terday afternoon, when Dr. May met
the first regular classes of the year.
All the sections are larger this year
than ever before, and by the end of the
week about 500 first year men will
have put a feW kinks into their youth-
ful muscles. Dr. May will be assisted
by Hanson, Spangler, and Snyder in
directing the classes this semester.
It is too early to give out any sta-
tistics as to the physical calibre of the
1916 inen, but judging from the repre-
sentative bodies on the floor yesterday,
the tape will reveal some astonishing
dimensions.
The authorities- at Barbour gymnasi-
um have not yet finished commenting
upon the remarkably poor condition of
many of this year's freshman class.
Out of 160 freshmen women, 44 are de-,
ficient, 32 having spinal curvature. Of
this number, 25 have single curvature,
and seven double curvature. Three-
fourths of this number have had no
gym work before. These figures show
the imperative necessity of physical
training in the schools.
Detailed data of the measurements
of this year's class have been complet-
ed and results are being compared
with those of last. The data is as fol-
lows: average age, 18 years, 6 months,
which is one month younger than pre-
vious classes; average weight, 121.4
pounds; average height, 63.5 inches;
lung capacity, 159.7eu.inches, which
is ten inches greater, than the class of
1915; total strength, '938.25 pounds,
which is 21 less than the class of 1913,
but more than that of other classes.
Out of 237 examined including fresh-
,men and upper class women, three stu-
dents were excused from all work; 13
were given moderate work, and eight
were referred for further examinations
on account of deficient lungs.
For those who are in any respect de-
ficent, special small classes will be
formed, and it is expected that there
will be great improvement by the end
of the year.
ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION IS

with the first day sale of seats for the
Cornell game. In preceding years, un-
fortunate freshmen were sent to the
athletic office in the early hours of the
morning that the lords of the upper
classes might have the first pick of
seats. But all this is now changed by
the 'establishment of the blanket tax,
and the attendant conditions, which
makes it necessary for each student,
freshman or post-graduate, to present
his ticket book in person at the ath-
letic office in return for a reservation
for the big game.
Yesterday was senior and post-grad-
uate day at the athletic office, and
from 8:00 o'clock in the morning when
the sale began until the closing hour,
the affair attracted such a multitudi-
nous number of the favored ones that
the line sprawled over the steps of
,the office, out to the State street side-
walk and extended in a northerly di-
rection well past the further end of
West hall. -
Although no near or past grad was
ambitious enough to emulate the ex-
ample of a last year's freshman, who
in, order to be first in line when the
doors were opened, rolled up in a blan-
ket at the athletic office porch and
spent the preceding night at that post
of vantage, some gathered at 3:00
o'clock yesterday morning on the lawn
in front of the building, lit a bonfire
and spent the intervening time in song
and swapping stories across the flam-
es,
Beside the seat reservations that
were given in exchange for the student
books, more than 1,000 of the $2.00
seats in the south bleacher were sold.
Today comes the junior's chance for
the choice seats their elders have left
them, but as far as could be ascertain-
ed at 9:00 o'clock last night, no plans
were being made by enterprising mem-
bers of that class to convert the steps
and surroundings of the athletic office
into a camp-fire reunion.
