60,000 Pounds of Pressure---
New Testing Machine
Forms Valuable Addition
The valuable new addition to the working equipment of the materials testing laboratory of the School of Engineering which A. M. Ockerblad, associate professor of applied mechanics is shown inspecting, is the recently-installed universal testing machine.
The machine, used for testing the tensile strength of building materials, can exert a pressure load measured by a beam with of 60,000 pounds.
It is more modern than the machines previously used for testing. The old machines were operated on a mechanical basis, in which the power was transmitted to the material being tested by an arrangement of gears and screws, and the
load measured by a beam with a movable poise, in much the same fashion as the scales used by corner groceries.
The new machine transfers the power by hydraulic methods. Oil is pumped into a cylinder, in which a (continued on page 167)
Young GOP's To Choose Delegates to State Meet
Hill Young Republicans will meet at 7:30 tomorrow night in the Men's Lounge of the Memorial Union building to choose their delegates to a state convention to be held in Topeka this Saturday, Bill Douce president of the club announced today.
The convention will include the collegiate division of the state Young Republican clubs. It will be just a one day meeting.
Douce said that the meeting tomorrow night would not only choose the Kansas delegates to the convention but would also lay plans for the program Saturday and determine the part that the delegates would take in the convention proceedings.
Will Germany Win? Angell To Give His Views In Convocation Thurs.
Will Germany win? Why has the new order of Germany gained adherents in almost every country of the world? Has it gained followers in Britain as we now know it has in France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Norway, Italy, and Japan?
Nevertheless a fairly unbiased report can be expected in Thursday's lecture as Sir Norman was at one time highly criticized and accused of "pro-Germanism." He has been lecturing in the United States since July and previous to that time in various European countries. He has talked at many of the leading Eastern universities among them Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Johns Hopkins, and Wellesley and also at Stanford.
These and similar questions will be discussed by Sir Norman Angell in his address "How a Nazi Victory Would Affect America" at a convoction at 10 o'clock Thursday morning in Hoch Auditorium.
The noted British journalist and lecturer has written several books dealing with this situation, the most famous of which is probably "The Great Illusion." His latest book "America's Dilemma; Alone or Allied" presents a vivid argument for America's intervention in the war on the British side.

Pachacamacs Pick Whetstone To Replace Douce
Gene Whetstone, special student, was unanimously elected new president of the Society of Pachacamac at a meeting of the inner circle of that organization Sunday evening.
Whetstone succeeded Bill Douce, engineering senior, who was forced to resign the office on doctor's orders. Douce had been in ill health during the fall semester.
Questionnaires sent to members of the Independent Student's Association in an effort to determine independents' wishes in regard to their social program are being returned to the central council in good numbers.
Fred Robertson, I.S.A. president, said today that from indications, the independents want a program of informal parties, and that they even want their spring party to be a semi-formal affair.
In accepting the presidency Whetstone said, "I will take the responsibilities of the office only with the assurance that every member of Pachacamac will work together and cooperate in the spring campaign that is now approaching.
All women who wish to run for a position on the W.S.G.A. at the spring election March 13 must make application to the nomination committee between the hours of 3:30 to 5 and 7 to 8 p.m. tomorrow in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building.
"I feel that Pachacamac has an important role to play in student government in the next few weeks in cooperating to bring government out of the lethargy into which it has fallen on the campus in recent years."
This announcement was made at the last meeting of the women's council by Jean Robertson, secretary of the W.S.G.A. Applications for candidacy will be considered by the committee and the final slate will be announced later.
ISA Members Vote For Social Program
Women Must File W.S.G.A. Candidacy Petitions Tomorrow
The questionnaires have also indicated that independent students will support an independent paper.
The central council is having its regular weekly meeting tonight, and may take definite action in forming a social program.

Dan Howe
These two sophomores, guard Marvin Sollenberger and forward John Buescher, are certain to see plenty of action tonight when Kansas State's Purple Wildcats invade Hoch auditorium to renew their ancient court rivalry with Kansas Jayhawkers. Numbered among the heavy guns of the Wildcat attack will be sophomore Danny Howe, a rebounder par excellence, who will open at forward for Jack Gardner.
Begin on Blocks For New Lab
Production of the stabilized earth blocks for the Engineering Research laboratory is expected to begin sometime this week. The blocks will be made by N.Y.A. students working in the basement of Hoch auditorium. Tests are still being conducted on the paraffin-treated forms used for shaping the blocks. A shed is being built at the side of the auditorium for storing the earth used in construcing the blocks. This earth is being shipped in from a glacial deposit about three miles east of town.
Frazier to Exhibit Work At New Mexico Art Museum
Frazier plans to send 10 sculptures and photographs of other works. The museum will exhibit the sculptures during August.
"Poco" Frazier, instructor of architecture and design, has received an invitation from the New Mexico State Art museum at Santa Fe to exhibit his work at the museum.

Jack Gardner's Kansas State Wildcats, a brawny deadnaught of basketball destruction, will move into Hoch auditorium at 7:30 tonight determined to haul down a league-leading Kansas Jayhawker in the two teams' final meeting of the conference season. The contest is expected to be witnessed by a near capacity throng.
Only the Beginning for Kansas
With their last thin mathematical chance for the loop title gone and still smarting under a 46 to 41 defeat at the hands of the Jayhawkers in Manhattan last month, the Aggies are expected to go all out in an effort to hang a damaging defeat on the Kansans.
The Jayhawkers at present hold a two game lead over second place Nebraska with a record of five victories in six loop starts, but must win three of the remaining four contests for a clear claim on the conference crown.

Hospital Examines Student Groups
Three groups of students, of which two are in the national defense program at the University, are taking physical examinations at Watkins Memorial hospital, Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, director of the health service, said today.
Approximately 30 men of the N.Y.A., who are working on the new engineering laboratory, have reported for examinations.
In the out-of-school youth training prgram, which consists of welding and shopwork, 38 are being examined. The third group being examined consists of the engineering drawing and shopwork classes.
