Scarlet fever cases have developed
in two of the fraternity houses in con-
nection with the University of Chicago.
Hobart Edmonds has been a member
of one of these fraternity houses, but
having had scarlet fever, was allowed
to leave and is staying elsewhere. He
and two other students were the only
ones who had had the disease in this
particular fraternity house. There is
no epidemic and nothing serious is
looked forward to, but careful pre-
cautions are taken.
