(Continued from Page 1.)
Prof. K. F. Schramm came to the
library to look up Information on
lawn fertilizers, and found tho sec
tions cut out of both books. The
article he wished to fjnd was also
missing, having been on the back
of the tennla articloa which had
been taken.
To replace the loss would cost
nearly two hundred dollars, Mr.
Doane said, since single volumes
cannot bo purchased and two en
tirely new sets of the sncyclopodlas
would have to be bought.
Use Penknife.
Pages 301 to 304 had been ripped
out of the eleventh edition, while
pages 783 to 788 In the fourteenth
edition had been carefully cut out
with a pen-knife.
Mr. Doane did not know Just
when the theft occurred but said
it had been aome time during the
last year, since the new edition of
the encyclopedia' had been pur
chased only a year ago.
Steps have been taken to trace
the theft, Mr. Doane reported. It
is thought the pages were cut out
by someone writing a term paper
on the subject. He has conferred
with Dr. Clapp, chairman of the
department of men's physical edu
cation In an attempt to determine
who might have wanted the infor
mation for some class in that de
partment. It is also thought that
the information might have been
wanted by someone in one of the
playground courses or for an Eng
lish term paper. The matter will
be traced fully thru all these
sources in an attempt to discover
the miscreant, Mr. Doane declared.

tee of selection which chooses two

Zoology Instructor Spends Summers
Hunting Worms Inside Deep Sea Fish
University of Nebraska Instruc
tors who spend their summers
doing research for the various de
partments In which they tire Inter
ested Is H. W. Manter, associate
professor of zoology. Dr, Manter
upends hla vacations studying par
asitic worms of deep sea fish.
The group of parasitic worms In
which Dr. Manter is Interested Is
the tromatodca, whloh Inhabit tho
gills, stomach and Intestines of
fish, as well as on other animals.
Mantor has spent summers off
the coasts of Maine and North
Carolina. He spent tho last two
uummers at the biological labora
tory of the Carnegie Institution at
Tortugas, Florlila. This laboratory
Is locutud eighty mllos west of Key
West, In tho Gulf of Mexico, on
one of the five coral Islands In the
that portion of the gulf.
Variety la Large.
About at)0 different kinds of
fishes may be examined there, Dr.
Manter thinks that there la a
greater variety of fish there than
In any othur pluco in the United
States, lie explained over 200 dif
ferent kinds of fish, In which ho
country west of the Allegheny
mountains. Hunnnor has been
granted scholarships each year.
Huosnor Is a member of the
Swarthmore varsity basketball
squad, tho chairman of the Phoe
nix advisory board, which super
vises the student dally publication,
an associate member of Sigma XI,
honorary scientific scholastic or
ganization, and president of his so
cial fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi.
Both candidates If selected to go
to Oxford plan to continue the
work in which they are now en
gaged. Stewart would work for a
buchelor of music at Oxford. Hues
ner would take a degree in physi
ology In two years, returning to
tho United States to complete his
medical training.
Applicants for the stale compe
tition can apply either on the ba
sis of having their residence In tho
state or of having attended a col
lege or university in the state.
Four of the thirteen candidates in
cluding M . Huesner, who appeared
before the committee of selection
Saturday aro students at Institu
tions in other states. One is a
student at West Point Military
academy, one applied from Musk
ingum college, New Concord, Ohio,
and on former student of Doane
college is now attending Yale uni
versity. Nebraska Haa Five.
Five of the candidates are stu
dents or graduates of Nebraska
university. Nebraska Wesleyan
university was represented by
three applicants including Mr.
Stewart, and Cotner college pre
sented ona applicant.
The successful candidates who
are selected from the eight dis
tricts in the United States will re
ceive 400 pounds annually for two
years during which time they may
pursue whatever course they de
sire. After completing two years
work, a Rhodes scholar may com
plete another year at any English
university at his own expense. The
stipend which is granted Is con
sidered sufficient to supply the
necess'Mes of life to the student,
altho the board of directors ad
vises scholars to attempt to pro
vide themselves with some supple
mentary income. The 400 pounds
was formerly equivalent to approx
imately $2,000. Since the reduc
tion In value of the English pound
the value of the stipend is consid
erably reduced.
For the past two years the pres
ent system of district selection of
candidates haa been in use. Form
erly each state was entitled to a
representative every year. The
present district system places rep
resentatives from six states in each
district In competition for four
scholarships. For the past two
years Nebraska has secured one of
these four representatives from the
district of which it Is a member.

found about 100 different species
of parasites. Most of these have
not yet been described by anyone
"Parasites are as numerous in
deep water as In shallow water,"
aaid Dr. Manter, "but they are a
different kind. Home parasites of
the fish found In deep water aro
like those found on fish In the
northern part of the country. Since
these do not appear In shallow
water In Florida, tho temperature
of the water seems to determine
the distribution of tho various
kinds."
Tho fish are caught In various
ways, such as on hook and line, In
nets and traps, and sometimes
with dynamite. The worms are
taken from them and placed In
small vials and brought to the
University of Nebraska for study
by Dr. Manter. Somn fish have as
many as ten different kinds of tre
matodes at once although, usually
only one or two aro found on one
fish. Sometimes only one kind of
fish has a certain kind of tre
matodo, although ono specimen has
been found on as many as forty
different kinds of fishes.
