Weather Plays Tricks;
Art Students to Topeka
The weather played a loke on the art department in the School of Fine Arts yesterday, directing their walk-out to Topaata instead of the State Lake. The art department walk-out is an annual spring event. No one will be held in the departments of design and drawing and painting on this day.
The students had planned on going to State Lake, but because of the rain went to Topeka, where there is a new enclosed shelter house in town. Here they ate their pine lunch, and afterward went ruler skating.
May Choose Two For Expedition
The publication of a definite scientific report on the archaeology and ecology of several thousand square miles of remote canyon, moan and valley, in Arizona and southern Utah is the main objective of the expedition.
The expedition needs men who are keenly interested in exploring, studying and working in the Navajo country. Applicants are being chosen on the basis of special training, aptitude for pioneering experience, and other qualifications which fit them for assisting in the work of the expedition.
The expedition will start about the middle of June. The two men from the university will be chosen by Doctor Winning some time during the next two weeks. Meanwhile he will receive applications sent to him at the Explorers Club, New York City. Applications may also be sent to Prof. Foy-Cooper Cole, University of Chicago, or to Prof. Ralph L. Beals, University of California, Los Angeles.
The remainder of the party will be made up of men from Princeton, Harvard, Chicago, Stanford, the University of Illinois, several of the other large universities.

Threaten Oil Shutdown
Wichita, May 12—(UP)—E. B. Shaver, president of the Kansas Independent Oil and Gas Association, indicated tonight that a general shutdown of Kansas oil wells might be ordered.
Stuwar said that he was sounding out producers in Sumner and Cowley counties on a proposal to reduce the price of wheat, the threat of general price reduction.
The action by Shawyer followed announcement this week by the Knotex Refining company at Arkansas City of a 25-cent reduction in crude prices, Earlier, the Shell Petroleum corporation announced that it would close its refinery in Arkansas City, "in furtherance of our policy of gradual withdrawal from marketing activities in Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and the Dakotas."
Shawner reported that most of the operators were in favor of a temporary alutdown but were reluctant to do so, risk of losing a permanent market.

Relief Bill-by ROGER F. WURTZ '41, Wisconsin Octopus
Continued from page 1
(Prog., Wis.), permits the use of WPA funds for production of fertilizer.
Rep. Clinton Woodrum (Dem. Va.), in charge of the bill, made no serious objections to either proposal but he fought vigorously against an amendment by Rep. John Rankin (Dem.) to mark the $100,000,000 of Reconstruction Finance corporation funds for the Rural Electrification Administration. Woodrum proposed $20,000,000, but Rankin's amendment won 126 to 119, and later was approved 259 to 139 on a roll call.
It was the first defeat for the Democratic leaders, who best down coalition efforts to force the WPA to pay uniform minimum wages of $23 to $40 monthly to relief workers in the South, as well as in the North, and to raise taxes on the state which have reached the constitutional limit of their indebtedness.
Two attempts to write in severe restrictions against use of WPA funds for political purposes also were rejected.
"ALBERT JUST WON'T BE WITHOUT HIS FORD-V8 "
Tulsa, Okla.—(UP)—The swastika, traditional Indian good luck sign, became a symbol of trouble for two Tulsa Indian women who wanted to use it as a beer tavern emblem.
Indians Discover Swastika Fails To Bring Luck
Mrs. Jessie Thompson, an Osage, and Nita Fox, a Cherokee, said the sign had been up only a few hours when a deluge of protests poured in, demanding an explanation for the "Nazi display."
A day-and-a-half of telephone calls and inquiries was enough. The women scraped the sign off, painted another foolproof one. They named the tavern "The Ni-Hke-Kah, an Indian inn," even Mrs. Thompson, did not know.
"But," she asserted, "I still want the world to know that the Indians has,' the first option on the swastica."
Kingston, R.I., May 12—(UP) —Fence Viewer Earl C. Whaley established the Town Council by presenting a report of a 1936 complaint that no fence was needed between two properties and that had not grazed there for 40 years.
The report was the first in many years made by a fence view, because appointments to that office—though not considered as jokes—at best have been regarded as "empty compliments."

Australia Almost Had Shakespeare as Capital
Canberra, May 12—(UP)–Records have just revealed that the capital of Australia just missed being called "Shakespeare," owing to the uncanny literary tastes of an American traveling man named King O'Malley, who has been a man of great fame in Australia and had become Minister of Home Affairs.
The bard missed being "capitalized" by the overthrow of the cabinet and the organization of a new one which chose Canberra instead.

Speaking of curtains, it looks as if a special one will have to be erected for Helen Palmer and Paul Mariott. The couple felt a strong urge to cuddle yesterday noon in Bricks' and put on quite a show. But they never looked at the others didn't object, except that their food got cold while they watched.

Warden's Weakly Report
This is the second report this week by Warden Shore, so you can rest assured that there won't be many more provided it gets warm enough for him to go fishing. The report: the old mamma bass hatched out 26 baby bass yesterday, but the old pup bass ate 10 of them for breakfast. A fellow was caught this am. fishing with a Sig Ep pin for bait. The old turtle shrugs she has a competitor in the lake that lays those golf balls. The water still tests 3.2, which is legal.
