EXAMINATION SCHEDULE The first steel rail laid in Kansas was put down in Elwood, across the Missouri river from St. Joseph, on the Elm-Marysville railroad. Thirty days later the track had been laid into Wathena, five miles away, in the county of Albany" pulled a group of Doniphan county notables on an inspection trip of the new road. "The Albany," an ancient wood burner, had first been used in Boston. It had been a pioneer on American railroads half way across the continent before it reached Kansas. It made its initial run in Kansas scarcely a month after the state had been touched by its first railroad. In February 1860, a train from Missouri connect Atchison with St. Joseph. The road was to meet the Hannibal-St. Joseph railway, being built in from the east. Five Roads Chartered in 1854 In 1854 the first territorial legislature in Kansas chartered five railroads: the Kansas Central; Southern Kansas, Kansas Valley; Eastern Kansas, the Leavenworth, Pawnee, and Western. The last one named was the only one of the five ever built. The survey of the Leavenworth, Pawnee, and Western had been completed as far as Pawnee, near Ft. Riley, when it was learned that the federal government would grant aid to the new road if it was rerouted to strike the 100th meridian at the Platte river in Nee. The franchise was sold by the original company and the name of the county is now Pocahontas Railway, Eastern Division. The new company foresaw the rise of settlement at the mouth of the Kaw river and determined to make Wyandotte the eastern terminus of the railroad. The people of Leavenworth did not let this One modern locomotive can pull thirty to fifty times as much as the first locomotive to pull a train on Kansas soil. A modern stream-lined train can attain ten times the speed of the "Albany," which pulled the first train in Kansas. by Donald J.

Married Recently At this point the railroad builders learned that the government had relinquished its requirement that the road be built to the junction of the 100th meridian and the Platte river. As a result, the city of Salina was reached into Denver. Salina was reached April 29, 1867; Hays, March 4, 1868; and Denver August 15, 1870. Built West to Denver The new road was completed into Lawrence from Wyndgate November 26, 1864. The leasuren who were in Topeka, made the trip from Topeka to Lawrence by carriage and horseback to take an excursion on the new road to Kansas City. The road was laid into Topeka, January 1, 1866, and into Junction City November 10, 1866.

Phone 21758. -88 The ancient "Albany" made its maiden run in Kansas on a road which finally became a part of the system which will put into regular service one of the first two stream-lined trains built in the United States. This new train is the Union Pacific M10,001, often called the "Golden Arrow." The Union Pacific and the Burlington system have pioneered the development of streamlined equipment. The "Zephyr" is the Burlington's contribution. The railroads in the United States flourished despite poor financing and management until after the turn of the twentieth century. Since that time they have reached their peak and have declined both in wealth and quality of service. The railroads have been driven to almost desperate circumstances. Railroad operators soon realized that two things were necessary before they could compete with highway transportation and the aeroplane. They must accomplish speed and economy coupled with safety in operation. To make this possible the railroads were faced with the problem of finding lighter materials from which to build their trains and new types of power units in keeping Brokel All Rail Speca Records The original three car unit of the "Golden Arrow" aluminum thefters, the aluminum alloys, the three cars, including the power plant, weighed but little more than a modern pulman coach. In answer to the speed problem, the revamped six-car "Golden Arrow" broke all rail speed records in its transcontinental test run. It made the run from Los Angeles to Chicago, a distance of 2364 miles, in 19th hours. Ease of Cheyenne, Wyoming it attained a speed of 120 miles per hour. It completed the transcontinental run into New York City to set a mark of 56 hours and 55 minutes, cutting 141⁵ hours from the former record. It was not entirely necessary to build this sort of train to attain the desired speed. Steam locomotives can attain speeds well over 100 miles per hour. It is speed combined with economy and safety that is being sought. In answer to the safety plea the "Golden Arrow," by skillful design, has its center of gravity 20 inches nearer the rails than the conventional steam train. Its stream lined design serves to hold it to the rails. Economy Is Greatest Question The economy question is the greatest question to be answered by the streamlined lined trains. Wind turbines are an efficient alternative to the three-car "Golden Arrow" showed that 500 horsepower was required to pull it 90 miles per hour, while a conventional three- train ear would require 1700 horsepower to attain the same speed. All types of ear materials and stream lined design. A comparison of the cost of fue used in the stream lined train and a steam train is interesting. The "Golden Arrow" made the transcontinental run of 3600 miles on 2079 gallons of oil at a fuel of $3, a fuel cost of 2% cents per mile and a cost about eight cents worth of coal or oil per mile and would cost $280 to make the transcontinental run. Citizens of Lawrence will have ample opportunity to ride the "Golden Arrow" in the future. Beginning February 1, it will begin regular service between Salina and Kansas City on the Union Pacific. Fittingly enough it will be put into service on the line of Leavemouth, Pawnee, and Wearn, the first railroad station in Kansas. FERA Jobs to Needy Only Employment Bureau Asks for Information Concerning Prospective Openings With the opening of the second semester near at hand, the Employment Bureau for Men Students at the University is over-run with requests of students for jobs. Some unusually pressing cases are showing up. These include students who have had jobs and lost them because of closed boarding houses; reduction of forces where they have been working or other causes over which they have no control; students who had funds at the beginning of the year but who have found it necessary to work second semester to remain; and students who have been out of school one or more semesters trying to save money, who have some saved but not enough to get through. the entire semester. Some new students just entering the University are making a great effort to get work. Any persons having jobs or knowing where a job could be found is asked to call the Employment Bureau at the Alumni Office.-K.U.175. for my VALENTINE The kind of remembrance that lasts . . . the kind of sentiment that never dies . . . is that of the card you send her on Valentine's Day.
