Rooms Decorated And Refurnished In Infirmary Now Doctors Urge Students To Consult Them For Minor Ills “We believe that when a student who is sick conies to us, we have a better chance to show him how he has transgressed the laws of health than when he is well,” said Dr. Fred N. Miller, University physician, in speaking of the work of the health service. “Our aim is two-fold, gen erally speaking; to teach the stu dent the habits of health, and to take care of him when he is sick and get him well as quickly as pos sible; and that is not as simple as it sounds. “We hope to establish the prac tice of going to a doctor for minor ills, and if the student is convinced he has gained something by early consultation, he will keep it up after school life. We advise stu dents to consult a physician; -one trained in biology, physiology and other branches necessary to the practice of medicine, rather than someone who has theories on the care of the human body, but who does not know how the body is made and how it functions. “It is a discouraging thing to see so many educated people take up with fads that any scientist knows arc not based on fact. “People have been confused some what as to the conveniences in the infirmary,” said Dr. Miller, in speaking of it as the proper place for sick people. “For its size it is altogether adequate. The rooms were redecorated last year. Half of the beds are new, with kapok mattresses. The annex for com municable diseases is not the pest house used last year. “We do not allow visiting as For Your Table Yon buy the choicest cuts of meat and the best brands of canned v goods.

VllWWMAS Butter-Krust BREAI* y°stVf freely as some students would like, nor do we allow smoking in the infirmary, for most patients have something wrong with their noses and throats, which smoke irritates. We do not, however, make any pro hibitions to show our authority. Nothing is compulsory. A student is free to consult any physician down town; he does not have to go into the infirmary. We do not even send the contagious cases there; the state board of health attends to that. “We perform no operations, with the exception of sewing up minor wounds. We spend much time in diagnosis, whether the case is simple or complicated. “We require a complete examina tion of each incoming student and prescribe individual work for those who need it. We also change from the regular gymnasium classes to a special program anyone whom, we think, might have something wrong with him, and re-examine them every term in order to keep in touch with their progress.” There are thirteen beds in the infirmary, arid seven in the annex, with room for more. The charges of the health service are small; ten cents or so for medicine, one dollar for the largest size X-ray pictures, house calls one dollar during the day, and five dollars for night. The staff consists of there full time physicians and nurses; one half-time nurse and laboratory girl, also one full-time cook.

In days gone by, he was the dog of the campus, and now he is just one of the dogs. For many years Caesar has been meeting the boy who delivered the Emerald to the Kappa Sig house, and he was the first one to read the news. He has aljvays been a keen follower of sports, but most of all he hoped to see in the headlines his own name. It pleased the grand old dog of the campus to see his name in print, and, although his eyesight is not so good as it was when he read his first Emerald, he still can tell his own name when it appears in the paper. The biggest thorn in Caesar’s side is Eef, the Sigma Nu “dash-hound,” who is his next door neighbor. The first day thaf they chanced to meet they had a little disagreement, but this could have been overlooked by Caesar if Eef had not continued to annoy him. The first time that Eef’s name appeared in the paper Caesar just laughed it off, for he thought that this fame would be short lived. This was not the case, for Eef is stubborn and, like Caesar, loves to read about himself. Being the younger of the two, he has taken a more active part in college affairs; and, when this doesn’t get him into the limelight, he dashes in front of one of the leaping lizzies that infest the campus, escaping with a few minor injuries, but getting the de sired publicity. Caesar realizes that he has lost his school girl complexion, his win ning smile, and that “his best friends won’t tell him.” He can get the girl3 to vouch, however, that he still has a beautiful voice and al though he is getting old he can still sit up and beg for things that please his sweet tooth, the only real tooth EUGENE BUSINESS COLLEGE It’s A Good School.

Only two regulars, Hobson and Bliss, are lost from the organization of last spring, and new men coming up from the freshman ranks will miti gate their loss. Lettermen back are Bex Adolph, the big first sacker; Freddy West, infielder and pitcher; Arnie Kim inki, shortstop; Lynn Jones, third baseman; Frank Reinhart, the steady centerfielder; Fred Harrison, the slowball pitcher; Bay Edwards, the southpaw right fielder; Bill Baker, the kid pitcher, who broke in with a bang last spring; George Mim naugh, outfielder and catcher; and Bill Ashby, the steady right-handed flinger. This band, together with such promising sophomores as Dave Epps, outfielder; Cotter Gould, outfielder; Art Schoeni, southpaw pitcher; Don McCormick, infielder; Ira Woodie, catcher; Gordon Ridings, third base man; and Les Johnson, shortstop, assure a team capable of giving the islanders plenty of competition.
