Vote to Decide AAUW Fellowship Program Branches of the American Association of University Women in Oregon will vote on action during the AAUW state convention last month in Gearhart regarding the Oregon state division fellow ship program. Notification that three fourths of the state's branches must ratify the proposed by law change was received Fri day afternoon by the Med ford branch president, Mrs. Calvin Smith. Convention delegates had established the Oregon State Division Endowed American Fellowship Fund. This fund would receive at least $900 each year from state dues. The Oregon state division AAUW graduate fellowships have been given to Oregon women every three years since 1928. The Individual fellowships were for $1,900 Oregon is the only state with such a program, since other fellowships are administered by the AAUW National Foundation in Washington, D.C. Change Planned In the letter received by Mrs. Smith from Mrs. G. M. Whitney, Athena, Ore., state president, she explained that the proposed by-law change, as published prior to the state convention, was for discontin uance of the state fellowship and to transfer these funds to national control. With state delegates estab lishing the Endowed fund and the subsequent voting (not unanimous) of the money to this fund, which is to be held until interest is sufficient for the awarding of a fellowship, Mrs. Whitney explained that this Is an entirely different kind of fund, necessitating ratification by the branches. Mrs. Whitney stated that she had conferred with Mrs. Paul Patterson, Salem, state parlimentarian, and Mrs. Wil liam Haupt, Los Angeles, a member of the association's comimttee on bylaws. Prior to the state conven tion, the Medford branch vot ed not to support the proposed transfer of the fellowship from state to national control. Some 14 Oregon women have received the Oregon Di vision fellowship. Among these is Dr. Betty Lou Dun- lop, Ashland, associate pro fessor of education and field supervisor of teaching at Southern Oregon college. She was elected vice president of the Oregon state division of AAUW at the recent conven tion. Principle opposition to the program as voted at the state convention, is that money will not be available for fellow ships until the fund has reached at least $90,000. It was stressed that action taken regarding the Oregon fellowship will not affect the other AAUW branch fellow- ship programs. The Medford branch has contributed $9, 238 to American and inter national fellowships since it was organized in 1938. For the past seven years it has contributed at least one $900 award and in 1997-98 $1,000 for two. The amount contributed for fellowships this year by Ore gon branches totaled $6,794, 1 Bon Voyage Party Honors Mrs. Svensen Mrs. Helene Halse Svensen, who will leave Wednesday morning for Portland from where she will fly to Norway by the Polar route, was hon. ored at a coffee given Satur day, May 4, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. E.
