Faculty Players Score Dramatic Hit In “Fireman, Save My Child” With Chorus Of Boos and Cheers From Audience

The laugh ter, boos, cheers and hisses (n o t to m ention th e c run ch ­ing of p ean u ts) of a capacity aud i­ence resounded th rough the chapel W ednesday night, N ovem ber 30, as the faculty stru tted its stuff in “F ire­m an, Save My C hild" und er the able d irection of Mrs. Douds and the p roud sponsorship of - Sigma Tau Delta.

“ Peanu ts, lem onade, and popcorn, c rack erjack ; A prize in every pack?" m ight have been the call of Prof. Buckwalter and Mr. G ordon as they haw ked the ir w ares in the aisles betw een acts. The peanuts and popcorn bags provided excellent am m unition, but the venders wisely collected the Coca Cola bottles be­fore anyone got any ideas.

Faculty SpecializesBob W o rk 's celebrated “dead p an "

was trem endously effective in his im personations of old-fashioned tin ­types. Lest th a t should not be enough, specialties by m em bers of the faculty kep t things hum m ing be­tw een curta ins. Mrs G reen 's rendition of “O nly A Bird in A Gilded C age" had at least two mem­bers of th e audience in tears—— the aforem entioned venders. They just cou ldn 't tak e it. P ro f G rahan (C ow boy) Cook played some very sad ballads of his native Texas. In th e regrettab le absence of his ukulele. Prof, H am ilton was forced tp p inch-hit on his banjo . Miss G ar- lach’s d ialect recitations, especially th e English version of H arry 's m ili­ta ry adventures, would n o t have been com plete w ithout the large chiffon handkerchief which was thoughtfully p resented to h er in the n ick of time by the m. c. T he male q uarte tte , consisting of Dr. Masters, Prof. Douds, Prof. G ingrich, Prof. Memming, P ro f Cook, Prof. Buck- w aiter, and Mr. G ordon scored an instantaneous h it with its rendition of “ Man O n T h e Flying Trapeze** and “ W orking on the Railroad.** But the m athem atics of the whole thing taxed m ore than one math student. O r do tw o and two m ake a q u arte tte? Lest we forget w hat a variety of faculty talen t lies hidden in our midst, the music, songs and recitations of the profs, brough t down th e house.

Audience Likes PlayT he m elodram a itself was a howl­

ing success. T he audience whole­heartedly booed the villain, ably p layed by Prof. H arding, as he a t­tem pted to carry out his nefarious schem es against the lovely heroine, Miss Fenili, and the dauntless hero. Prof. G eorge. TMe villain 's mus­tach e looked Dretty uncerta in to starboard , but will pow er and a little sp irit gum m anaged to hold it on. T he height of pathos was reached by th e heroine as she cried out the stirring ly dram atic line of definance. “ No, no, a thousand tim es no I'* and by her famous com plaint, “ 1 am m ore sinned against than usual.** O r was it reached by Miss K lepping- er, whose ear rings w ere simply am azing, as she begged, “ Firem an, save my chid!*' in tones of deepest anguish? It is h ard to say which touched the audience most.

Tens« DramaT he height of d ram a, of suspense, (a n d of v illainy) was reached as the

ru th less villain, A rch ibald by name, hypnotized the maid. Miss Elder. Miss E lder’s hypnotic s tare rivaled Bob W ork s tin -type expression for sheer blankness. Doubtless that scene wjll go down in dram atic his­tory.

Mrs. C ook 's m otherly concern for her two sons, p layed by Profs. G eorge and H arding, touched the audience deeply. Prof. D anford, as the p ho tographer, dashed on and off the stage a t the most aw kard mom ents, while his “A lfalfa” h a ir­cu t was especially effective against th e light back-drops. Miss Ben- n inger s unconventional entrance upon the stage was startling, to say th e least. Miss Shaffer's services as th e p ro m p ter w ere invaluable and very, very m uch in dem and. Need we add that, a t th e conclusion, v irtue trium phed over all?

Chemical Journal Honors Dr. Cook In Printing ArticleSeveral weeks ago, Dr. G raham

Cook, head of th e departm en t of C hem istry, was highly honored by having one of his papers published in the Novem ber issue of the Journal of Chem ical Education, a m onthly publication of th e A m erican Chem i­cal Society. Because of the vast am ount of m ateria l subm itted for the magazine, only the best articles can be chosen for publication.

Dr. C ook 's paper, "T im e to Re­tire*' was p resented in p art a t a m eeting of the Lehigh Valley Section of the A m erican Chem ical Society, F ebruary 19, 1937. In it he criti­cizes the fact that, as the science of chem istry p rogresses, new m aterial is constantly added; but there is an app aren t re luctance to d iscard any old m aterial. Several outm oded processes and unsatisfactory con­cepts still used a re proposed for dis­card.

The first top ic urged by Dr. Cook for elim ination is the a rc process for fixation of n itrogen, the so-called Birkeland-Eyde process. A n o th er is th e LeBlanc process for the m anufac­tu re of Soda A sh. Both of these are obsolete industrial processes long since replaced by m ore m odern methods.

Besides these industrial processes, D r. Cook considers some of our m ore obsolete theoretical concepts o r ideas. Am ong these he includes the “ n ascent" elem ent idea, ideas concerning the p rocess of “ combi tio n ,” and a num ber of faulty d e f in i­tions. H e also discusses th e con­fusion of th e top ic of solutions, es­pecially solutions of electrotypes, and m akes various suggestions for th e ir simplification in the mind of the student.

Finally, Dr. Cook suggests the re- ring of the use of th e “W orld W ar" as exam ples in teaching. A lthough

these illustrations prove useful a t some tim es, they have been greatly overem phasized.

In closing, Dr. Cook states that he has touched on only a few topii th a t should be retired and suggests a m ethod of m odernization of the teach ing of chem istry by subtraction and attem ptin g to reach some agree' m en on the topics th a t it is nov time to retire.

Dean's Report On Mid-Semeter Check Shows 62% Without a “D"

A study of the grades recently subm itted by the faculty in the mid- first-sem ester check indicates th a t 38 p ercen t of the students received de­ficiency grades of “D ", “E” , or “F " in a to tal of 702 sem ester hours of work.

Of the 143 students w ho received grades below the quality ra ting of “ C ", 22 ( I Senior, 3 Juniors. 8 8 Sophom ores, and 10 Freshm en) received such grades in 9 o r m ore hours of w ork. This indicates that

complete from polar b dancers. Polar bears, of the brave, got up at six every m orning for a dip in the lake. And folk dancers hopped, skipped, and jum ped the light fantastic in the ra s ino everv night from ten to elev-

hnrdyenough to stand the strain of dancing, there was baseball, swim­ming* tennis, bicycling, riding, h ik­ing— night and day, boating, bad- mnton, and ping pong. Those more interested in planning games for group meetings attended the recrea­tional institute in charge of Mr. Rohrbaugh. And now— would you like to be called at six tomorrow? We have a lake too.

* * *

The most outstanding leader at Eagles Mere was Luther Tucker. He had just returned from China and Japan, where he had spent three months acting as the Worlds Stu­dent Christian Federation secretary to the Far East. He made very real to us the plight of the Chinese refugee students and told us how we can help them.

The Far Eastern Emergency Fund is the A m erican Christians student fund for that purpose.

Luther led the vespers services, short religious services held every evening just before the main meet­ing. We tried having it beside the lake, but the mosquitoes objected. They won.

Since he is an Episcopal minis­ter, Tucker used liturgical prayers in the service. His sermons were short explanations of New Testa­m ent passages. The Communion service on the last day, led by Lu­ther T ucker and Miss Aspinwall, was a liturgical service. The dignity of the liturgical made it very impres­sive and one of the most memorable of all the Eagles Mere events.

# *In the Christian Community and Interracial Problems group we had

grand discussions led by a very in­teresting personality, Mrs. Grace Town Hamilton, Secretary of the Nationa lln terracial Commission of the National Intercollegiate C hrist­ian Council. We touched all phases of interracial problems, but mainly the negro problem since, through personal experience, this was very vital to her. O ur group had an advantage over the o ther discussion groups since we had the opportunity to put into actual practice some of the theory we had been discussing, when the m anager of the hotel re­fused privileges to several negro delegates . T h e final conclusions of our groups w ere that all in ter­racial problems result from two sources nam ely: Social and individ­ual prejudices and fears.

# * #One of the most challenging and

inspiring addresses of the entire con­ference was Dr. Bevin’s message to youth on “The Christian Commun­ity.**

His own love of life and faith in man was clearly seen as he told us again and again that this is a great time to live because of the very fact tha t there are situations to be faced and problems to be solved. The oldsters *he said, check the hopeful ness of what they feel by the way il seems to us.

T he deepest disease of life, ac cording to Dr. Bevin, is a lack o community. The answer to oui problem is to live richly on the basil

OUR teY " ROOM

he says, chases out faith, and have dropped fear into human ciety. We must put in something that will integrate. According to Dr. Bevin, only religion can do this, We need a God. This God Dr Bevin interpreted as a universal big ger than all of us. This require ment is met in Jesus ,the most uni versal person the world ever saw, the contem porary of everyone.

H e spoke of this problem as a challenge to all of us. He said that youth is entitled to look out on this as a glorious adventure. The im portant thing for us is to be in it, p art and parcel of the great job. Tw enty years of life don’t m atter— fifty years of life don’t m atter. The th ing that counts is that we are p art of it. It may havt moments of danger; it may even have a cross;

Announcing...A place to play a game of check­

ers after supper, a place for a friendly game of pinochle o r bridge, a place for a fast ping pong m atch or a heated argum ent around the fireplace, a place to meet fellow chess players ,a place to meet your friends— the Y ROOM!The form er Lower Social Hall has been obtained by the Y organizations as a Y Room. W ithin the very near future, it will be open on a regu­lar daily schedule with facilities for ping pong, chess, cards, piano play­ing, and general inform al socializ­ing. The tentative schedule is:

Mornings— 10:00 to 12:30 Afternoons— >4:30 to 5:30 Evenings— 6:00 to 9:00 The Y reading nook, which is at

present located in the College Li- , will be moved to the Y Room, nt Student Movement and Y literature will then be available in Y Room.’he room will in general be the il point of the Y. M. C. A —. C. A. activities; the need for i has long been evident. If* after

tht first week, enough persons evince •rest in a particular game, s or tournam ents can be o r­ganized. The chess club already nticipates a tournam ent; if interest­ed in com peting or learning to play, Jules Bookbinder o r Jack Stover. The game facilities are for everyone. If you can’t play something but would like to learn, there will prob­ably be someone on hand glad to ihow you. Come around and learn!The Lower Social H all was open last year as is well known. It was subsequently closed because couples were prone to m ake a sort of “W restling Room" out of it. If you want to spend that kind of an evening together, d on 't come to the Y Room. But if you do want to have an evening of fun and fellow­ship with your m utual friends, why then come on down and join th< group— “You can 't beat fun.”The Y organization, that is, th< student body, has the Y Room oi probation. It is hoped that it will prove a hjandy and enjoyable pit for recreation, and that it will be patronized. Otherwise the o rganl zations will have to relinquish th< room and it will revert to its pres- ent status— a locked room, with nc recreational facilities, and available only upon application for certain meetings. There is no reason why this shoud happen.During the hours thie Y Room open, a student will be at the desk to check out equipment. Voluntee a re needed for this job— if you have a spare hour or two and wish to do your bit tow ard m aking the room a success, get in touch with Lew Briner or Jack Stover for a place on the desk schedule. And watch for the grand opening.

Lets Help Far East StudentsHelp to students in distress i

m ajor pro ject of the joint social action committees of th t “Y s.” Following up the impetus given to active sym pathy for the Chinese by the two native Chinese, Dr. Yin and Miss Lui, the “Y’s" a re plan­

ing to go drive for funds in the city s well as on the campus. This ffort on the Albright cam pus is a rt of a nation-wide student move- nent under the direction of the ar Eastern Student Service Fund.As a result of the undeclared rar in China, some 35 colleges and

niversities in China are totally or partially destroyed. O thers are be­ing used as barracks for Japanese troops. According to information

:eived from China, there has been mass migration of Chinese stu ­dents . from the w ar zones. They ;ed clothing and food. They need place to live. They want to con- îue their studies.Funds are distributed through ne local committees in key stu­

dent centers of China. Trained sec- ries, giving volunteer service, make possible wise selection of those receiving aid and a personal relationship with them. There is no discrimination as to sex, religion o r political views. Help is given to any student in good academic standing who is in desperate need because of the war.

Approxim ately two per cent of the fund is set aside for Japanese students who face problems just as real if different in kind. Money given by American students to stu­dents in Japan is a symbol of our solidarity with groups who are seek­ing to maintain international con­tacts during crises. The small sum given last year to help the Student Christian Movement in Japan car­ried profound meaning in the midst of the difficulties they face. This action brings trem endous encourage­ment to those fellow students on whom rests the hope of future re­construction.

W ith amazing skill, the F. E. S. S. F. has worked out a schedule of expenditures for distribution of funds for China. For 5c three m eal are provided. For $2 it is possibl« to purchase clothing for four stu­dents. Room and board for an i tire year are available for $20.

The “Y’s” solicit the support of the entire campus in giving < fellow students across the Pac: a helping hand in their moment distress.

The “Y” Wishes All A Merry

Christmas

1 think it is almost trite to say that dynamic religion as a vital force on our campus has been only sporadically evident. As a m atter of fact, a good m any students, com ­ing from a good old Sunday-School, died-in-the-wool background, have been unable to m ake the adjustm ent of faith to new knowledge, and so have throw n over completely all their old concepts n,nd are now m ore or less lost. Not that they would ever adm it it! Most of them > ucceed pretty well with a blase front and a devil-may-care attitude. But fortunately, some faintly suspect that they have “ throw n out the baby with the wash w ater."

’ O n the o ther hand, there have been almost as manv in another ra th er succinctly defined camp which have made little if any effort to make a nadjustm ent——fearful lest tru th of laboratory and class-room should tear down some of their fondly built religious structure. You may know them by their holier- than-thou attitude.

W hy the YBut how does the Y figure in this?I wonder how m any of us— at least those of us who realize that there is a Y on the campus— have ever asked ourselves “ Just what is it that the Y is try ing to accom plish?" It seems to m e tha t this question is so fundam ental tha t it is nothing

short of a catastrophe if our local organization has been lum bering along all these years without some reasonably clear idea of what its the varied activities which it has purpose is. W hat is behind all of sponsored In times past?

1 think tha t the closest we might possibly come to expressing an ob­jective for the Y a t Albright is to say that our purpose is to form a fellowship of those who are con­cerned about the Christian way of life, to find what it is, and to make it possible on our campus. If that is not our aim, then why do we longer bother to call ourselves “ C hristian?" The trouble is, so many of us belong to one o r the o ther of the two “ camps” we m en­tioned earlier— either to the camp that stands off with a ten-foot pole from everything that even smells like religion, or to the camp that thinks it has all the answers wants to reform the world. We of the Y feel very definitely that both opinions are w rong and that we neet more than anything else on oui campus a sincere a ttem pt to find ou what it really means to be a Chris tian and then afford a fellowship for those who have the courage to try to live tha t way of life.

Chapel Dormitory Touch Ball ChampsBy duplicating its perform ance

of the first half, the Chapel touch- football team captured the second half and the inter-fraternity cham- ionship. The small Chapel team closed the season undefeated, but were deadlocked twice by the A. P. O .’s, once in each half.As in the first half, Groblewski's passing and Rozanski's kicking were the deciding factors. Besides these two, the team consists of Buynoski, Golis, Fisher, Yoder and Snyder.

The Chapel team started off by coming from behind to trim the K appa's 18 -12, in what was the most hectic game of the season. T h e Chapel sextet scored the last m inute on a short pass and a run fro m midfield to break the dead­lock. The Champs could do noth­ing against the A. P. O .’s, but they came back to give the Pi T a u 's 1 their only defeat of the season.

The Pi Tau 'a scored first, but the Chapel boys came back to score twice in ten minutes. The win- ; ning sextet finished the season with j victories against he Theologs and i the Day Students.

Goal Line Defense The Lions exhibited two brilliant "oal-line stands inside their own five yard stripe in the first and final periods. The score came in the

second after three futile tries to pierce the Albright line.The Lions back on their own five, i chose DeLorenzo to kick. The pass from center was low and DeLorenzo ran the ball back to the three. On the next play, DeLorenzo kicked to the 35 where Stamus took the ball and returned it to the 25.A nother four plays and the ball rested on the 14. A further a t­tem pt to gain ground found the formidable M uhlenberg line stalled. W ith Stamus holding the ball. Burin kicked the ball squarely between the uprights.

Albright's Single Threat W ith Burt Aszman, Marshall Popelka, and Alan Duke accounting

for the gains, the Lions moved the ball from their own 8-yard line up to the Mules 45. The first drive, by Aszman, gained 12 yards. From a punt retu rn , Alan Duke added an additional 19 yards on a try over tackle. A final attem pt by Aszman and Popelka moved the ball to the M uhlenberg 48. A reverse, with Aszman carrying the ball, put the Digskin down on the Mules 45-yard

In the final quarter, a pass from Burin to Stamus, who raced to the two-yard line, was good for 38 yards. On the second try at the line. Capt. Mike Bonner recovered a M uhlenberg fumble and destroyed the final M uhlenberg scoring threat. Bonner, Snyder Outstanding Hie brilliant work of Capt. Mike Bonner and Jimmy Snyder kept the Mules in hot water. Knifing their way through the line, they broke up play after play of the Mules.

W ith the smoke of the T urkey t Day Tilt slowly disappearing, the Albright gridders concluded a foot­ball season that was unusually tough. It concluded games with ferocious ball clubs who were eager to down the Lions proud from last year's sue-

This can be said about the A l- ! bright Lions. Stiff competition con- j stantly confronted them, but— their striking defense kept them fibm serious defeat, even a t the hands of j several of the East’s best collegiate teams.Pos. Muhlenberg Albright

T here’s one thing about Monday m orning quarterbacking— you never call a bad one, you never lose a yard, and you never m ake a touchdown. But there’s no harm in it, and it s a good way to spend an hour be­fore class.

W hat a wonderful game football is!

swears never to go to ano ther foot­ball game, but the following Sep­tem ber he goes to the first game without any pangs of conscience, having broken every o ther resolu­tion by this tim e anyway.

The season of '38 was certainly a tough one for the Albright Lions. W ith only a fair team, the squad had to go thru the toughest schedule in the hiistory of the school. The lions emerged with four wins, a tie, and five losses. No team ran roughshod over the Lions, for the m argin of victory was never more than a touchdown. The season has been hashed over quite thoroughly by this time, and suffice to say the boys are to be commended for w ork­ing hard and keeping Albright in every game.

Next year the squad will have to do without the services of De Loren­zo, Comba, Korner, Captain Bon­ner, McFadden, V an Tosh, and Zelonis. Freshmen who are ex­pected to fill in the ranks are Mun- ley, Lockward, Coccodrillo, Breen, Klein, Plaskonis, Barr, Lauckes, Baum, Bertino, Michaels, Porecca, Lubin, Sekulski, Rusbosin, and Ku- klis. They'll have to furnish that scoring punch if A lbright expects to burn up the gridiron next fall.

Next year’s schedule is not much lighter. O pening against Getysburg the Red and W hite eleven will stack up against Bucknell, Moravian, Up- sala, W est Chester, Dickinson, F. and M., Lebanon Valley, and Muh­lenberg.

English Defects Under CorrectionThe edial of theprog

Committee on the Use of English has come into full operation since Thanksgiving vacation, with ten up­per class students receiving tutorial instruction from various members of the English Departm ent.

The purpose of the committee, which was appointed during the second semester of last year, is to m aintain a satisfactory standard in the use of English among students who have completed the required English courses. Faculty members report to this committee upper class- men whose o ral or written expres­sion is markedly defective. Students reported are tested and interviewed for diagnosis, and appropriate remedial work is assigned. The work continues until the students* difficulties in English are overcome.otti and Jack Bell. Bell has been first string end this year, and Man- otti who has been substituting at left half, will be a first string back next year. These two hfloys are heads-up ball players as the Sen­iors who played with them well

One thing noticeable at this stage of the game is the better relations existing between Albright and its opponents. Last year at this time there existed some misunderstand­ings, but time has smoothed them away. There has been in all games a spirit of sportm anship, which even defeat could not overshadow. We hope that this spirit can con­tinue and grow thru the winter sports.My All-America selection, it’s as good as yours and no better than anvone else’s: Ends: Daddio, Pitts­b urgh ; Holland, Cornell; Tackles: Beinor, N otre Dame, Wolff, Santa C lara; G uards: Heikkinen, Michigan, Bock, Iowa State; C enter: Hill,Duke; Hafbacks: Cafego, Tennessee, Pingel, Michigan State, Goldberg, Pittsburgh, O ’Brien, Texas Chiris-

Princeton Coach Speaks To Fans At Lion Banquet

Last Monday evening, over 400 students and friends of A lbrigjit College heard Mr. Tad W ieman, head coach of Princeton U niver­sity, speak a t the football banquet in the A braham Lincoln Hotel held in honor of Coach William A. Dietz and the 1938 football squad.The banquet was sponsored by the Albright A thletic Council and was put across by Stanley Giles, toastm asttr, and George Bollman, Jr., Chairm an of the A thletic Coun­cil.

The fans attending the banquet were entertained by a num ber of speakers who praised the fighting Lions and the great game of foot­ball. The first speaker of the eve­ning was Coach Frank Leahy, of Fordham University, who in tro ­duced two stars of the p resent Ford- ham squad, left halfback, Len Esh- mont, and guard, James Hayes.

Captain "M ike” Bonner intro ­duced the members of the Albright team who rose to the loud acclaim of the friends and fellow-students who paid them tribute. The sen­ior members of the squad Honored for the last time as A lbright Lions w ere Captain Bonner, William Mc­Fadden, H arry DeLorenzo, George ^ r, Edward Zelonis, John Com- id H arry Van Tosh.

Coach Dietz rose to express his thanks to the team and was suc­ceeded in he spotlight by Tad W ie­man. The Princeon coach made some very pertinent rem arks con­cerning the personal values of foot­ball and congratulated the Lions for their fine work on the gridiron-. Thus was the curta in brought

n the Albright grid season year 1938.

Pacifism Subject Of Paper Read To

Philosophy Club"Pacifism: W hat Is It>” was the subject of the paper presented be­

fore the Philosphy Club a t its last meeting in November by James Reed, ’39.As an advocate of the peaceful, peace-loving way of life, Mr. Reed attem pted to outline the ethic and philosophy underlying the pacifist’s attitude. In the first place, pacifisrit is a way of life operative in every phase of thought and action, with basis of "an all-penetrating lové i as is advocated by Christian- be­lievers.’*Pacifism finds four chief a rg u ­ments for itself. First, th ere is the commandment against killing to be

reckoned with. Secondly, there is the philosophical basis that urges the innate w orth of a hum an being too red to be killed. In the third place, there is the superm oral a rgu ­ment, opposing war on the basis of love for our b rother man. Lastly, pacifist advances the u tilitarian

im ent: the fact that the outcom e of war is never satisfactory, result-g in more harm than good.Obviously, the objective çf paci­fism is to eliminate the use of and need for violence in settling differ- >8 between peoples and nations, attain this objective, neutralizing causes must be created to erase the difficulties of international economic and political differences which lead rar. And these neutralizers must be generated by a widespread p ro ­gram of education in the w orth of i and the necessity for in terna­tional unity.Finally, pacifism is not passive but ictively cooperative and engrossed in eliminating, by virtue of its ethic, :he factors causing class wars, social n justice, and crime. In handling :hese im portant life elements, the

pacifiist has made for himself a satis­fying way of life.

SEALS

Help to Protect Your Home from Tuberculosis

CHRISTMAS is just around the corner.Proof of the nearness of the holidays is on every hand—the close of the football season, the holiday trimmings that are appearing in every shop window, the opening of the CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE.Albrightians’ stake in the holidays is not only concerned with the Christmas vacation which everyone looks forward to but also in the success of the Christmas Seal Sale Which is being conducted between Thanksgiving and Christmas by the Reading Tuberculosis Association.

For the success of the Christmas Seal Sale is tied up fairly directly with the health of the student body. For several years the freshman class has been given tuberculin tests by Prof. Horn working with the association, whose funds come almost entirely front the sale of Christmas Seals.

The tuberculin testing of this year’s freshman class (’42), according to Mrs. Dorothy Evans, executive secretary of the Reading Tuberculosis Association, showed that 39 per cent oi the 1 12 students tested were "positive" reactors. A "positive" reaction means that tuberculosis germs are present in the body, although only follow-up work in the form of X-ray examina­tions indicate whether or not the germs are active. Many per­sons react positively who never develop an active form of tuber­culosis.A majority of the reactors will not be approached in refer­ence to X-ray examinations until the latter part of this semester, when they come into contact with Professor Horn in his health classes. The association will urge at that time the vital necessity of following through the tuberculin test with X-rays.Christmas Seals which finance this work and similar testing programs in scores of public schools in the city and county, anc throughout the country as well, cost only one cent each. They may be obtained from the Reading Tuberculosis Association ai

its office at 120 North Fifth street or at a sale booth which wil be set up in the lobby of the post office.

The goal of this year’s seal sale has been set at $20,250.
