Dr. Rosenlof, Dean Harper and

entertainments for high school
students, campus tours and the
service group's art and publicity
committee, in addition to the fi
nancial status of the Foundation.
New Name Sought
A new name is now being con
sidered by Foundation members
to prevent confusion between the
student group and the University
Foundation. The latter Foundation
would be unable to change its
name due to legal entanglements
of alumnus and friends' wills.
The publication group of the
Foundation will meet soon with
Dr. Rosenlof, registrar, to co-ordinate
all university publications
for high school students. At pres
ent the Foundation publishes the
annual Bulletin, a monthly news
paper and miscellaneous pam
phlets and folders. The university
sends catalogues, official bulle
tins and other information to
prospective freshmen.

in Portland this week-end.
