a . . Dr. Flmiir? Extends By ,VDY MERSHON Dr. Arthur S. Flemming, presi dent of the University of Oregon's vast educational complex, Tuesday defended federal aid to construc tion of higher education facilities within the state and over the na tion. In an exclusive Interview with the Herald and News, Dr. Flem ming said it was his belief that aid from the U.S. government, in I the form of construction grants and loans, would not bring auto matic federal controls. ' "Vigilance, however, is the eter nal price of liberty," the prcsi dent paraphrased. . President Flemming said that by 1965, one million more colleg ians will be on our campuses in the United Slates than were there in the fall of I960. This information, he said, was the reason for his stand before the board of higher education in which he charged, "we are fac ing here a critical biennium (1963 65." ' Flemming had gone on to criti cize the board for not requesting planning funds from the federal government for all construction projects contemplated for the 1963 65 biennium. The board had asked each in- filliuuun Ul buuiiui m puuiiLy iiai and seven projects were evaluat ed as to what planning funds would be requested. The total planning funds requested by the board were $38,080. Flemming sub mitted no requests from the Uni versity of Oregon, because he be lieved that two projects were of equal importance.

Touching on a kaleidoscope of educational topics, Dr. Flemming went on to the system of commu nity colleges in Oregon. Three of these began operation this year and came up for accreditation from the board at their Klamath Falls meeting. "They should not be second rate schools," Flemming said, "and should definitely present two dis tinct programs. He termed these the "terminal" and "preparatory' programs. The former will be designed for those I students in technical and voca tional courses which can be ade quately covered in two years. In the second classification. Dr. Flemming sees the community colleges as a supplement to. and almost an extension of, the state's two universities. In general, the program, new to Oregon, will be similar to pro grams in operation for some years in both California and New I York. "The general experience over the nation with these schools," Flemming said, "is that their graduates are able to do very good work when they reach the university or college level. All the courses within the com munity colleges here will be eval uatcd, as will their teachers, by UO and OSU faculty. If approved by them, and by the board of, higher education, transfer of cred its will be established.

Flemming said the attitude of his faculty at U of O was very good toward the community col lege movement. "We want to do anything we can to try and make this program as strong as pos sible." Commenting on his first expe rience at the university as its president, Dr. Flemming said he Ranch House Infants, Destroys Home PRtNEVTLLE, Ore. (AP) Fire raced through an isolated ranch house in Central Oregon Tuesday, killing two infants, 2 and 3 years old, and leaving their young parents homeless and with hardly any possessions. Mrs. Larry Hottell, 21, the chil dren's mother, said she was help less to aid the children, asleep in an upstairs bedroom when the flames broke out. The young housewife said she noticed flames in the stairwell, but when she tried to run up the stairs a mass of flames blocked her way. She rushed outside to find ladder to attempt to get in the second-floor window, she said, but the roof of the house caved in on the children. Her husband, 24, was working on a neighboring rancn in the sparsely-populated area about 80 miles southeast of Frinevule. A passing motorist brought the young couple to Prineville, where Mrs. Hottell was treated . for shock. Hospital authorities said Titan Scores Ninth Success CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla. (AP) An intercontinental range Titan has scored its ninth successful test flight and the launching may have been a critical test for the missile-detection capability of the new Midas IV spy satellite. The Titan roared loft on a 6,100-mile flight Tuesday night as Midas IV whipped over Cape Ca naveral at an altitude of 2,100 miles. The launching was timed to de termine if infrared sensing de vices in the satellite could pick up the exhaust trail of the Titan and relay the information to a ground station. Whether it ' did was not disclosed. Midas IV -was launched from Point Arguello, Calif., last Satur day in another experimental fir ing aimed at developing a system of missile detection satellites able to provide the United States with 30-minute warning of an enemy rocket attack. The Air Force announced the Titan met all test objectives in one of a final series of flights be fore the weapon becomes opera tional late this year.

Fire Kills the names and sexes of the chil dren were not learned from the grief-stricken mother. The motorist who brought them to town, Woddy Fuller of Alaska, took the Hottells to the home of his nephew, James Dunn, abut five miles outside Prineville.

A hotel offered them rooms at practically no charge. A group of Prineville women were scheduled to call on the couple today to see what could be done to help them. Rail Hearing Moves North PORTLAND (AP) - The hear ing Into control of the Western Pacific railroad moved to Port land today and the Southern Pa cific had the first day to put on Its witnesses. The Oregon public utilities com missioner, the Great Northern Railroad and some others are ex pected to offer their views Thurs day, then Southern Pacific's rival, the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, will close out the three-day ses sion. After that, a three-week windup will be held at San Fran cisco. Seattle area . shippers offered their views Monday and Tuesday to Paul C. Albas, examiner for the Interstate Commerce Com mission. Santa Fe had the second day and a long list of shippers and shipper representatives went to the stand to say their Interest would be best represented if Santa Fe took over the Western. Pacific. That company's line from Oak land, Calif., through northern Ne vada to Salt Lake City is the prize sought by Southern Pacific and by Santa Fe. The former says It would permit many econo mies since SP has tracks that, in general, parallel the route. Santa Fe says SP control would be monopoly. Some six weeks ago represent atives of Western states' publicj utility agencies said they pre ferred that Western Pacific re- main independent. DAY! 7J Thoift Idiot Wif fe By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: I'm writing about your spunky answer to the woman whose sister-in-law want ed to move the TV set into the dining room. You said meal time should be family time and that it takes ingenuity and imagination to keep good conversation going. You closed with "It's no challenge to sit glued to the idiot box and watch any thing that moves." I'd like to inform you. Ann Lan ders, that after 12 years of mar riage and 10 years of television I'd much rather look at the idiot box than listen to that idiot who calls herself a wife. And I'll wag er this is why 90 per cent of the men I know watch so darned much TV. LATE LATE SHOW Dear Late Late: I'd like to pose single question to you, and to the 90 per cent to whom you so blithely refer: Who picked these idiots? Dear Readers: Some educators, and even a larger number of mother., have . written to say was wrong when I told a woman she should not be upset because her child missed getting Into the kindergarten class by a few weeks. I told her It s better for the child to .tart a little late than a little early. I am sticking to my original no. iltion. - Those who wrote to complain gave example, of exceptionally bright children who became bored because the educational fare of fered no challenge. I repeat: My advice I. for the average child. If a parent believe, his young- iter Is exceptional! he should have the child's I.Q. tested. Such test, can at the very least pro vide useful clue, and school an thoritles are usually delighted to make special arrangements for the gifted child. A research study by the Illl mi. Association for Childhood Education compared fifth graders and found the late starter, gener- ally did far better regardles. of mental abllltie..

Hedrick already has been sen tenced to 20 years in the Oregon State Penitentiary on another charge of attempted rape. He was arrested in October, 1960 and confessed to that charge. Sent to the Oregon State Hospital in Salem for a pre-sentence ex amination, Hedrick escaped. He was recaptured in March, but deluged the court with a series of legal actions which de layed his sentencing. After being sentenced, Hedrick served notice of appeal. The start of his prison sentence was delayed pending prosecution of the appeal. The indictment for rape was re turned by the grand jury Tues day. It concerned an attack on a 28-year-old Portland woman Oct. 7, 1960. College Frosh Doing Better EUGENE (AP) - University of Oregon officials say his year's college freshmen are doing better in classrooms than those of past years.

Kester Svendscn, English de partment head, agreed, saying. "Instruction in grammar in high school is improving and these are the fruits of it."

They are called phonies. It's permissible to borrow when you don't have enough silver or dishes to serve all the guests, but borrowing to create the illusion of wealth Is fakery.

The former Republican presi dent appeared at a campaign rally in support of Slate Ally Gen. Louis J. Lefkowitz, Republi can candidate for mayor of New York City. He said Democratic Mayor Robert F. Wagner, who is running for reelection, has given the city a diet of "indecision and vacillation. But he levelled most of his cri ticism at Washington Democrats.

Felix, after a tour of Oregon mental institutions and talks with state officials, told a news con ference that the community is the first line of defense in mental health treatment. He called com munity mental health clinics which Oregon eventually will have absolutely necessary. Not only should the community share in the financial burden but it should provide an atmosphere into which the former mental pa tient can return and be accepted, j Felix said. He said it is funda mental to the national way of life for neighbors, to help neigh bors.
