Statement of Guidelines for
Institutions Reviewed by Board
Ashland-An 11-point state
ment of guidelines for the in
stitutions of higher education
in the state of Oregon was re
viewed and discussed here at
yesterday's final session of the
state board of higher educa
tion. The statement, which was
drawn up at a recent meeting
o the heads of the institu
tions in the state system, es
tablished revised guidelines
for "future growth and im
provemcnt" of the units with
in the system.
Chancellor Roy E. Lleual-
lrn told the board that each
institution will be asked soon
to formulate and adopt its
own set of guidlines consist
ent with the general U-point
statement.
To Consider Adoption
The board will consider
formal adoption of the state
ment of guidelines at its Sep
tember meeting.
The statement declared the
following objectives:
To provide higher educa
tional opportunities for as
many as can profit there
from. To provide a general
education for all who are ad
mitted to the institutions with
in the state system of higher
education so that they will
acquire the knowledge, skills
and wisdom for (1) personal
development and enrichment,
Planning Must Be
Understood, City
Roiarians Told
A program of community
planning must be thoroughly
under stood and vigorously
supported If it is to become
effective, Ned Langford, Mcd
ford director of city .planning
told Rotarinns here Tuesday.
In a luncheon address at the
Rogue Valley Country club,
Langford reminded members
of the Medford Rotary club
that the survey for the City
of Medford, undertaken In
1931, had been "accepted with
joy and filed."
It was a good plan, he said,
expressing the hope that the
current study of immediate
and future needs for this city
would be carefully examined
and not receive the fnte of
the 1031 effort.
Community planning In the
U.S. was first undertaken by
William Penn in Philadelphia
In 17!)1, Langford snid, al
though the Romans adopted
this farsighled practice during
the days of the Caesars, and
the Incas had a program of
community planning In the
early days In this hemisphere.
Plnnning Starts
Medford went in for city
planning bark In 1022 and
started zoning In 1023. This
is especially significant, the
speaker observed, since first
known zoning In this country
was initiated by New York
City in 1919.
Medford's new planning de
partment, organized within
tiie framework of Oregon
state law, has a staff devoted
to providing information for
the city planning commission.
The Job of evaluating land
uses, projecting population
trends, studying needs of
parks and recreation areas,
and examining the problems
of Medford's central business
district is well under way,
Langford said. All this effort
and study will prove useless
unless it is acted upon.
Joint county-wide study in
which Medford and Ashland
are participating with such
acencies as the highway com
mission, bureau of public
roads, is an example ot "gov
ernmental togetherness," he
observed.
Langford. native of South
Dakota and graduate of
UCLA, has been active in
planning work here for near
ly five years. He was intro
duced by City Manager Rob
ert Duff.
particularly through arta and
letters; (2) responsible partici

(3) an understanding of the
scientific methodology whicn
has wrought a revolution in
the ways of knowing and the
extent and application of
knowledge; and (4) an under
standing of other cultures and
natures as well as our own.
Professional Education
To provide professional
education at both the under
graduate and graduate levels
in selected areas, depending
upon the needs of society and
in selected institutions, de
pending upon their facilities
and competencies.
To provide opportunities
for graduate study that will
enable the state system of
higher education to help meet
the needs of the state and
nation for teachers in the
schools,- colleges and univer
sities and for persons with
Higher Education
Board Sends Plan
For Legislation
Ashland-The Oregon board
of higher education sent
$45-million capital building
program toward the 1963 leg
islature here Tuesday with
a recommendation that Ore
gon products be used for the
buildings.
The board called for a study
of Tongue Point Naval station
as a possible addition to tne
state system.
All board officers were re
elected, including Chairman
William Walsh of Coos Bay.
The actions culminated a
two-day board meeting.
The capital outlay program,
which must reach the state
Finance Department by Aug.
calls for $42 million in
structures and $3 million for
land, planning and matching
funds.
The building committee
spent most of the previous
day reviewing and approving
specific projects In the 1963
(15 plan. The full board rati
fied the committee s actions.
In response to earlier pleas
from the lumber industry for
more use of wood in stute
college buildings, the board
adopted a carefully worded
statement saying the board
"recognizes Its obligation to
utilize materials and services
which contribute to Oregon's
economic growth."
"Architects employed by
the bonrd . . . will continue to

to Oregon products, giving
proper consideration to fac
tors of safety, economy, dura

said.
The statement did not men

said it meant mainly forest
products.
The board will give more
consideration later to some
details of the building pro

Minear Speaks for Educational
Efficiency at School Workshop
balem- It is time a meas
ure of economic efficiency
was applied to school admin
istration and organization in
our state," said Dr. Leon P.
Minear, State Superintendent
of Public Instruction, to an
audience in Eugene July 18.
The state superintendent
spoke to participants in a
school finance workshop cur
rently being conducted on the
University of Oregon campus
about financial needs in the
next biennium for public ele
mentary and secondary
schools.
Dr. Minear went on to say
that "a highly expansive, in
efficient administration unit
may be welcomed as a meas
ure of local control by the
people of a school district. If
such units are to continue in
existence, they should be paid
for by the people in such dis
tricts and not through state
aid and equalization."
S475 Million Needed
In speaking of fiscal needs
during the next two years,
Dr. Minear estimated that
$475,000,000 will be needed
from federal, state, interme
diate, and local sources and
pointed out that this figure
is over $50,000,000 more than
the amount spent during the
current biennium.
The state superintendent
said that during the next bi
ennium over a thousand new
classrooms will be needed in
Oregon to accommodate in
creased enrollment and to re
place out-dated buildings, a
Humble Granted
Oil Land Leases
Salem -(UPD-Humble Oil &
Refining Co. has been granted
an oil lease by the Oregon
Land Board covering 237
acres of state land in Marion
and Linn counties.
This settled a dispute be
tween Humble and Willard
Farnham, Portland, over who
was entitled to the tract.
Farnham's application was
made Nov. 29, and Humble's
Dec. 1. The board's policy is
a first come, first served basis,
but Farnham was ruled ineli
gible because his bond was
faulty.
In other action the board
denied the request of Farn
ham, head of Farnham Chemi
cal Co. of Portland, to com
bine his application for an oil
lease in Coos and Curry coun
ties with one asking for
tracts in Clackamas, Linn and
Marion counties.
significant factor affecting
increased financial needs in
the next biennium.
By 1965. 12,000 more pu
pils will be enrolled in Ore
gon schools, requiring more
teachers, more supplies, more
equipment and more transpor
tation facilities.
Community College Costs
A community college devel
opment program would re
quire an estimated $9,000,
000 for operation and con
struction needs from state
sources alone during the next
biennium. An additional $1,
000,000 from local sources
will be needed for construc
tion. Minear pointed out that a
comprehensive educat i o n a 1
program that will help equal
ize educational opportunities
for all Oregon children needs
to include expanded school
services.
This would include finan
cial grants for kindergarten
and summer schools, exten
sion of the school year, spe
cial programs for the physi
cally handicapped, mentally
retarded and gifted, and util
ization of improved equip
ment, techniques and media.
Measure of Efficiency
Minear stated that "an effi
cient school finance program
is measured not only by the
total cost necessary to realize
a carefully planned education
al program, but also by the
means employed in raising
and distributing a sufficient
sum of money."
The state department of
education believes that a fi
nance program should assure
adequacy of funds, be a part
nership program between the
state and local school districts,
be designed to give maximum
quality of educational oppor
tunity for all pupils, and give
reasonable equity for taxpay
ers. Suggestions Made
To satisfy these principles
partially in the next biennium
and more completely in the
future, said Minear, the state
department of education sug
gest that the state aid appro
priation be sufficient to yield
the amounts recommended by
the 1959 interim committee on
education, which in terms of
census children would be
S135 per census child for
1963-64 and $150 per census
child for 1964-65.
This would approximate for
1963-64 $77,000,000 of 46 per
cent of the current expendi
tures of all school districts
for the year of apportionment.
In 1964-65 $87,000,000 or 48
per cent of such current ex
penditures would be appropri
ated and thereafter the per
centage of current expendi
tures would remain at 50 per
cent.
Coordinated Methods
The department also sug
gests that the methods em
ployed in distributing revenue
tr-.m state, intermediate, and
' jrtain federal sources be co
ordinated to achieve, most ef
ficiently, well-defined educa
tional and financial objec
tives, and that continuing
