LONGING

Behind stone walls and iron gates
And trees and shrubs do we re-
treat,
That studies be unhampered by
The noisy traffic in the street.
But those stone walls and iron
gates
That guard and keep us safe in
here,
Can never bar the whirring
sounds
Of planes that reach and thrill
my ear
So, how can books and study
make
Me keep my mind on things
down here,
When long to fly in silver planes
That zoom through space and
good, clean air?

The following guests were in

and Gerald Carreker, Atlanta,
Ga. H., -
r Meeting was then turned over
to Chairman Hampton of the
Program Committee, who called
on Dan Harrison to introduce j.
E. Levan as speaker of the eve
ming.
Mr.. Levan's statement was
1.-THE Mosquito Control Prob
lem. He went back to the sac
rificial work of Drs. Carlos Fend-
ley and Walter Reed in Cuba, the
work of the Rockefellow Founda-
ton and time methods of
control
Mr.. Levan pointed out that
certain areas of China and South
America are now suffering from
the yellow fever mosquito. He
mentioned the fact, too, that this
area has these pests. But through
the good work of the Pan-Ameri-
can Sanitary Board, no one from
this area has been infected with
the disease. gsfAx4
The speakD discussed at length
the life. history of. the different
types of mokalDTs gand brought
out the fact AAA the yellow few
er specie breed in flower pots,
old tires, cans, cisterns, etc. He
recommended oiling and screen
ing cisternS and destruction of
other breeding places. He also
recommended fish (gombusia
afinis) for other species of mos
quitos. He said that oil was good
but didn't last.
In discussing the life of the
mosquito, Mr.. Levan stated that
only the female bites and this is
necessary to fertilize her eggs for
propagation. That the ordinary
house mosquito never goes away
from the house, that the yellow
fever mosquito never travels very
far but the salt marsh mosquito
may travel as far as forty miles,
that these pests had ruined many
summer resorts along the Attain
tic Seaboard, etc. were touched on
by the speaker
Mr.. Levan naent iuned the <act
that the yellow l4vee rrosoII{to
spreads the urban Yellow Lever,
the jungle fever and densue or
breakbone fever.
A pertinent fact brought out
was that the mosquito can only
be controlled if the individual
will control them around his
house or premises and if they
are controlled other pests with be
automatically controlled along
with them.
After the lecture two interest
ing movie reels We're shown on

ABOUT WOMEN
AND SPORTS

scratch out dope for all you guys, but mostly
gals. This started out exactly ri ght, with
attendance Of about ninety the First Night
(Capitalized, as it truly one) Of Moments Gym
this fall. ArriHn like the ten O'Clock scholar,
Of which species there is always at any kind of
gathering, it was astonishing to the pre-
Of illimitable pleasure all of the faces about.
Why it nshing? Well, being the first night,
most people stiff after summer of loafing
bout, wi n not getting any active play at all,
and it would naturally be thought that instead Of
seeing happy faces, and hare-brained actions,
would hear groans, grmts, and features cont ort
ed with pain and anguish.
From O'Clock to about nine, vo1leyball held the
attention Of all who were there. Doris DUNCAN cap
ably handled the two very large vo1leybll combats,
at Cd Their end Of the gymnasium On the center
of the floor, aspiring vacationists d scovered
deck tennis disc and managed to keep in everyone's
ways Mrs. Pincla1ey, Mrs. Hesse, Ms. Boggs and
eral others among those who tossed the teethng
ring about.
After the voneball games, all those who were
interested, joined in class of exercising. Stand
ing in rows, length from each other, they
looked like experienced gymlasts performing the
ercises that were previously deDnstrated by Mss
DUNCAN. During this eoiibi ton Of body twisting
cracking bones we're heard, but upon looking
again, all said bodies were in piece.
During this performance of skill, six badninton
enthusiasts stole six rackets and shutt1ecock
(bird to you). Upon committing this foul Decd they
crept out into the front hall and proceeded to bat
tie it out to the end. In this nterrificn display
Of grace, HRS. Wofsey and Mrs. Martone, did their
part in making feathers fly. It wouldn't do to men
ton the other four names; it was bad enough to
"squea1n on two Of the culprits.
From nine O'Clock to the end Of the evening,
eryone's favorite game monopolized the 1ime1ight.
RMNToNl All here's game for you. The beginners
and advanced players divided into two groups,
vi tn the beginners receiving instruction at end
Of the gym, and the advanced players using the
other court to play on. There were many aspir-
ants in the beginners ranks, they had to be divided
into shifts with each shift playing for IS minutes.
During the Of the evening, many Who did
not wi 81 to arise Friday morning with the tiniest
of tiny muscles aching played the gentler Of games,
shuff1eboard.
Ping Pong another hit, and had
perienced players showing their stuff. Among these
we're lrs. Wofsey, Mrs. Nartne, Hrs. King, Hiss
Colletti, and Hiss DUNCAN.
There many many faces there, and Hiss
DUNCAN hopes they vii return again next week, and
every week the after.
In closing this week, will leave you with the
thought that it is the ambitious person rather than
the Loaf who Doesn't notice how much work he does
