Three Students' Cartoons Shown
Three Fine Arts students have contributed examples of their comic strips to the current display of the Albert T. Reid Cartoon Collection now on display in the Historical Center of the School of Journalism.
The students are Richard Lumpkin, who calls his strip "Ted Hunter"; Kenneth Burdette, who has started an historical strip, "The Man from Kansas," and Vernon Rickman, who has not chosen a title for his strip.
The highlight of the display is the original work of two men honored recently for their work in 1954, D. R. Fitzpatrick, who won the 1954 Pulitzer prize, and Willard Mullin, who has been awarded the "Reuben," an annual award given by the National Cartoonist society to the "Cartoonist of the Year."
A Lawrence resident; Henry "Hank" Maloy, recently presented a drawing to the Reid collection that traces the evolution of the famous Jawhawk.
Other parts of the Reid collection include originals of "Judge Parker" by Paul Nichols and Dan Heilman, "Rex Morgan" by Nicholas P. Dallis, "Vignettes of Life" Harry Weinert, "Sad Sack," by George Baker; "The Little People" and "Huckleberry Hollow" by Walt Scott, "Roy Rogers" by Al McKimson, Mickey Mouse" by Walt Disney, and "The Looney's—What a Family" by Colin Allen.
The Reid collection is on display in 104 Journalism and is open to the public from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily and until noon Saturday.
Kansas C. of C. Adopts 2 Year Work Program
The State Chamber of Commerce has adopted a program of work for the two year period ending April 20. 1957.
It is based on several recent polls of businessmen and civic leaders throughout the state. The most recent poll brought over 400 specific written suggestions. The program is entitled a "Pattern for Progress in Kansas."
The Department of Agriculture says about 700 different insect pests attack crops in the United States.
Expedition Will Race Water in South Dakota
A dozen archaeologists led by Dr. Carlyle S. Smith, associate professor of Sociology, begin a seven-week race against time next month to learn as much as they can about the archaeological history of South Dakota before waters of the Fort Randall dam inundate one of the richest archaeological prospecting areas in the Great Plains.
Since 1953, waters of the 150-mile-long reservoir have covered nearly 80 percent of the sites. Nevertheless, the site K.U.'s parties have dug has yielded more than 64 thousand specimens to archaeologists working under cooperative agreements with the National Park service and the Smithsonian institution since the excavation programs were begun in 1950.
This will be the fifth and last summer for KU field parties to work in the area, as by next year the sites will water and therefore inaccessible.
The KU students going out on the expedition are Alfred Johnson, technical assistant, college sophomore; Eddie Harris, cook, education senior; David Horn, college sophomore; Ted Steegman, college freshman; Charles Eyman, college junior, and Clement Blakeslee, college junior.

earth villages near Fort Thompson, S. Dak., on Crow Creek reservation, presently occupied by Sioux Indians. Other field parties also will be working on similar projects.
One of the questions the archaeologists hope the South Dakota search will answer is "What happened in Kansas during the extended drought of the sixteenth century?"
These sites were occupied over 200 years ago by earlier peoples in the area, probably the Arikara who moved up the Missouri river and now are in North Dakota, Dr. Smith said. Archaeologists hope that results of their digging will clarify the nature of the last occupation of the Talking Crow site by earth lodge-building Indians.
This summer's digging may provide clues to the solution of the puzzle and at the same time show in what way the culture shift took place.
The Indians living in Kansas then, who possibly included ancestors of the Pawnee tribe, were forced out because of drought. There is evidence that they settled in South Dakota, returning to Kansas later, but in the meantime their culture changed enough to cloud the picture beyond positive identification.
In addition to Dr. Smith and the KU students,Dr. Smith's field assistant will be Roger Grange of the Chicago Natural History museum. Two students from Barnard college of Columbia university,a foreign exchange student from the University of Rochester,and a 1955 graduate of Wyandotte high school,Kansas City who will attend KU this fall, complete the party.
