SCHRADM TELLS OF
OIL POSSIBILITIES
Geology Professor Says Nebraska
Oil Wells Have Valuable
Producing Power
Prof. E. F. Schramm, of the Geol
ogy department, spoke on Nebraska
oil possibilities Sunday afternoon in
Morrill HalL Mention was made of
the many deep test wells in Nebras
ka, the deepest one being in Banner
county with a depth of 5697 feet.
Professor Schramm stated that the
test wells have shown that Nebraska
has underlying structural oil forma
tions that are similar to those in oil
producing regions in Kansas, Okla
homa, and Wyoming, and have valu
able producing power. The reason for
the non-productivity of Nebraska
wells is that nature has not yet com
pleted the distillation of oil shales.
He stated that testing has not always
been thorough, the drilling having
not been carried far enough to test
all sands. A number of favorable
structures were cited, particularly
those near Chadron, Agate, Cam
bridge, Table Rock, and Union.
CADMAN DECLARES
CHAPEL NEEDLESS
Great Congregational Minister Tells
Harvard Reporter Atheism
Is Losing Ground
Cambridge, Mass., Feb. 20 (By
New Student Service) "Atheism
among college students is of no im
portant consequence," Dr. Samuel
Parkes Cadman,' minister of the
Central Congregation church, of
New York, told a reporter for the
Harvard Crimson. "As these stu
dents grow older they will come to
realize that there is a God," he con
tinued, "Students as well as other
people often confuse the term God.
It takes in a broad sweep of mean
ings. People who call themselves athe
ists really are not atheists at all. Any
one who has any ideals at all, which
are worth while, could not be an
atheist."
Asked if he thought college chapel
exercises should be made compuls
ory! Dr. Cadman replied :
"They are no longer necessary in
colleges. Many institutions still in
sist upon students attending chapel,
but a great many have abolished the
idea, and in a university like Harv
ard, it is, indeed justifiable.

Ohio State Students
Criticize Pastors on
Apparent Frankness
Columbus, . Ohio, Feb. 20 (By
New Student Service) Ohio minis'
ters in. convention at Ohio State unl
versity were somewhat disconcerted
when university students, whom they
had invited to present undergraduate
views on religious leadership, became
truly critical. Ministers, the stu
dents said, pose as final authorities
and never admit they do not know,
fail to discuss frankly, sincerely,
willingly and intelligently t the most
vital problems of life, and talk at,
rather than with, their followers.
At- first the ministers rose in pro
test and wanted to give battle. After
a lively meeting the clerics agreed
to wait until all the student - criti
cisms were in before making their
defence.

"Irish" Ireland was on hand last
night dancing with all the ambitious
chorus men. Time after time he
made his little hot-foot across the
floor, showing the applicants, who
looked on with mouths open, the
proper step. One self -satisfied gentle
man (or maybe it was the A. T. O.

wathced the antics of "Irish" as he
