War Against Pest Provides Students Work in Summer
March of Corn Bore During Past Season Is Big Problem to Farmer
Prospects of untold financial loss to the farmers of the corn belt, and at the same time, lucrative jobs for college entomology students, are both due to the same cause, an otherwise insignificant insect pest, the Euroterus according to Dr. H. H. Burgerton, of the department of entomology.
Although this pest threatens the entire corn production of the United States it, nevertheless, offers an excellent opportunity for youthful entomologists. In addition to this, since the rapid development of entomology as a scientific and commercial enterprise, the work is an interesting training course.
The seriousness of this insect pest's march into the west is just beginning to be fully recognized, said Doctor Humberto. Firewalls are plotted piercing guarantee laws into effect to prevent the spread of the math. Congress has also recognized the danger and plans are under way to give the states机会。
The department of entomology of the University has been co-operating with the federal and state governments in checking the advance of the species. In 1948, ford, entomologist for the southern half of Kansas, sent a number of men from here for inspection work and corn borer scouting in Ohio and Wisconsin. There were about twenty from Kansas in this work last year.
The increased ravages of the corn, borer during the past season will probably result in a call for every available college man with enough credit in entomology to qualify for a job. Dr. Hungerford, according to Doctor Hungerford.
"I will pick men who are studying entomology and who have an especial interest in the work," said Doctor Hungerford in an interview concerning the possibilities open for men from the University.
The scouting work pays $7.56 a day and travelling expenses within the control area. The work involves working with the borer, the suspected sections being checked township by township. Some men are also used for quarantine duty, which does not require as much travel and does not pay as high工资.
Doctor Hungerford recommends that students enter the war against the corn borer if they have an interest in learning about how to find an interesting field of work.
Concert Course Will Present Miss Maria Kurenko
Russian Soprano to Sing
Maria Kurenko, Russian coloratura soprano, will give a recital in connection with the University concert course on Monday, Feb. 14.
Miss Karrenko made her American debut with the Los Angeles Opera Company. Before singing in Los Antojanos, she performed with only eight words of English on her command and started her first concert without a rehearsal. Since then she has toured the United States and is she is on her second tour this winter.
"After hearing her over the radio," Dean D. M. Swarthorst of the School of Fine Arts said in speaking of her coming engagement, "the wonderful impression she made with her coloratura singing was responsible for engaging her for the University concert course. She has a special Russian temperament and is a master of all times introspective. She is booked steadily throughout the entire concert, through the United States."

Hell Week Research Results in a Wealth of Information Gained at Expense of Pledges
Hell week in full swing! Hell week is just one swing after the other for the pledges.
Van, the animal man, when interviewed on the subject of hell week, said, "It is a great thing for the boys to have their teeth removed. The upper classmen wouldn't send the boys out after cats, dogs, or white rats. I never count on getting my sleep during hell weeks. The boys get me up in the morning. I'm not for the freshmen, though."
George at the DeLuxe Café said, "I am heartily in favor of bigger; and longer hell weeks. It turns many a long and dreary night into one of excitement. Besides, there are always some of the boys sent out after a fight, they chewing gun and so I get the bottom of my tables without cost."
The dead at the East cemetery always know when the fraternities are holding the annual week of hell. The plea "To Rest in Peace" cannot be obeyed when several freshmen are killed. Amie Jones, Born 1898 - Died 1924 - Sadly Missed By The Sisters In The Royal Order Of By the Mystic Mist."

Many discoveries of importance have been made by the earnest pledges undergoing hell-week and a few of the more important ones are
That the folding fire escape of Corbin hall is attached to a bell which rings at a most inopportune time.
That the motorman of the K. U. street car or what have you will obliquely stop the car, open the door, allow one to tie his shoe upon the step then go on his way in apparently good spirits.
That tee Kappa Sig wall, being duly protected by sentinels, is impenetrable at all hours.
That the underground sewer from the city park south is not the handiest way of approaching the Hill.
That upperclassmen chew too much gum and eat too many mints.
