KU Wants Quail Wings To Insure Good Hunts
Hunters, the University wants a small share of your bag during the bobwhite quail season opening Nov. 21.
The State Biological Survey would like each Kansas hunter to send a wing from each quail shot. These are needed so an important study of Kansas bobwhites can be continued.
From the quail wings zoologists can determine within close limits when each bird was hatched. This gives vital long-range information, such as the ratio of old birds to young birds and the distribution of quail in Kansas.
All this adds to the knowledge that can be applied to insuring good hunting in the years to come.
The KU study was begun in 1951 when 1,600 wings were collected. The number jumped to 2,900 wings during the 10-day season last year, and this year's 13-day season should bring even more.
Dr. Rollin H. Baker, assistant professor of zoology, gives these directions for hunters who want to help.
Appliance Firm Sets Interviews
Because of an extensive expansion program, the Coleman company of Wichita, manufacturers of heating appliances, is interested in placing from six to twelve mechanical and electrical engineering graduates in their two-year management training program.
Seniors selected for this program will receive $450 during their senior year.
In return they will make at least two trips to Wichita and complete a library or laboratory research problem assigned by the company. Following the two-year training program, they will be placed in positions leading to management work.
Bently Barnabas of Associated Personnel Technicians, Wichita, personnel consultants to the company. will be on the campus November 19 and 20 for interviews and tests
The tests and interviews will be given in the Oread room of the Student Union Thursday, Nov. 19, and in the Pine room Friday, Nov. 20. Interviews will be held in the afternoons, with tests starting at 6:30 p.m.

Benson Starts On Big Swing In Drought Area
Columbus, O. —(U.P.)—Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson set out today on a five-day tour of the billion-dollar drought country in the Middle West and the Great Plains.
Benson, under heavy attack for his controversial farm policies, hopes to gather facts and sift opinion for the new agriculture program he is drafting for submission to Congress next year.
First stop on the tour itinerary was Lubbock, Tex., in the heart of the cotton and cow country. The 2,000-mile tour also will cover Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Missouri, Arizona, Utah and Wyoming.
Reports indicated recent rains have lifted hopes of drought-stricken southwest farmers. Winter wheat prospects in Texas reportedly range from "excellent" to "the best in years."
But experts conceded a lot more rain will be needed to erase the dusty brand of the three-year drought. In Misouri, a $6,500,000 state emergency drought program is just getting under way.
Accompanying Benson and his aides were Harry R. Varney, chief of the Senate agriculture committee staff; Rep. Page Belcher (R-Okla.) a member of the House agriculture committee, Homer Gruenther, special White House assistant, and over a dozen newsmen and photographers.
Benson invited Sen. George D. Aiken, (R-Vt.) and Rep. Clifford R. Hope (R-Kans.), chairmen of the Senate and House agriculture committees, to go with him. Both had other commitments.
Benson will leave Lubbock tomor-
row morning for Santa Fe and Albu-
querque, N.M., and Prescott, Ariz.
Saturday he will leave Prescott for
Elko, Nev., Rock Springs, Wyo., and
Salt Lake City, Utah, remaining in
Salt Lake all day Sunday.
On Monday Benson will fly to drought areas around Shelby county, Mo., and head back to Washington Monday night from St. Louis.
Baltimore Hires Dykes as Pilot
Baltimore, Md. — (O,P)—The Baltimore Orioles yesterday fired Marty Marion as field manager and replaced him with Jimmy Dykes, ousted last week in favor of Eddie Joost as manager of the Athleties.
Marion was due to manage the Orioles for one year under the terms of the old contract with the St. Louis Brown's, but Orioles Gen- lary Art Ehlers said the lanky former shortstop would not be retained.
Flying Saucer Study Set
Ottawa, Ont.,—(U.P).The Canadian Transport department has established "the world's first flying saucer sighting station" and officials predicted today it would put an end to the whirling disc controversy.
The new station was expected to be in round-the-clock operation within a few weeks at Shirley Bay, 10 miles west of here.
Scientists who will operate the station will try to find out if there actually are flying saucers.
Equipment at the station includes an ionospheric reactor to determine the height, pattern and conduct of the ionized layer of gases in the atmosphere and changes in the intensity of gamma and X-rays.
There are also electronic devices to measure known and unknown radio noises and disturbances, a gamma ray detector and a new device known as a gravimeter to measure gravitational pull.
Alarm bells hooked to the station have been placed in the nearby ionosphere station where telecommunications experts are on 24-hour duty.
A report was expected from the observers at the station within the next year.
Government scientists have refused
to say there are such things as flying saucers, but they took the stand there was certain evidence that needed explaining. It was made known the Defense Research board was studying and investigating saucer reports.
Transport department personnel such as ship captains or weather observers have standing orders to report "objects."
