its operations into the federal

payer. "
The statement was present

Pre-Enrollment Plan
At SOC Clarified
Ashland The new pre
cnrollmcnt program started
this summer at Southern Ore
gon college has caused some
apprehension to prosepective
freshmen, college officials
have announced.
This was brought to the at
tention of the college admin
istration, which hopes to clar
ify the matter.
The pre-enrollment program
was designed to aid incoming
students by relieving tension
caused by many new students
enrolling at one time, officials
said. Although more than 400
students have pre-enrolled,
there are still places available
for students who can qualify
to the normal requirements
needed.
Orientation Week for in
coming freshmen begins Tues
day, Sept. 18. Regular enroll
ment begins for new and old
students, Friday and Satur
day, Sept. 21 and 22. The last
day to register without pen
ally for fall term classes is
Tuesday, Sept. 25.
Any person registering af
ter Sept. 25, but before Mon
day, Oct. 8, will be assessed
late enrollment fees. The last
possible day for enrollment is
Monday, Oct. 8.
Any student desiring to en
roll at SOC this fall who has
not started enrollment proce
dures should contact the reg
istrar's office as soon as possi
ble, college officials said.
private and public funds."
He said private construction
of the dam would assure a
supply of power to private
utilities in Oregon. He said
since Washington has a larger
number of public utilities than
Oregon, Oregon private power
companies are at a disadvan
tage in a power shortage as
public utilities have first call
on federal power.
The governor said h e
agrees with the engineers'
major water plan in so far
as it provides increased water
and flood control. But, he said
he is "displeased" that two
navigation projects have been
dropped from its recommenda

and would extend navigation
to Rock Island Dam in Wash

ties can be justified, he said,
by the fact that river tonnage
has increased after every ma
jor navigation improvement.
Hatfield termed the Colum
bia system of dams "not a
well-balanced system" at the
present time. He said greater
amount of storage for flood
control regulation and hydro
electric power is needed as
well as the "enhanced facili
ties for navigation, conserva

He said, "we realize that
