Familiar Theme Is
Noted During
Engineers Week
Corvallis - National Engi
neers Week is: Being observed
now in the U.S.! and the
theme,; though familiar, is underlined-
this year: Wanted
more' bright young men, and
women, for engineering ca-
-reers;i'
i . Engineering enrollments
across, i the country have de
clined the past threi or four
years, Oregon' iSCato1' college
officials "point ,outj' and the
drop is causing, increased con
cern because engineers are so
vitally needed iby industry,
state, and federal agencies,
and' the military.
Jhe i enrollment dip has
been caused by two or three
things, according to Marvin
Haitlfc personnel director for
. the OSC school of engineer
ing. 'One is that science has
attracted increasing numbers
of ,top students away from
.engineering.
Demand As Great
Another was the mistaken
notion that the supply of en
gineers was beginning to run
ahead of the number of jobs.
The, truth is that the demand
for engineering graduates is
. as great as ever before in
, the past, Haith says.
Starting salaries for engi
neering graduates continue to
go up too, he noted. This
year's June engineering grad
uate will start about $545 a
month on the average, about
$25 a month more than last
year.
The call for engineering stu
dents with advanced degrees
has gone up sharply and a
record 82 students are work
ing for master's and doctor's
degrees in engineering this
year at OSC.
Electronic advances have
put electrical engineering
graduates in greatest demand.
Civil engineers are especially
needed too for highway pro
grams. No "decline in the
need- for engineers" can be
seen by anyone in years to
come, Haith says.
Approximately 130 compa
nies and 50 state and federal
agencies will come to the
campus for job interviews
with the 285 engineering sen
iors this year, he reported.
During January, there were
four or five companies con
ducting interviews, on the av
erage, each school day.
Baltimore was incorporated
as a city in 1729.

Major Farm Groups
Endorse Kennedy's
Surplus Program
Washington- IUPD -Two of
three major farm organiza
tions have endorsed the Ken
nedy administration's 1961
emergency program for cut
ting farm surpluses.
The endorsements from the
National Grange and National
Farmers Union came in testi
mony prepared for a House
Agriculture s u b c o m mittee
hearing.
AFBF Dissents
A sharp dissent came, how
ever, from the nation's larg
est farm organization, the
American Farm Bureau Fed
eration. President Charles B.
Shuman called the administra
tion program "unworkable"
and said it would be "highly
disruptive to the livestock,
dairy, and poultry industries."
The administration plan,
outlined by Agriculture Sec
retary Orville L.. Freeman
Tuesday, would give in
creased price supports and
conservation payments to
farmers who agreed to retire
20 per cent of their feed grain
acreage.
Reuben Johnson, an official
of the Farmers Union, said
Searchers Find
Tillamook Boy
Tillamook - (UPI) - State po
lice, sheriff's deputies and vol
unteers were called out to
search for a missing boy who
was feared drowned in a liq
uid fertilizer tank on the
farm of O. K. Tittle near here
Al and Pearl Balzer, who
live on Tittle's farm, sent out
an alarm about 9:30 p.m. when
they couldn't locate their
youngest son, Milo, about 4.
Officers and neighbors
rushed to aid in the search.
The tank was pumped out and
after an hour, it was shallow
enough to determine that the
boy wasn t there.
With flashlights, officers
surveyed the creek banks
nearby in boats.
Then Officer Dan Harmon
of the State Police walked
into the barn to look around.
Milo was sound asleep in
the grain bin.
KEEPING TIME
New York - (UPI) - Women
keep closer tabs on time than
men, according to Robert
Mohr, vice president of Timex.
A survey of the time-checking
habits of 3,500 men and wom
en. Mohr said, gave these re
sults: An average of 24 times
a day for women; 18 times for
men.
the plan was "worthy of the
support of Congress." John
son urged the subcommittee,
however, to set 1961 corn sup
port at $1.30 per bushel in
stead of the $1.20 proposed.
Would Stop Buildup
Roy Battles, spokesman for
the Grange, said the adminis
tration proposal would stop
the buildup in feed grain sur
pluses without reducing farm
income.
Shuman attacked the pro
posal to raise price supports
for feed grains and said it
would result in farmers' in
creasing per-acre production
on the land which remains in
feed grains. He also attacked
Freeman's companion pro
posal to raise support prices
for soybeans as a "most un
wise move."
Three Astronauts Willing To Go on Next Mercury Shot
Cape Canaveral - IUPD - Two
of the three astronauts select
ed as finalists to ride Amer
ica's first manned rocket said
Wednesday they would be
willing to go up on the next
Project Mercury shot without
further tests. '
The third finalist was not
here for a news conference
this morning.
"Yes, I sure would like to
ride it," said Navy Comdr.
Alan B. Shepard Jr. Marine
Lt. Col. John H. Glenn Jr.
echoed his sentiments with a
firm "absolutely."
Other Tests Uncertain
Glenn and Shepard were
chosen along with Air Force
Capt. Virgil I. Grissom to be
gin training for a flight in a
space capsule aboard the Red
stone shot, possibly by April.
But it was not certain today

Grissom, who was at a Mer

Tuesday's firing of a Mercury
capsule over the Atlantic
Ocean aboard an Atlas rocket,
was not available for a press
