He said board estimates show that there will be 15,800 stu dents enrolled In 10.10, compared with 11,500 lust term and that there will be 21,500 students in 1000. Dr. Byrne said army estimates show that ubout 10,000 Oregon veterans will get further educa tion, most of them in higher in stitutions. About 30 per cent of these veterans arc married, causing a serious housing prob lem. Enrollment of girls this fall will be the largest in history, nnd about 30 per cent more than last year.

And now that the war has ended, you can confidently continue to regard your Studebaker dealer as a trustworthy source of information on your motoring problems. Some beautiful new Studebaker Champion motorcars in a distinctive skyway styling will be available before long. Hut the production of these cars, for awhile at least, will be less than the demand. And, for u time, eligibility ccrtifi cates, under government rationing procedures, very likely will be required of prospective purchasers. With that In mind, Studebaker dealers arc advising their customers that it isn't safe yet to stop giving consinnt care to most cars and trucks. -To get the facts straight on your personal transportation outlook, drop in and get acquainted with your Studebaker dealer now. THE STUDP.nAK.liR CORPORATION SOUTH BEND 27 INDIANA, U.S.A. Odell Motor Co. lf?ti S&ii& Sift) H3 SSS"S 1 In 1932 Union Oil came out with a new gasoline called 76. We made quite a fuss about it. So did you. For it was demonstrably better than other gasolines on the market -so much better, in fact, that our sales went up by leaps and bounds and new dealers joined us by the hatful If we were to put out that same gasoline today, only 13 years later, it would lose us customers and dealers. For by modern standards it was of a quality a good deal lower than what you're accustomed to now, and you'd recognize the difference instantly, The fact that your sights have ' been raised so, in only 13 years, is due largely to one thing-competition. w People were mere than satisfied with our 1932 gasr line-in 1932. If no improvements had been introduced you'd be satisfied with it today. For you would know of nothing better to compare it with. But competition would not permit us to stand still. For each of us knew that if we could put out a product a little bit better than the rest of the industry we could get more business. Consequently, even the company that was in the lead kept constantly searching for im provements. Progress from year to year was gradual -as it always is. But in 13 years that total progress was considerable. Now if the oil business had been a monopoly -private or governmental-it is doubtful if this would have happened. For there simply aren't the incentives to better your prod uct when you already control all the trade. w So as long as there's room for improvement in an industry,. the only way to guarantee maximum progress is to have an economic system that guarantees maximum tn centives. Our American system with its free competition pro vides these to a degree no other system has ever approached. union OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA This series, sponsored by the people of Union Oil Company, is dedicated to a discussion of how and why American businessfunctions. We hope you " feel free to send in any suggestions or criticisms you have to offer. Wrtu:, The President, Union Oil Co., Union Oil Bldg., Los Angeles 14, Calif.
