Court Reporters Hold Seminar at University

The purpose was to assure the courts of an adequate supply of highly trained court reporters.
The sponsors now are the Kansas Court Reporters Association and University Extension. Mrs. Nan J. Ernest, Atchison, is general chairman of the seminar this year. Enrollments are received from all parts of the United States and Canada.

Harvest Moves Rapidly In Southern Half of State
GREAT BEND - (UPI) - The Kansas wheat harvest made rapid progress over the weekend in the southern half of the state, the Harvest Labor Control office said today.
The only area where harvest was delayed was south and west of Pratt where rains of up to one inch Friday night caused a temporary delay.
Barley harvest is underway as far north in Central Kansas as Minneapolis, and much wheat in that area will be ready by the middle of the week.
The office said cutting was expected to be general today in most sections south of a line through Salina and Liberal.
Some wheat cutting was expected to start around Liberal today, and
at Elkhart, Hugoton and Cimarron by midweek.
Combines and trucks are sufficient to surplus in all cutting areas, the harvest office said. Labor is generally adequate but additional men will be needed by mid-week, the office added.
