Winkler Tests Carbon For Gas Mask Use
Tests for the gas absorption properties of activated carbon to determine its possible use for gas masks are being made by DeLoss Winkler, University graduate student.
Winkler, working under a state industrial fellowship, has developed a new process of making activated carbon. The gas absorbing properties of activated carbon is greater than ordinary carbon. ___
No information has been given as to how the new process differs from the old, but Winkler said that his process produced carbon which he believes is superior to activated carbon made by the old process. It is probable that activated carbon can be produced at a lower cost by the use of his process.
Activated carbon is now being used to absorb odors from water in water purification plants and in sugar refining to whiten sugar by absorbing color from the unrefined sugar.
The experiments are state sponsored to develop industries in Kansas.
Winkler graduated from the University in 1936 and is now working for his doctor's degree.

Continued from page six reason that some of these patterns were discontinued is that styles in dishes changed. The modern table does not use compotes, spoon-holders, cake-stands, or covered butter dishes. These things have been abandoned for those which better serve the purpose. They have not been lost, however, for almost every museum has specimens which will be honored for hundreds of years.

BUILDING CHANCES
(continued from page one) few weeks ago endorsed the building project for the University. The group further stressed it as being of vital importance in the future of the industrial status of the state.
38 I N I
The new building, to cost approximately $396,500, would centralize the departments of the University most active in development of the mineral resources of the state—the State Geological Survey, State Petroleum Experiment Station, and the departments of geology, chemical engineering, and petroleum engineering.
Space and equipment are at present not available for effective work in industries vital to the state.
It has been pointed out that not only would many industries be given room and facilities for research, but present departments that are now operating under handicaps of overcrowding and separation in sheds and in basements of three different buildings, would be grouped for more efficient work.
