KU Debaters Rate High
University of Kansas debaters had the highest cumulative speaker rating of the 34 teams participating in the third annual West Point national invitational debate tournament recently at the U. S. Military academy.
The official summary of the tournament was received today by Chancellor Deane W. Malott. A congratulatory letter from Major General Bryant E. Moore, superintendent of the academy, was with the summary.
Edward Stolenwerck, College junior, tied for first among individual speakers. He and a debater from Williamette university in Oregon each received 1016 points of a possible 1200. William Conboy, College senior, was 10th with 989 points. Their cumulative total was 2,005, just two ahead of Notre Dame. As a team the two won five of six games, including wins and lost to Vermont in the first round of the finals. Despite their four-way tie for fifth in the tournament, the Jayhawkers were the only team to defeat the champions of the University of Alabama.

Glass Can Be Made From Kansas Sand
The Cheyenne sandstone of the Barber, Comanche, and Kiowa county area in Central Kansas has possibilities for glass making, preliminary studies made by the State Geological Survey have shown.
The sand deposits located southwest of Sun City in Barber county and south of Belvidere in Kiowa county were explored and tested by the State Geological Survey in a program sponsored by the Kansas Industrial Development commission. Laboratory tests show that sand contains low quality in its raw state to use in glass making but it can be treated by conventional methods to produce a high quality glass sand.
Mining, transportation, and climatic conditions in the area are good. Availability of natural gas supplies nearby at reasonable cost is favorable for utilization of these sand leposits for a Kansas glass industry.
College students are taking more interest in gaining a background in religion than ever before, Harold G. Barr, dean of the School of Religion, said recently. He added that this is true not only at the University but throughout the nation.
Students Taking Greater Interest In Religion Today, Dean Barr Says
"Since the war, there has been a more mature outlook among students.
This maturity has brought the reali-®
zation that perhaps religion is
zation that perhaps religion is worth-while after all," he added.
"On the practical side, courses have been opened to freshmen which weren't before the war. And don't underestimate the favorable comment of the 'student grapevine' and the drawing quality of the titles of our courses." Dr. Barr said. "Courses with names such as the Life and Teachings of Jesus' and the 'History of the World's Religions' are appearing on the transcripts of business and engineering seniors. No one seems surprised any more," Dr. Barr said.
While the addition of new courses will depend largely on the desires of students, some expansion of the school's curriculum is expected to be made in the next year or two. Dr. Barr said that the school's staff is unable to take on more work at present.
"However, we expect to add several new instructors shortly," he said, then we should be in a position to add new courses."
