SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
E. A. Stephenson Named As Petroleum Teacher At University
A department of petroleum engineering at the University took first definite form this week when Chancellor Lindley announced the appointment of Eugene A. Stephenson, now at Rolla School of Mines, Rolla, Mo., to be professor of petroleum engineering here.
The department of petroleum engineering this winter completed installation of distillation apparatus, at a cost of some $4,000, and is thus equipped to undertake a great range of tests in the field of distillation.
Through co-operation of the Kansas Geological Survey, of the Kansas Board of Health, and the University's department of geology and of chemical engineering, it is proposed to establish a department for the training of oil-field and oil refinery engineers, and for research in all the problems of the petroleum industry.
The State Board of Health, through its engineer, Prof. Earnest Boyce, is particularly interested in the disposal of oil-field wastes—salt water, for example, and the Geological Survey is just now mapping a program of further geological exploration to uncover mineral resources of the state. (From the geologists' standpoint, oil and water are mineral resources).
Professor Stephenson received his B.S. degree from Adrian College, Michigan, in 1905, and his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1915.
Leave for Europe On Vacation
A two-months visit to England, France and Scotland will be the vacation taken soon by Miss Ruth Hoff, periodical librarian at Watson library, Miss Vida Ruth, Watson, librarian at Lawrence Memorial High school, Miss Otta May Bischof, '33, and Elra Key, University graduate and now a student in a Chicago theological seminary.
The party plans to sail Wednesday of next week, on the Aquitania from New York. They will go first to London, then to Paris for the exposition, back to England and up the east coast to Scotland, and down the west side of the island before returning home. They will return early in August.
Miss Watson and Key will attend the Universal Christian council at Oxford from July 12 to July 26.
Miss Hoff plans to leave tonight for Washington, D.C., where she will visit Miss Hope Murray, formerly secretary to C. M. Baker, director of libraries. She will go from Washington to New York in time for the sailing Wednesday.
NOTICE
All students who are enrolled in seminar in education administration, educational psychology, research problems in any phase of education or who plan to write a thesis during the summer session are asked to meet Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 in room 115 Fraser, according to an announcement by B. A. Nash and J. W. Twente, professors of education.
Are You Seeking A Job?—Read This
Akron, Ohio, (UP)—A blueprint for success for 1937 job-hunting college men is offered in a six-point "scorecard" devised by Bert S. Taylor, of the B. F. Goodrich Company. In selecting new employees, Taylor rates students on the following six points:
Possession of a manner that would make others say: "I wish we had hired him."
Breadth and diversity of present knowledge—"intelligence."
Ability to apply knowledge to problems and new situations— "horse sense."
Probable success in winning cooperation of others—can he inspire loyalty?
Fingernails cleaned, trousers pressed, shoes shined and hain combed—"front""
Use of idle time — "resourcefulness."
Kansas Men Prominent On WHB Staff
Several University of Kansas graduates, now members of the staff of station WHB in Kansas City, Mo. figured in the recent fifteenth anniversary celebration, which ended last Saturday after a week of events.
Among those University graduates working with WHB are Morris H. (Mouse) Straight, Ed Dennis, Sol Bobrov, Andy Anderson, Norvell Slater, John Walstedt, John Cameron Swayze, Dick Smith, Ralph Stevens, and Donald M. Davis, president of the WHB company.
An eight-page layout in the Kansas City Journal-Post of May 30, announcing the celebration, included an illustrated graph covering two pages and entitled "Time Flies." At every point where an important event in the station's history took place, a picture and paragraph were inserted. These frequently concerned the addition of a University man to the WHB staff.
The celebration ended with an anniversary party Saturday night in the Kansas City Municipal auditorium. Part of the program was dancing to Sol Bobrov's 40-piece municipal orchestra. Bobrov was graduated from the University in 1931.
