ELSCHEID. GETTYSBURG
fULLBACK. HAS TYPHOID
Former Technical High School Athlete
Believed to Have Contracted Dis
ease While at Lehigh University
Before Entering Pa. College

Gettysburg, Oct 24-With the criti-
cal illness of Elseheid, the star full
back on the Gettysburg College foot
fever epidemic at Lehigh University is
being felt here. The big player is be-
lieved to have contracted the disease
at the Bethlehem school before he
came TO Gettysburg.
Between fifty and sixty students at
Lehigh have fallen victims to the dis
ease, and two have died, the second,
Warren Hem, dying in the Allentown
Hospital ON Thursday. Elseheid, who
is from Harrisburg and formerly Il
star athlete at the Technical High
school, enrolled at Lehigh at the open
ing of the term in September but, n
few days later, decided to change and
came to Gettysburg.
His prowess ON the football field was
at once seen and he made a position on
the regular team without any trouble.
He played in several games and was al
ways a tower of strength, gaining
ground rapidly. His work in the AL
bright game was especially worthy of
note. Shortly afterward he was taken
i'll and removed to Harrisburg.
He has developed typhoid fever and,
allowing for the time it takes the dis
ease to mature, evidently received the
germs during his short stay at South
Bethlehem. His father was IN Gettys-
burg Thursday and said his son was in
critical condition, being deirous a
large part of the time. The father re-
mo al all ,e L.. l.
their home in Harrisburg.
1t is said the epidemic at Lehigh
began through infection that came from
the place of Polish farmer, who fur
nished milk to the school. where condi-
tions were found to be in abominable
shape. The inspectors found the putre-
flying carcass of horse near the baln,
being eaten up by chickens. The drain
age led into stream at point below
which the farmer washed his milk cans.

paign for more members which ends

Letting the work. Cards will be sent
10 persons who are non attendants of
the Sabbath school inviting them To

oil members will be in their places To
make the attendance June % the
largest in the history Of the school.
The regular annual picnic will BE-
held ON the fourth Of July at Rus
sells grove. Floats will be ready in
the morning to convey the children
and grown-ups TO the grounds and il
is requested that every member keep
in mind the day. The friends who
have conveyances are invited Ia
spend the day with us. Any extra
room ON the floats may be occupied
by friends.
