GEOLOGY CAMP:
Boulder Scene of 'U' Summer Classes

Weather To Remain Hot;
Yet Not As Hot As Azizia

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN

(4 , _

By DICK BUCK
Special to The Datly
BOULDER-Summer school stu-
dents at the University of Colo-
rado have gradually become ac-
customed to the fact that the Uni-
versity of Michigan is also con-
ducting summer school in Boulder.
Four faculty members and nine-
teen geology students make up Mi-
chigan's annual six-week geology
summer camp. The course is a re-
quirement for all geology majors,
but this summer's group also in-
cludes a minerology major.
For the last three summers, they
have stayed at a rooming house
just one block from the Colorado
campus.
Maping Instruction
Under the supervision of Dr. E.
N. Goddard, chairman of the ge-
ology department, the students are
receiving instruction in pace-and-
compass, plane table, aerial photo-
graph and underground mapping.
The work takes them to a mul-
titude of place's in the Mineral
Belt of the Colorado Front Range
and on the eastern slopes of this
range. Dr. Goddard is exceedingly
well versed on the area, since he
was one of the men with the Uni-
ted States Geology Service who
did the original mapping here.

program leaves time for panning
for gold, collecting fossils, Dr. J.
A. Door's imitation of a prehistoric
amphibian walking up a sandstone
ledge, and the climbinb of Ara-
pahoe Peak, 13,000 feet high.
'Black Jack Dorr'
Dr. Dorr, or "Black Jack Dorr"
as the students affectionately re-
fer to him, assists Dr. Goddard
along with Prof. Wynn Stumm
and Ed Stoever.
Recently, the group spent two
days under ground at Poorman
Mine in the famous Gold Mill min-
ing district. During this period,
they became familiar with mining

terminology a n d underground
mapping.
Another two days were spent
around some of the old mining
campus of the district. Addition-
trips have been made to a sand-
stone quarry, a gypsum plant and
a fluorspar plant and mine.
It has become quite obvious to
Colorado University students that
Michigan is in town. The strains
of "Hail to the ictors" and "I
Wanna go back to Michigan" echo
in the local college hangouts at,
least once every day.
Group To Split
The boys have even gotten to-

HUMBOLDT, Iowa ()-At least
one Iowa community is calling on
the state's political big guns to
make certain the traveling Rus-
sian farm leaders do not change
original plans to visit their city.
It is reliably learned from Amer-
icans accompanying the Russians
that some local leaders at Sioux
'City requested Iowa's Republican
Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper to
ask the Iowa Department of Agri-
culture to get Soviet Acting Minis-
ter of Agriculture . F. Matske-
vich to come to their town.
Sioux City Visit Cut
Matskevich and his Russian
farm group, according to initial
plan, were to go to Sioux City and
look over the stockyards there.
More recently, in an effort to
give the Russians more time to
study special subjects of particular
interest, the American planners of
the tour cut out the Sioux City
visit.
There was an immediate pro-
test. Sioux City had been prepar-
ing to receive the Russians and
wanted them to come. Sioux City
people reportedly went to Sen.
Hickenlooper.
Chartered Plane
The result: The American co-
ordinators for the Russians, since
they do not want to disappoint
anyone, may fly a representation
from the Russian group to the
western Iowa city in a chartered
plane. Plans for the shuttle opera-
tion are being worked out.
The Russians and the Ameri-
cans conducting their tour are
finding that distIappointment is
caused by changes in plans. Such
is the interest in their visit that
communities feel slighted when
there are changes in the program.
Yesterday the Russians were
traveling in three groups.

CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURES:
Kavanagh Says Democrats,
Republicans Law Violators.

LANSING (P) - Atty. Gen.
Thomas M. Kavanagh yesterday
accused Democrats and Republi-
cans alike of violating a state law
requiring full reporting of politi-
cal campaign expenditures and
collections.
He issued a preliminary report
on an investigation demanded by
John Feikens, Republican State
Chairman. Feikens had accused
the Democrats of failing to report
their campaign finances.
Gries To Lecture,
Appear on Panel
A lecture and a panel discussion
will be held today as part of the
University's special summer series
on Michigan.
At 4:15 p.m. in Auditorium A,
Angell Hall, Walter F. Gries, Sup-
erintendent of the Welfare De-
partment of Cleveland Cliffs Iron
Company Ishpeming, Michigan
will present a lecture entitled
"Michigan's Great Upper Pennin-
sula."
Gries will also take part in a
panel discussion on "The Future of
Michigan's Northland" to be held
at 7:30 p.m. in Auditorium A.
The Hon. J. Joseph Herbert,
University Regent, Prentiss M.
Brown, Chairman of the Mackinac
Bridge Authority, and Gerald E.
Eddy, Director of Michigan's De-
partment of Conservation, will be
the other panelists.

"T h e information assembled
thus far," Kavanagh said, "indi-
cates that either from lack of in-
formation or failure to understand
the law's provisions, there has
been widespread failure to con-
form on both sides of the politi-
cal fence."
Not Filed in 30 Counties
In at least 30 counties, neither
the Democratic or Republican par-
ties filed the reports required.
Kavanagh said the Democratic
organizations which .did file list-,
ed expenditures of $393,844 and
the Republicans $1,529,786. Fifty-
four Democratic and 31 Republi-
can county committees failed to
file.
He said, however, there appears
to be some duplications in the Re-
publican figures. Kavanagh asked
Republican and Democratic coun-
ty chairmen who did not file to do
so at once.
Does Not Conform to Law
Kavanagh said the report filed
by the Republican State Central
Committee does not conform with
the law because it does not detail
money received and disbursed or
by whom.
He said that he was studying
the law to see whether various un-
ion political action groups and
such organizations as the Federa-
tion of Women Clubs, Farm Bu-
reau, Grange, The League of
Women Voters and others should
have filed.

gether to serenade several soror-
ities.
At the end of the camp the
group will split as Dr. Goddard
takes one part on a four-day trip
through the mining districts of
Colorado. The other group undei;
Dr. Dorr, will tour Rocky Moun-
tain National Park, Dinosaur Na-
tional Monument, and the Uinta
Plateau in Utah.
-Auto Industry
To Set Record
DETROIT (M)-The auto indus-
try's assembly lines still are rolling
along at near-record levels; some
time next week they will complete
the year's five millionth passenger
car.
Although a production lull is
ahead nobody close to the industry
has any doubt the car makers can
and will build another two million
units by the year's end. This, of
course, will set up another pro-
duction record. The present record
is 6,600,000 cars built in 1950.
Meanwhile, at the retail level th-
1955 model cleanup is under way.
Surveys indicate the retailers are
getting sales volume but at the
expense of profits. Big discounts
and lean profits generally are the
rule.
As Is always the case in any
trade survey there are some areas
in which dealers report inventories
large "but not unwieldy in view of
the sales volume."
The trade paper Automotive
News reports that the four mil-
lionth retail new car sale was
made this year on July 23.
At the same time it noted that the
industry built the four millionth
car of the year on June 20. So,
theoretically, it says, the car was
carried in stock 33 days. This, the
paper adds, forecasts a "tough
cleanup."
"Things will work out happily
only for those dealers who turn in
prodigious sales performances in
the next 60 to 90 days," Automo-
tive News said.
Unscrupulous merchants are sell-
ing unneeded fur coats and long
underwear to the natives of Fiji,
a Suva resident complains.

WASHINGTON (lP)--For most
of the. United States, this has
been an unusually hot summer,
and the weatherman's long range
forecast isn't encouraging.
More of the same, he says, mop-
ping his brow.
So let's thumb through some as-
sorted weather statistics, on the
theory that no matter how bad it
is, it's cheering to know the rec-
ords show it might be worse.
Plenty Hot
Take Sept. 13, 1922, an other-
wise undistinguished date in his-
tory. In Azizia, Libya, that da,
the thermometer shot up to 136
degrees fahrenheit in the shade.
Unfortunately, no record was
kept of how many natives turned
to their fellow natives and gave
the Libyan equivalent of:

Saline Mill . ..
S. N. Behrman's comedy "Jane"
will open at 8:30p.m. today at the
Saline Mill Theatre for a three-
week run.
Directed by Ted Heusel and
starring Robin Hall in the title
role, the play is a sophisticated
comedy of 1938 London and con-
cerns a dowdy country relative
who comes to the big city and
upsets the life of a noted novelist
and his wife. The novelist is re-
portedly a caricature of writer W.
Somerset Maugham
The theater is located on U. S.

shows and free refreshments.
Everyone is welcome to attend
and tickets, which sell for $1 per

Stranger
LANDORE, Wales (A)-George
Slade answered a knock at his
door yesterday.
The surprise caller was his
brother, William, 78 years old,
of Ellwood City, Pa., whom he
had not seen for 42 years.
"I decided suddenly to fly
over," the brother explained. "I
didn't tell anybody I was com-
ing because I wanted to find
my own way home, and I did."

"Hot enough for ya?"
No other spot has equalled this
lamentable r e c o r d, although
Death alley, in California, gave it
a good, hot try. There on July 10,
1913, at the Greenland ranch, the
temperature climbed to 134.
Naturally, in h o t weather
thoughts turn to rain and Baguio,
Luzon. For to this former summer
capital of the Philippines, in mid-
July of 1911, came the grandaddy
gully-washer of them all. Within
214 hours, a whopping 46 inches,
or almost four feet, of rain poured
down.
Russian Winters
When it comes to cold weather,
it's acknowledged on both sides of
the Iron Curtain that Russia has
everyone else licked all hollow.
In 1892, in Verkhoyansk, Siber-
ia the thermometer twice dropped
to minus 90. That's more than 20
degrees worse than the worst we
can do: A mere minus 69.7 de-
grees, set Jan. 29, 1954, at Rog-
ers Pass, Mont.
Fries Speaks
On Language
"The old grammar was an at-
tempt to classify 'dead' language
while the new grammEr is an
attempt to make it possible for the
student to find the meaning of
a sentence by teaching him the
signals that determine this mean-
ing," Prof. Charles C. Fries said
in speech yesterday.
Prof. Fries spoke at the last
session of the Conference for
Teachers of High School English.
He explained that "It was
necessary to know the meaning
of sentence before you could apply
the old grammar. With the new
grammar it is possible to use the
grammar to find the meaning.
Prof. Fries has recently returned
from Germany where he has been
the advisor in setting up a pro-
gram to teach English as a foreign
language. He is the head of the
English Language Institute.
