Geologist in Area To Hunt for Fossils
KU is the headquarters for a search which goes back more than 600 million years. Trevor D. Ford, visiting geologist from the University of Leicester, England, is here to look for fossils of the Pre-Cambrian era. This era is from about 3,000 million years to 600 million years ago.
Prof. Ford has just returned from South Dakota where he spent three days looking at Pre-Cambrian rocks. He said, "My study is of Pre-Cambrian Stromatolite limestones and other Pre-Cambrian fossils. The idea of this study is to try to fill in the missing pieces of the early history of evolution."
Prof. Ford plans to travel to Grand Canyon, Ariz., Glacier Park, Mont., and parts of New Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado, and Minnesota. These areas are known for discoveries in fossils of the Pre-Cambrian era.
13th Sorority To Get Charter
Presentation of the original charter of Epsilon Beta Chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta Saturday, May 15 will highlight a weekend of festivities honoring the re-chartering of the KU chapter.
Mrs. Thomas J. Ehrhart of Dayton, Ohio, grand president of the international sorority and former Lawrence resident, will present the charter to the chapter members at a banquet in the Big Eight Room of the Kansas Union. Vice-chancellor James R. Surface, representing the University, will give the main address.
The KU chapter was a victim of the depression in 1938 after being on the campus since 1922. The chapter returned to KU this spring following formal spring rush of the other sorority houses. Alpha Gamma Delta is the 13th social sorority on the campus.
The activities for the weekend will begin at 7 p.m. Friday, May 14, with a fireside in the Kansas Room of the Union. Members of Epsilon Mu Chapter, Fort Hays State College, will present the program at the fireside.
Initiation of the pledges will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 15, in the Skyline Room of the Holiday Inn. Officers of Epsilon Kappa Chapter, Kansas State College, Pittsburg, will conduct the service.
Following initiation the traditional International Reunion Day luncheon will be held at 11:30 in the Big Eight Room of the Union.
Activities of the international women's fraternity will conclude with a presentation tea on Sunday, May 16, in the Ballroom of the Union.
