Sunday morning dark with heavy showers and thunder and lightning. Same as Saturday morning. Listened to Prof. White talk on Calvin and have respect for him as a reformer. Then attended church and saw about 1500 students march to church in military fashion. Had dinner at Hanes home. Monday (March 22-1936) visited with Hanes and at 12.10 drove off for Fort Smith when I arrived at 7.30. Put up at Badger Hotel. President Walton Dean of College Professor Farley (Historian). Oran Crock Engineering Prof. Bolton Prof. White (Economics) Prof. O. M. Ball (Biology) has fruit plants and nuts, Prof. M. Francis (Veterinary Medicine) has fruit animals. The Comanchian faunas have their nearest relations with Western Africa, Madagascar, and Southern India. This is different from my earlier views - eastern Mediterranean affinities. See the two little maps on which I noted some of these facts; will place them later in my phiso- geographic maps.
