LARGER ENROLLMENT
Stanford Survey Shows An
Increased Attendance
This Year.
PART OF DEPRESSION
PALO ALTO, Calif. Increased
enrollment in American colleges
has accompanied the business de
pression a survey of colleges
made by the Stanford registrar's
office indicates.
One of the largest increases re
corded is that of the University
of Minnesota. There the gain
was 499 students, making a grand
total of 11.226. Only four col
leges report a decrease; the two
Mississippi colleges report a very
slight drop, but at Indiana there
are 187 students less than last
year, and at Illinois, 545.
Cause of increase.
The theory advanced by Pro
fessor C. N. Reynolds, acting head
of the Stanford University eco
nomics department here, offers
business depression as a possible
explanation for the increased en
rollment. "There is always a marginal
group of young people," aays
Reynolds, "who will go to a uni
versity if conditions are favorable
to that, or will enter business if
at the time it seems the most de
sirable.
"When depression is prevalent
and jobs scarce these young men
and women decide upon a long
preliminary investment More
over in the scarcity of opportu
nlty, parents have come to realize
that training is necessary for
success.
Business Men Help.
"On the other' hand, there is
another group of students finan
cially dependent on themselves
whose continuance depends on
earning during the summer and
often during the academic year
and this group suffers. However,
business men are .always willing
to give these college students a
boost whenever possible, al
though many employment bu
reaus maintained at the institu
tions alleviate their condition with
odd job employment.
"In general, equilibrium between
the two bodies of students is
greatly affected by the condition
of general business. Apparently
universities gain more by busi
ness depression and enrollment is
greater.

Skeleton Unearthed in Wet
Clay. By Williamette
University Men.
CORVALLIS. Ore. The bones
of a mammoth were recently un
earthed five miles from Lebanon
by seventeen professors and geol
ogy students from Willamette uni
versity. The mammoth was found
several feet under the earth's sur
face buried in a clay bed above a
rock shelf.
The wet clay in which the body
lay had so sealed it that remains
of organic material were discov
ered with the skeleton. One tusk
of the mammoth had been broken
off during its life time and was
worn and polished at the broken
end. It measures between two
and three feet in length, with a
base diameter of six inches.
Seven Foot Tusks.
The other tusk -which measured
seven feet in length, was in such
a state of decay that it could not
be removed intact from tho wet
clay. Other bones of the animal
were found scattered about in the
earth, rather than in their normal
order. From this it is conjectured
that the mammoth had come to
drink from a spring and had been
attacked and devoured by other
beasts.
The animal discovered is be
lieved by Herman Clark, profes
sor of geology and the leader of
the party, to be a late member of
its species, though its exact classi
fication has not been determined.
He declares it is an extraordinary
specimen and may require inspec
tion by government pcienti.sts at
Washington, D. C, for identifica
tion. Red Headed Puppet

C. J. Frankforter Invents Process
To Extract Sulphur From Crude Oil
Col. C. J. Frankforter of the
University of Nebraska has dis
covered a new process for extract
ing sulphur from crude oil ana
gasoline and thus improving their
quality. His discovery has at
tracted the attention of the oil
industry and is expected to ma
terially reduce the cost of "sweet
ening" crude oil.
Colonel Frankforter is professor
of chemistry at the university and
has patented every step in the new
process.
The Frankforter Oil Process
company, Inc., with headquarters
in Omaha and made up of Lincoln
and Omaha men, has been organ
ized to market the new process.
H. J. Ginsberg of Lincoln and
Omaha w president of the new
company; Colonel Frankforter and
A. S. Sandlovitch of Lincoln are
vice presidents and C. C. Kattle
man of Omaha is secretary and
treasurer.
Nearly four years ago Mr. Gins
berg interested Colonel Frank
forter in the search for a cheaper
and better method of extracting
sulphur from oil. Since then they
have toiled over retorts. iney

duced into crude oil. would unite

sulphide, which can easily be re
moved from the oil. After a
weary search Frankforter found
what he was looking for.
By passing hydrogen over red
hot wires and then into crude oil,
chemical union with sulphur was
hastened and made more thoro.
Larger laboratory plants were
constructed. Omaha, Lincoln and
Council Bluffs men became inter
ested in the discovery, formed the
Frankforter Oil Process company.
Inc., and built a plant on the
Mona-Motor Oil company grounda
in East Omaha. Then patents
were obtained.
According to Mr. Ginsberg, the
less the sulphur content the bet
ter the oil or gasoline. The Frank
forter process has reduced the
sulphur content to as low as one
twentieth of 1 percent. The ex
pense is greatly reduced and the
process can be used on any kind
of oil, according to Professor
Frankforter.
Company officials plan to in
stall the process in oil refineries
in this and other countries and
collect royalties for its use. One
of the largest oil companies in
the world has requested informa
tion regarding the process, with
an apparent intention of offering
to buy it outright.

The great World Power Coufcieuce at Berliu lud just
concluded. Leading power men of the United States
impatiently awaited its news. But, another important
International Electro-technical Congress was to open
the next day at Copenhagen.
The editor oi Power had to cover both events ; : ; but
his readers mustn't lose out. Boarding a huge Lufthansa
Monoplane, he typed out the story of the Berlin Con
ference while soaring 5,000 feet above the Baltic Sea.
That same evening at Copenhagen, he shot the news
via cable to his waiting publication.
Fast work? Certainly! There are many times when
speed, high-pressure, quick initiative are necessary in
procuring vital news for McGraw-Hill's 600,000 read
ers. And, just as often, there are subjects which
require long, careful search and research.
Between the covers of the McGraw-Hill journal cov
ering your chosen field, you will get a new vision of
industry at work ... an invaluable background to use
later on, when you enter business yourself. McGraw
