Jakosky Seeks New Ore Deposits
(From the K.U. News Bureau)
In an attempt to locate new ore deposits in the tri-state lead and zinc area, the Kansas Engineering Experiment Station, headed by Dean of the School of Engineering and Architecture J. J. Jakosky, and the Kansas Geological Survey, directed by Dr. R. D. Moore, are conducting gravity meter work in that section of the state. The two groups are working in cooperation with the Mott-Smith corporation of Houston, Tex.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1941
OPM Requests Survey
The investigation is being carried out in cooperation with the tri-state zinc producers to determine the feasibility of various types of geophysical methods of location and delineation of lead and ore deposits. The investigation was requested by officials of OPM, with whom Dean Jakosky conferred in Washington a few weeks ago.
The importance of the work has been stressed by OPM officials, since zinc is a strategic material in defense work. Every effort is being made by government and producers to locate more underground reserves. All the work is being carried on in the laboratories of the University, with the exception of spectograph analysis. Kansas State College has cooperated to that end by lending its spectograph.
- More than $5000 worth of service is being contributed by the Mott-Smith corporation in the investigations, Dean Jakosky said. Arrangements for the work were completed by Jakosky with E. V. McCollum of the Texas company. McCollum is a graduate of the School of Engineering, and is co-author with Jakosky of "Exploration Physics," recently published.

Prices Present Serious Problem, Says Taggart
Dr. J. H. Taggart, professor of economics now on leave, discussed "Present Inflationary Trends" at a luncheon membership meeting of the Lawrence League of Women Voters Thursday. Dr. Taggart is now serving with the federal department of commerce as regional business consultant, with headquarters in Kansas City, Mo.
Dr. Taggart stated that the desire of the farmer, business man, and wage earner to have prices lowered for all services and commodities other than their own is a serious danger. He also pointed out that rises in price of food and farm products is much greater now than it was the first two years of the first World War.
Dr. Taggart concluded that consumer buying power must be decreased or the production of consumer goods must be increased in order to solve the problem rising from the rapid increase in national income.
Names Chief Threats
Visit Latins By Proxy Via KFKU
The five chief inflationary threats to national security and to an effective defense program, as stated by Dr. Taggart, were the loss of a stable market, weakening of morale through loss of savings and insurance, increased cost of defense, the spread of dissension under rising prices, and the deflation which will follow inflation.

Alumni Plan Reunions for Educators
Six alumni reunions are scheduled for Nov. 7 in connection with the State Teachers association meetings to be held that day, Fred Ellsworth, secretary of the Alumni association, has announced. Topeka, Wichita, Hays, Salina, Dodge City, and Pittsburg will act as host cities.
Topeka alumni will meet at the First Christian church, 622 Topeka avenue. Saul Kass is program chairman. George B. Smith, dean of the School of Education, and Justice Hugo Wedell, president of the Alumni association, will speak. The Senta Fe band will play.
Jack Spines, Wichita alumni president, is in charge of the Wichita reunion, to be held in Hotel Broadview. Spines is being assisted by L. W. Brooks, principal of East high and an instructor at the University during the summer session. Guests of honor will be Helen Rhoda Hoopes, professor of English, and E.

Cornhusker Powerhouse Prevails, 32-0
Memorial Stadium, Lincoln, Nebr., Oct. 11, 1941 (Special to the Kansan) Nebraska power and polish prevailed over the passing arm of "Rifling" Ralph Miller here this afternoon as the Cornhuskers steamrollered the University of Kansas Jayhawkers before a crowd of more than 28,000 by a score of 32 to 0.
Counting in all quarters but the third, Nebraska brewed its five touchdown advantage from a mixture of speed, deceptive power, and breaks.
Miller completed 13 of 20 passes for a total of 106 yards. Playing almost the entire game and participating in almost every play, he was severely shaken up in a play just before the third quarter ended, and collapsed after being helped from the field.
Knee Not Harmed
Although he did not return from the side lines, he was not injured seriously, and his bad knee was not harmed.
Dale Bradley, Cornhusker climax runner, opened the scoring gates for Nebraska early in the first quarter when he snagged a deflected Miller-to-Niblo pass on his own 25 yard line and zig-zagged 63 yards back up the field to the Kansas 17 yard line. Six plays later, Vike Francis crashed

Defense Courses Help Men Get Better Jobs
Former taxicab drivers, grocery clerks, and men from other lower paid jobs now are working in National Defense Industries for salaries three and four times the wages they once received.
Many of these men who have made advances within the past nine months were enrolled in one of the 128 classes offered in National Defense Engineering Training through the University, and since completion of the courses, have written letters of appreciation to the University. The classes were offered to nearly 4,000 men in 14 different cities in Kansas and Western Missouri and were conducted through the Extension Division in conara-
tion with the School of Engineering and Architecture.
Trained From the Field
Approximately 97 per cent of the men who completed the course have either obtained jobs, if they were unemployed previously, or have received salary increases or promotions or both, Guy V. Keeler, director of the National Defense Training Course Program at the University, estimated.
No academic credit is allowed, as the training is given, not by University professors, but by qualified men from industry, who are selected on the basis of their broad exper-
