College professors demand Woodring resign over plan for economic storm troops
A group of educators from thirty colleges urged President Roosevelt to remove Harry H. Woodring, assistant secretary of war, after a magazine article proposed organizing federal “economic storm troops” through the CCC. They argue the plan mimics Nazi methods and threatens civil liberty, urging dismissal if the administration persists.

Unusual Fossil Nests Found Near Admire Junction
A Kansas Academy of Science report by Prof. W. H. Schoene and Thomas Lenahan details 18,000 square feet of Browns ville limestone near Admire Junction where over 80 fossil nests, circular to oval in form, were exposed by a creek diversion. Each nest ranges from 2 feet to 5 and 18 feet in axes, lens shaped in cross section, with a convex upper surface. Fossil formation likely occurred in quiet water eddies within a bay or landlocked sea area during times when the Gulf of Mexico extended into the region. Field notes discuss several formation theories, with the authors leaning toward sediment deposition by eddies in clear water.
