''It is impossible for the Department of
Public Health 10 take care of the grip
cases." he said. I'VE can't treat IL as a
contagious disease, for II isn't one. OF
course, there are certain secTetions Of the
nose and mouth that make the disease
communicable, and that Is why we say
what We do about sneezing, splitting and
so on. But these acts communicate other
diseases beside grip.
Grip is an ailment that has many COM
plications. We can't take the patient off
to hospital for contagious disease, and
IL is necessary for he patient to have
medical attention. Grip never is dangerous
IL a doctor Is called in right away. The
danger lies in the neglect of it or not
knowing what to do or doing the wrong
thing.

THE PREVAILING EVIL

Under the prevailing crowded
conditions of our tennis courts II
is hardly fair for some of the stu
dents to play 1.-The hog" Certain OF
our enthusiastic tennis sharks seem
loath to allow the other members
of the club to loosen up at all.
Some of the members seem de-
cidedly afraid that they will not
get their fifty cents worth while
the season lasts But If some OF
members act so greedy as to mon
opolize the courts all the time, we
can easily see that the rest OF the
members will also lose on their in
vestment.
We we'll realize that we should
have more courts to accommodate
the players, but as this cannot be
had let us use what we have to the
best advantage. If the members
would make it rule not to play
more than three sets in succession
when other members are waiting
to play, then there would be plenty
of time for all.
