DORMITORY SUFFERS FROM MILD PTOMAINE POISONING Ptomaine poisoning, presumably caused by eating cold beef served at • the yesterday noon meal at the Men’s Dormitory, attacked about thirty of the students at midnight Thursday. The power plant was notified at once and the lights turned on. Dr. C. W. Southworth was quickly summoned and diagnosed the ailment of the suf ferers as a mild attack of ptomaine poisoning. Friday morning, however, with the exception of about ten men, all were able to attend their classes, and this morning Thaddeus Wentworth reports all well again. Loren Harvey, the dormitory cook, expresses the opinion that cold beef served at the noon meal was the cause of the trouble. To Max Sommers, a Freshman, much praise is given for his “first aid to the injured,” and the heroic man ner in which he visited each room in turn, admistering ginger tea and vari ous other hastily concocted incred ients.

The inter-fraternity council at the University of Washington is consider ing the passing of a law which will prohibit the pledging of men until their Sophomore year. According to official figures there are now 18,000 medical students in the country. In 1904 there were 24, 000. Harder courses of study are held largely responsible for this decrease. It is also a fact that each year sees a larger number of doctors attached permanently to hospitals. The Pan-Hellenic council at the University of Michigan has recently adopted some strict pledge rules. Only students registered in the uni versity will bo pledged, and no girls shall be initiated until they have earned 18 honor points in the univer sity or hiiye 15 hours advanced vredit.
