IS IT BROWNTAIL MOTH?
Professor Hunter Preparing To Ward Off Dangerous Pest.
Prof. S. J. Hunter has recently learned of danger threatened to the orchards of the state from the introduction of the browntail moth upon nursery stock imported from foreign countries. This moth is akin to the trissock moth which attacks the maples in this section of the country but hitherto has not had any foothold in Kansas. It is also of the same family as the gypsy moth which since 1890 has caused such great devastation among the trees of eastern Massachusetts. During the decade beginning in 1890, the legislature of Massachusetts expended more than a million dollars to destroy the gypsy and browntail moths.
As state entomologist, Professor Hunter will take prompt action to ward off the introduction of the pest and thus protect the state against its deprudations and the necessity of the expense of appropriations for its eradication should it once become firmly established.
Recently the larvae of this browntail moth have been found on shipments of nursery stock received from France by two different nurseries in this state. Specimens of the larvae are now in the possession of the Entomology department.
Freshmen 45, Manual 18.
Carl Eddy a Prom Manager.
The basket ball team of the Manual Training High school of Kansas City was outclassed in the game with the Kansas freshmen here Saturday night, the game ending with the score 45 to 18 in favor of the freshmen. The large court told upon the play of the visitors who were forced to act upon the defensive the entire time. Van der Vries of the Kansas team starred with ten field goals. Bracken and Mongomery of Manual each threw two, the only ones made by their team. The Lawrence high school students were invited to attend the game free. The line-up: Manual—Bracken and Moffett, forwards; Koenigsdorf, center; Powell and Montgomery, guards. Freshmen-Watson and Van der Vries, forwards; Mallice, center; Larson and Stuckey, guards.
Yesterday Carl Eddy, a junior in the College, was appointed a manager of the Junior prom. to take the place made vacant by Dick Kaufman. The two managers originally appointed were Earl Woodward and Dick Kaufman. Mr.Eddy was manager of the mandolin club last year and took the men on the longest trip that a musical organization ever undertook.
