At the last report meeting Fri

MUSEUM RECEIVES
EXHIBIT SPECIMENS
Mrs. S. R. McKelvie has pre
sented the university museum in
Morrill hall with several speci
mens for exhibit. A large, elab
orately carved teakwood bench
which was made in Japan is one
of the gifts. There are also two
large cabinets for specimens: a
mounted golden eagle with a wing
spread of nearly 6 feet; an Indian
squaw saddle; some imbedded cal
cite crystals, and many other ob
jects which fit into the museum
collections.

dra of the conservation division

Bertrand Schultz, field man for the
museum might know; and finally
Schultz though Dr. E. H. Barbour
of the museum might know. It ap
peared the "cat tracks" would go
unsolved, and no one would give an
opinion on such a doubtful venture
Thursday Schultz took a chisel
and hammer to find, once and for
all, if the curb might be cement
He hammered; a chunk broke
away, and showed a pink color.
That proved it to be sandstone and
set its age of formation in prems
toric times. Just how long these
footprints have been waiting to be
discovered is not known. Carl
Fisher, in the city engineer's office
finds that this particular section of
curbing was laid in 1888 by the
contracting firm of Stout and
Buckstaff. During street renova
tion work it may have bcn moved
or turned around.
Geologists, with professional re
ticence, translate geologic time
into years only after a lot of urg
ing. They believe the stone came
from the Lyons sandstone quarries
in Larimer county, Colorado. That
stone is fine grained and varies in
color from light buff to red. Geo
graphically, such a stone fits into
the Colorado region. Geologically,
the stone probably came from the
Permian division in the very late
Paleozoic era or the basal part of
the Mesozoic'era, which were form
ed about 225,000,000 years ago.
In that prehistoric time, it is ex
plained, much of the earth's sur
face was under water, and the
Rocky mountains were islands in
the vast oceans. Fine sand lay
along the island beaches. The salamander-like
animal which makes
the curbstone walked along the
soft sand. Then the sun beat down
and hardened the mold. Later
more sand formed on top and
eventually there was sandstone.
When mill workers split the slab it
broke along the line of age formation.
Museum authorities were at a
loss to know why the tracks and
bulges behind them should be evi
dent when the rest of the stone
had split so smoothly. Schultz
chiseled away an extra chunk of

that to mean that the stone had
hardened after the tracks were
made, then other stone had filled

has been a Lincoln curbstone, rain,
weather, and wear have taken
away the top coating and the
tracks now show plainly on the
surface.
So this ancient record of prehis
toric life has been preserved on a
modern paved street where balloon

Last year Johnson was made asso
ciate editor of the Prairie Schooner
magazine and was on the editorial
staff of the Awgwan. His stories
and articles have appeared in the
"Scholastic" magazine. Present
Day American Literature, and the
Omaha World-Herald.
West is a junior in the college of
law, and was graduated as a Phi

arts and sciences last June. Before
entering the college of law he be
came a member of Delta Sigma
Rho, debate fraternity, Pi Mu Ep
silon, honorary mathematics fra
ternity, and Sigma Upsilon, liter
ary society.
Whitman is now in his third year
in the college of law at tno uni
versity. He received nis A. B. de
gree from the iveorasKa aiate
Teachers College at Wayne, for
two years he was a teacher of his
tory in the Chadron high school;
and he studied one summer of law
at Northwestern university. He
has been awarded a tuition scholar
ship from the university law col
lege, and now holds a Jefferson H.
Broady scholarship there.
These five men will compete De-
fore the state committee which will
name two men to represent the dis
trict. The district committee will
choose four men to enter Oxford
university in 1935. Those on the
university committee this year
were: Dr. C. H. Oldfather, Dr. E.

RUST DESCRIBES
FORM OF GALAXY
TO PHYSICS CLUB
(Continued from Page 1.)
as being of flat cylindrical or cart
wheel shape. This cart wheel, is
the center of the galaxy and con
tains some 700,000 million stars.
Of this group the sun la only an
average member, but its nearness
to the earth emphasizes its size.
The earth In turn is but a moon or
satellite of the nun.
On either side of the milky way
are 50 globular clusters or star
clouds, symmetrically arranged,
which constitute the rest of the
galaxy.
Using figures which he ex
plained are necessarily somewhat
hypothetical Mr. Rust stated that
the diameter of the galaxy is 200,
000 light years and its thickness
Is 60,000 light years. To convey a
conception of distance in space, bo
used two analogies. In the first he
stated that it would take a train,
traveling 60 mles an hour, 57 mil
lion years to reach the nearest
star, Alpha Centaurl, which is but
for and a half light years away.
In his second comparison, Mr.
Rust calculated that two pounds of
spider web would be necessary to
encircle the earth, 25,000 miles in
circumference, while a million tons
of the same kind of web would be
required to reach to Alpha Cen
taurl. This distance to tho nearest
star is about 1.500,000 of the dis
tance across the galaxy.
Mr. Rust further stated that
there are probably a limitless
number of galaxies in space sim
ilar to the one of which the solar
system is a member. Professor Col
lins, who took part in the discus
sion that followed Mr. Rust's talk,
postulated the arrangement of
those numerous galaxies into super
galaxies.
Judging from Friday night's
turnout of about 30, President
Heater declared that the new club
is a definite success. This group,
which met and organized on Oct.
19, was formed for the purpose of
cringing together all those inter
ested in physics to hear discussions
on scientific matters. An interest
(n physics Is the only requisite for
belonging to tho club and new
members will be welcome at the
next meeting on Nov. 10, Heater
stated.

selves to a new outlook. Dr. Pauck
Indicated that this difficulty which
foreign students have In Minder,

lustration of the mental attitude
that causes international misun
