JORGENSEN REVEALS

Speaker at Physics Meeting
Reviews History of
Phenomena.
Donald L. JoTgTnsen. graduate

ffi own Geiger counter or cosm c
ray measuring device in the course
til his talk on this type of ray
phenomenon at the meeting of the
fhysics club Friday evening feb.

the last neveral months. Mr. Jot
genscn. an assistant in the physics
department, has working on
the cosmic ray PParatu nCpn
ducting research along this line.
Opening his address by review
ing the history of cosmic rays the
speaker will discuss several of the
early experiments earned on by
the pioneer, in this field of re
search In bis canvass of the scant
body ol knowledge that physicists
have been able to build up con
cerning this mysterious Ib"
enon, Mr. J orgenwen plans to ex
plain the part that Uie recent ven
ture! into the tral0Hf,h7heat1'
played in the discovery that the
intensity of cosmic rays la mag
ntlied with increase, in altitude.
This he pointed out. indicates that
the rays are forms of energy and
that they are probably pitied
from the stellar bodies and are
dissipated as they get farther from
their source. .
Mr. Jorgensens set-up of tnt
Geiger counter includes a complex
arrangement of vacuumized glass
tubes containing a special gas and
an appropriate drier. Using a cur
rent of 31500 volts, the gas will be
charged. The cosmic rays pierce
the gas at about one and half sec
ond interval and at the same time
allow some of the current to follow
them thru and click on a sounder.
The clicks arc amplified by a loud
speaker and wil be easily heard by
the listeners. Jorgenwn explained.
The only conception thus obtained
of the size ol these rays is the
number that pass thru a given
minute opening of known area In
a certain length of time.
Stating that knowledge at cos
mic rays is in its Infancy. Mr. Jor

WILL BE HELD IN
E
Ramsey, Alumni Secretary,
Will Map Organization
Plans for Seniors.
Responding to the lead taken by
the Student Council, senior class
leaders Thursday outlined plans
for the mass meeting of all senior
class members, to be held on Wed
nesday, Feb. 27. Due to the added
interest taken in the Council's
move, the meeting place has been
changed from the Council rooms to
Social Science auditorium to ac
comodate a larger crowd.
Ray Ramsey, secretary of the
university alumni association, has
been secured to outline his plan for
senior class organization and tc
make suggestions concerning other
plans presented. "We have only
two senior class meetings each
year," Ramsay declared, "one is
freshman convocation and the
other senior commencement. Grad
uates associate themselves -with
their class more than ever after
they are out of school, and any
move to make them "class con
scious" while they are still in
school will make their alumni a
more compact body."
Lee Young, chairman of the
council committee, urged all mem
bers to attend the meeting. "Every
member present who wishes may
offer suggestions in the meeting."
Young stated, "which will take up
plans for organizing the senior
class as a unit rather than so
many individuals."
Action followed the motion of
Young to organize the senior class
and grant powers to the senior
class president to weld the class
together. The committee appointed
by Council president Jack Fischer
planned the meeting.

Of Campus Intelligentsia Turns to
Politeness, Humor, Jazz, and the Like
BY LORAIN E CAMPBELL.
Now that the period of first semester exaiuinations has
become, for the most pail, a vapuc nightmare several questions
might be asked the student body at large; Are women suffi
ciently polite? Are lull sessions becoming more elevated"
Arc vr still a jazz generation?

Informal interviews obtained
among the various campus rendez
vous indicate the following conclu
sions: Women are not sufficiently cour
teous. Back in tbe university days
when men were the stronger sex,
a great deal more courtesy was
shown than in our modem era. One
coed was seen sipping a fellow's

Dr. Walton Author
Of Unique Text for
Psychology Course
Dr. Walton of the psychology
department is the author of a
unique text for the course in busi
ness psychology this semester.
Noticing over a period of four or
five years that students vary
greatly in the efficiency with
which they take notes, and that the
illustration of a point is noted
with interest, but the point itself
lost, Dr. Walton has prepared a
notebook which he hopes will cover
this deficiency. It consists of a
"detailed outline of the instructor's
lectures with complete references
from which lectures were taken,
assignments for the entire semes
ter, and an appendix which con
tains lists of topics and instruc
tions for term papers."
The lectures form the theoretical
and the questions, the practical
parts - the course. The books
will I 'V J in from time to time
and t .. 1 in order to determine
the . of the student's diffi
culties. When directions have been
followed according to the note
book, the student will have par
tially written his own textbook.

intr to Charles Hulac. retiring
