Sunday, September 29, 1963Bgf f g GfadCS THE OWL HOOTS Jacob On Bridge By ALMON L, GEISS Giant steel frames perched on tapered concrete piers might well be the terminology for describing three buildings on the new Oregon Tech campus. The administration, librarv-commons. ' and physical education buildings hover like skeletons above the nearly com pleted laboratory and classroom buildings. Concrete piers, like evenly placed monuments in a square arena, mark the location of the huge instructional shops building which will be 350 feet square with piers supporting 70-foot steel spans. The physical plant Duiia ing, the other of the five build ings presently under construc tion, is also in the concrete- pier less steel - superstructure stage. Within the next few days, '.etnercte will be poured prelim inarv to construction of the resi dence hall. This portion, designed for 328 students, will be one-half of the first residence hall com plex. Construction of the nuclear sci ence building, which is to be built in the canyon at the north east corner of the campus, will be delayed at least until after the Oct. 15 tax referral election. , New students arrived on cam pus on Tuesday to the extent of 6training campus housing facili ties. The new students were test ed and oriented on Wednesday and Thursday and were registered on Friday. It is predicted that approximately 1,000 students will be enrolled at Oregon Tech this year; however, sturdy figures will not be available until after Mon day's registration of advanced students. Serendipity, a perlcetly good word which means "an assumed gift for finding valuable or agree able things not sought for, ap pears apropos to Dr. iPurvine at the president's reception held Wednesday evening. The faculty lingered after the reception for new students and presented -President and Mrs. Purvine a pearl in an oyster shell garnished with the green side of a $100 bill on the occasion of their 30th wed ding anniversary. The following letter received by Professor Baird, head of the Elec tronics Department, indicates that a promotional rather than a pro- lcssional person may be operat ing in one of our neighboring cit-, ies. What he proposes to offer for, $395 and a few short months of I study is substantially more than Oregon Tech can offer in t w o years and at a much greater cost. Dear sir: My husband was talked into enrolling in a home course in electronics, by a sales man from Industrial Training In stitute, Inc. 2150 (Lawrence Ave nue, Chicago 25, HI. I went to the electronics Dlant here in town and they recommend. ed we write to you and find out if1 this company is a reputable one The salesman promised a high paying lob of $1,000 to $1,500 a month, upon finishing the course, with a firm in Oregon. The firm here in town didn't recognize the company at all. Could you please tell us if you know of this com pany, if my husband would be qualified for a good job here in Oregon when the course is com pleted? The total cost of this course is $395.

This is the beginning of the fourth year in which this opportunity has been available to us through the cour tesy of the Herald and News This writer is glad that it is getting time for the Owl to hoot again. Immediately after the last "hooting" in the spring, my wife and I spent six weeks in 37 states. We visited the state depart mcnts of education in 20 states conducting a study of technical education. For persons who had never been out of the West and Midwest before, it was more than just an interesting trip. We now have our impressions of the South, New York and the Atlantic Sea board states, and the New Eng land states with their beautiful countryside. We know now why persons - feel that there is no place like home, regardless of where they live in this beautiful country of ours. Bid Record Successful By OSWALD JACOBY Newspaper Enterprise Assn. The transfer bid is not perfect, but it is remarkable to note the steady record of its success. When it does fail to produce a winning result the reason is most likely toi Be a mistake by us user, not a defect in the bid itself. However, the Eastern experts have worked out a defense against tne Did and I can report on the defense and its results. I have been transferring for 10 years, Defense has come up exactly three times m that period. Twice it made no difference in the final result. The other time it fixed me. North's double of two hearts showed hearts. If he held hearts, diamonds and clubs he would have bid two spades. After I bid two spades in the East seat Jackie Begin of Montreal who held the South cards bid three hearts. West bid four spades and North saved at five hearts. The game was du plicate and all I could do was to double. Jackie had a few anxious mo ments in the play. She had to hold the loss to two tricks and we cashed two spade tricks right off; Hie bat. Then I shifted to the nine! of diamonds. Jackie took the dia mond finesse and her first hurdle had been passed. A trump lost to my ace and I led a second dia mond which was won by South's ace. Jackie drew trumps and threw me in with her last diamond. 1 had to lead a club and this auto matically left her only one club1 loser. This gave her a minus score ot 300 'points, but most East-West pairs bid and made four spades for a score of 420.

Even if you feel you know all the tricks al ready, read these columns any way. There might be some short cuts you haven't found. But before we start discussing specific study techniques, you should develop some basic atti tudes and points of view that are indispensable to effective studying. The first point of view you have to develop works this way; slop and think about your courses all your courses. What are they getting at? What are you learning in school? Think about it for a minute. Are you learning to rea son better? Are you becoming more receptive to ideas? The courses you're taking this year I will they help you think more clearly? iFor instance, algebra and Latin.) Will they help you express yourself better? lAny foreign language will help you understand your own.) Will they help you understand the forces that are shaping your world? (For instance, physics, sociology, and history.) The point is. do you just en dure your courses, or do you really try to get something out of them? If you start with the attitude that school is unpleas ant, you'll be right it will be. But if you make an effort to see what your courses can do for you, then school can be a real pleasure. The next step is to start to de velop an approach to each one ot your courses in particular.
