MONDAY. AUGUST 23, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE FIVE Enrollment Increases AtOTI W.. D. Purvine, director at Ore ton Technical Institute, said Sat urday that he is through guessing as to this year's enrollment at the mile-high school. .- Advance enrollment at the regis trar's office Friday evening stood at 863.. This number Includes 430 returning students and 433 fresh men. Freshmen last year on Oc tober 3 totaled 428. Total registrar tion. on- that date last! year-was 648. - . . A union crew has been arranged for to start Monday remodeling another building to provide a dormitory to house 114 students. Even with this additional building, Purvine said, all housing is ac counted for at the rate, of four 1 students per room. ,, , . I Additional buildings will' be re modeled as necessary, the direc tor stated. Union plumbers, electricians, painters and carpenters are . to start remodeling a building to house a new auto painting shop ' which will duplicate present facil ities. , Another building will house a complete new body and fender shop. The body and fender shop being vacated will become a serv ice welding shop. The machine shop Is being expanded by the addition tof 36 lathes. - Diesel : remains number one oh the list of total students, with 84 returning students and 102 fresh men signed up for the course. The electronics technician course- is second in popularity with 35 re turning students and ST freshmen signed up. Other courses which are show ing increased enrollment are auto body and fender, auto mechanics technology, surveying technology, engineering design technology,. X- ray and gunsmlthing. The latter two courses Dave a waiting list "Three out of every four stu dents state their reason for choos ing OTI is contact with present or former students of Oretech," Pur t vine stated. "We attribute the increased en- j rollment mainly to the demand Ml ; employers for OTI students and the satisfaction of previous etu is dents with the school," he added. Basin Potato Fields Hit By Infestation Of Aphid A heavy buildup of aphid In certified seed potato fields in the Klamath Basin particularly in the Butte Valley area is causing some consternation among entomologists and insecticide manufacturers as well as the seed growers thenv selves, according to Joe Qchuh, local entomologist. Potato fields'h:ive been hit with the heaviest infestation of aphid since l'J46, and the disease carry ing Insects apparently are becom ing immune to Insecticides form erly used to control them. Operating on the theory that two heads are better than one, Schuh called in several federal entomol ogists to assist in making tests with new Insecticides in an at tempt, to control the pests, 1 Experts from the entomology research branch of the United States Department of Agriculture STATEMENT .

'There is no use for foreign troops to stay in Korea if they are not going to fight communism," be said. stationed at Forest Grove. Oregon, who arrived last week to work with Schuh included: Joe Cham berlin, Charles' Oetzendanger and Cil Deonier. Other men called in were Lee Stevens and Walter Wilson from the agricultural engineering re search department of the USDA. O. R. Ferguson, president of the agricultural division of the Oeigy Chemical Company. New York, and Vernon W. Olney. represen tative of the same company in Fresno, flew into Klamath Falls Thursday to assist with the insec ticide tests. The Oeigy Company and Walker Brothers of Merrill have furnished most of the experi mental chemicals used in the new trials. One government plane was flown from Forest Grove to aid in the spraying program. The plane was piloted here by Harold Bushmey er. Local planes used In the tests included two owned oy Ken Huff man, Malln, and two belonging to Jack Mulkey, Klamath Falls. According to schuh, the insecti cide Vapona, used here for years with good results, is not doing the job th's season, even though the dosage has been doubled as well as the gallonage per acre. Ground applications of Systox did a good Job early in the sea son, but with the vines closed In between the rows It is now nec essary to spray or dust by air plane. Air applications of Systox have not been satisfactory, Ompa, a new chemical never before tried here was flown to this country from Germany and has been Included In the tests as has another newcomer, Diazinon, which was flown here from the Oeigy plant at Fresno. Last year a considerable quan tity of Malathion was used for aphid control with good results. This year it is not doing a sat isfactory Job. Nicotine ia another chemical that has been tried in the tests, according to Schuh. After completing the spray tests Saturday morning, tests were to be made in the afternoon using all available dust type Insecticides in. eluding Malathion. , CUT LABOR COSTS with "Lazy Sue" "Queen of Potato Pickers" LEWIS MFG.
