TUESDAY, JULY 25, 1939 SUMMER SESSION KANSAN PAGE THREE Study of Coals A Kansas Project The Kansas Geological Survey is making a study of the coals of Kansas outside of Crawford, Cherokee, and Labette counties. Over 26 coal beds of which more than nine are being or have been mined, are found in the state outside of these counties. The present study is expected not only to add to the knowledge of the coal reserves of the state, but only to show the possibilities to which these coal may be exploited, either now or in the future. Field work has just been completed in Linn, Bourbon, Leavenworth, Atchison, Brown, and Jefferson counties by R. E. Whitla of the Survey staff. Work is to be carried on shortly in Franklin, Neosho, Wilson, Chautauqua, Elk, Lyon, Coffey Osage, Republic, Cloud, Lincoln, Russell, and Ellsworth counties. The results of this investigation will supplement those obtained in a study of the geology of coal resources of Crawford, Cherokee, and Labette counties which were published as a bulletin of the Kansas Geological Survey in 1938. The visiting instructors on the Summer Session teaching staff of the School of Education entertained the regular teaching staff of the School of Education and their wives at a dinner Friday night at the Elks club.

Slip-Ups (Continued from page one) A story is going about that he became so adept with the machine gun and rifle and got so cocky about his scores that the other fellows playing soldier had to call him Stinky for a couple of weeks to tone him down. Heard today that the Phi Psi house was the scene of big doings Saturday night. Guess they haven't heard about "no chaperone—no social privileges." And just to prove how hard up we are to find something for this column, (as if last week didn't prove that), did you know that the chemistry building has 26 chimneys? And that still idle doesn't help the odor situation any. (Printer's note' At any rate its doesn't help the odor situation of this column, bud.) There is some talk about the A T O boys, (you know, the station wagon set), leasing the Kappa Eta Kappa house next year. Wonder what their boys who enrolled at Washburn because it was closer will do if they move within sight of the Hill. Francis Moore, printer, etc, etc is responsible for many of the more cunning devices found in this paper. Send your wash suits to us to keep that new appearance...
