a hard basketball game from the Mid

several substitutes, the Ithacans fell be-
hind in the first half, and that period
ended Is to in favor of the Navy.
With the help of Capt. London and the
regular guards. Ashmeade and Vandorf,
Cornell climbed steadily in the second
period, and a clever goal by Ashmeade
tied the score as the regular period
ended.
When the extra period of five minutes
was ordered Smith scored almost at once
for the Navy, and Brown followed for
Cornell, both goals being difficult. With
less than a minute to play, Brown got a
chance to try from the foul line, and
netted the ball nicely, giving the visitors

course, you cannot stand water that is
too cold and you will have to modify it
to suit your own needs But il you are
of average strength, then 1 would say
that as rule it is better to have the
water quite cold and stay in IL only a few
moments than to have 1t only moderately
warm and stay in it longer. The colder
water is more stimulating il you can
stand it. The colder 1t is, the more Wig

more powerful the effect upon the circu-

quickly. And. Of course, the water at a
moderate temperature will bring about a
less violent reaction.
AS to the shock of the cold bath. This
is purely the effect on the nerves of the
sudden contact Of the cold water. Even
when the bath is properly taken you will
feel this to a certain extent, but under
such conditions the shock will be
