Eliot House is not the only offender among the Houses, but it is the worst. The tutorial staff of the House is getting free rooms and free dinners in return for a service which it makes not the slightest attempt to fulfill.

...Louis' encephalitis epidemic will indeed make that city famed in medical history. The epidemic, which began to spread in late July, has stricken more than 900 people, has killed 173, is the worst of its kind in the U. S. to date. Fourteen died last week, but U. S. Public Health Service investigators, three of whom anonymously permitted themselves to be bitten by mosquitoes which had bitten patients thought the St. Louis epidemic was on the decline.
