THURSDAY, APRIL 19. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGOS Flemming Discusses Federal Education Aid for Rotarians This nation has long been rotary of health, education committed to a policy of pro-land welfare in the Eiscnhow- viding educational opportuni ties for all and, with increased manpower demands in this fast-changing, comple.. world, lidded federal aid to education is imperative if that commit ment is to be .'ulfilled. This view was expressed in an address Tuesday before the Medford Rotary club by Dr. Arthur S. Flemming, president of the University of Oregon. Speaking at a luncheon meeting at the Rogue , 'alley Country club, the former sec- Cancer Society To Be On Local Show The American Cancer So, cicty will present its fifth edu cational program at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, April 19, on KMED- TV "Focal Point" as a tribute lo the more than 1,300 Cancer Crusaders now active in Jack ton county. .

No Open Fires in Willow Lake Area The Willow Lake area, lo cated 10 miles southeast of Butte Falls and one mile off the Fish Lake rd., will again be mnnaged under a regulated state o Oregon forest closure. To all the fishermen and forest travelers who intend to visit. Willow lake, the closure means that no open fires can he built along Hie shores of Willow lake except at desig nated and posted camp grounds. The area will be posted with signs, and patrol led by Butte Falls district personnel of the Rogue River jjalional forest. The annual closure Is nec essary because of the threat from fire to surrounding for est land and property in the heavily-used lake area. The fire danger is not criti cal, hut the forest will burn, rangers noted. The forest service cautioned all forest travelers to be careful about the disposal of cigarettes. er administration told of dis cussions in official Washing ton on the subject of added federal support for elemen tary and secondary schools as well as institutions of higher education. Support Programs For the past 100 years the U. S. govcrnmc.it has aided colleges anr uni ersitics through land grant legisla'ion ard has substantially support ed vocational, research and development programs. In the closing days of the Eisenhower a d -n 1 istration positive recommendations were made toward formulat ing a comprehensive assist ance plan to schools at all lev els, Flemming said. The speak er saw no objection to extend ing federal loan.,, not grants, to private schools or. the in terest rale basis of the govern ment's own financing p'us a reasonable service charge. It is sound public policy to help both private and public institutions, including rtudent loans and research funds, he said. After all, Dr. Flemming told Rotarians, approximate ly 40 per cent o all students enrolled In higher education al institutions nr. in private schools. The need for trained manpower neces .tales the need for the resources of both types of schools. Need for Assistance The Increasingly urgent need for assistance to schools at the elcmentar-' and second ary levels can best be met with matching grants to states with a strictly "hands off" policy as far as federal con trol of those funds once the grants are made. Legislation now pending in Congress was briefly dis cussed by Dr. Flemming. One House bill seems t to meet present needs, he said, and expressed the view that a bi partisan approach is essential to success. By 1905, there will be 800,000 more students on American campuses than there are today " Dr. Flcm miiig said. "Uni rsity of Ore gon's present 9.000 enroll ment will reach 12,000 by that dale. "Some $40 million will he needed during the next bien nial period to meet the cost of this state s educations bill. Society pays the penalty if a single student is deprived of opportunity for full poten tial." Oregon's educational sys tem is one of the finest in the U.S., Dr. Flemming said, and every Oregonian has reason to be proud of it. Cooperation between school administra tors and officials is at a high peak and every effort is being made to secure for Oregon citizens the highest possible return for their investment in education. !". ?i il L- &l Religion in America E cape Clauses in Moral Code Of Concern To Church Leaders By LOUIS CASSELS UPI Correspondent 'Thou shalt not steal much." "Thou shalt not bear false witness unless you ?re in a jam." "Thou shalt not commit adultery except when you're really in love . . ." Moses would never recog nize this version of the Ten Commandments. It is a mod ern version. It has never been written down on tablets of stone, but. according to U.S. religious leaders, it appears to have acquired a wide fol lowing. There is great concern among Protestant, Catholic and Jewish leaders about this BEAUTY CROWNED - Sally Ann Hamberlin, 19, is crowned Miss San Francisco of 1902 by Lana Green, right, Miss San Francisco of 1961. Miss Hamberlin, a tall willowy blonde coed at San Francisco State College, beat out eight finalists to win the title. (UPI) Lenten Message Lent Is Time To Enter Spiritual Gymnasium By GEORGE N. SHUSTER Assistant to the President Notre Dame University Roman Catholic Written for UPI To borrow a comparison from the Bible, Lent is a time when we enter a kind of spiritual gymnasium to train once more for a con test which ne.cr ends. The race is run against the clever mcphisto within us-lhe de sire to take the easy way out, lo get more fun out of life than the law allows, to make a pin-up of the ego, and per haps to forget that God is in His heaven and wants us to keep this in mind. Forty days of fasting will of course do no harm. Gener ally we eat too much. But the real job is to stretch out o'.er the horizon as far s the soul will go. Every faith has ways of helping with this. It sug gests prayer, good stiff exer cises in thinking of others who need to be thought about, and reading the story of the divine way with man. The man who keeps at it will be surprised to find at the end how many thingj in life there are he had forgotten about. Meeting Set to Discuss Center Officials of the Oregon Commission for the Blind will meet with the county court and a proposed rehabilitation center committee May 16 in Medford to discuss further plans, according to notice re ccived by the county court yesterday. Clifford A. Stocker, com mission administrator, said he and other commission repre sentatives would make plans for the proposed center for the blind to present for fed eral allocations after they meet with the Jackson county committee. Earlier, Stocker said if the commission is able to obtain matching federal funds, work on remodeling a building for a rehabilitation center may start in October. popular tendency lo add con venient escape clauses to the Commandments which hav2 been the basis of the Judco Christian moral code for thousands of years. Theologians call it "moral relativism." The moral relativist, they say, doesn t ignore moral laws. He just interpcts them to suit himself. To a Point He is honest, up to a point. He is truthful, a good part of i the time. You can trust him, especially if you keep an eye on him. He would never think of robbing a bank. That would ! be criminal, and also dan-; gcrous. But he sees no great harm in clipping the company for a few bucks on his expense account. "They ought to pay me a better salary anyway" (or In pressing a spurious damage suit, "the insurance company can afford it) or in defrauding the government somewhat on his income tax return. "They'll take it all if you let them." If he reads in the newspa per about a janitor who re turned a sackful of money that fell out of an armored car, he sits down and writes the janitor a letter telling him how "stupid" he was. If he happens to be an elec tric industry executive who is caught fixing prices, he blandly explains to a congres sional committee that he didn't do anything really criminal: He just violated a law that was inconvenient to his business. Okay by Him If his favorite TV quiz shows turn out to be rigged, he doesn't get sore at the well. prompted "geniuses'" who played him for a sucker. After all, he asks, who wouldn't lie for $64,000? He does have a code of sexual morality - in fact, two of them. One, which he ex pects his wife and children to follow, is based on Biblical teachings. It forbids sexual relations outside of marriage, with no its, ands pr buts. The other, which he pri vately regards as the only suitable rule for a robust man like himself, is borrowed from romantic movies and novels. It holds that marital infidelity is excusable if it results from a mutual, if fleeting, passion sanctified by the name of love. Don't get the moral rela tivist wrong. He doesn't want to repeal the Ten Command ments. He thinks they are a great guide to conduct, espec ially for the other fellow, and provided, of course, that you don't carry them too far.
