their communities with the thorough
ness which normal conditions permit,
against the possibility OF time when

STUDENTS ARE GIVEN
TRAINING In POSTURE

AUSTIN, Nov. 2S.-The University
Of Texas is probably the only uni
versity in the South giving individual
corrective gymnastics to students
needing them, according to s. n. Eek
dahl, athletic instructor in charge,
under the supervision of the Univer-
sity Health Service. Approximately
165 cases were treated last year, and
So per cent Of this number showed
remarkable improvement.
The principle instruction is given
in posture work. The student stands
before full length mirror, and goes
through respiratory and similar ex-
ercises. He is thus able to see him
self 20 through the different exercises
and see his various faults. This mir
ror is useful in helping to cure flat
feet. according TO Eckdahl. Swedish
stall bars are used in benefiting curva-
ture of the spine. Among the cases
most frequently treated are fallen
arches, heart cases, sprains. breaks
and fractures. and nervous cases.
