The opportunity given those students to work on city dailies during week ends or upon special occasions such as election time is the result of a new method adopted by the department of journalism. Formerly entire classes were taken to nearby cities and assigned to the task of getting out a complete edition of a daily. This manuscript produced in Xinhua, the current member of journalism, decided to send advanced student writers in small groups of two three at a time to dailies in neighboring cities.

Plans Practice Writing
for Students
Seven students of the University department of journalism went to Topela, Friday, to do reporting for the daily papers during the week-end. Those assigned to the Topela Capital were: George L. Carvey, c²⁵, Carl D. Coffe, c²⁵, and Walter Gershwin, c²⁵ Journal was filled; Mildred Guilliams, c²⁶, Frances Martin, c²⁵, Byron Brown, c²⁵, and Loon Seelig, c²⁵
"When a whole class is taken at one time to work on a paper there are too many for the city editor to handle, and many of the students consider the affair too much of a lack," said Professor Flint. "There will be more efficient work done when but a few students are not so hard we hope to send students to Kansas City and other nearby cities," continued Professor Flint. "This will give the advanced students an opportunity to work for expertise."

Beamer Finishes Tabulating 4,000 Insert Specimens
New Addition to Collection in Dyche Museum Has 350 Different Species
Prof. Raymond H. Beanner of the department of entomology has just completed a tabulation of more than 4,000 specimens of insects which are he and Dr. Paul B. Lawson collected at Pingree Park, Colo., in August for the Snow entomological collection in Dyche museum. The new addition comprises more than three hundred species of snow insects entirely new to science, while several others are new to the Snow collection.
Included in this supply, of new material for the collection, already repaired to contain more than 27,000 bottles of hardened specimen of water strider.
Water Strider New Discovery.
There is an interesting story connected with the discovery of this insect. (Discovery is the correct term for the species is new to science.) Dr. H. B. Hungerford, head of the department of entomology, several years ago found four specimens at the water strider at Mary's Lake in Eutes Park, Colo. These were deformed specimens examined by Professor Beamer, and he determined on some future date he would obtain more specimens. Professor Beamer's wish was fulfilled this summer.
Entomologists Met Aug. 18

The Rocky Mountain conference of entomologists convened Aug. 18, at Pinggai Park in Boulder, Colorado, by Ft. Collins, near Keset Park.
The conference was under the auspices of the Colorado Agricultural college at Ft. Collins. The college owns property in Pingree Park and the surrounding area, which Dr. C. P. Gillette, state censusologist for Colorado, invited many
Premier. Berner speaks biggity of the manner in which the Colorado Argic school conducted the week's conference. The meals were furnished there and the scientists said they thoroughly enjoyed the life of the open. There was an average of two discussion meetings daily. The remainder of the time was devoted to collecting and biking.
It was during this time that Professor Beamer and Doctor Lawson gathered the 600 specimens of gerrids, more commonly known as water striders. Among these were badai, a large predatory aquatic creature. The specimens have all been carefully tagged and bid away for future reference and use. Dr. Carl J Drake, state entomologist of Iowa now is at work writing a description of this new founding to entomology. He is working to disbelieve its newness at first.
Scientists Well Entertained
Kelpo, Wash. State University SSR 29. The big stick of the year shipped from the humbering region here is 137 feet long, 42 inches in diameter at the butt and 25 inches at the top. The timber was especially selected on an order from Shanghai to be stepped as a mast in a largest Chinese jungle. For three weeks, men searched for the tree from which this knotless, straight and symmetrical must might be hewn. It weighed 19 tons. It stood 12,618 feet, enough to build a good size house. The big timber was firmly fastened on the deck of a freighter for shipment to China.

Earthquake Rocks Piedmont District of South Carolina
Shock Felt in Other States in South; Georgetown Has No Record of Tremors
District Bres.
Spartanburg, Oct. 20. The Piedmont district of South Carolina was severely shaken today by an earthquake.
The tremors were felt in town and cities in Spartanburg and Green ville counties.
Thousands were arrested by the disturbances, which occurred shortly after 320 a.m. and continued several days later. People and pictures dropped from the wall.
Guests at the hotel in Ashleigh were awakened by the shock, reported the most severe since the Charleston earthquake forty years
The center of the quake was reported between Greenville and Pickens, where the disturbances were most violent and strange rumbling
Residents at Picnic Park thought a terri-file explosion had occurred and rushed from their house terrified. The police said they detected radius of 100 miles of Spartanburg.
Athens, Ga., Oct. 20—An earthquake was recorded here on the site seismograph at the University of Georgetown in April to check reported here since 1896.
lave it was an earthquake, my instruments don't show a thing at that time," said Father Pandoff, seismograph of Georgetown University. He quaked in South Carolina today.
Students Leave Stray Mail
"It may have seen a land slide," he said, "I can't believe it was from seismic origin or my instruments would have recorded it."
Postmaster Points Out Ruling Made by Government
"Several students have the erroneous impression that the mail box which is just east of Green hall may carry mail, when it is not," said L. C. Abraham, postmaster of the University station "Government regulations state that carriers are not required to care for mail and in this box if it is not first-class."
Many students are in the habit of placing newspapers and other second-class mail in this box, with the result that they remain there over night, and then they get carried away by carriers. A dozen pieces of mail were picked up at the box Thursday by the registrar and taken to the postoffice and weighed. Five of the pieces of mail had insufficient postage, which was supplied by the registrar. Such mail would have been held up and probably would never have reached the person to whom it was addressed.
First-class mail will be taken up regularly by the carrier from the box of Green mail, but second-class mail may be sent via post office according to Mr. Abrahamus.

British Crystallize Iron
Two English Scientists Produce Large Crystals
(Salmon Service)
Washington, Oct. 20—Iron is not usually thought of as a substance capable of forming crystals, but it does so. “Flaw,” in iron are usually due to the presence of masses of small crystals, which may be seen as a “grain” at the point of breakage. Two British scientists have succeeded in producing large crystals of iron, as much as four by one and one-quarter by one-eighth inches in size. The result is an ancient assay of half that of an ordinary piece of iron which is made up of small crystals irregularly arranged. They are so brittle that a light tap with a hammer breaks them, but they can be rolled out to one hundred times their length without cracking or breaking.

Tiny Motor Driven Well Rig on Exhibition in Haworth Hall Will Drill Holes Through Rock
The well rig mode in the Department of Mining Engineering, on exhibition in the lower hall of Haworth hall, was made in the spring of 1924 by R. C. Mitchell e24 and A. T. Sewell, e25.
With the exception of one or two timbers which would have been too frail for even exhibition purposes, I made to scale, the whole model is an exact reproduction on a reduced scale of the type of rig used for drilling deep holes in the Mid-Continent oil and gas district. I looked at through a magnifying glass and saw that it appeared to be 84 feet high and each part would be magnified in proportion. The scale of the model is 8 inch to the foot, that is, the distance of 8 of an inch on the model.
Not only is this an exact reproduction in appearance but it is a working model and can be used to drill holes in rock. For this reason it will not only be an exhibition space that will be used in instruction.
represents one foot on the rig as used in the field. For example, the small钻 bit, which is the business end of the model, represents a full sized钻 bit with an eighteen inch cutting endore.
In the engine such rigs are driven on gas engines or sometimes by electricity. The model is driven by an electric motor.
The work of designing and building the model, which was done while the builders were still in school, required about two months.
