Ph. 4-3134 next two years was approved Wednesday night by the Joint Ways and Means Committee. The committee, in sending the $10,062,000 construction program to the floor of the House, dis carded the fo,600,000 revenue bonding plan and put its projects into the general, lund program. The revenue bonds would have been financed by student pay ments. Only Wednesday mornine it ao- peared several projects might be primmed to incorporate the reve jnue bonding into the general fund proposal. The building program was up for final consideration of the House, but sent back to the com mittee. But Wednesday night the joint committee voted unanimously to expand the general fund program alter several members termed revenue bonding unwise and too costly. I The committee's action will I send the budget to more than 314 j million dollars, the Department of Finance and Administration i estimated. Several committee members said they felt the 40 million dol- liar bonding program for all slate building might be jeopardized if the revenue bonding bill were ap proved. j The construction program to extend over 10 years provides: Portland State College class room building, $2,750,000; Oregon State College central heating plant addition, $990,000: Oregon College ot tducation central heat ing plant addition. $375,000: ad dition to Hoke Hall at Eastern Oregon Collece of Education. $155,000: physical plant addition at the university of Oregon Med ical School. $200,000. Medical research building at the medical school. $1,297,000: ad dition to science building at the University of Oreeon, $1,705,000: Oregon State College physics- chemistry building, $2,515,000; and laboratories at the Univer sity of Oregon Dental School, $"5.ono. The state Board of Higher Edu cation requested 20 million dol lars for the I959-1 biennium. Dr. John Richards, chancellor of the state System ot Higher Education, had told the appro- priation-wriung committee that the Board of Higher Education "would prefer an outrismt appro priation but would settle for the revenue of bonds. He called the Portland State Collece classroom building first priority and said $1,250,000 in lederal funds for the medical re search building at the University of Oregon Medical School might be lost if the building is left out. The big problem now is to en gineer the program through both houses. Sen. Jean Lewis D Portland1, said she is "concerned w won't get anything, but we can try."

Jones said the boy was being held in an undisclosed jail outside ot Brooks County and that rape charges were being prepared Names of rape victims and ju veniles charged with crimes are withheld by state law. Earlier Wednesday, the woman exonerated Jesse G. Graham Jr.. 21-year-old Negro who had been held in connection with the case. She had told officers her attacker said his name was Jesse G. Graham Jr. Graham surrendered to Jones Tuesday night after learning he was being sought by a posse. Jones spirited him to the Thomas ville jail, 29 miles west of Quit man, to avoid possible violence. The woman viewed Graham in a lineup with three other Negroes and said her attacker was not among them. Graham gave the sheriff names of five Negroes he had been asso ciating with and w ho had been in the area where the attack oc curred Tuesday. The 16-year-old was among those named.

He was Tom Cunning, who will be manager of the Los Angeles of fice of the Portland (that's Ore gon) Chamber of Commerce. It might seem presumptuous, if not foolhardy, for some other chamber of commerce to wander into booming Los Angeles, but Cunning says that's not so. j The Cunning plan is to meet in-i dustries which have moved to Los i Angeles and are interested in es-' tablishing branches in the Pacific Northwest. Klamath County Chamber Mana ger R. Frank Tucker emphasized at the session that Klamath and other chambers of commerce in the state have enjoyed excellent cooperation from Portland. He wished the Portland people well in tneir enterprise. NOW PLAYING!
