Survey for Directory
Of Marrufacturers Starts
Portland A statewide sur
vey to obtain information for
the 1961 Directory of Oregon
Manufacturers has been start
ed by the Oregon department
of planning and development.
Questionnaires will te sem
the last week in January to
more than 5,000 Oregon man
ufacturing firms, asking for
information on type of pro
duct, person to contact, street
and mailing address and num
ber of employees.
In asking for the coopera
tion of all manufacturing
firms in completing and re
turning the questionnaire as
promptly as possible, Sam H.
Mallicoat, acting director of
the department, stressed the
directory's usefulness in the
state's programs for economic
development.
The directory, he said, is a
source of basic information
for market research, and is
used extensively in plant lo
cation studies. It also serves
as a buyer's guide, and
used by companies looking for
sources of goods and materials
in Oregon.
The 1959 directory, Malli
coat pointed out, was one of
the deparlmcnts's most pop
ular publications. Some 2,500
copies were sold, going to all
49 other states and many for
eign countries.
The 1961 directory is sched
uled for publication in April.
Bill Prohibits
Racing Interests
Salem-flJPD-Rep. Carl Fisher
(R-Eugene), said Tuesday he
has introduced a bill which
would prohibit members, em
ployees or appointees of the
State Racing commission from
having a financial interest in
horse or dog racing.
The bill also would prohibit
them from making bets.
Fisher said racing in Ore
gon has "always enjoyed
favorable reputation and this
bill will serve as a further
guarantee that the public will
be protected and the commis
sion will not be subject to
criticism."
About 30 per cent of all
U. S. trucks are in 115 large
cities.

Oregon State Will
Start Year-Round
Program This Year
Corvallis-Wilh an eye oni
"year-round school" in the fu
ture, Oregon State college
has announced plans for an
experimental summer school
this year that will correspond
to about a regular school
term.
Tlie usual 8-week session-
attended each year by a grow
ing number of undergradu
ates and graduate students
will run from June 19 to
Aug. 11.
This year after it is com
pleted, however, a 4-weck "in
tersession" will follow from
Aug. 14 to Sept. 8. By putting
the 8- and 4-weck program
together, a student may earn
18 credit hours, or a full
term's work plus, President
A. L. Strand pointed out.
For Graduate Work
Public school teachers, who
look to summer school for
graduate work but who have
to be back "on the job" in
late August, will still have the
advantage of the 8-week sum
mer school under the split
session plan, Dr. Franklin R.
Zcrau, dean of education and
director of summer session
observed. A two-week post
session, which has been held
for many years, also will be
continued.
Oregon Stale has been con
sidering a year-round sched
ule for some tjme, President
Strand reported, and this
year's experimental program
is the first step toward such a
plan in years to come.
A few eastern colleges have
adopted a four-quarter or
three - semester schedule that
runs through the summer
with excellent results, he said.
Students who go the year
round can graduate in three
instead of four years and col
lege facilities and faculty are
used to great effectiveness,
Strand noted.
Future Consideration
This maximum use of class
rooms and staff all the year
will be a critical considera
tion in the future, he empha
sized, as big enrollment in
creases hit college campuses.
As one of the natiun's fastest
growing states, Oregon will
be especially hard hit and
every effort will be required
to accommodate all the stu
dents who want to go to col
lege. Dean Zeran said the sum
mer school schedule would be
carefully planned to provide
varied coursework opportuni
ties for students in this year's
experimental program. Ap
proximately 400 couriei,
workshoos. seminars and ill"
stitutes will be offered by the
various, schools on campus
during the regular summer
session, he added.
The four-week Intersession
experiment will be conducted
on a modest scale for the first
year, but still will offer fine
opportunities for students,
Dean Zeran reported.
He suggested that the sum
mer school would be an ex
cellent time for students un
decided about college to "try
their wings." Students who
are ineligible to enter OSC
because of low high school
grades but who are deter
mined to make good in col
lege may become eligible by
satisfactory work in summer
school, Zeran explained.

Fewer Accidents
Reported in City
During Past Year
Medford ' Police Chief
Charles 'P. Champlin had
nothing but kind words for
Medford drivers today, when
a year-end police report re
vealed that there were few
er traffic accidents and traf
fic injuries in 1960 than there
were in 1959.
According to the . report,
there were 721 traffic acci
dents in the city last year, re
sulting in 122 injuries. In 1959
! there were -f 71; accidents- re
sulting in J66 injuries;-THe
.number of fatalities two
'was the same for both years.
These totals Represent only
those accidents that were re
ported to police.
Speak Well for Drivers
Chief Champlin said the
figures "speak well for the
' drivers," but added that "we
hope there will be further
, decreases during coming
year."
He credited an increasing
' awareness of traffic laws and
traffic hazards, resulting in
? improved driving habits on
the part of drivers, as the
reaspns for the decrease. And,
' he credited both the Medford
r Safety council and his own
department with contributing
' greatly to this increased
awareness.
Champlin pointed out that
' Improved traffic facilities,
such as Eighth and 10th st.
: bridges, have also had a part
to play in the accident de
crease'. Issue Fewer Tickets
In addtion to a decrease in
traffic accidents, the depart
ment issued fewer parking
meter tickets and traffic ci-
, tations last year than it did
the previous year. Parking
meter tickets totaled 39,690
during 1960, compared to 43,-
. 889 during 1959; and traffic
citations totaled 5,557, during
I960, compared to 5,957 dur
: ing 1959.
But, Champlin attributed
the decrease in tickets to" the
department's spending less
time on traffic patrol during
1960. He explained that an
increased criminal case load
has forced the department to
spend less time enforcing traf
' fic laws.
