Ask Entries For Carruth Contest
Encouraging university students to enter the Carruth poetry contest, Miss Alice Winston, associate professor of English, today pointed out that the writing experience gained through participation would prove extremely valuable.
Prizes to be offered in the annual Carruth Memorial poetry contest will be $60, $40, and $20, with an additional award of a volume of poetry which will be presented to students receiving honorable mention.
All resident students regularly enrolled in the University are eligible for entry in the contest, and poems of any length or classification may be submitted. Only one poem per contestant, however, will be admitted, and no poem previously published will receive credit.
Three typewritten copies of each poem, signed by an assumed name, are to be handed in to the Chancellor's office before noon of April 2, 1943, accompanied by a sealed envelope containing the real name and address of the author. On the outside of the envelope must be written the assumed name of the contestant and the exact title of the poem.
The committee which will judge the manuscripts has not yet been chosen, but will consist of one member of the English department of the University, one alumnus of the University, and one man of letters not connected with the University.
The announcement of awards will be made about May 7,1943,and names of the winners will also appear on the commencement program.
Reorganize Well-Cuttings To Assist Oil Companies
Dr. M. L. Thompson and Dr. John Frye of the state geological survey returned recently from Wichita, where they visited the survey's branch office and made arrangements for the reorganization of well cuttings in the Wichita office in order to be of assistance to oil companies during the war.
They arranged to consolidate part of the private collection of well-cuttings owned by Walter Ver Wiebe, chairman of the department of geology at Wichita University, with those in the repository of the Wichita branch office. "The importance of the well-cutting library is much greater during this period than ever before, due to the fact that the intensified search for oil necessitates the re-study of older cuttings by oil company and consulting geologists." Dr. Frye stated.
