Buller Holds Lead At Close
Yesterday's Games May Have Upset Top Team's Plan for Championship. However.
Team Standings
Team W L Pct.
Buller 8 2 .800
Howell 7 2 .778
Smith 7 3 .700
Strickler 5 4 .556
Bird 1 8 .111
Caldwell 1 9 .100
Last Week's Results
Buller, 16; Bird, 9.
Smith, 24; Caldwell, 23.
The struggling Bird-men provided the stepping stone for Buller's team to move into top softball position Thursday night. After tying league leaders last week, Buller moved one full game into the lead by a 16-9 win over Bird. Buller and Noble pitched the game.
The final games of the season were played last night, but results were not obtainable for today's paper. In event that Howell won his game from Bird last night, the resulting tie will be played off later this week. If the worm turned and Bird won a game, Buller will be winner of the summer session softball league.
In the second and only other game played Thursday night, the last place Caldwell outfit was nosed out in a slugging battle with Smith, 24-23. Batting averages soared as each team used two pitchers in an effort to stop the near-record number of hits for one game. Smith and Nelson were winning pitchers with Grabel and Turner doing the work for Caldwell.

Water Meeting Conducted Today
Study of Wichita Equus Beds Brings Experts From Governmental Offices
In preparation for the early start ing of the co-operative study of the water resources of the equus beds north of Wichita, a conference will be held at the University today by heads of several co-operating government and state agencies. The meeting has been called by Dr. R. C. Moore, director of the Kansas Geological survey, in direct charge of the water investigation, and is for the purpose of making certain that all agencies concerned are in accord as to respective duties.
FOR SALE
Attending the meeting will be Dr. Dayid G. Thompson, Washington, D.C., senior geologist of the division of ground water resources of the U.S. Geological survey; Prof. Earnest Boyce, chief engineer for the Kansas Board of Health; Ludwig Schmidt, director of the petroleum experiment station of the U.S. Bureau of Mines, Bartlesville, Okla.; and R. V. Smrha, chief engineer of the division of water resources of the Kansas Board of Agriculture. Ogden Jones, geologist for the board of health, and Robert Mitchell of the engineers' office, also are expected to attend.
S. W. Lohman is expected early in August to take active charge of the survey work, which will involve the drilling of scores of test wells in the valley of the Little Arkansas. PWA assistance in the drilling work has been assured. Laboratory tests of water are to be made in the Board of Health laboratories here.
The equius beds represent one of the most important supplies of underground water in Kansas, and are of especial importance to Wichita. Salt water associated with petroleum is endangering the purity of the supply, hence the activity of interested government agencies in learning the extent of the supply, its rate of flow, and present purity. Fragmentary reports in the health board records in some instances will give indications as to whether water already is becoming contaminated by oil-field wastes.
Doctor Thompson arrived at the University yesterday and spent the day with Doctor Moore in conference in preparation for today's meeting.
Operators of rooming houses have only until Saturday to turn in reports on their rooms, if they wish to have them listed by the rooms bureau this fall.

University Graduate Outdoes Builders of Washington Memorial
Climbing into the skies 564 feet—many feet higher than the famed Washington monument—Texas' San Jacinto memorial spire, now under construction, in a sense will be a monument to the University of Kansas quite as much as to the famous battle fought on the scene 20 miles east of Houston. For W. S. Bellows, graduate of the School of Engineering in 1911, heads the construction company putting up the huge shaft.
Mr. Bellows, whose father practices medicine in Kansas City, has been a contractor in Oklahoma City for 20 years. When it was decided to build the monument, the success of his company in past jobs resulted in the contract going to him. Work is pregressing on the shaft at the rate of six feet per day.
Not content with a great spire in itself, designers of the memorial planned a base building under it which will be 124 feet square. Corners are cut from the building to

Characters who have distinguished themselves in Texas history will occupy niches in the hall of honor, which is to be 44 by 45 feet in size in one section of the base building. But this will be small in comparison to the main room, an amphitheater seating 5,000 persons.
Setting up the shaft presented a difficult engineering problem to Mr. Bellows' firm. Work is going forward by means of a steel scaffolding constructed within the shaft, and projecting above the work several feet to allow for elevator equipment. The scaffolding is extended apace with progress on the shaft itself.
The greatest care was necessary in laying the foundation for the ponderous amount of stone and concrete which will go into the shaft. This was accomplished in one continuous operation lasting 61 hours, during which period hundreds of thousands of tons in steel and concrete were set.
A photograph of the shaft in model form will appear in the first fall issue of the Graduate Magazine.
