ard arises fom personal factors.
PnteaeAl hazards may be subdiyided
into s=.>-nel ard internal. This ex.

number and value. The internal ha1-
ards are much more numerous and
may be subdivided into nye classes.
These are: Spontaneous combustion.

machinery, the hazards incident to

dav, when the basketball team voiced
a protest against the holding up OF

ginning of the season, upon the as
surance that the SO would be repaid
them after the second game OF the
season. The money has not peeh
forthcoming up to date, despite many
requests.
In the meeting yesterday. when the
basketball team renewed It's request
for the money, a football man OF Two

had not received the money whlch us
members advanced two years ago.

position of an associated kennel club
show, to be composed OF, most like
ly, of the Newark, Plainheld, Della .

as q winter show, would very likely
not appeal to the Newark associa-
ton, but as Il summer show, there
is no reason why such an affair
should not meet with the commit
tees approval.
The show would undoubtedly be
held in a neutral city, such as Eliza

The proposition is fairly good
one for a summer show, and should
be open for discussion.
