Housebuilding From
Earth Seen Coming
Cleveland, O. (U.P.) That
Little Old Sod Shanty" in the
western song may not be so far
fetched, or as indicative of pov
erty, as some might think.
Engineers who attended
meeting of the American So
ciety for Testing Materials here
were told by Prof. E. J. Kilcaw
lcy of Renesselaer Polytechnic
Institute that "housebuilding
from earth will come as soon
as engineers work up standards
of construction practices."
Kilcawley pointed out that
earth construction offers one of
the few adequate means of pro
tection against radiation in case
of atomic attack.
Although dirt is man's oldest
construction material, Kilcawley
said it is the one engineers have
known the least about.
Formerly, if dirt was to be
used in a dam as a river or canal
embankment, it was necessary
to call in a soil expert who
guessed whether the particular
earth to be used would stand
up.
However, instruments are now
available which show accurately
what a specific sample of earth
may lack in durability and, if it
isn't just right, ingredients may
be added to "stabilize it," as they
say in the trade.

teams.
"I won't make an official
statement until I confer with uni
versity officials," said Rupp
when contacted at Plkeville, Ky.
University officials on the
campus refused comment, and
university president Dr. Herman
L. Donovan was out of town and
could not be reached.
The accusations were aimed
at Rupp Tuesday In New York
by Judge Saul S. Streit in a
statement made at the sentenc
ing of former Kentucky players
Ralph Beard, Alex Groza and
Dale Barnstable. The three play
ers were given suspended sen
tences on game fixing charges as
the judge aimed his heaviest
criticism at Rupp.
Streit charged tht Rupp open
ly discussed the gambling "point
spread" on games with his play
ers, once bawled them out when
a friend lost a bet ,and at least
once phoned a "notorious book
maker" to find out a point
spread. "The undisputed facts are that
he, Rupp, aided and abetted in
the immoral subsidization of the
players," said Streit. "With his
knowledge, the charges in his
care were openly explained,
their physical welfare was ne
glected, and he utterly failed to
build their characters or Install
any morals Indeed if he did not
impair them."
JOKE BACKFIRES

Wolfrum, 12, joked with the Lin-

"watch the rough stuff." About
15 minutes later he was hospital
ized for injuries received when
he was hit in the head by an

Girls Distracting In Civil War Days
New York (U.R) Billy
Yank, the GI of Civil War days,
found girls distracting too. A
soldier's diary quoted in "The
Life of Billy Yank: The Com
mon Soldier of the Union," by
notes, "A pair of Secesh (Seces
sion) damsels promenade up and
down the island opposite our
post ... I call Scrgt. Wakefield
down to the river bank and he
goes into ecstasies at the sight
of the fair ones, and sighs, 'oh

Like GI Joe, Billy Yank some
times took a dim view of offi
cers: "1 am well convinced in
my own mind that had it not
been for officers this war would
have ended long ago."
However, the attitude toward
the Army Medical Corps has
changed considerably nowadays.
Dr. Wiley, after studying thou'
sands of letters and diaries,
found that an all-too-prevalent
attitude was: "If a fellow has
