This finding has been made public by Dr. J. Francis Rum mel, professor of education at the University of Oregon and director of the Oregon Coop erative Testing Services (OCTS) in the OCTS Bulletin this fall. The OCTS, headquartered at the university school of education and staffed by uni versity faculty members, is the only organization of its kind in the Northwest. It was established in 1953 by various educational organizations in the slate and began operations the following year. Often Test Planning The OCTS offers test plan ning, rental, scoring, evalua tion, and interpretation, as well as special consultation services, to any school in the slate at nominal cost. Its serv ices have recently been ex panded and improved with the acquisition by the univer sity of a new IBM 1620 elec tronic computer which makes possible new and faster test reports.

The survey of testing m Ore gon s secondary scnoois was made in the spring of 1961 by O. C. Christensen of the Ore gon state department of edu cation. The survey shows that 16 per cent of junior high schools in Ihe state do not admin ister any scholastic aptitude tests, 60 per cent use one test, 23 per cent use two tesls, and one school uses a test three times during the three years of junior high school. The situation in tne senior high schools "is even worse, according to Dr. Rummel, since 15 per cent do not use aptitude measures and 45 per cent are using more than one during the four years of high school "From Ihese reports," he wrote, "it is obvious that some schools are using scholastic aptitude tests more often than would be necessary and some are not making any use of aptitude measures." In the area of achievement tests, which are measures of educational development and should be administered an nually to every pupil, the sur vey showed that " sizable percentage" of students are tested in grades 7, 8, and 9 but the percentage drops off "considerably" in the last three years of high school. "Only 33 percent of the junior high schools and only 19 per cent of the senior high schools use achieve ment batteries each year, Dr. Rummel reported. All of the junior high schools use an achievement lest at least once at that lev el, but 16 per cent of t h e senior high schools reported that they do not use any stand ardized achievement test. "Certainly there is a press ing need in Oregon for an In tensive and extensive in-serv ice training program for the personnel in the junior and senior high schools who have the responsibility for the de velopment and administration of the schools testing pro gram," Dr. Rummel observed. "It is highly conceivable that many schools have a good program of testing, but are somewhat weak in lest use and interpretation," he added. "A concentrated program of training in test analysis and in terpretation may also be seri Portland Produce Portland (tJPIi Dairy market: Kegs To retailrrs AA extra larie S3-4SC; AA lame 40-4fic: A large 3n-44c; AA medium 3.V40r; A medium 31-34C: AA small 21-30c; cartons l-3c higher Butter To rrtailers' AA and A prints f)7e; cartons lc higher; B prints aac.

In trading which drove the tickers late for the third con secutive day, the market Wednesday put back $9 bil lion in paper values onto the listed issues. Commodity fu tures, up on Tuesday, dropped Wednesday. A, rally, starting with an upward trend from about noon on the blossoming in the final 90 . minutes, put 18.62 points on the Dow-Jones aver age of 30 industrial stocks. Standard & Poor's index of S00 stocks rose 1.72 to 55.21, and S&P said the increase figured out to a gain of more than $9 billion. Movements in Tuesday's market demonstrated again the sensitivity of the trader to the tense international sit uation arising from the United States declaration of a quar antine on shipment of offen sive arms to Cuba. Trend at the start was downward, but then rumors began that some of the Soviet vessels moving toward Cuba had changed course, thereby lessening the chances of a showdown on the United Stales' search procedures. Late in the day a Defense Department spokesman ac knowledged that some Soviet bloc ships apparently had changed course but others were still aiming for their or iginal destination. Three States Set Tighter Controls On Stock Thefts Salem Tighter controls against thefts of livestock were developed the past week by livestock officials of Ne vada, Idaho and Oregon at a conference in Winnemucca, Nev., according to Roy K Nelson, livestock division chief of the Oregon Depart ment of Agriculture. Nelson says the three states agreed to exchange bulletins on animals reported stolen and on brand inspection violations. He reported persons taking animals Into any of Ihe stales without proper brand inspec tion will be reported back lo the state of origin for possi ble prosecution. Sixteen Attend Sixteen officials, Including Sheriffs Robert G. Ingram of Malheur county, and Eldon Sitz, Burns, of Harney county, attended the conference. Stan Routson, Nevada brand in spection supervisor, headed the Nevada delegation and as sistant chief of brand Inspec tion service, Claud Solders, Boise, was spokesman for the Idaho conferees. In addition to reaching ac cord on interchange of infor mation on livestock losses, the group also discussed back tag ging and trace back programs. Theft problems In the three states are somewhat similar, Nelson reports. He laid Ne vada officials were particular ly impressed with the cooper ation in Oregon between the slate office, county sheriffs and the stale police in mat ters of illegal movement and theft of aiimals.
