and SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1927 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN PAGE THREE University Entomologists Join Force of 200 Federal Scouts In Corn Borer Infested Area Eight Kansas University men of the department of entomology were sent to the central government last summer to do research on the aerial infested by the European corn borer. The corn borer believed to be the primary threat to Hungary in brown corn during the year 1910, has spread to such an extent that 60% of universities from Universities and colleges are out under the employment of the government to trace the spread of the aphid. The men from the University who were sent out this past summer are Howard Daw, M. A. 271 Leonard Carson, M. A. 272 Bernard James, Sam Dawes, c?35; Albert James, c?28; George Gould, A. B. 27; Ralph Bennett, A. B. 27; and Bernard Lester, c?28. The men first reported to L. H. Wortheli, Toledo, Ohio, who was in charge of the barns of entomological corn borer control work. During their stay of a week in Toledo the men were taken over part of the barns in order that they might learn to identify infested stalks of corn. In order to arrive at the percentage of stalks infected in each field 500 and 1000 stalks were taken from each hundred stalks were taken from each corner and 140 from the middle of each field. In the same way five fields from each corner and one from each corner and one in the middle. The data has not yet been compiled, but the township has become greater or less, James was first sent to Pennsylvania, but later went to New York to do percentage work. By percentage calculations the percentage of the stalks in infected fields were coming from a single percentage infected the year before. Mathes, who went to Ohio, is still working as a sofort guardian under the supervision of J. D. Kjumpst, a doctor at State State Agricultural College. The rest of the University mer were sent to Indiana. Deny was made supervisor for that state. At one time during the summer he had 28 crew members on board, and Griffin and Dewey were such inside former of a crew in Indiana. One crew scouted each township that had been quarantined but where no cormorants had been found. The two cormorants were from the territory were also scouted. One part of an infested field was all the evidence of cormorant barns that was needed to make certain that the insects that were found were cormorants, the specimens were sent to the government, which is Ohio. Ohio has positive identification. Proof that the corn borer is spread ing in Indiana is revealed in the fact that by Oct. 1, 88 newly infected townships were found in 14 counties. The county officials continue mainly to fields along main highways leading out of the infected townships to fields along the corn borer. The corn fields along the Ohio and Mississippi rivers from westward through Arkansas are the state of Mississippi are also being scouted to determine whether the corn borer has been carried into the county. Congress appropriated $10,000,000 for corn borer control work in 1923 and likewise each state in the infested territories has made large appropriations. The European corn borer, which is built of the moth, Pyrrhaeus bivora (a small insect) one-fourth of an inch thick. It has a brown or black head and a grayish-tan Since the European corn borer was a founding member of Near East states near New York in 1917 it was within five townshes of Lake Michigan and to the south it has stretched northward. New York it is spread all over and New York one-half of the state of Pennsylvania. In order to control the spread of the disease corn harbor the federal and state governments in the destruction of the corn stalk by plowing under, burning, or cutting the crop. The lover becomes full grown about the middle of August. It winches in on the girl, who looks in shock and awe at May it changes to the pupa stage. The moth comes out about the last week of May. In the spring of 1927 the farmers in the infected areas were compelled to clean up the corn stalks. It has alas been commended but never before enforced. Sod Becomes Beautiful When Secret Is Found Government scouting work was first undertaken in Massachusetts in 1918, when quarantine lines were established to check artificial spread. The moth lays its eggs on the underside of cocoa leaves, from the third week in June to the second July, according to climate conditions. The eggs hatch in from three to seven weeks, emerging under the underside of the leaves, boring through the leaves into the corn Margaret Poney, M. A. 27, is now technician of the chemical pathology department of Northwestern University medical school, Chicago. Most of us pass by with hardly a glance—our sense sensation carry the news to our heads—so ugly it grows together—and there'll be a nice green lawn! But here's the secret of it all—we scarce old is beautiful and grow long enough to discover the secret for you if you follow the directions develop the imagination! Next time you pass the new auditorium, pause long enough to discover the secret for you if you follow the directions closely. Close your eyes halfway and gradually open and close them—you will see the atmosphere—because it is in this state that the secret is revealed. You'll imagine yourself a huge giant plant and stress—a street or a storm—or streets or a spreading chustree tree. It's all there if you watch close enough—and it's all in the way you approach the secret will be revealed—but if you are an unimaginative, pessimistic sort of person and scout at the idea—all you will see is "sad"—ugly, ugly she will invent an imaginative thing in the world." Did you ever stop long enough to study the newly laid soil in front of the new auditorium—or sod anywhere for that matter—because sod is sod and anywhere it's interesting discovered the little secret about it? Clothes That Satisfy The federal government does not have jurisdiction over the states, but helps in the control work by furnishing men and money to help enforce More than two hundred secuits were employed by the federal government last summer in scout work. The scouting work will close about Oct. 15. The men from this University have all returned now except Dews and Mathes. Style, Snap, Fit, and Wear go into all of them.

Speech Contest Nov. 10 Varsity Attracts Two Preliminary Tryouts Limited to Four Minutes The tryouts for the third annual campus speaking contest will be held in the Little Theatre, Green Hall, Nov. 10, at 7:30, and are open to all University students who wish to participate, instituted by the department of speech to give students practical experience in speaking. Names of those wishing to enter the contest must be handed to the interpreter degreer of the department of speech, not later than Nov. 9. It was Saturday evening following the Akgie game and the boys' dates were—well, they were not from Bryn Mawr. They had been a much greater success in the dlsl光 of a theater or along a stall. There were many lights of the Varsity dance that night, the boys put up the stall that there was no varsity when K. U. was The pulmonary speeches will be limited to four minutes and the final eight will be chosen from those competing in the preliminary contest, and they will speak in the final tryout for the N.Y.C. Hall on May 17, at 8:36 p.m. in Fraser Hall. Who Preferred Theater The girl refused to believe that K. U. students never dance and insisted that they go to the hall "where it meets" and make sure there was nothing doing. Being freshmen and not journeymen, she had not learned to read the Kanann. The reply fell like the indie's sentence, "K. U-Aggie varsity dance How many tickets please?" Believing the dance would, of course, be at F.A. U., they finally, reluctantly, accepted the challenge of nationalism, "just to prove they weren't lying when they said there was north." The boys' hearts sank when they saw the cars parked along the side. Most of them were already approached the ticket window and asked, "What's going on here, anyone?" Whales Excel Submarine in Art of Ocean Divin (Valentina Serrano) London, Oct. 23.—Whales make the astonest subtreats look exceedingly tame when it comes to diving. According to R. W. Gray, a British nautical surgeon, whales can go up to 800 fathoms, or from 4200 to 4800 feet, when they are attacked. They do not make a gradual, sliding descent, either, but stand on their nose and go right straight down. This behavior is known to whales as "sounding." In the old days, when whales were hunted with hard harpoons or with gain burpees of a type that did not capture their prey, quantity died at the limit of their dive, and getting them back to the surface was a long and arduous task. Sometimes in shallow water they crushed themselves bottom and then killed themselves. Mr. Gray is of the opinion that the thickness of the whale's blubber, or protective layer, is crucial to its ability to withstand "sounding" ability. He writes that the Greenland whale which has an especially thick layer of whalebone, has deeper depths than its relative the narwal Weekly gatherings for freshmen girls at the University of Minnesota and two women in the faculty of the university.

Melbourne, Victoria This example of how emotions bring about intense unusual activity can be seen in a study taken after afternoon in a paper sent by Prof. Heurt Pieron, of the University of Pennsylvania, to psychologists who are meeting at Wittenberg College to discuss the topic. From the annooba, one of the simplest, tiniest forms of animal life, up through the four-legged feelings, the French psychologist said. Even purely mental action is man, which we call thought, is regular and complex. Our thoughts feelings become sufficiently intense so that there is an abnormal dis- tention in our thinking, the emotional stage is reached. In a man, if he is highly emotional, and if he is not well balanced, the emergency reserve of energy may be a resource that he cannot afford "like large ponds, established along a water course, which accumulates the available energy and may cause distress in indudations if the harpooner fails to use the way before a sudden slaughter." In emergencies, this nervous energy gives the animal or man greater control than in the absence of effect is nervous exhaustion, and temporary disorganization of the body. In the animal world, as among men, emotions sometimes lead to unease. When a man declares, "Anat, coming upon a spot of soil near its nest which has been naturalized with the color of for-ground soil," he becomes shocked at the ground violently with his mandible, instead of being content to five minutes in the neighborhood of the suspicuous place." or the superimposed pattern seventy-four fewer students are attending Washburn College than there were last year and 86 less than the year before.

The temperature goes up one day—down the next. It may freeze by day and water by night, so it must be to the flavor, the elusive quality that makes foods taste good. That is why clubs, good hotels and better homes take ice the year 'round. It may not always be needed to save food in a place where the appetishing quality of meals is also helped by generous use of the drinking water, on butter, around the fruit, oivres and celerie. During the cool months, very little ice is needed to keep the chamber冰冷. This we insure an even cold regardless of the weather. We can use plastic wrap in your refrigerator to prevent mold and stink air. Let us help you this fall and winter by supplying you regularly with ice.
