Oil Engineers Would Gain From New Building
By MARYNELL WYATT
One of the departments which would be directly affected by the proposed Mineral Industry building is the department of petroleum engineering, which is closely connected with the development and production $ ^{ \textcircled{8}} $
phases of the oil industry in Kansas.
The department at present is tucked back in one of the overcrowded corners of old Haworth hall. Students are compelled, by these overcrowded conditions, to do their laboratory work in relays. There are certain days for juniors and other days for seniors. Because of this handicap no experiments may be set up which require more than one day to complete. This limits the kind and extent of work that the department is able to do.
There is no office space for some of the instructors, and it is necessary to use the natural gas laboratory for the analytical and drafting room.
The proposed new building would provide adequate laboratory space for all students so that they would not be forced to work in relays. They could do more extensive experiments. There would be a drafting room where design of equipment and study of modifications of layout material could be studied; in Haworth there is no room for research workers and there is only a small place in the basement of Hoch.
Four avenues of research on which the department is now working, as outlined by Prof. E. A. Stephenson, are improved methods for cable test drills; proper spacing programs in Kansas limestone reservoirs; the proper producing rates for Kansas water drive pools; and the correct methods of casing oil wells and salt water disposal wells so that no damage to fresh water strata can result.
With adequate space and equipment, the department of petroleum engineering would be able to carry out and expand its research to aid in the development of the oil industry in Kansas and give students more adequate instruction both in engineering and in methods of research.
Littooy and West Uphold Elephant
Political policies will pop and private opinions will prevail when the proverbial donkey faces the elephant tomorrow night at 7:30 in Fraser theater.
A University of Missouri team, composed of Celia Rothburg and Melvin Brown, will represent the side with the stubborn tendencies and Kansas' Fred Littooy and Addison West will side in for the Republicans on the question, resolved: "A young person casting a first ballot should vote the Republican ticket."
This will be Fred Littooy's first University debate, but his heated enthusiasm for Willkie plus the fact that Addison West is the nephew of Will West, former Republican candidate for governor, should make him out-and-out political debate a hot one.
Bob. McKay and Fred Littioy will meet two Missouri debaters on the same question tonight at Haskell Institute as a warm-up for tomorrow night's battle.
Engineers Dine On St. Louis Trip
Seniors in electrical engineering and their instructor, Prof. Richard Koopman, while on an inspection trip in St. Louis to observe application of the material which they study in class, were guests of the W. N. Matthews Corporation Wednesday at a luncheon in St. Louis.
T. O. Tarrant, an alumnus of the University, and a partner in the Schlesinger Tarrant Brokerage Co., gave a short talk to the guests, comparing the opportunities of the graduate of today with those of his time. Mr. Tarrant was graduated in 1918.
After the luncheon, the members of the class were conducted through the factory where they were able to observe the manufacture of fuses and other protective devices.
A guest at the luncheon was M. C. Cooley, who is vice-president of the Matthews Corporation.
