According to Professor Hood, about 800 men have graduated from this school, and has of this number, fifty percent are engaged in the engineering profession in Kansas or in the states bounding Kansas. Of the other fifty per cent, some have given up engineering or are practicing the profession in which separated parts of the world.
General W. M. Black spoke on "Engineering Today," and dwell upon the necessity of the engineer's being well read in the profession. He showed that an engineer who has the fundamental knowledge of the branch of the technical profession. He also told of his experiences in helping clean up Cuba."

WALKER SURVEYS OIL-GAS SITUATION
To discover methods for the conservation of oil and gas products is the object of a survey which is being conducted at the University's school of engineering of the University of Kansas, and chairman of the mid-continent board of research of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Millions of dollars in raw products are lost every year, to Professor Walker, through carelessness and lack of knowledge of conservation methods.
The work which Professor Walker is conducting extends over Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, northern Texas, and northern Louisiana. Information from the students in this district, from oil and gas companies, from consulting engineers and from refineries. In the end, all the results of the investigation will be combined and the conclusions given to organizations and concerns interested.
"An important feature of this work," said Professor Walker in discussing the project, "is the investigation of dangerous equipment which is necessarily used in such plants. The use in various capacities of oils and fuels which are used by workers will also be investigated, and efforts will be made to secure the use of the safest materials and machinery in all plants."
The survey is part of a general movement on the part of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers to encourage research and innovation in industry, being carried on in other sections of the country in a similar way by other groups.

Coach Lindsay's Men Doped to Win Over Aggies by Safe Margin
Student baseball fans got their first opportunity to watch the Jayhawk baseball team in action yesterday afternoon, when Coach Lindsay's men tangled with the Haskell nine in a three-inning practice game on McCook. The Kansas team pulled out on the long end of a 6 to 3 score.
Coach Lindsey's men looked good both in the field and at the stick yesterday, checking in only one error, while Murphy produced a home run and a two base clost in two trips to the plate, and Custer and Gray registered a three-base and a two-base hit respectively.
The dope, as figured from yesterday's scrimmage, would seem to give the Jayhawks a decided edge in Pride. That said, after Argies, as Haskell won from the Manhattan team by 7 to 6 score Tuesday, at Manhattan

B.
...
Writing Williams will speak before the University at a convocation Friday morning. William Allen White, who was instrumental in securing Mr. Williams for the address here, says that he is the man of the hour on the industrial relations between capital and labor.
At one time Mr. Williams was a director of one of the large steel manufacturing corporations in Cleve land. Later he resigned this position and went into the mines, founderies, and shops to work as a laborer in order that he might learn the air conditions and ideals of the working man.
After working for some time in this country, Mr. Williams went to Europe to work in the steel plants, so he could ascertain the attitude of laborers all over the world. Since his return Mr. Williams has made commerce in many large cities, in an attempt to establish a better spirit of co-operation between the managers and laboring forces. When Mr. Williams first returned from Europe he spoke on the industrial situation before the Chamber of Commerce received that they paid him $150 to give a thirty-minute talk on the same subject at another time.
Mr. White says it is needless to say that Mr. Williams feels that there must be some change in the manner of handling the industrial problems. Mr. Williams will also give a lecture for students of sociology and economics in Room 202 at Ad Friday 8:30 p.m. He will lecture before the commencement at a Chamber of Commerce luncheon Friday noon at 12:20. Any students who wish to hear him are invited to attend this luncheon.
