CWA Project Picture to Hang in Geology Building
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 1934
The drawing in the Geology building, showing the various strata of the rocks in Kansas, along a line extending from near Linn Creek, Mo., to the northwestern corner of Kansas at a vertical slice a mile deep, is nearing completion.
The drawing is on the west wall of the main corridor, on the second floor, of the building. It is 5 feet high and nearly 40 feet long, and is the most detailed and complete study ever made for this part of the country, according to Dr. Raymond C. Moore, head of the department of geology.
It is drawn to the scale of one-third of an inch representing a mile, which allows it to include an area of 590 miles
Doctor Moore prepared the drawing and directed the painting of it. The project was partly based on a detailed study of a large number of oil wells which was made by Betty Kellett, A.B.27. Records were made of micro-structure of the drill cuttings the wells, which gave more detail and accuracy. Miss Kellett is now paleontologist for the Amerada Petroleum company, Wichita.
The senior recital of Leona Mae Jensen, student of piano, will be presented in the Administration auditorium at night 8 o'clock.
The drawing is decorative with different formations painted in colors. Limestones on the map are labeled. A variety of rocks make up this underground structure, including red heads, gypsum, gneiss, salt, granite, schist, and numerous others. The painting is being done with CWA funds.

CHANCELLOR'S PARROTS GIVE REAL SPIRIT TO 'ROCK CHALK'
Two years ago students of the University were treated to the phenomena of being greeted with a cherry, "hello" from tops of the tall elms that surround the Chancellor's residence at Fourteenth and Louisiana streets. It was a happy voice, the voice of a friend wishing one good luck in warm, sincere tones. For two days students gathered to hear this voice from its arboreal pulpit, cutting classes and missing meals. And meanwhile the Chancellor and his family wondered how to get the owner of that voice down from her perch and back to her cage. Hunger finally brought the truant to earth, where tempting bits of cracker and unflower seed awaited her.
Lind and Ley Have Also Acquired Good Stock of Phrases From Passing Students
Ley, the younger of two parrots belonging to the Lindley's, was the owner of the voice. Both she and her companion, Lind, are entertainers extraordinary. They can sing, recite poetry, give the "Rock Chalk" either singly or in unison, and perform other feats of ineustic nature.
Lind and Ley like the students. "I would know what time classes were over, even though I could not hear the whistle," says Mrs. Lindley. "The parrots always begin to chatter when the students pass by to and from classes." The two parrots are fond of attention. Lind, the older of the two birds, has a game of hide-and-seek which she likes to play with onlookers. If paper is placed in the cage she builds a tent, leaving only the tip of her tail protruding from the entrance. If the onlooker asks, "Where is Lind," the parrot will turn around in the tent, pop its head through the door, and, according to Lind, move it down a mile as if protruded of the fact that it has been able to de-lude the seeker. Ley, realizing that Lind comes in for a lot of attention by this trick, tries to imitate it, but she is no builder of tents, as she tears the paper into small bits.
Final Summerfield Tests to Be Given at University May 11 and 12
Thirty Kansas Youths Invited to Examination
Thirty outstanding young men, who will graduate this year from Kansas high schools, were today invited to come to the University of Kansas, May 11 and 12, for final examinations for the 10 or 12 Summerfield scholarships at the University, which are to be awarded for next year's examination. Also, we were examined several weeks ago, and the examination papers were graded at the University.
Those selected to come to the University were among the most promising students, and will come for examinations of general character, and for personal interviews with the committee which is headed by Prof. Olin Templin.
Following is a list of those invited:
Freere Armstrong, Toronto; Henry Barker, Junction City; Henry Eugene Buchanan, Chanute; Dave Burke, Chicago; Robert Crank, Salina; George Cronemeyer, Chanute; Laurence Hailton, Robert Kenny, Kansas City, Kan; Arthur Crank, Minneapolis; Wichita East; Glenn Martinsson, Wichita North; Dexter Miner, Ness City; K邑 mothoire, Pratt; Dean Moorhead, Hugotton; Loren McCormack; Mildred; Mulligan, Minneapolis; Nutter, Kansas City, Kan; Ellis Pardee, Wichita North; Eugene Ricketts, Paola; Robert Riederer, Rahal, John R. Rihoe, Sydney Schroeder, Wichita East; Richd Stark, Topeka; Hervey Vigour, Sensea; Donald Voorhees, Leavenworth; Ward, Peadow; Martin Withers, Clay Center, Louis York, Wichita East.
The Summerfield candidates are selected entirely upon competitive examination as to knowledge of subject matter, and promise for successful college work; a strong study record; and in most cases is renewed for three more years.
Initiation of the 29 students ejected to Phi Beta Kappa, national honorary scholastic fraternity, will be held tomorrow evening in the Eldridge hotel at 6 o'clock. Following the initiation a banquet will be held at which Chancellor E. H. Lindley will preside, and M. W. Sterling, professor of Latin and Greek; Elvira Weeks, assistant professor of chemistry; Ray Miller, e34; Domenico Gagliario, assistant professor of economics; Irene Conley, gr; and E. B. Stouffe, dean of the Graduate School will speak.
Engel to Describe Summer Tour
E. F. Engel, professor of German will announce and describe a summer tour to Germany for students in a broadcast from KFKU, the University radio station, Thursday, May 3 at 2:30 p.m. The tour is for study and travel in Germany and will include attendance at the week's summer session at the University of Marburg.
Phi Beta Kappa Will Initiate
Geology Class Collects Fossils The geology I class under the direction of professor Schoewe collected between 200 and 300 fossils on their field trip to Eudora Saturday, which they brought back to use in laboratory work. On the trip they studied formations such as weathering, solutions, glacial deposits, and alluvial fans, of which they found excellent examples.
Engel to Describe Summer Tour
Correct Close Collect Foresail
Jealousy between the birds is strong. When one does a particular trick that receives the praise of the Lindley household, the other will do its best to learn the trick. A short time ago Mrs. Lindley bought two硬骨 bone bracelets for the two birds. To Ley she gave a blue bracelet, and Lind received a red one. Discovering one day that Lind held the red trinket in her mouth, while she perched with dignity on the swing in the cage, Mrs. Lindley remarked to some member of the family that she should have a photograph of her holding the trinket to take a camera, and when she returned, she found that Ley was perched in a like manner, proudly exhibiting her blue bracelet for approval.
It is not sentiment that prompts Mrs. Lindley to give the birds "presents." The natural instinct of the bird is to chew, and if given some wooden object on which to exercise their strong beaks, they will not practice on the furniture when they are turned loose 'n a room.
The birds have quite a store of lines to say. They have been taught verses of poetry and little songs. Lind is the more talkative, and will talk readily for nearly anyone. Ley has the clearer enunciation. One of the most amusing lines they say is, "Deam me, dear me."

Program of Tactics and Maneuvers Will Continue Tomorrow
R.O.T.C. Inspection Begins
Beginning with class inspections this morning and continuing this afternoon with the reviews and a battle problem, the annual training and administrative inspection of the R.O.T.C. will not end until tomorrow afternoon.
Col. R. H. McMaster, of the seventh corps area, is conducting the administrative inspection while Major H. L King and Major P. L. Forcari are making the training inspections for the coas artillery and engineer units respectively
Much of the training inspections were completed today and the reviews were held at 3:30 and 4:30 for the engineer and coast artillery units respectively. A problem in battle tactics was carried out in the engine unit this afternoon at 4:30.
The inspecting officers were guests at a luncheon this noon in the Memoria Union building attended by the military members of the senate R O.T.C. committee.
Dr. C. F. Taylor, superintendent of the state hospital at Norton, will conduct a special chest clinic Tuesday, May 8. at Watkins Memorial hospital.
SPECIAL CLINIC TO BE HELD
AT HOSPITAL BY DR. TAYLOR
The clinic is free to all students and faculty members of the University. Any one wishing to enter it, however, must have a valid appointment on Friday for preliminary examination.
This clinic and the one held last January are financed by the Douglas County Turbulcous association. The money is obtained from the sale of Christmas seals the preceding year. Forty dollars was the amount contributed by University students last year in the purchase of seals.

Daily Kansan Should Know Everything, Campus Students Believe
The Daily Kansan, constantly blamed and criticised, can go about with a knowing smile twisted becoming into one corner of its mouth, for it has every reason to believe that the Campus is still upon it for the greater source of its news.
Hill students have come to consider the Kansan not only a newspaper but also a lost and found bureau; they seem to believe it should know everything.
Each time the whistle blares at the wrong time, phones start buzzing someone wants to know what is the matter. At election time, bedlam reigns in the news room as bells ring and excited people enter into the ears of answering reporters.
Not so very long ago, a girl callea, the Kansan asking if anyone there had seen her brother. "We lost him in Kansas City this afternoon," she explained.
Henry Werner, men's student adviser is frequently sought at the Kansan office, and there was a time last September, at about 8:30 p.m., when a sweet feminine voice came over the wire asking for Dean Agnes Husband.
But the worst example of the wrong use of the newspaper's willingness to give out news occurred just before the W.S.G.A. election. A caller asked for the names of the candidates at last year's women's election. A reporter obligingly hunted them in the office of the mayor, the voice on the other end of the line, "she didn't run after all," and hung up without even a thank you.
Doctorate Privileges Go To Seven Departments
Committee on Graduate Instruction Votes on Hill Groups
Seven departments of the University of Kansas are recommended as adequately staffed and equipped for granting the doctor's degree, in a report just submitted by the committee on graduate instruction of the American Council of Education. This committee made an exhaustive study of the various American universities, and then submitted its report to approximately 100 outstanding scholars in each field of instruction.
The departments at the University of Kansas that are regarded by the committee as qualified to give the PhD degree are chemistry, education, entomology, geology, history, psychology, and sociology.
Among the various scholars invited to the qualifications of the schools were the following from the University of Kansas: Dinmore Alter; H. P. Cady, C. D. Clark, F. B. Dains, Eugenie Galloo, F. H. Hodder, John Ise, J. P. Jensen, Johnson, D. C. Lowe, B. Lawson, M. Dcornan A. L. Owen, N. P. Sherwood, E. B. Stouffer, F. T. Stockton, H. C. Thurnau, and A. T. Walker.
