This support, which comes first in the allocation of the funds, Koplin stresses, will be in the form of hiring extra Film-Lecture Set At Britt Center Ashland -Neil Douglas, American adventurer and pho. loeranher-film explorer, will present a film-lecture on the "Magnificent Fury of Alaska Jan. 16. at 10 a.m. in Britt Student center. Among the scenes In this film are an 85-foot yacht al most inundated by 10,000 tons of ice, the world s most spec tacular ice discharging within a few feet of the camera, the Inside Passage squeezed by 5,000-foot mountains; the charge of a 3,000 pound sea- lion, the Alaskan highway 100-mlle-pcr-hour gale, and fishing scenes.

He sailed info the Arctic Ice, explored the Alaska high way beginning with its primi tive days, panned gold at the base of Ml.

Testing Program Funds will also be used to strengthen the counselling and advising programs of the col lege, and in the testing pro gram. In the counselling pro cedure, some support will be allocated for the extra testing being given college enrollees, Koplin said The importance of the coun selling program in the college was pointed out by Koplin since some students are ad mittcd on aptitudes and achievements rather than upon academic records alone. Counsel of these students is an important factor in their success in the college, he said The Honors college, estab lished by the University September, 1960, is to provide the highest possible quality education, both general and specialized, for superior stu dents. Basic to the establish ment of the college was the university faculty's conviction that requirements of the col lege should be that students admitted to it must be care fully sclcced on aptitude and achievement, rather than upon academic records alone, Continuous Program The faculty also stipulated that these students must be offered a solid program of studies that arc continuous from the freshman year through the senior year, and that the desired effect was the development of a community of young scholars motivated and educated by each other and not lost in the vast and unsclectcd student body. Expressing his satisfaction with the confidence implied through the grant support, Dean Robert D. Clark of the University's College of Liber al Arts, pointed out that the funds from the Carnegie Cor poration would enable the pioneering young Honors col lege to become firmly estab lished. The cost of the venture in education for the superior stu dent, he said, is necessarily high. But, he stressed, the costs for educating these bright students docs not ap proach the high costs of reme dial help to the poorer stu- dents.

Speaking before 118 mem bers and guests in the Caesar room of the Mark Antony ho tel was Dr. John Pettley, British-born, now on the faculty of Webb School for Boys, Claremont, Calif. Dr. E. E. Brown, 'president of the club, welcomed a number of visi tors and new members before introducing the speaker to answer his own question 'By Jove, Is This America? The transplanted professor refuted conclusively the can ard that Englishmen have no sense of humor by relating his experiences and impressions since coming to the United States a dozen years ago. Confusion in definitions and usage of words, strange idi oms, bizarre practices, unor thodox driving regulations, and peculiar publicity all com bined to furnish grist for the amusing interlude from the world's woes. In conclusion Dr. Pettley declared he had "come to America to enjoy It, not to compare or to contrast it," adding "I could not have ar rived at a better time, when this country is becoming the leader in world affairs. I have discovered a land of tremen dous energy. God bless Amer ica." This was Dr. Pcltley's sec ond appearance before the Ashland club. He spoke here in December, 1957.

The occasion was a jammed- packed Friars club $200-a- platc testimonial dinner Sun day night honoring the quiet actor for his 30 years before movieland's cameras. ' About 1,500 friends and celebrities were there to poke good-natured fun and deliver heartfelt praise to Cooper, a two-time winner of academy awards. Looking uncomfortable in a tuxedo that seemed too small for his lanky frame, Cooper shyly listened to both praise and jokes. White-haired poet Carl Sandburg, referring to Coop er's frequent use of "yup" in his films, said, "You are one of the greatest illiterates this country has ever known."

Along with the other stu dents of her class, she had been taking part In a project in her English class which consisted of reviewing new books for children of a jun ior high school level. Mrs. Phyllis Michaels, eighth grade teacher, selected the best written of the reviews and they were published in a local newspaper. Several days later in the mail, Angela, who had reviewed the book "Night Hawks," a basketball story, received an autographed copy of the book from its author, Gene Olson, who lives in Grants Pass. Murphy school has a new teacher on its staff, Mrs. Edith Baker, of Grants Pass, who formerly taught in the Medford school system. Her husband. David Baker, is a teacher and coach at Fort Vannoy elementary school, also a Josephine county school, and her new position will make their commuting problems much simpler. Mrs. Baker has a combined fourth and fifth grade, which was made necessary by the overcrowding in both regular fourth and fifth grades par ticularly the latter which, until her addition to the statf, had 46 pupils.

Maurine Neuberger, D-Ore., Saturday spelled out a liberal legislative program that she said would "meet the demands of our times." Speaking at a luncheon meeting of the National Fed eration of Business Women's Clubs, Mrs. Neuberger listed what she called "major legis lative tools for lifting our sights to new horizons." "National goals of the fu ture must be beamed to high achievement as proof to the world that our system of de mocracy has the vitality and capacity to meet the demands of our times," she said. Mrs. Neuberger touched on foreign policy, health pro grams, education, conserva tion and protection of con - sumers in her prepared speech to the women s group. Favors Medical Care The Oregon Democrat said she was in favor of medical care for the aged through the Social Security System. She also urged a world health pro gram for underdeveloped countries. America's competitive posi tion in relation to the Soviet Union could be improved through a program of federal aid to education, she said. Mrs. Neuberger also called for greater attention to the conservation of natural re sources, a subject with which her late husband, Sen. Rich ard L. Neuberger, long was associated. "In meeting challenges of the Soviet Union, the outcome may be determined by our ability to wisely use the for est, mineral, water and soil resources with which we have been endowed," she said. Legislation dealing with consumer protection, such as the Pure Food and Drug Act, were referred to by the Ore gon senator as "areas of my own legislative interests."

CHIFFON W MUM - - ornfli liquid chiffon lmr-mf is SJ M - STARCH SOAP mMLS4 M Five - Year - Wants To By MARY ANN CLINTON United Press International San Francisco-ll'PD-Theresa Keller is 5 years old and she can't decide whether to be an artist, a ballerina or a nun. She already has a head start on the first occupation, art, according to her father, John J. Keller, 56, a San Francisco art restorer. Keller says his rosy-oheeked little girl has sold about 30 paintings since she started painting a year ago. "I never told her to paint," said Keller, who runs the Zieniewicz Art gallery. "She just came in the studio one day and said 'dad I want to paint too.' So I told her to go ahead." The paintings, which sell for between $7.50 and $22.50, have grossed about $385 so far. "People would come in and see a painting like this and ask how much it cost," he said 1 pointing to a crimson abstract painted by a professional. "I'd say $150 and they'd ask if I had anything cheaper so I'd show them .one by Theresa." Crayons Favored Theresa uses oil, water col ors and crayons but she says emphatically with a shake of her short blonde bob that "crayons are my favorite." Many of her crayon prints resemble the work of any youngster. Her abstract oils, which have sold the best, are perhaps more primitive but Police Get Driver Testing Police Cars Sierra Madre, Calif. - (UPD -David Dlein, 21, caught by police after an auto chase during which he allegedly committed 14 traffic viola tions, explained why he drove here from his nearby home in Duarte. "I heard you had fast police cars over here," Klein said. "I just wanted to find out for myself." New York About one-half of men's and boys' clothing is manufactured in New York. WmM Old Katf Stare Sh Be. Artist op Ballerina also more comparable to adult art. Her art work is interrupted by daily kindergarten classes and also by her attachment to a life-sized baby doll with blue eyes to match her own. She put down 'ier doll long enough to grab a paint brush in her chubby fist and give a dry demonstration. "This is the way I do It," she said making paintless strokes over an already com pleted oil. No Lessons Keller said neither he nor his daughter have had lessons. "I want to bring out what's natural in her," he said, ad ding that her color sense is her best painting asset. Theresa's mother, Nina, a Polish refugee, does not paint. But her sister, Eugenia, 1, ALDEN F.

"Just look at this," Keller said pointing to Eugenia's pen- cil scribblings on the studio woodwork. A half dozen unsigned works by Theresa hang in the studio now. Keller plans a full exhibition in about threa months. "When someone comes in and buys a painting we guide, her hand to sign it," he said. Will she continue? Keller seems to think so. Theresa isn't too sure. "There's too much time to wait yet," she said, adding that dancing and being a nun were possible future careers. She is sure of one thing. If given a choice of keeping either her doll or her paints she says she would choose tha doll. i ' a, Exclusive Automatic Soak Exclusive Summersault Washing Exclusive Flowing Heat Four Automatic Drying Cycles Budget Priced 5 Year Warranty Dealer for the Past 30 Years" PHONE SP 3-4541 Human TAKE YOUR NEXT PRESCRIPTION TO PAY LESS SP 3-7474 tabs Sc Gold Tablets 6Sg -i ? o a O O
