WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-In marked
contrast with silence mantained at the

BLAZE FROM POT
OF CREOSOTE IS
EASIL Y QUENCHED
A pot of creosote which members
of the forestry department were at-
tempting to heat was the cause of a
fire in the court of the Natural Sci-
ence building at 11:15 o'clock yester-
day. The can which contained the
creosote sprang a leak and immedi-
ately ignited, sending flames the
height of the building and filling the
corridors with smoke. There was no
damage.

ANNOUNCED BY KRAS,
Include Intensified Program. In Public
Health For Those Unable To Be
At IResgular Sessions.
WILL LASTSIX WEEKS
At the repeated requests of health
workers in the state, and for the con-
venience of those who are unable to
leave their duties long enough to at-
tend the regular Summer session
courses, there will be introduced in-
tensified work in public health in the
form of week-end institutes, is the
announcement of Edward H. Kraus,
dean of the Summer session and dean
of the College of Pharmacy.
These public health institutes have
been arranged for each Friday and
Saturday for a period of six weeks,
beginning July 1. There will be a se-
ries of lectures each day of the in-
stutute, presented by both professors
regularly at the University and other
speakers prominent in public health
work throughout the country. It is
expected that, although this is the
first year of such a plan, more than
75 health workers will attend the
Univeristy each of the week-ends.
Each institute stands as a unit, so
far 6s the subject matter discussed is
concerned, although there -is continu-
ity in the course as a whole. This is
done so that the workers can attend
all, or only a few of the institutes,
without any particular loss.1
The lecture titles cover asnumber of
different subjects in the various fields
of public health endeavor, including:
diet, statistics, mental hygiene, rural
sanitation, nutrition, public health ad-
ministration, tuberculosis, public
nursing, child health, skin diseases of
public health significance, degenra-
tive diseases, periodic health examina-
tions, modern trend in group health,
dental hygiene, life and work of Pas-
teur, factors responsible for crippled
children, and infant mortality.
Among the speakers who are listed
from out of the city are: Dr. W. J. V.
Deacoi of Lansing; Dr. L. L. Lums-
den of Washington; Miss Mabel
Bragg, assistant superintendent of
schools at Newton, Mass.; Dr. Henry
F. Vaughan, commissioner of health,
Detroit; Miss Sally Lucas Jean of
New York; Dr. L. Kiefer, in charge
of the department of health under
Gov. Fred W. Green; Newton Edson
of New York; and Dr. Victor C.
Vaughan, formerly dean of the Medi-
cal school here and at present at
Washington.
A fee of $3 will be charged for each
of the six institutes.

Oosterbaan, Harrigan and Captain
Chambers led the Wolverine attack.
Oosterbaan achieved high scoring
honors with 11 points. Otterness of
Minnesota took the second place in

i minutes before the final gun, when he

Harrigan and Chambers. Coach Tay-
Ilr shifted his Minnesota lineup fre-
Iquently.

free-throw record for the Minnesota
floor when he dropped in six shots out
of seven attempts. The Wolverines
counted eight out of 16 tries from
the foul line. Minnesota netted four
points in 10 tries,
Harrigan commenced the scoring
for the evening when he dropped in
his first free throw attempt. Otterness
put the Gophers in the lead with a
field goal and two foul shots. Tanner
boosted the Gopher total to six points
with a shot from under the basket.
Harrigan dropped in another of his
foul shots and Oosterbaan followed
with a field goal after dribbling the
length of the floor.
Chambers Scores
Harrigan continued to drop in foul
shots and Oosterbaan looped two
more field goals before the half end-
ed. Captain Chambers broke into the
scoring column with a field goal and
a foul shot in this/period. The score
at the half was Michigan 18, Minneso-
ta 10.
McCoy, lanky center, got into ac-
tion in the second half and scored in
three short baskets in rapid succes-
sion. Oosterbaan netted another field
goal.
Otterness, Strand, and Nydahl were
the outstanding Minnesota perform-
ers. Coach Taylor yanked Captain
