Jet Frequency Prompts Poultry to Lay Eggs
, By Jerry Lamberson
Turkeys might hesitate to stick out their necks for an ax,
but there is no waiting for the turkey to crane his neck into
a special cylinder when lured by high frequency.
Such has been the case at the University poultry depart
ment where they used this method to lessen the period of
broodiness of poultry. The research project was conducted by
D. Jeannoutot, graduate student, who went to the University
of Wisconsin recently, and Dr. J. L. Adams, chairman of the
poultry husbandry department.
No Eggs
Broodiness is a stage m
poultry when the hens do not
lay eggs. Such a stage may
be brought on by many dif
ferent effects and may occur
occasionally or quite f r e-
quently. Under natural condi
tions it may take two to three
weeks or longer to get over
the broody condition.
The two started the project
when they decided that noise,
the most bothersome feature
of jet aircraft, might open
the door in such a research
project. Reports from other
Universities that broody hens
seemed to return to produc
tion after being exposed to
jet sound, urged them to try
it.
Dr. Adams said that the
high pitched sound used in
the project would deafen any
human being. However it has
no such effects on poultry, he
said.
A twelve inch coaxial hi
fidelity speaker is placed in
the bottom of a cylinder
which has a depth of 16 to
24 inches. The sound used on
this speaker was picked up
by a tape recorder as a jet
was flying over at low alti
tude, he said.
Three Inch Hole
A three-inch hole was
placed in the top of the cylin
der to allow the placing of a
turkey head inside. Each in
dividual hen given this test
was then subjected to a
Rooms Available
For Union Meets
The Student Union has
opened room reservations for
organizations that wish to
hold weekly meetings in the
Union during second semes
ter. Allen Bennett, ' managing
director of the Union, said
that the largest number of
organizations attempt to
schedule meetings at 5 p.m.
and 7 p.m. on Tuesdays and
Thursdays.
Bennett recommended that
organizations eliminate the
bottleneck by taking advan
tage of the "abundance of
unused space at other times
such as 5 and 7 p.m. on Mon
day, Wednesday and Friday.
Facilities for dinner meet
ings such as banquets, par
ties, dinner-dances and con
ferences may be obtained by
contacting the food service
department, Bennett added.
sound up to 135 decibels for
four minutes.
For every two broody birds
treated in the research ex
periment, one was not treat
ed and all were kept under
the same conditions following
the experiment to terminate
the length of broodiness.
Birds subjected to this test
were usually over their
broodiness in two or three
days, Adams said. Such a
method established in a large
flock might save the owner
several dollars a year by in
creased production, he said.
Previous to this, methods of
progesterone, a drug, and
broody coops were used to
decrease the period of broodi
ness, but neither were as ef
fective as the sound method,
he said.

The turkey being held by Dr. J. L.

bandry department, is being lured into a

operation is used to get poultry through
the brooding period in which hens do not
lay eggs.
Council Counts 50 Organizations
Yet Remaining in Poor Standing
Some 50 organizations still
remain in bad standing with
Student Council, according to
Steve Gage, chairman of the
activities committee.
Gage noted that several at
tempts have been made by
the Council to contact these
organizations but the job is
almost "impossible", in that
they have not met the re
quirements and there
fore there is no way of know
ing anyone who belongs to the
organizations. The require
ments are:
Seven Requirements
1 A constitution on file
with the administration.
2. A constitution on file
with the Student Council.
3. An activities report on
file at Council office.
4. Funds located with the
Administration.
4. An officers list on file at
Administration.
6. An officers list on file at
the Council office.
7. A members list on file at
the Council office.
The following is a list of
the organizations still in bad

requirements still unfullfiled.

Scholarships
Given to NU
A $1,000 biennial scholar
ship for undergraduate archi
tecture students has been
granted to the University by
Clark and Enersen, Lincoln
architectural firm.
Given through the Univer
sity Foundation, the scholar
ship will be awarded on the
basis of demonstrated talent,
accomplishment and prom
ise, according to Professor
Linus Burr Smith, chairman
of the department of agricul
ture. "Nebraska,' said Prof.
Smith," now becomes one of
the few schools in the United
States that can offer its tal
ented undergraduates the
chance to broaden their back
grounds through travel."
"The grant is thus not only
of direct benefit to the stu
dent, but also the prestige of
the University," he added.
Sometime before spring
vacation, applicants will be
given the opportunity to sub
mit a proposed itinerary out
side the United States, pref
erably including Europe.
After a two-day competi
tion, the results will be an
nounced by a jury of three
selected by Prof. Smith.

Dark Horse Theater
Started by Nebraskans
Proof of Nebraska's talent has been displayed by the
Dark Horse Players, Ltd. , . ....
The Dark Horse Players, Ltd. is a professional theater
group in Estes Park, Colo., which was founded by a group of
Nebraskans.
The organization of the
theater is due largely to the
efforts Frederick (Jerry)
Carlson and Mrs. Arvln
Ouist. formerly Doris Ann
Growcock. Other board direc
tors are Mr. Arvin Quist,
Stephaney Sherdiman, and
Joe Hill. All have attended
college in Nebraska.
In 1959 the group leased a
theater and bought the prop'
erty of an unsuccessful the
ater group in Estes Park. A
laree summer cabin was
rented to house the act
ors and staff who do their
own house-keeping. Professor
and Mrs. Max W h i 1 1 a k e r
lived with the theater mem
bers last year. Prof. Whitt
aker is a former member of
the University speech and
dramatic art faculty.
University students who
have belonged to the Dark
Horse Theater are Zeff Bern

Because the Rag felt that
they had not even posed

Entry blanks and instruc

deadline for entries has been
set as Feb. 27.
