza was only 38 when he
died Oct. 7, 1959. Kay Ken
dall's meteoric career ended
Sept. 6, 1959, at the age of
33, after a downhill fight to
save her health.
Hollywood Shocked
The death of Wayne Morris,
a youthful, vigorous 45, shock
ed Hollywood on 'Sept. 14,
1959.
Pioneer moviemaker Mack
Sennett lived into his 80s as
did veteran character actors
Fred Stone, Taylor Holmes
and Edmund Gwenn.
The deaths this month of
Gable, 90, Sennett, Ward
Bond, 57, and Walter Catlett,
71, brought home to Holly
wood the stunning realization
that its ranks were being
thinned rapidly by death.

By DOUGLAS GRIPP
Salem' - (UPD - Heavy op
position has been expressed
by state legislators to Gov.
Mark Hatfield's proposed
move of Oregon Public Wel
fare Commission headquarters
from Portland to Salem next
spring.
Several legislators have
said they will take it up in the
1961 session.
These opinions and others
were received from a sub
stantial cross-section of the
1961 membership in answers
to a mail poll conducted by
UPI. Those who replied rep
resented both parties and
houses and all geographical
sections of the state.
Sen. Monroe Sweetland (D
Milwaukie) said the legisla
ture should "prohibit" the
Welfare Commission move if
there is "no other way to
forestall it."
Sen. Robert Straub (D-Eu
gene) said there are "superior
resources available m Port
land" for welfare worker
training and cited "unneces
sary hardships" for the wel
fare staff in making the move.
The Legislative Interim
Committee on Welfare is on
record against the plan as well
as the Welfare commission it
self. In an opinion for the
interim committee, Attorney
General Robert Y. Thornton
says that legally Hatfield can
order the move but "primary
authority" for its location
rests with the legislature.
New Building Due
Hatfield wants the Welfare
Commission in the new State
Labor and Industries building
the Capitol Mall within
three months after the build
ing is completed. Completion
is expected in April, 1961.
Most of the commission's
150 staffers have indicated
they will quit first.
Hatfield said he ordered the
move for several reasons:
Availability of extra space
in Salem.
Need for space in the state
office building in Portland to
house other agencies, and a
saving in costs.
The Oregon constitution
calls for it.
-Better coordination with
the governor's office.
Hatfield points out that
since county welfare agencies
serve welfare recipients, the
transfer will "in no way" re
duce the quality or effective
ness of the service in the Port
land area, or elsewhere. Hat
field also notes that the com
mission has a high rate of
turnover in personnel in Port
land and contends that Salem
provides a "relatively stable
labor supply."
The poll showed a three to
one preference against the
move with legislators general
ly following party lines, Dem
ocrats against and Republi
cans for it. A number of Re
publicans declared they would
"have to be convinced."
Pay Hikes Discussed '
On the topic of pay raises
for state employees, the poll
showed a heavy vote for "sub
stantial" increases.
The governor has recom
mended an average 10 per
cent hike for state workers
and 15Vi per cent for higher
education employees in 1961-63.
Oregon Civil Service Com
missioner David Cameron says
the state's employment prob
lem is "acute" because of poor
salaries compared to private
industry and the federal gov
ernment. Recruitment In some
fields is impossible, he said.
Many legislators said while
they favor large increases for
most state workers, they are
against such increases for po
litical appointees.
"There are some areas
where substantial increases
are essential," Rep. Clarence
Barton (D-Coquille) comment
ed. "For example the doctors
at the institutions. I do not
favor any great increases for
political a p p 0 1 n tecs, who
couldn't be driven from Salem
under any circumstances."
Only one legislator said
state salaries should not be in
creased at all.
U.S. EMBASSY DAMAGED
Washington - (UPB - Machine
gun fire caused minor dam
age to the U.S. information
service library in Addis Aba
ba during fighting in the
Ethiopian capital several days
ago, the State Department
said Monday. No Americans
were injured during last
week's attempted revolution,
according to the officials.
Salt Water Conversion
Process Is Developed
Washington - (Science Serv
ice) - A new process for the
conversion of salt water to
fresh water using the vapor
reheat principle was describ
ed by D. F. Othmer, R. F.
Benenati and G. C. Goulan
dris of the Polytechnic insti
tute, Brooklyn, N. Y., to the
American Institute of Chemi
cal Engineers meeting here.
The heat given off during
the condensation of the evap
orated water is used to heat
the various stages as the pres
sure is progressively lower
ed. This lowers the energy
and equipment requirements
for the flash evaporation of
sea water.
