FIRES IN COAL MINES BURN
 FOR YEARS

SPRINGFIELD, H., Feb. 16.-Fires burning for years in coal mines, deep beneath the ground, are one of the unsolved problems of coal mining in Illinois
 Many of these fires, walled up years ago, recently have caused trouble in southern Illinois mines, according to Robert M. Medill, director of the State Department of Mines and Min erals.
 The Donk brothers mine at Collins vile, the North Mine of the Illinois and Indiana Coal Corporation at Witt, and several mines near Springfield have been compelled recently to seal LID portions of their workings to pre- vent the spread of these smoulderlng furnaces, which burn without stop ping in the hidden chambers under eround. One mine was ordered closed entirely.
 The fires start in the refuse which is left after the coal is dug and are caused by a process similar to spon- taneous combustion, according to MT, Medill. The miners call them "gob fires" from the word applied by coal diggers to the debris in the mine.
 They do not flare up in flame, but burn slowly, smouldering away for years until they eat themselves out or fuel. Chambers where these freS start become a mass of live red coals and must be sealed up to keep the air from them.
 The trouble is caused when a fire eats it's way through wall and thfeat- ems to break through into the mlhe workings, Some times the shoulder ing coals eat up the supporting coal pillars resulting in weakening the sup mort for the ground above.
 These fires cannot be eXtlngulsheo hv waters, MT. Medill stated. Water only makes them worse. It IS the characterization resulting from the mixing of water and the refuse that causes the original combustion. The only way to stop the fires is to re move the burning coals from the mine. Many such fires may be seen on slack piles on the surface in this sec tion of the state. These can be flood ed with water and extinguished, MT. Nedill stated.

BROADCASTENG STATION
 FOR IDAHO VARSITY

MOSCOW, Idaho, Feb. lG.-The department of electrical engineering of the College of Engineering of the University of Idaho, under tre di- rection of Assistant Professor M. A. Murray, is installing large radio broadcasting station, which will be combined with a privately oWne1 station in Moscow.
 It is believed that the station will be one of the largest and most com plete amateur stations of it's kind in the Northwest. The new station, which will have the call letters x r A N, will be equipped with two 50, watt transmitting tubes, giving suf- ficient power so that the station may be heard for a radius of several hundred miles during night sending, with a shorter radius for daytime work
 The antenna will be of the in verted L type, little more than 
 set, transformers and an auxiliary set will complete the equipment To obtain better reproduction, arrange ments are being made whereby the stage of the university auditorium will be enclosed with non-reflectlng drapes and sound walls, the music to be carried from there to the trans mitting set by a cable.
 It is planned to sent out concerts three times week, on Tuesday, Thursday and either Saturday or Sunday evenings. These concerts will include musical recitals by Univer- sity of Idaho students, concerts by the University Glee Club, orchestras and other groups, lectures and re- ports of all intercollegiate contests,

REAL ELEPHANT HUNT
 THRILLS ORECONIANS

CORVALLIS, Ore, Feb. 16.-An ele- phant hunt in Oregon is a spectacle witnessed near Arlington recently. It was not roundup of a strayed circus menagerie, either.
 Under the supervision of Dr. John B. HOrner, director of historical re- search of Oregon Agricultural College, party of students from the college and three high schools, went to the scene of the discovery of an elephant tusk on the Smythe brothers estate near Arlington, and on ridge of hardpan where the tusk had been found by D. w. Marshall, a sheep herd CT in 1920. The students dug brisk ly until they uncovered other frag- ments of tusk and bone of the prehis- toric mammal
 The find was in the neighborhood of two glacial boulders of granite weigh ing from ten to twenty tons each, which had been deposited by a gla- cier on a solid bed of lava. The bones were brought to the spot where they were found by the glacier, accord ing to Dr. Horner. The moraine in which they were found is exceedingly rich in bones of huge animal. Dr. Hor ner announced after the excavating work.
