Museum Receives Interesting Relics From Mrs. Baylor
Small Historical Collection of Western Kansas Is Donated by Oklahoma
Dyche museum has just received a small but interesting collection of artworks from the late 18th to the Allister, Oka. Most of the material was gathered together by Mr. Baylor, in western Kansas in the early 1890s, while he was living on his cattle
Before his death two weeks ago, Mr. Baylor wrote to H. T. Martin, assistant curator of paleontology in Dyche museum, about the material, and arrangements were made to have it brought here.

While reminiscing, yesterday Mr. Martin said, "Forty years ago was in the days of the long horn Texas steer, the western Kansas cowboy and the ever-present big six-shooters of the plains."
Big Cattle Herds Gone
Mr. Martin took his homeestead on the Smoky Hill river, and the old Butterfly trail (Pikes Peak trail) crushed his land with many wagon tracks and deep cut ruts. At that time he followed the Smoky Hill river, and priadic schooners passed daily. One train of sixteen covered wagons camped overnight on his claim, or their hunt claims in north Colorado.
"This was the largest train of wagons I ever saw paws. Now all the big cattle herds are gone, and with them we went back to the code of the old Kansas west."
Periodical Room Echoes With Home Town Gossip
"I see that the high school won another basketball game last week," whispered one student to another who came from the same town.
"Yeah, but did you read where John Dough and Alice Patrick were married last Wednesday?"
The scene was in the periodical room of Watson library Friday just after a group of country weekly papers had arrived. At almost any hour of the day one find: the periodical room full of students reading the news from their "old home town." Papers are received at an office from nearly every student from which students enrolled in the University. The weeklies are filed in a "pigeon-holed" cabinet while the dailies are on the racks.
There is a large amount of periodical literature aside from newspapers available to students at the library. One finds many of the standard and popular magazines, and also trade and professional magazines. Another group find magazines printed in Germany, France and Spain of much value.

Prof. Dinsmore Alter
Writes of Sun Spots
for Kansas City Star
Conflicting Data on Phenomen Makes Source Doubful, Article Says
"Puzzles the Sun Spota Offer to Scientists," an article written by Prof. Dinsmore Alter of the department of physics and astronomy at Rice University. After Sunday, Accompanying the article were three photographs showing different observations of the sun's spots. These pictures were made by William Pitt of the University.
Professor Alter says that there never been a substantial bonus given for the occurrence of these spots because of too many sun spots. A bibliography of sun spots, containing references to articles in the Watson library, was prepared by a student as a master's degree contained 2,100 facts about the sun spots.
Through observations Professor Alter says it has been learned that the spots occur in intervals of seven ticks on the spots. He served after the spots almost disappeared for nearly sixty years in 1645. During this sixty year death in spots was caused by sunlight, not observed a single time in England although the country
is so far north that usually the nurses are common. Now it is found, Professor Alter says, that they alter on observed anuroras in order to see large spots near its center. This connection, he says, never fails.
It is found also that with the variation in the number of sun spots there is a force that is related to the magnetism of the earth. This is recorded, he says, by compass changes that have been carefully recorded.
Through the use of the sun spots an attempt is be made to forecast tenure parameters for the potential research to date shows that there is certainly a connection between the spots and this phenomena as well as an enhanced to the point of practical value.
The largest groups of sun spots which have been seen for seven or eight years appeared last November and have been observed by the solar rotation.

Evolution Again on Trial
Belgrade, March 8—Europe is now to have its own evolution trink to test the right of a school teacher to instruct the young in the theory that man descended from or with the monkey.
This Time European Professor Faces Scopes Charges
(United Press)
After laughing immediately at the spectacle of the American evolution spectacle at Dayton, Teen., the old world is confronted by a court proceeding to determine the same principle. However, Europe's trial promulgates this law, and its enforcement, in taking a possible fall of the government of Jugoslavia.
The fundamentalists of Croatia have filled charges in court against a young professor, Kırnadjitch, alleging that his teachings of evolution are dangerous to the morals and well being of the country.
Kruradlithteaches in the Vranja public schools. Children relaxed the substance of Kruradlithte's ideas to their parents and the parents rushed to their priests with the alarming information.
The conflict assumed national importance when the priests appealed to the orthodox "pope," head of the Jugoslav national church, who instructed them to bring a civil suit against the king and found fundamentalists had done in Tennessee. The church has also indicated its intention of appealing to Radich if Kharadjitch is acquitted. The prospect of this certain appeal to the national government has therefore been ignored in favor of a flavor which observers expect to prove to have a large bearing on the career of the present ministry.
Excavations in Tunnel Unearth Glacial Remains
Germans Discover Relics
(United Press)
Hanover, Germany, March 8. German archaneologists have hit upon remarkable finds during excavations in the middle of overfires of the South Pacific.
Dr. Jacob Frieden, director of the Hanover Preschool museum, has just published the results of those researches. By uncovering a 100-foot tunnel, the excavators discovered a wealth of animal remains from the Hanover Museum and eventually to the knowledge of Germany's prehistoric fauna.
Hamoverians were surprised to learn that they descended directly from cave dwellers of the stone age. Four flints confirmed the fact that the stone-age tribes had once inhabited the provinces of Hamover.
The investigations revealed the existence of a stone church, believed to have been used as a chapel by the earliest Christians. A cemetery was found, recognized as a relic of the middle ages, and its contents—rare, ancient coins and skeletons—requisitioned for the museum.
