...University second crew has not been doing satisfactory work lately. Thursday it defeated the Senior class crew over the 1 and 7-8 miles course, but it has been defeated by the Freshman crew in several brushes. Yesterday Ball rowed 3 instead of Gill, who has a sore hand. Today J. Lowell, who has been rowing at 5 on the Sophomore crew will report with the University crew squad and will be tried in the second boat...
...when there is fresh fallen or melting snow on the ground some kind of a rubber or overshoe is essential. I have yet to see a "water-proof" shoe which is water proof. Three-fourths of the men who consult the Medical Visitor for colds in the head, sore threats and coughs, do not properly protect their feet. M. H. BARLEY, Medical Visitor...
...What was true of that storm will probably be true of this one unless more care is taken to protect the body from cold and wet. From some ten years of observation I am convinced that wet feet are the most common cause of tonsillitis and other forms of sore throat. There is no "water-proof" shoe made that will keep the foot dry in deep snow, especially in melting snow and slush. As long as a man keeps moving there is little danger from wet feet, but to sit in a lecture room or elsewhere in that condition...
...other to turn it into frank veracity. The first editorial considers how the advice recently asked for from undergraduates about ways of improving courses might be given next time not by A and B men, but by their "alphabetically interior brothren." The second editorial espigates the Freshman, already sore with promiscuous good advice, and warns him not to make his life "a giddy wheel of irresponsibility with its centre in the Hub." It may be a personal prejudice but fancy seems to me more delightful when it plays about actual facts than when it cuts loose from them and becomes...
...students particularly desirous of keeping in perfect health it may be of interest to know that every snow-storm is followed by a marked increase in the number of cases of nasal colds, the various forms of sore throat, coughs, less frequently catarrhal disturbances of the intestinal tract, and occasionally more serious illness. This is probably largely due to the fact that comparatively few students wear rubbers or overshoes, and that it is impossible without such protection to walk in several inches of snow and keep the feet dry. Wet feet are probably more prolific of the above diseases than...
