Jays Orthopedist Hugo Keim of Manhattan's Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center: "If you believe in evolution as I do, then you can trace all of our lower back problems to the time when the first hominid stood erect. If you're a creationist, you can look at it this...
...actual physical examination begins even before the patient crawls onto the examining table. Says Columbia's Keim: "I like to watch the patient undress, see how he moves, sits, stands." The doctor may ask the patient to perform various exercises -walking on heels and tiptoes, bending from the waist, twisting, reaching as high as possible with the hands.

Oh, by the way, Princeton won the Easterns that year...
Friday's line-up sports the most participation by Harvard swimmers. Four men will race in the 100-yard backstroke event--O'Connell, Cooper, Wolf and Dunean Pyle. Later in the day, Keim swims the 100-yard butterfly just before Fullerton takes to the water in the 100-yard breaststroke competition...
