Sharp Cutbacks In OTI Construction
And Programs Forecast By Purvine
Oregon Technical Institute
President Winston Purvine Mon
day predicted sliarp cutbacks in
programs and construction at
OTI as the -result of the turn
down of the legislature's tax
program by Oregon voters.
Purvine spoke to a meeting of
the Klamath Board of Realtors.
He said it has been deter

Belgian Cardinal Urges
Council To Admit Women
VATICAN CITY (UPII - Leo
Cardinal Suencns, one of the
four executive moderators ap
pointed by Pope Paul VI to di
rect Ecumenical Council discus
sions, today asked council fa
thers to admit women to their
secret sessions in St. Peter's
Basilica. . .
The Belgian cardinal also
asked that lady auditors, admit
ted for the first time to the sec
ond session, be increased in
number and made more repre
sentative in their selection.
He also suggested that repre
sentatives of religious orders
who teach the Gospel through
out the world, both men and
women, be invited to the coun
cil sessions.
Cites Women's Uole
The cardinal argued that
women make up half the pop
ulation of the world and that on
this basis they should have
some voice in the debates on the
nature and role of the Catholic
Church in the modern world. .
The cardinal clearly appeared
to mean that both nuns and lay
women should be' admitted to
council sessions.
Cardinal Suencns said that
not only members of the hier
archy have special gifts from
the Holy Ghost, but all mem
bers of the church.
These gifts, if not directed by
church authority, can be "dan
gerous and disorderly," but the
hierarchy must not make of the
church a purely "administrative
apparatus" and thereby limit

Today "will be a crucial day
for the city." said the Rev.
Fred L. Shuttlesworth, one of
the city's top integration lead
ers. "It will be a crucial day
for all of us."
Birmingham policemen have
come out strongly asainst the
hiring of Negroes. They have
warned the council it would re

lice force.
George Seibels, chairman of
the council's Public Safety
Committee, has given no indi
cut of $105,000 in its budget
without lowering the quality of
education offered at the insti
tute. His report on possible cut
hacks has been sent to Salem

Further, Purvine said OTI
faces possible slashes of at least

God, he said.
It was in this light that the
cardinal suggested a wider rep
resentation of religious and lay
persons, both male and female,
at the council.
Church-State Debate
U.S. bishops also were report
ed preparing a statement on the
need for a modern view of
church-state relations.
This is one reason for the
U.S. hierarchy's strategic si
lence on a sentence in a docu
ment now being debated which
clashes with the cherished U.S.
Constitutional concept of sep
aration of church and state.
The sentence says that Cath
olic faithful will "legitimately
oppose the-unfortunate separa
tion" of church and state.
It is in the third chapter of
a dogmatic constitution on the
church which deals with the
role of Catholic laymen in the
church and the world. Council
fathers began debate on it a
week ago. . -
. Tho. Americans feel , a docu
ment on the layman is not the
place to debate church-state re-v

The main item that faces re

items that may have to be cut
include lawns, sprinklers, land
scaping, streets, parking lots
and the lighting system.
Purvine explained that t h e
radioactive isotope laboratory is
designed to be used to train
atomic technicians for two
hours each day and serve as a
physics laboratory the other
eight hours of the school day.
Purvine also gave a brief
progress report on the new

He said a classroom building

probably be finished in a few

Swim Star
Responds
In Hospital
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI -A
former University of California
swimming star who lost both
legs in a bay accident Sunday
was reported responding t o
treatment at Letterman Gener
al Hospital today.
The victim, James Small, 27,
was still listed in critical condi
tion, but doctors said his blood
pressure had risen after he re
ceived 36 pints of blood in trans
fusions. A hospital spokesman
said Small was "conscious, re
sponsive and alert."
Coast Guard officials, mean
while, were engaged in a lively
debate over who was re
sponsible for the accident that
almost claimed Small's life.
Small was among 12 members
of the Dolphin Club competing
in a long distance swim across
San Francisco Bay when the
32 foot fishing boat, the 'Pacific
Dawn, cut through the swim
mers at an estimated speed of
12 knots. The boat's propeller
sliced off Small's right 1 e g
above the knee, and small's
left thumb. ',
A Dolphin Club official said
the Coast Guard had been no
tified in advance of the race
and implied that the Coast
Guard should have provided an
escort boat for the swimmers.
Rear Adm. Allen Winberg of
the Coast Guard denied having
received notification of the race.
"However, even if the Coast
Guard had been advised, the
accident still could have taken
place," Winberg said, "because
the Coast Guard docs not have
the facilities to escort such
swims."
Dolphin Club members agreed
that fast action by the Coast
Guard probably saved Small's
life after the mishap. A Coast
Guard cutler reached Small
and brought him ashore within
seven minutes after receiving a
distress call from the Pacific
Dawn.

High Court Ruling Gives
New Hope To Genovese
WASHINGTON (UPI (-Racket
cluef Vito Genovese's long
shot chances of reversing his
narcotics conviction and re
gaining his freedom were kept
alive today by a Supreme
Court ruling.
The high tribunal Monday or
dered the U.S. Appeals Court in
New York to reconsider Geno
vese's demand that his convic
tion be set aside and anew
trial granted.
The man tagged by Senate
crime investigators as the
"boss of all bosses" of the
Cosa Nostra syndicate, howev
er, will remain in Leavenworth
federal prison hospital while
the appeal is pending.
He is serving a 15-year sen
tence and the Justice Depart
ment said that he would be in
eligible for bail while his attor
ney argued the case.
Disappointed By Ruling
Government officials who had
been hoping the Supreme Court
would reject Genovese's bid for
a new trial were keenly disap
pointed by the ruling.
The decision's effect on the
Cosa Nostra hierarchy could
not be determined immediately,
federal officials said, but It ap
peared likely that there would
be no change because of it.

Natural gas travels smoothly In its steel
pipelines from the producing fields to your

at others -soaring high over rivers and
chasms on graceful bridges. 1 Paso Nat
ural Gas Company's 54 pipeline bridges,
three of which are shown here, have been
engineered to solve a special expansion-and-contraction
problem: a 2,100-foot sec
tion of metal pipeline will vary as much as
two feet in length between the coldest
night of winter and the hottest day of sum

pipes are painted white to reduce tempera

work the year around to maintain pipeline
bridges: they are regularly inspected, they
are re-painted, rights-of-way are regularly
cleaned. Chances are you will never meet
these men, but they are working for you
