Geology Professor Broadcasts Talk On Oil Indications
"FavorableSurfaceFeatures Do not Guarantee Results in Drilling" Says Knappen
"First of all, the geologist finds areas covered by sediments of certain ages which he knows commonly contain oil and gas. Second, he looks for surface indications that oil and gas are present. Third, he searches carefully for the structures in which the treasures may have accumulated in commercial quantities, and said that professor of geology, in an address broadcasted last night from the station WDAF, the Kansas City Star.
"The most favorable surface fea tures are escaping gas, ashphalt, an oil stained rocks. All of these show that oil or gas is present in the area. In addition to these, sulphur springs, salt water springs, native sulphur springs, volcanoes, and other signs indicate the presence of oil or gas underground, but these features are often found where the fuels are missing, and reliance should not be on them. There are surface indications which prove that oil is actually present," said Professor Knappen.
Oil Accumulates in Domes
Oil Accumulates in Domes Professor Knappen pointed out that she had folded these into a dome or antinect, and it has a water-tight cover, the gas, oil, and water that it contains will arrange themselves with the gas in the highest part of the structure, on the sides and beneath, the water will be found.
A well located on top of the structure will show gas on top of the sand and oil farther down. "Having determined that a given region is likely to contain oil, the geologist searches for the anticline and domes, and other structures in which oil may have accumulated.
Structures Plentiful in West
Structures Problem
"Occasionally in the Rocky Mountain states and other states the structures are well developed and have such wide side slopes that they are readily visible to the eye. Throughout all the Kansas and Oklahoma oil fields as well as most areas, * is necessary to make accurate surveys to find the structures," explained Professor Knappen.
Buried Gold Lures Missourians to Dig
"Thus no geologist can guarantee that oil or gas will be found beneath certain structures. There may be no sand. The sand may be dry, it may be full of water; only the drill can tell," concluded Professor Knappen.
The spell of treasure hunting is even yet so potent that men will spend their lives searching for the health that they require from the earth. That same motive that led the sons of that wise old king to dig up the fields they had inherited to find not the expected health and work, still lures them.
An example of this fascination was found recently when Professor Young of the department of geology was approached by a man who told a treasure tale with the glamour of the Civil War still about it.
It seems that in Missouri, a wealthy man decided to go and fight for the Southern cause. The instantiated warrior him to withdraw his fortune from the bank and put it in an infinitely safer depositary—the ground. He left and never returned from his first battle. But the money is still there,
Wells were favorite hiding places of the day, and it is said that the treasure may have been buried in the walls of a well sunk in a hollow on the farm. No tree of a well is longer since it has been exposed that it has long since caved in.
On this same farm is a second and larger treasure about which less is known. One version of stories about a wealthy money war was buried by bank robbers.
The resourceful visitor, tired of digging, came up to see if there was in existence a prospecting device that could make gold it is in gold, the common currency of the time. On being told that there was no instrument to show the presence of gold in such small quantities, he went to gold mining activities with the pick and shovel.

'The Hindu' is Propaganda Says Graduate Student
"The Non-cooperative Movement in India," was discussed by Solomon Ramalingam, an East Indian student who is doing graduate work in his history at the University, at a meeting of the Graduate Club last night. Mr. Ramalingam plays the play "The Hindi," which was presented here by the propaganda against his people. "India is divided into about 200 castes," said Mr. Ramalingam, "which are like prisons against progress.
Wesley Pommerenkue, graduate student in zoology talked on his "Experiments on the Function of the Thyroid," on which he is working for material for his thesis. Plans were made for the annual banquet which will be held in April. Arrangements were also made for conducting the experiments in the reflections. The St. Patrick idea was carried out in the refreshments. The next meeting, which will be March 22, will be open to visitors.
Professor of Science Addresses American Legion on Warfare
C. I. Reed Compares European And American Scientific
Progress
"Lewisthe, the toxic gas which received so much publicity during the last days of the war, was never actually used on the battlefield, but the American department of chemical warfare had 200 tons of the material manufactured when the armistice was signed. The president has talked to the Eli Dorsey Post of the American Legion on the subject of chemical warfare.
Mustard gas was the most toxic chemical used, according to Professor Reed, and while 'lewisite was not so poisonous as was commonly supposed, it was at least four times as poisonous. It was also more toxic than gases used by one or the other of the combatants, lewisite alone was a totally new compound.
"Only one man in America had taken much interest in toxic chemistry from the standpoint of warfare before America entered the war, but Mr. Germans were able to make those were able to do things none of the allies had been able to accomplish," said Professor Reed. The Germans had thirty-five years in
which to develop chemical warfare but were not as extensively prepared as they were commonly reported to be.
General Silbert is asking as having said that when the American Army of Occupation entered the Rhine valley, they found the Germans using the American process of making musket fire; it was superior to their method.
The lecture was illustrated with Professor Reed's slides, mostly official pictures taken by the photocopy section of the United States army.

Construction Material Arrives, and Work Begins on Library
Small Grove of Trees Must go to Clear Way For Building Operations
Work has been started on the site for the new library just south of Snow hall. About a dozen men began work yesterday, putting up a carpenter shed and offices for the superintendent and architect, hauling material to the ground, and cutting down trees to clear the site for the steam shovel which will commence to excavate soon.
About a dozen trees have been cut down. The number is about half of the small grove back of Snow hall, taking those nearest the edge of the slope. The frame building, which will hold the construction company's steel framework, consists 40 by 60 feet in size. It is being built just south of the Commons.
A carloed of Bedford stone to be used as the exterior of the library arrived this morning. Additional material is expected to come in hourly, according to William B. Anderson, superintendent of the Moines Human Construction Company of Des Moines, Iowa, who hold the contract.
A special musical program will take the place of the regular B. Y. P. U. meeting at the First Baptist church, at Eighth and Kentucky streets, Sunday evening, March 11. The meeting will begin promptly at 6:45 o'clock
Blasting of the tree stumps may be done today and additional blasting will follow when the steam shovel starts the work of excavation. The frame annex on the west side of the Journalism building will have to be moved into room for the library. Weather and labor conditions remaining favorable, Mr. Anderson expects to have the roof on the new building by fall.

Questions are being asked by freshmen and about elsewhere the statue by the engineering building. The students in the planter, was given to the University by Dr. Simion Bell, who gave the Bell Memorial Hospital at Rosdale. It symbolizes the early pioneer of Kanaas and his hardship in the front yard.
"Cornplanter"Statute Mystifies Freshmen
Before the identity of the statue was established, many conjectures were made concerning it. One professor said to watch it, and if it didn't move it was Sig Alph, otherwise it must be a statue.
For many years it was on a landing in Dyche Museum. While there, a favorite pastime of children visiting the museum was to climb onto the spade and rest before climbing to the next floor.

The recommendations for university maintenance and teachers' salaries totaled $1,950,000. The number of million dollars more than was given two years ago.
