Postoffice to Supply f
Work for Unemployed
Supplementary holiday work in
the Ann Arbor postoffice will be
given to unemployed married men
with families, it was announced
yesterday by Postmaster A. C. Pack,
under orders from the postoffice
department.
Since men who answer to these
requirements have applied in suffi-
cient number to fill all openings, it
wil be useless for students to ask
for jobs, Mr. Pack pointed out.
The order under which the post-
master is acting is a general one,
and probably wil also affect stu-
dents who are accustomed to work
in their home town postoffices dur-
ing Christmas vacation.

'EARTHQUAKE SINKS
ISLAND NEAR JAPAN
'Most Severe Earthquake' Over
Period of Years Shakes
Port Kamaishi.
TOKIO, Nov. 4.-(IP)-An earth-
quake which shook all of north-
eastern Japan at 1:20 this morn-
ing (1:30 a. m., Tuesday, Ann
Arbor time) caused the disappear-
ance of the uninhabited island of
Sankan, off Port Kamaishi, into
the sea.
It was the most severe earth-
quake in years in that section, but
no loss of life was reported and
there was no word of any serious
property damage in advices reach-
ing here.
Many telephone and telegraph
lines were broken and stone fences
overturned. Tens of thousands of
persons, aroused from slumber by
the shocks, refused to return to
their houses and spent the remain-
der of the night in the open.
At Nifyako observatory, near to
where the shock was the heaviest,
the seismograph needle was thrown
out of gear.
German Forestry Work
Described Before Club
"Life of Forestry Students in
Qermany" was the subject of a talk
given before the Forestry club on
Tuesday night by Frank Ineson,
graduate student.
Mr. Ineson, holder of a Pack fel-
lowship, traveled in Germany last.
semester. He found that there was
great competition for public for-
estry positions, 40 being accepted
out of more than 400 applicants.
German forestry students are given
less actual -woods experience than
the Americans. There knowledge is
scientific rather than actual hand
work.
Archaeologist to Talk
on Mayan Civilization
ARMOR OF PREHISTt
UNDER STUDY B
Under the supervision of Dr. Er-
mine C. Case, director of the Uni-
versity Museum of Paleontology,
work is now under way to uncover
the dorsal armor of a phytosaur,
a prehistoric reptile similar to our
crocodile, discovered by a staff ex-
pedition earlier this year near
Amarillo, Texas.
The dorsal armor extends from
the middle of the back to the mid-
dle of the tail, and is made of
plates. These plates were all found
in place. It is evident, however,
that a piece *of the back was torn
loose and was buried before decay
could loosen the plates. The rep-
tile itself was probably 25 to 30
feet long.
According to Dr. Case, the find
is "an important one because it is
the first time any plates have been
found in association. It gives us
a chance to restore parts of the
animal and to determine the exist-
ence of several genera previously
doubtful."
So far the work has progressed
to the uncovering of the top side.
The specimen must now be cased
in plaster and turned over to .work!

Dr. Case hopes to have the work
completed in two months time and
to mount it in the Museums build-
ing. Other parts of the phytosaur
may now be seen in the exhibition
hall on the first floor.
Iowa City Conference
Discussed by Weaver
Prof. Bennet Weaver, English
professor, returned from the Con-
ference of Creative Writing, held
last week-end in Iowa City, - con-
vinced that the University of Mich-
igan presented greater stimulus, in
the form of the Avery and Jule
Hopwood prize money, to creative
writing than almost any other col-
lege in America. Professor Weaver
attended the conference in the
capacity of a representative of the
Hopwood committee.
Nevertheless, he stated, Michigan
is not alone in encouraging crea-
tive writing in undergraduates and
graduates, for at Iowa the develop-
ment of creative writing is a con-
cious part of the whole educational
system.
