Just why we call the two most
prominent and most dangerous Ven

have never understood; except it
be so that we may mention them in
society, and it is true that when
certain repulsive things are to be
mentioned among the elite, we have
to disguise them in some way to get
by, as taking castor oil with orange

but it gets the same results.
Now that so much publicity has
been given these evils of the hui
man race by the lay press and well
fare organizations, we do not hes
itate among educated people to
speak of them as venereal diseases.
With the public health workers and
doctors this class of diseases is
termed venereal diseases; so here
after we speak of them as veneral
diseases.
Because of the nature of the trouble
and secrecy usually accompanying it,
we have no date as to how prevail

venereal diseases is no respector of
persons, but is found among men and
women of all races and economic
conditions of life. Some larger health
departments are conducting venereal
disease clinics with the view of a
permanent cure. This is fine where
the health department has the money
and personnel to go into treatment
on the wholesale plan. Two reason
able objections to this are: First;
Treatment other than for the pur-
pose of prevention, except of the in
digent is not a function of the health
department, but should be done and
is better done by the private prac-
TONERS. The Health Department, as
has been before stated, wishes to
avoid any encroachment upon the
field of the regular doctors. Second

~ for q preseason period of
conditioning was founded in the fertile
noodle Of q man who. II he doesn't

His name is Cap Anson, who so
years ago was managing and playing

long since has been following the PEN
nant races from Valhalle, but before
this man Of strange. theatrical ideas
was waived out, he lived to see his
brain child grow into probably the
biggest publicity boost base ball will
ever know.
OF course, there Is little resemblance
between the modern Spring training
trip of major league club and the
kind of expedition that Anson headed
back in the Winter of 1886. His Chi

Leemans had completed his college

WHEN Jim Pixlee took Tuffy's hand

farewell to G. w. athlete, no one in
the crowd would have said aught but
what the Colonials' athletic chieftain
said publicly:

only fair to state at this time what
We all think of him around here.
Without a doubt, he is the great
est athlete George Washington ever

I ever coached"

Coach Bill Reinhart wasn't ashamed
to be seen wiping away the tears. As
for Tuffy, 1t probably was hardest of
all for him, having to stand there
and be emoted over and then start
