Oregon Elks Aid Eye Clinic A Brant of $5,478 has been' made by the Oregon State Elks Associa tion to the Children's Eye Clinic at the University of Oregon Med ical School In Portland to continue Its visual program for underpriv ileged youngsters. Almost $82,000 has how been given to the clinic since It was set up by the Elks In 1049, said Frank Hise of Corvallis, chairman of the OSEA's committee for vis ually handicapped children. The clinic plans to' use $1,304 to equip a treatment and minor surgery room in the new Univer sity Hospital, which will be oc cupied in March. The clinio will have its quarters on the 10th floor. Last year, the clinic's research program was greatly expanded, reported Dr. Kenneth Swan, head of the clinic and the opthalmology department. The disease called retrolental fibroplasia, which causes blindness in premature babies, has been reduced by more accurate control of oxygen, he said. A total of 129 examinations were conducted on the eyes of 32 premature babies. The big new research project of 1955 was on glaucoma hardening of the eye ball. The OSEA already has given the clinic $723 to buy an electronic recording apparatus to make direct measurements of the hydrostatic pressure of eyes with glaucoma .disease. Kefaiiver Opens Tour OverNH. ' PORTSMOUTH. N.H. IIP Sen. Kefauver (D-Tenn), still searching . for the Democratic presidential .nomination that eluded him four iears ago, returned today to the state that gave him a stunning victory over President Truman in 1952. The tall Tennessean began a three-day political Invasion of New Hampshire in high hopes of cap turing its eight votes at the Demo cratic national convention. He was also not unaware of the prestige and more practical politi cal benefits that might accompany another triumph in the nation's first presidential primary here March 13. Kefauver's schedule Included a brief stop at Hampton, near the Massachusetts - New Hampshire border, before a visit to Ports mouth, where his supporters ar ranged a reception. Other stops on today's crowded automobile Itinerary Included Dover, Somersworth, Rochester and Nashua, where he will speak at a rally and spend the night. Tomorrow the senator will at tend Baptist Church services in Nashua, speak at a rally in Man chester, the slate's largest city, and then deliver a speech to the New Hampshire Gasoline 'Deal ers'. Assn., in Laconia. Even before his visit, his boost ers here expressed belief that Ke fauver will repeat his 1952 victory. But they conceded he again has a tough fight on his hands. As In 1952. some of the state's local Democratic office holders have declined to back him. Some have Indicated support for Adlal Stevenson, even though the 1952 Democratic presidential nominee has decided not to battle Kefauver in the preference poll. Despite Stevenson's withdrawal, several of his backers have Indi cated they will file a delegate slate favorable to the former Illinois governor. Red Undersea Buildup Seen TAIPEI.
