Enrollment in the R.O.T.C. does not exempt men from the conscription registration, and all men who failed to registered because of this should do so immediately, Col. Karl F. Baldwin announced today.
All members of the R.O.T.C. between the ages of 21 and 36 should comply immediately with section 3 (a) of public action

Section 5 (a) exempts members who are duly enrolled in the advanced course from such registration. However, it is best that all members of the advanced course also register if they have not done so to date, in order to avoid questions which may arise later regarding their enrollment in the R.O.T.C. and registration.
All members of the basic course especially are cautioned to comply with the law and register immediately. Registration headquarters of the local draft board are in the City Hall at Eleventh and Massachusetts streets.
Men who are of ages specified above and who fail to register within the next 48 hours are liable to severe penalty and imprisonment, Baldwin said.

Frye at Work on Observation Wells
John C. Frye, geologist with the Federal and Kansas Geological Surveys, is engaged in establishing a chain of observation wells in Clark, Comanche, Barber, and Kiowa counties from which water-level records will be obtained, according to the survey office here.
The water level in these wells will be measured at regular intervals, beginning at the time the wells are established for observation purposes. The data thus obtained will be important in determining the rate at which the ground-water supply in these counties is being replenished and in determining the amount that can be used by irrigation projects and municipalities over a period of years without ruining the underground supply.
