Students Scout Eastern States for Corn Borer
University Entomologists Spend Summer Working on Corn Pest Research
Ten K. U, men, majors or graduates in entomology, spent the greater part of the summer working for the federal government in search of the corn borer. The following persons represent the research work: Glen Pattow, Howard Dorn, Ralph Mathes, Bernard Lisson, Sam Dews, Cherrifo Hennessey, c;20 John Deal, Leonard Tuttle, c;21 Paul Ounn, c;29 and Ralf Martin,
These men, with nearly 600 other college men, met in Tolosan, Ohio, July 9, where they attended a government school for a week, and learned how to recognize the corn borer. The corn borer moth had just laid her eggs at this time, so the men were taught to find the eggs as well as the corn borer.
Crews Cover Many States
At the end of the school the students divided into cruses of three, one of the men acting as a foreigner, one of the girls acting as a cheerleader, Chevroleters or Ford for the states of West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin. The work carried on was that of scouting. The men would go to counties where the corn borer had been found to see if the insect had spread. This scouting allows the government to quarantine infected crops.
Potter worked for a while in West Virginia, but he transferred to Texas where he is now scouting for the pink boll worm.
Dorest seek the summer in several counties in Ohio, finding the corn borer very plentiful there. Mathes worked in a corn borer laboratory in Monroe, Mich., during the summer, but he is in the Texas at present. Lisson did scouting for the bink ball worm of Texas.
Some Work in Lake States
Dewey activates for a crew for a two state men, did special scouting in Lake County, IL, near the canning factories to see if the corn borer was being carried on corn in that part of the country. No trace of the borer in the field. Hoffman, another foreman, and his crew found five districts infested with the corn borer in Wheeseing. W. V. Deil, foreman, with two statemen seated in the townships along Lake Huron's coast, cabin, but they found no corn borer.
Tuttili, also a forenman, reported to have found the borer thickly infecting eastern Ohio. He stayed there three weeks, and even visited County, Ind., where the insects were not so numerous. Ocean and Martin, each a forenman, appeared central Illinois to Tuttili. Those who planned to re-enact action came back about Sept. 15.
He Won Too Often
Oct. 12–(UP) – For 18 consecutive weeks Ewell Shiftfelt first prize at a charity party in Forres Hall. Then he garnered over to another charity affair looking for more bridge tables to conquer. And Ewell conquest. For eight more weeks he copied first honors.
It got so you could set Ewell after he "doubled and redoubled time after time and still be cane out ahead. One second, you knew he was guarded and he was reported to the police.
When detectives visited Shifter's room they found a complete outfit for faking score cards identical with those used at the tournaments, Ewell's secret was out and they took him to jail.

It was just 438 years ago today that Columbus' little boat terminated and he found that the ends of the boat were splitting himself, the birds were singing sweetly, the flowers were in fall bloom and it was windy—just as it is on the shore.
