CarbOnated Drinks
Free From Bacteria

Washington. D. c., June ll.-Manu-
facturers Of bottled carbonated bev-
erages are cooperating with health
authorities in campaign to warn
vacationists and other travellers Of
the danger of water-bone diseases,
such as typhoid. This warning, which
statistics show applies to IS per cent
Of the streams and lakes in the Uni
ted States, has been emphasized by
the pollution Of drinking water sup
plies in the areas flooded by the
Mississippi river and its tributaries.
mo drinking water can be regard
ed as pure and safe, no matter how
clear and sparkling 1t may appear
says DR.. Max Levine. Of Iowa State
college, one Of the worlds foremost
recommends the use Of bottled car
donated beverages "because Of the
germicidal effect of their carbonic
gas content"
Sounding of similar warning DR..
Lulu Hunt Peters Of San Francisco,
another noted authority, says:
IF you ere in place where there
may be doubtful or DANGEROUS
water supply, use some good Grade Of
bottled carbonated soft drinks. In
series sOf studies On carbonated
beverages which were bottled by
reliable houses, it was found these
carbonated drinks bwere quite free
from bacteria" lib sg
Drs. Levine and Peters call atten-
ton to q report by scientists at ia

have been specially adapted to it.
They are SO powerful that they stop
the car quickly and smoothly. no

work so easily that the lightest touch
of woman's foot is sufficient.
Next to their ability to stop the
car is the infrequcncy with whic
they require adjustment. An auto

porated into the unit containing the
master cylinder and the system is
automatically kept full of H~uid at

YALE TICKET IS
A PROBLEM

Finding needle In a f1aystack
or driving square plug in a
round hole are no more problems
than the Yale athletic authorities
have in their annual task of de-
Gliding how best to divide 44,S25
seats at Yale Bowl among 1929
graduates and undergraduates. who
in theory are entitled to anywhere
from one to 20 tickets for seats
during q football game.
Mortimer N. BrucIEner, New
York banker, Is head of the
committee that annually engages
the problem, and the committee
has decided that great restric-
ti0ns must still hedge the tickets
In order to give every one a
chance to see the football game.
But the committee thinks there
Is hope for more tickets without
enlarging the bowl.
There are only 1856 seats be-
tween the goal lines on YaIe's side
Of the bowl. Behind the goals are
31l24S seats Yale has the right to
use, but who wants to sit behind
the goal posts? When another foot.
bali season is under way, Yale prob.
ably win have $500 undergraduates
and about $4,000 graduates to pro.
vide with seats in the bowl.
