Honolulu Pair Hike
Through Haleakals

A feat which few if any of the many
campers and mixers who have visited
Maui have duplicated was accomplish
ed last week by Mr.. and Mrs. Horace
Reynolds, when they hiked from Ma
kawao up to the top of Haleakala,
through the crater and down through
Kaupo gap. Mr.. and Mrs. Reynolds
are experienced campers and carried
their equipment on their backs. Mrs.
Reynolds load was II pounds, her
husbands SO. They camped on the
way, spending two days and nights at
the rest house. Two hours were spent
in making the descent into the crater,
and two nights We're spent in the
crater. One of the discoveries they
made was that the excessive dry sea-
son has caused the spring in the
crater to dry up. The descent was
made through Kaupo gap, which Mrs.
Reynolds declared was one of the
most beautiful spots she has ever
witnessed.

lege and four years in the medical
school.
The medical colleges are now re-
celYing men after three years of col
lege work, instead of four, which
shortens the program one year. Salts

in the medical college is counted as
the fourth year in the College of Ha-
wall and accordingly a regular bachel-
or's degree is granted at that time.
1t will be- to the advantage of local
young men looking forward 20 the
medical profession to attend the Col
lege of Hawaii for three years. tax

going to a mainland medical college.
The saving in expense will b. con-
siderable and the training will be
practically the same as in any other
institution.
Whether or not a Medical College

templated is not yet announced. In
due time such a development may
come about.
