LANDWER SPEAKS
TO PHI SIGMA
"History of Anatomy" Is Sub
ject of Address Given
Thursday.
Milton Landwcr, instructor of an
atomy at tho University of Nebraska,
gave an address on tho "History of
Anatomy" Thursday evening before
Phi Sigma, honorary biological socie
ty.
Mr. Landwer pointed out that an
cient civilizations had somo knowledge
of anatomy. The Greeks showed a
knowledge of anatomy in their sculp
hiring and the Egyptians left records
indicating an understanding1 of tho
human body. The Romans developed
surgery n3 a result'of their numerous
wars, and surgery gave them some
knowledge of anatomy. India has a
book of tho fifth century describing
over ono hundred surgical instru
ments, some of which were fine
enough to cut a hair. Anesthetics
were unknown at the time, so rapidity
in operation wns necessary.
Mr. Landwer spoke briefly of Galen
and Vesalius and their contributions
to modern anatomy. Probably the
greatest handicap to the development
of anatomy as a science was a lack
of anatomical material. Early anato
mists were forced to get their ma
terial as the Pre-Medics now get their
cats for experiments.

Military Maneuvers Completed
Last Week Will Count
In Scoring.
All companies of the Nebraska R.
O .T. C. unit took part in the compet
itive problem held last week. The
problem consisted of battle-field
maneuvers, and was held on the flat3
north of the city, extending from 9th
to 14th Streets.
Each company completed the prob
lem during the regular drill period.
The problem itself lasted two hours,
the first hour of tho throe-hour drill
period being spent in instruction and
securing the equipment necessary.
Light packs and trench helmets
were issued to the men.
After marching to the fiats, a bat
tle line was formed at 9th Street
From this point the line was ad
vanced according to signals given
from field headquarters denoting fire
superiority, until it reached 14th
Street, where the problem was com
pleted by charging the enemy.
The problem will count fifteen
points in the annual compet, which
will bo held next month. The com
panies were graded upon the manner
of approach, methods used in the so
lution of the problem, and discipline
during the advance. According to
the Military Science Department, the
grades made will pobably be withheld
until the final compet is finished.

Use. of oil and gas for power pur
poses is universal. Conservatively,
three hundred and forty-five millions
of horsepower in internal-combustion
engines arc installed in the seventeen
million automobiles, motor trucks,
and trnctors used in the United
States, exclusive of the total horse
power installed in stationary oil and
gas engines, Diesel engines, natural
gas engines, producer-gas engines,
etc. This makes the total horsepower
in internal-combustion prime movers
far in excess of the total rated capac
ity of nil the steam and water units.
Domestic production of oil, now
nearly three-fourths of n billion bar
rels a year, has been increasing fast.
It took forty-one years and four
months to produce the first billion
barrels, but only one year and five
months were needed to bring the
eighth billion to the surface. Yet tho
demand has kept pace with the out
put In all but two years since 1911,
domestic consumption, plus exports,
has exceeded production by thirteen
to ninety-six million barrels. Imports,
chiefly from Mexico, have covered
the deficit and helped to build up
storage stocks.
A prize of $100 has been offered
by the national committee for the
best contribution towards the con
servation of oil and gas for power
purposes, cither in the form of a pap
e presented at one of the meetings
throughout the country, or a written
discussion of a paper, or of an orig
inal essay not exceeding 5,000 words,
by anyone attending any of the oil
and gas power meetings. Contribu
tions should be in the hands of the
national committee not later than
June 1. The prize will be awarded
by August 1. Communications re
garding the competition should bo
