Not Gold Nor Furs, But Biting Flies Draws This Student To Icy Alaska
Not gold nor furs, but biting flies will draw Edward Marks, graduate student. to Alaska after March 15.
Marks, who expects to complete work for a master's degree in entomology, will go to Alaska to study the life history and the habitat of the territory's biting flies. Five other entomologists will go with him. They
the United States department of agriculture.
They want to learn how and where the biting flies live, Marks said. Later control groups will use the information to discover methods of killing off the flies.
Marks and an entomologist from the University of Illinois will be stationed near Fairbanks. They will get information on flies in swamp and river areas, and will recommend ways of ridding Alaska of the insects.
The 23-year-old veteran will return to the states in September to teach biology at the National College for Christian Workers in Kansas City, Mo.
Fire and snow queens from Minnesota, the Dakotas and Wisconsin annually take part of the St. Paul winter carnival.

Hand Movements Tell This Story
Illustrating the importance of hand movements in speaking, E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, recently told a class, "I saw a girl walking down the street." His hands made the well-known, hour-glass figure. Then in a flatter tone, he added, "I saw another girl walking down the street." His hands dropped in straight lines. The class was impressed by the professor's choice of words.
Freak Catfish Live In Texas Wells
La Jolla, Calif. - (UP) - An eyeless albina catfish living 1,250 feet underground has been discovered in Texas' deep artesian wells.
Two of the odd fish were pumped from wells near San Antonio and found to be "clearly members of the North American catfish family." They were completely devoid of external eyes and skin pigment, and measured about $3 \frac{1}{2}$ inches in length.
Dr. Carl L. Hubbs of the University of California, who studied the strange fish, said their ancestors must have become trapped in the underground water system hundreds of years ago. Through the centuries they lost their eyes and skin pigment.
'Artists With Ideas Always Needed'
Art students can readily get jobs after graduation, Scott Lilley, freelance artists, told the University Art club Tuesday. There are always openings in the fields of window decoration and fashion illustration for people with new ideas, he said
"A fashion artist must learn the basic ideas of structure and elaborate on them as each new fashion trend makes its appearance," he explained. "The best way to do this is to practice constantly and get everything possible from instruction."

12,000 'John Smiths' Give These Girls Of The VA Their Biggest Headache
Washington—(UP)—Estyleene Rued is one of scores of government girls suffering from indexitis, an affliction that keeps her head buzzing with names—about 25 million of them.
That's the number of names in the block-long master index file of the Veterans administration where clerks try to identify the millions of veterans who correspond monthly with
the V. A. central office
The name, "John Smith," gives them their biggest headache.
If "John Smith" forgets to include his address or maybe gives the wrong one, she starts fingering "400 John Smiths" in the V. A. filgs.
She soon reduces it to 800, the number of "John Smiths" who have no middle name or initial.
Eustleye's next move is to see if the postmark is legible. If it is from Frank, Ky., and there's one "John Smith" her problem is solved.
Maybe the letter was mailed from a city substation. Maybe "John Smith's" residence can be pinned down to some portion of the city. Or maybe he can be located through one of the other Smiths in town.
If frequently takes several days to
to break down the right "John
Smith".
Estyleane and her fellow-workers also have to worry about the 149.,000 Johnsonns, 121.000 Browns and 109,000 Joneses in the V.A. files. She also has 102 Eisenhowers on file, by the way.
