20.000.000 YEARS OLD MRS. HOFFMAN WRITES
Giant Lizard Lived in Western Kansas When Ocean Covered State
The petrified and broken remains of a native inhabitant of Kansas, twenty million years ago, when this state was covered by the ocean, has recently been discovered near Aurora in Cloud county, Kansas.
The bones of this giant creature are now in the care of H. T. Martin, curator of the paleontology section at the museum at the University. Mr. Martin, who has been a collector of fossils for the past thirty years and is the author of a study of this specimen, has been able to reconstruct it so accurately that an idea of the life-like form of this "duck-like lizard" can be gained. By the size and structure of the vertebrae, and by the size of the big breast bone which resembles that of a bird, the length of the body is estimated to have been 10 feet.
Dr. Roy L. Moodie and Dr. S. W. Williston, formerly of the University of Kansas, but now at the University of Chicago, who are both authorities in paleontology, have examined this specimen and they unanimously agree that the creature is of a species bitherto unknown.
To science, the new species will be known as "Ogmodurus Martini," the first word indicating the genus, and the last word indicating the species to which it belongs. It estimates that his friend "Ogmodurus Martini" lived some 20,000,000 years ago. This statement is based upon the fact that the geological strata of the earth in which petrified bones were formed approximately that far back.
President Expects Many Marvinites to Attend Banquet
TO TAG ALL ENGINEERS
Tickets for the Engineers' banquet which is to be held Thursday evening, at eight-thirty, in Ecke's Hall, are selling fast, and from all indications the biggest crowd ever attending will be on hand to help celebrate that occasion. Tony James, a business executive with a corps of engineering students out selling the tickets for $1.25 each, and they are going fast at that price.
The following list of speakers was given out today by Clifford Sykes, president of the School of Engineering, and it includes local and imported materials.
Chancellor Frank Strong.
Prof. G. C. Shaad.
Prof. F. Haworth
W. D. Ryan, U. S. Bureau of Mines,

R. J. Rutledge, chief engineer,

Tonka. Kansas.
P. J. Kealy, manager of the Metropolitan Street Railway, Kansas City,
C. C. Williams will act as toastmaster.
Besides talks by these men there will be a number of speeches by the students in the department, and stunts by the various schools. The committee is planning a number of new and original stunts this year such as electrical, mechanical and civil sciences; and information announcements," said Tony James when asked what the exact nature of these stunts would be, "would be to take away the spice of the stunts when they finally did take place."
Some ill-luck had to result from the Aggie defeat Monday night and it came in the first event on the program when Roy Davidson severely sprained both wrists as he finished the thirty yard dash. The management of the Aggie gym had failed to put up a chance, but his team's "Davy" was coming at a terrific rate of speed he was unable to avoid a collision with the wall.
DAVIDSON SPRAINS WRISTS
IN MEET WITH AGGIES
His arms took most of the shock of the stop and as a result Davidson will be unable to use either arm for some reason. He might have been paranoid and it is expected that he will be back in condition before the Missouri meet. An X-ray of the injury indicates that the neck is injured and that the only cause for the pain was the serious strain of the liga-

Wife of Former Y. M. C. A. Secretary Tells of Her Stay in Germany
A good insight into the life of Conrad Hoffmann, K. U.'s former Y. M. C. A. secretary who is now in Germany with his family doing Association work in the German prison camps, may help to explain last week from Mrs. Hoffmann by Mrs. Charles Kennedy, 1220 Louisiana street.
"I would write a book but the sensor forbids" is written across the corner of the first of the four page letter. It is also implied in the letter that it is useless to try to tell anything of economic conditions in the country because this handicap however, Mrs. Hoffmann is able to tell considerable of interest concerning Mr. Hoffmann's work and the life in the prison camps.
PRISON LIFE NOT PULL
Theatrical troupes, presenting productions with hand painted programs, with athletes and orchestas, are features among some of the best of the camps. All of the musical instruments are made by hand, one prisoner making fourteen violins himself, with a pennon. Athletes are also featured and there are cricket, baseball, football, soccer and gymnastics. The camp almost resemble big schools of adults for there are athletic fields, study classes, Bible classes and almost everything that goes to make up university social life. The Russian camps however are far below the average, the letter states, because of the ignorance of the men and the lack of camp workers who can speak Russian.
LOUISE LEARNS GERMAN
LOUISE LEARNES GERMAN
Shortly after Mrs. Hoffmann's arrival in Berlin, she and Louise her daughter of three, went to visit Mr. Hoffmann's family home. Thuringen, his ancestors have lived for generations. An uncle of Mr. Hoffmann's still lives in the old family home which is quite modern however, now, with its electric lights.
Louise, although only three, can already speak German like a native child, writes Mrs. Hoffmann, and the teacher has forgotten her native language by the time they return to America. All during the six months preceding Mrs. Hoffmann and Louise's arrival in Germany, she could speak English on one child that could speak English.
Missella Walldron, a senior at Washburn, was the guest of Lois Murphy Saturday as Missela Walldron, a senior at Washburn, were former school mates at Washburn.
