Regents' Vacancy Fight Goes Into Second Round
Topeka (U.P.)—The fight for the ninth seat on the Kansas board of regents goes into its second round this week.
The body holds its monthly meeting Friday and with the dispute a month old now both Jerry Reillcoll, Russell attorney, and Art W. Hershberger, Wichita lawyer, claim a legal right to the position
Driscoll, who made a fiery speech before the regents in April to support his claim, maintained he would attend the meeting—and he promised he would vote as a regular member of the board.
Hershberger was more reticent. He hasn't made an official announcement of his intentions, but he was expected to be on hand also.
"I don't know what will happen," Hubert Brighton, board secretary told a reporter. He said neither Driscoll nor Hershberger has sent in a voucher for expense payments for the meeting last month.
If both men apply for reimbursement for their travel to Topeka for the April affair, the secretary said he didn't know what the outcome would be.
Hershberger and Driscoll both said that the dispute could be settled by a Supreme court decision, but both declined at the time to instigate the action.
"The law is on my side," the red-haired,鸡chomping Driscoll said. "If Hershberger thinks he has a claim to the seat it is up to him to start legal action."
The mixup began in the closing days of the 1951 Kansas legislature in March. Gov. Edward F. Arn recommended to the state Senate that Herb J. Barr, Leoti rancher, be appointed to the position which had been held by Driscoll.
In a mass list of appointment recommendations, the governor made no mention of Driscoll, who had been named to the board of regents by then Gov. Frank Carlson in 1949.
When the Senate balked at confirming Barr's appointment, Gov. Arn contended that a vacancy existed. After the legislature went home he named Hershberger to the post. Driscoll's claim to the seat was based on his contention he is entitled to the office until he is expelled or replaced.
The dispute flared into the open at the April meeting. Both claimants appeared. A temporary truce was arranged, however, when Hersberger and Driscoll agreed to just no votes on issues at the meeting.
Asked for an opinion by the regents, Attorney-General Harold R. Patzer said the Senate's failure to affirm Driscoll created a vacancy and the governor was within legal rights to name Hershberger. But the regents tabled a motion to accept the attorney general's opinion.
Map Is Drawn For Mammal Exhibit
A wall-sized life zone map of North America has been prepared or the exhibit of mammals on the main floor of the Museum of Natural history.
S. T. Dickinson, museum artist has painted the zones in contrasting colors. Eight paintings of characteristic animals and plants also designate the zones.
The zones are those outlined by C. H. Merriam and other naturalists on the theory that the geographic plants are governed by temperature.
Kansas lies in the Upper Austral zone. Western Kansas is designated as being in the arid province and eastern Kansas in the humid province.

Fossil Sea Shells From Kansas Hillside Have A Story To Tell About The State
Ever collected fossil sea shells from a Kansas hillside or even from your back yard? Have you ever wondered how they got there and what their meaning is?
Fossils are important keys to the geologic past. The presence of fossil seas shells in Kansas indicates that at some time—hundreds of thousands of years ago—Kansas had an ocean-seashore environment.
Geologists of the State Geological Survey here, who are familiar with fossil remains in Kansas, estimate that the oldest Kansas rocks containing fossils date back approximately 500 million years.
Like sea shells of the seashore throughout the world today, these fossil shells remains were once the homes of sea animals. Long after the animals died many of their homes were covered with sand or other materials and were thus preserved. Later earth movements raised the land containing these fossil-bearing rocks, so that today many rocks in
Some rocks are composed almost entirely of marine fossils. Kansas chalk beds, for example, are largely composed of broken or whole tiny shells of one-celled sea animals. Many other limestones are aggregates of fusulines, the wheat-grain-like fossils.
Kansas are composed of sea animal remains.
The study of microfossils—fossils so tiny they must be studied by use of a microscope—is one of the most important techniques used in corrating thin beds of limestone encountered in drilling for oil. Identifying these fossils so they can be more readily used by geologists and oil operators, is part of the work of the State Geological Survey.
