VETERANS OF CAMPUS
URGED TO FILE CLAIMS
Campus veterans of the ' World
war who are eligible to receive
federal adjusted service compensa
tion and who intend to avail them
selves of their privilege, may ob
tain information and the necessary
forma at the University B. O. T.
C. office, the military department
announces.
The University military depart
ment has recently received an of
ficial announcement requesting that
all eligible veterans be urged to act
upon their bonus privilege. Those
intending t' avail themselves of
the compensation are urged to make
application now. Those not intend
ing to do so should notify the bon
us administration department to
that effect, according to the an
nouncement. It Ts imperative both
from the standpoint of economy in
administration and expediency for
the veteran that applications be
filed promptly, it is pointed out.
FORMER STUDENT DOES
Program is Arranged for
Visiting Delegates
Locating ore deposits by means
of radio is the latest possibility de
veloped in the mining field. Ar
thur Erikson, geology major, spent
his summer as an operator in this
pioneering work which is fact be
coming a commercial process.
By means of the radio waves,
ore bodies under favorable condi
tions can be located at the depth
of 2000 feet. If surface geologic
conditions do not indicate the lo
cation of ore deposits, the use of
radio waves will successfully deter
mine the location of ore deposits
at a great depth.
An article of general nature deal
ing with the work done last sum
mer appeared in the Engineering
and Mining Journal-Press of No
vember 8. The process is not made
public in all its details, but it de
scribes broadly the work of the
camp. Pictures of Erikson at work
illustrate the article. The article
was written by Wilbur C. Riley,
one of the members of the camp.
The work was carried on at Jerome,
Arizona, by the United Verde Cop
per company.
The process, known as the Chil
son process, operates as follows:
“Contact is made upon sulphide
ores having electrical continuity,
with electrical energy of the proper
frequency impressed uphn the same
in such a manner that all connect
ing ores act in unison with the
transmitter and as a part of the
transmitter. A receiver, then oper
ated in proximity to the ore thus
affected, will indicate their loca
tion, through the medium of the
magnetic field caused by the ores
acting as part of the transmitter.”
A transmitter which radiates the
proper current at the desired fre
quency and a radio receiver of spe
cial design which records the audi
bility of the signal are used. Thirty
or forty square miles may be cov
ered without moving the trans
mitter, if the field is not highly
mineralized.
During the summer, copper re
gions conceded to be barren were
located by this method. Not only
has it this value of locating deep
deposits but this method provides
an accurate check for the geologist
in covering his field.
Dr. Edwin T. Hodge, professor
of economic geology, feels assured
that the process is not nebulous and
that it will be employed widely in
the mining industry.
Erikson modestly disclaims any
credit for participating in the use
of this original invention, giving
credit to his brother who invented
it. However, he is one of the
three men who know the full de
tails of the process and the methods
of its operatiom.
CLUB TO BE ORGANIZED
BY MEMBERS OF SQUAD
Members of the football squad
who haven’t played in any varsity
games, state that they are to or
ganize a club. It will be remem
bered that last year there was sueh
an organization for the men who
warmed the bench during the en
tire season. The club last year was
called “Sorrel Club” and all mem
bers of the squad were eligible.
Just as soon as a man played in any
varsity game he automatically be
came a honorary member of the or
ganization.
The club last year gave a dance
at which the entire squad was pres
ent. The club will organize now
that this football season has been
completed, but will organize under
a different name.

Pacific Division Organized
At Berkeley Meeting
Dr. George Rebec, dean of the
graduate school, was elected presi
dent of the Pacific division of the
American Philosophical society for

that society held at Berkeley dur

Rebec, Dr. Fritz Marti, and Kerby
Miller, all of t'he philosophy de
partment, attended this conference.
The Pacific division was organ

sentatives present from the Uni
versity of California, Stanford, the
southern branch of the University
of California, the University of
Southern California, Occidental col
lege, Mills college, the University
of Utah, the University of Oregon,
the University of Washington, and
St. Martin's college in Washington.
The group numbered some twenty
five members of the philosophy de
partments of these various (insti
tutions.
The formal sessions began Friday
morning with the reading and dis
cussion of several papers. In the
afternoon, following luncheon at
the Faculty club, a business meet
ing was held at which a definite
organization was effected and of
ficers elected. Besides the elec
tion of Dr. Rebec as president, C.
■J. Ducasse of Washington was
elected secretary-treasurer, and an
executive council of seven mem
bers was formed, consisting of the
president, secretary-treasurer, and
five representatives from different
institutions represented.
■Later in the, afternoon, the wo
men of the Berkeley Philosophy
staff, assisted by others, gave a
tea in honor of the association. The
dinner in the evening was followed
by what hereafter will be the an
nual presidential address. This was
delivered by Professor Harold
Chapman Brown, of Stanford. Sat
urday morning was taken up with
the presentation of papers, among
which was one given by Dr. Marti,
dealing with the logic of the de
velopment of .stages in religious ex
perience.
“The new organization repre
sents,” said Dr. Rebec, “a distinct
step forward, in the organization,
not only of the Pacific region phil
osophy, but of Pacific region schol
arship in general. It is one step
forward in the determination of
Far Western men and institutions
to do all possible to overcome the

drawbacks dt isolation. At this
Berkeley session it was the unani
mous testimony of members that
the meeting had been intensely
stimulating, and that the personal
contacts were not alone delightful
but were highly helpful.”
DR. PHILIP A. PARSONS
AUTHOR OF TEXT-BOOK
The publication of “An Introduc
tion to Modern Social Problems”
by Dr. Philip A. Parsons, director
of the Portland school of social
work of the University of Oregon,
is announced for publication this
month by Alfred A. Knopf, New
YoTk.
The body of the work is devoted
to an analysis of the causes of the
many scoial problems that beset
mankind on every side. Dr. Par
sons shows that from the maze
of philanthropic endeavors of the
past and present there is slowly
emerging a definite, Ictoorfldnatied,,
and concerted movement for social
betterment. Designed primarily as
a collegiate text-book for a course
in applied sociology, it sets forth
in non-technical language the orig
in, nature, and development of the
social problem.

PITTSBURG UNIVERSITY
TO HAVE SKYSCRAPER
Above the smoke and cinders of
Pittsburg will rise the tallest uni
versity in the world. According to
a report by John G. Bowman, chan
cellor of the University of Pitts
burg, the proposed ‘ ‘ Cathedral of
Learning” will do its skyscraping
from the vantage point of 52
stories, which celestial privilege
will cost the trustees and alumni
$10,000,000. The new home of the
University of Pittsburg, planned
to accomodate 12,000, will be Gothic
in style, and built of white Ken
tucky limestone. It will tower 680
feet, and will be equipped with 16
high speed elevators. It is report
ed that professors have all signed
a pledge not to drop students from
the classrooms.
