Farming Takes Time 'Let Us Cut'
A survey of the University shows that students are more willing to co-operate with the farmers of the vicinity to alleviate the farm labor shortage but because of class work do not have time to work in the fields.
The following opinions were expressed:
Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary—"I believe that the students are more than willing to help the local farmers but I don't believe they will be able to drop their school work, help the farmer, and still turn in the excellent work they've been doing.
"The University has a speed-up program in effect and the students are being pushed to finish their work in the shortest possible time. The only possible time that the students could work would be over the week, end but usually the weekend is reserved to catch up in class work or some other activity in which the student is interested."
Sewell Suggests Cuts
Glen Sewell, business junior—"I think it would be a noble and patriotic idea for the University to allow class cuts for the students helping the farmers."
Edward Tillman, engineering sophomore—"I wouldn't have time except on Friday afternoon, but perhaps other students who are not taking such a full schedule could help."
Daughter Interests Wilson
George Harvey, college freshman — "I'm not a farmer but I would be willing to work on the farm if an arrangement could be made so that I would not miss school. I rather doubt that the University can send many students back to the farm because of the heavy program."
Tom Wilson, college Freshman— "Help the farmer? If he has a good-looking daughter,' lead me to 'im."
Leland Bohl, engineering freshman
I don't know whether I would be
very efficient sowing tame oats or
not."
Florence Brown, college senior "If arrangements can be made with the University I think the idea of helping the farmer is a good one."

Earthquakes Often Reports California U.
Berkley, Calif., (ACP) - Earthquakes are an every-day affair to Perry Byerly, professor of seismology on the Berkeley campus of the University of California.
Records of the nine seismographs on the campus and others in the six out-stations show a yearly average of 650 shocks from all over the world.
The University seismographic stations on the Berkeley campus and on Mt. Hamilton are the oldest in the Western hemisphere and among the oldest in the world. They were set up in 1887 at the instigation of an astronomer, E. S. Holden, former president of the university and director of Lick observatory, and a geologist, Prof. Joseph LeConte.
The Berkeley station is also the headquarters of the Seismological Society of America, and the society's Bulletin is published there under editorship of George D. Louderback, professor of geology at the university.

Paul Gilles spoke upon the "Social Relations of Science," Jack Kendall presented his work upon "The Platonic Socrates," and Arthur Nelson's paper was entitled "Physics, History, and the Future."
Guests were R. K. Koopman, professor of electrical engineering and a member of the scholarship committee, N. W. Storer, associate professor of physics and astronomy, Prof. E. H. Hollands of the philosophy department, and Mrs. Flora Boyton, secretary to the Summerfield committee.
Scientist Discovers Compound That Kills Smells By Burning
New York, (ACP)—Discovery of a chemical compound that will destroy any offensive odor known to man or beast is claimed by three industrial chemists.
Designated as OD-30, the compound was discovered by Dr. Walter H. Eddy, Columbia university; Dr. James H. Dalbey of Chicago; and Dr. Lloyd Arnold, University of Illinois.
OD-30, its discoverers said, has been successful in killing the odors of stench bombs, skunks, cooking cabbage, fish and butcher shops, dog pounds and public rest rooms.
Dr. Eddy explained the compound literally kills the smells by burning them with oxygen as they float in the air.
