10 c THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 13 MEDFOBD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Cultural (Interest To Be Revived in Alumni College By HASKELL SHOUT Unilod Press lntprnalianal ATHENS, Ohio (UPI)-Some-thing new in education an "Alumni college" may be come part of the summer pro gram at universities across the country. That's the belief of officials at Ohio university where an un usual experiment for alumni wanting to broaden their cultur al knowledge proved an over whelming success. Graduates might want to brush up on some of the cul tural courses they took or miss ed while in college, reasoned university President Vernon R. Alden. There are special re fresher courses at universities for professional and technical people, Alden pointed out, but he felt there should be an op portunity for former students to spend a few days "with con temporary thought in the cul tural field." All classes at the recently completed wceklong program were "centered on the idea of renewing appreciation for many cultural interests that can ap ply directly to happy family liv ing," Alden said. The success of the program, alumni secretary Jack Gilbert said, was shown by the fact that more than half of the 30 persons in the course said they would return next year. Leach Lectures The classes began at 9 a.m. with students meeting in an air conditioned room at the student center to hear a 90-minute lec ture by Dr. Frederick L. Leach the average person could under' stand its meaning. Following a coffee break, the students attended another 90 minute lecture, this one a dis cussion of contemporary litera ture by Prof. Hollis S. Sum mers. Afternoons were free for rest and recreation, which gave the students time to get acquainted again with their alma mater, the oldest university west of the Allegheny mountains. But in the evening, it was classwork again with lectures on such subjects as Interior dec orating, personal finance and communications media. All the students seemed to find new interests and apprecia tion in matters they didn't have time for or for some reason did were undergraduates. Arthur Charkoff, an engineer with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's rocket laboratory in Cleveland, said he didn't care much about contemporary art when he was in college. "Now I'm fascinated with it," he said. "It's as interesting as anything I have ever done." Mrs. Ralph Ogg, a Pittsburgh housewife, said she decided dur ing the program to try her hand at painting. Her husband, an , we never really take time to do engineer, said that he now is able to "look at art with a good idea of what I am trying to get out of it." Loyal Bemiller, a Mansfield, Ohio, attorney, said he felt the class enthusiasm stemmed from a hidden desire to continue in terests ordinarily dropped at graduation. "We think we will keep up on good literature and continue an interest in art," he said, "but Court Records on contemporary art and how not find interesting when they 3 J sTTirk MKDt-'ORI) MUNICIPAL Benjamin Lewis Kingcry, left turn on red lieht.

Experts Seek To Seal Off Gas Leak ST. LOUIS, Mo. (UPI) Oil field experts today attempted to seal off a massive underground natural gas leak that sent fam ilies fleeing and threatened a huge fire. Workers tried to force a spe cial kind of mud called binto nite down into two pipes through which gas began pouring Wed nesday with a strong, egg-like odor and a deafening, geyser like roar. W. C. (Monk) Griffin, Okla homa City, Okla., and Red Adair, Houston, Tex., known in oil fields the world over as spe cialists in sealing leaks, were called to the scene. The natural gas was stored in the pores of a rock formation, more than a quarter of a mile underground. The gas leaked out of a two-inch hole above the storage facility under 600 pounds of pressure.
