Guest Speakers Meet Students Talk Culture
"Blueprinting Tomorrow" a cultural conference sponsored by Associated Women Students. ended Thursday with personal conferences between guest speakers and students.
Dr. Geraldine Hammond, Wichita, deplored the fact that "so many students in literature courses claim they once liked literature but had it spoiled by prolonged study."
"Arguments about the Christian faith are fronts, excuses for not doing what we should," she said.
Mr. Porter Brown, Salina, said that a Christian can have no quarrel between science and religion. She told students that science is religion because science is the revelation of natural law.
Mrs. John Guice, Kansas City, Mo., said "A knowledge of art is of value in decorating and arranging homes. Art helps you enjoy yourself and your surroundings."
Miss Ethel Mitchell talked about community recreation programs. She said that a new field in community recreation has opened. Federal and state hospitals are hiring staffs of professional recreational workers.
Group conferences with speakers were arranged for every woman interested.

Rain Floods Wichita Area
'International Club Needs Americans'
"One American student for every foreign student is the goal of the International club," Marilyn Rust, president, explained recently.
"The International club is not an exclusive organization of foreign students. It was organized with the idea that American students could make foreign students feel at home at the University. At meetings foreign students usually have to make the American students welcome" she continued.
Witchita, Feb. 27—(UP)—A rain of cloudburst proportions early today flooded thousands of acres of land in northwest Sedgwick county. Reports from Mount Hope and Haven indicated they were isolated by surface water.
Train service through the area was interrupted. More than two feet of water stood on the Missouri Pacific tracks near Haven. A passenger train from Geneseo to Wichita was stranded in the flood, and efforts to remove passengers by bus failed.
Persons living in the area of the torrential rain estimated between 8 and 12 inches of rain had fallen. The storm began Thursday night and continued until after midnight.
Warnings of probable overflow were issued for a 30-mile stretch of the Big Blue river in north-central Kansas, from the Nebraska line down to Blue Rapids. At Barnston, Neb., the stream was at the 17-foot level—just one foot below flood stage—and was reported rising.
