The committee will set up a point system to aid in evaluating the various sites that will be 1 considered. The committee will include representatives of the Oregon State Hospital, University of Oregon Medical School, Oregon Mental Health Assn., Oregon Neuropsychi atrlo Society, State Civil Defense Organization, Oregon State Medical Society and the State Board of Health. The people voted at November's general election to build the hospital, which will be located within 20 miles of the Multnomah County courthouse. The board of Control will aslc the Legislature, which meet here next month, to appropriate almost $7,000,000 to begin construction. The board tentatively agreed with Glenn Stanton, Portland archi tect, that the hospital shouldn't be built on the site of the University Medical School In Portland. Stanton said there isn't enough space, and that the hospital should be located a safe distance from Portland if the city suffers an atomic attack. Stanton said a 400-acre site Is needed, and that he believes a site could be "bought for around $200,000. Gov, Paul L. Patterson, chairman of the board, said he doesn't expect opposition to any proposed sites. Such opposition delayed the picking of the site for the new state reformatory, to be built three miles south of St. Paul In northern Marion County, Missing Man's Body Found PORTLAND Ml The body of John J.
