MAY FIND MONSTER IN PATAGONIAN WILDS
Paleontologist Here Says Not Impossible for One to Survive the Ages
It is not impossible that some surviving monster of past ages may be found by the scientific expedition in Patagonia, according to H. T. Martin, paleontologist who was a memoirist for the journal who went into Patagonia in 1902.
Mr. Martia says that it is not impossible that a modified type of pleiosaur may yet live in some secluded lake and cities the fact that ganoid fishs of which our common sturgeon is a development, have survived from the Devonian period which antedates by millions of years the age in which the pleiosaur, or giantsnose lizard, ruled the oceans of the earth.
in the caves at Dyche Museum repose one of the most complete plastered sarcophagi that have ever been found. Even the intricately decorated boly plates upon which the reptile粘 along in the slime and ooze are present. The plasiosaur was very common in what is now Kansas where the plastered sea is covered by the shallow creatous sea.
"It is useless to predict what the expedition will find, but so much has been found in the past that we never hoped to find that we may expect this expedition to make important discoveries" said Mr. Martin.
In the great upheaval which produced the Rocky Mountains, some of these torrents of the inland sea may have been able to adapt themselves to the colder, deeper waters. This, Mr. Martin thinks, may be the explanation of the word tales of sea captains used to bring to nort.

Quill Club Gave Program And Elected New Membe
Quill Club was entertained last night by a program consisting of poems by Meibu Parker, a short story by Helen Schlumberger and stories by Viola Bechtel. One of Miss Bechtel's stories is unique in that the plot was built upon suspense of atmosphere, rather than suspense of action, as the Crosby Cross acted as critic for the club.
Joe Turner, e'23, was elected to membership in the Club. Mr. Turner was winner of second prize in the Oread Magazine short story contest.
Light refreshments were served after the program.
POSTERS ARE BARRED BY STUDENT COUNCH
Flaming Political Placards Ta booed By a New Resolution
WILL CHEAPEN EXPENSES
Action Taken in Pursuance o the Chancellor's Economy Program
Program
At a special meeting last night, the Men's Student Council passed a resolution prohibiting the use of posters for the event. A large flaring variety, but also the more modest tree and telephone pole picacles are taboo. The action was taken in pursuance of the policy of the organization, a color filmeller in a recent convoction address.
It is also in the nature of a democratizing move. Many students worthy of office, do not possess the funds for carrying on an expensive poster and placard campaign, it is said, and this action will allow these students to compete on an equal basis with those more heavily endowed.
K. U. TO DEBATE OKLAHOMA
Lastly, the action is a same one from the viewpoint of landscape architecture according to members of the school board. It has been with which the campus has heretofore be adorned have never added to its attractiveness, regardless of how politically effective they may have be in education, and it has not been for passing the new resolution.
May Permanently Adopt No-Decision Plan of Debate
It is not yet certain whether or no K. U. will adopt the no-decision plan of debate in the future. In fact the matter necessarily depends largely upon the general opinion of other with which the K. U. teams debate.
"I favor the no-decision plan for debate," said Prof. Shinn of the department of public speaking, "because there is a greater interest shown by the audience that needs to ap go more thoroughly into the subject, knowing that they may be asked to explain any statement that is made. One of the features of the no-decision debate is the open forum where people can argue, as is privileged to question the debaters.
The last men's debate that can be heard here this year is to be held Friday, April 7, in Fraser Hall, when Eriot Trolyton, Milton Cummings, and Nathan Mnookin will attempt to convince Oklahoma that "a court of justice has been established" in Kansas plan should be adopted by the several states."
There will also be one more women's debate this year. Manhattan come here to debate this same question.

MacDOWELL CONCERT LIKED
Gave Program of Her Husband's Compositions
Mrs. Edward MacDowell, wife of America's greatest composer, gave a concert in Fraser Chapel on Thursday afternoon, for the benefit of the Kansas chapter of the MacDowell Fraternity.
Entomology Collections Received for Study Here
Mrs. MacDowell played a program of her husband's compositions, with interpretations as nearly conforming with the composer's ideas as is possible to attain. Irene Peabody assisted Mrs. MacDowell and sang a group of Edward MacDowell's songs. This was one of the most delightful and unusual concerts brought to the University for a long time.
Mrs. MacDowell is one of the most outstanding characters and personalities in the music world not only because of her exceptional musical accomplishments, but because of the splendid work she is doing with the artists colony in New Hampshire which her husband founded. She is possessed of a keen business sense and executive ability which is proven by her successful management of the music company which she was founded, not in honor of a man, but in honor of a man's ideals; a place where the artists can create unhampered by the sorrid everyday 'things in life.'
Two excellent collections of diptera, one from the department of agriculture at the University of Pennsylvania, and the other from a specialist in Missouri, have been received by the department of entomology for study by C. H. Curran, research fellow in entomology at the University of Pennsylvania, and is assisted in his work by those holders of collections who may wish additional information concerning the subject, which is wrought out through his study.
The diptera include the family of flies, of which a large group is represented in the two collections just received.

To facilitate this training, the U. S. Bureau of Mines has equipped Mine Rescue Cars which travel from place to place, carrying a crew which give instructions. These cars are also subject to call in case of mine accidents.
These instructions are given by the Bureau of Mines in order to decrease the number of mining accidents. The purpose is to train the miners in the first aid, mine rescue work, and the use in the prevention of accidents.
The cars are completely equipes, with stretches, first aid supplies, and oxygen breathing apparatus which enables the wearsers to enter the矿业 and work in an atmosphere in which this, they would not be able to live.
These cars are stationed in the dif- ferent mining centers so that they may quickly reach the scenes of ac-dents. They are given special service on the railroads. Car No. 4 covers the two and part of the Oklahoma distri- tion.
The first aid course to be given is open to all students and is required in Mining I.

the War
Traditional Policy of the Regular Army Has Changed Since the War
Those men who are entitled to wear the Honor Ribbon of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps of the University were announced at a lecture given in the K. U. unit yesterday afternoon. They are as follows:
James, Markey, Mills, W. Arm-
trong, Firehawk, Johnson, Snell, Wnall
Vouten, Treifal, Roth, Walker, Dr.
Armstrong, Chesoldine, Ferguson,
Ferrell, Hicks, Stonebroker, Beatty,
Long, and Trueblood.
In addition to the announcements of the honor students, Captain Archibald read part of the National Defense Act of 1916. He told how before the Great War the traditional policy of the United States was to maintain a small regular army and a large citizen force available in time of war.
These men have been selected out of the entire unit as excelling in scholarship. Some time ago the Honor Ribbon was authorized by the War Department. It is worn in a pre-trained manner under the left shoulder.
Lately however, the policy of the country has changed in so far as the regular army is maintained as skeleton on which to build a formidable defensive force in case of war. The regulars are not sent to the field immediately on the outbreak of hostilities but are kept as a foundation on which to mold a fighting machine. The regular's equipment is to localize and perpetuate the principle fighting units of the recent war.

Young English Prince Needs a Rich Bride
ALLEN OPTIMISTIC
ABOUT COAL STRIKE
London, March 31 (United Press),
— Prince Henry son and third child of King George, celebrates his 22nd birthday today, and salutes were fired in London, Windsor, and all naval bases on the anniversary. The young prince is a lieutenant in the 10th Hussars. But young Henry has few privileges, being a younger son, and unless he can secure a wealthy bride, he will be condemned to the rather humdum existence of a junior officer, compelled to take the family's side. The British royal family has no money to spare for younger sons.
A rather serious-looking young man, Prince Henry has had no opportunity to display special brilliance, except in the field of sport. He is easily the best cricketer and pole vaulter, but he is also a far-country runner.

Days Industrial Court Will Protect Kinsans From a Coal Famine
HAS FAITH IN THE COURT
---
Declares the Miners and Operators Have No Valid Excuse For Quarrel
"The action of the Kansas Court of Industrial Relations was for the purpose of protecting the public from harm so far as this state is concerned.
Topeka, March 31 — Governor Allen, in discussing the action taken by the Kanas Instrument Court in an attack on the tie-up of Kansas mines today, said:
"In the hearing before the court it was found that the operators and the miners agree that the supply of coal at the present moment is abnormal and that the mines should not be successfully operated for a week or two until the track and yards are cleared of surplus.
"The order of the court means that when the situation is cleared, and there again arises a demand for coal, the court will require an remaining away from work on the grounds of wages or lack of a working contract. The operators will have no valid reason for refusing to conduct work under such conditions resulting the outcome of negotiations.
"The situation in Kansas is altogether hopeful. The order of the Kansas Court leaves the operators and the miners nothing to quarrel about so far as the Kansas situation is concerned.
"In the meantime the court has made a complete survey of the supplies of coal for both industrial and domestic use and is in intimate touch with all points in the state. It will be able to know exactly what the demand is in sufficient time to prevent any famine in fuel at any point,
Indianapolis, March 31—John L. Lewis defied the Kansas Industrial Court today in seeking to restrain the Kansas miners from striking and asserts it will not be obeyed. The Kansas miners will strike at midnight the same as miners in all other sections of the country, he said.
Washington, March 31. -The last minute effort of the House Labor Committee to halt the coal strike failed today.
The new resolution is to be presented directly from the committee to the president, asking him to call a conference in Washington immediately of miners and operators with the purpose of agreeing on the suspension rate. The vote was shelved. The resolutions were offered by Representative London, socialist, of New York and Upphor, Democrat, of Georgia.
The committee said no action it would take would check the strike. In the Senate a resolution of Senator Calder, New York, asking the Federal Trade Commission to make comprehese including charges of profiteering, was brought on the suggestion of Southerland, West Virginia.
