VANS OAL With the receiving o, a long ra- diogram from Mt. Evans, the sta- tion of the University Greenland expedition, Prof. William Herbert Hobbs of the geology, department, director of the expeditions, at last feels assured that communciation with the winter staff of the expedi- tion, Schneider and Carlson, will be maintained through the new radio operator, Carl Hansen, who' arrived last Wednesday. Hansen ,an operator of twelvej years experience, was procured to replace Baer who had become ill with throat trouble and could not remain at the station for the se-1 vere Greenland winter. Professor Hobbs believed at first that Schneider would be able to handle the radio, but it was decided that no chances of getting out of touch with the station should be taken. Schneider's messages during the last few weeks have been failing and much anxiety concerning thef arrival of Hansen was felt. The message from Hansen was very satisfactory.. It told of his arrival by dog-sled after a trip to Holsentensborg from |Copenhagen on the last voyage of the Disko until spring.

WINNERS ANNUUNLLU Results of the annual election of American Rhodes scholars just held in 32 states were recently an- nounced by President Frank Ayde- lotte of Swarthmore college, Amer- ican secretary to the Rhodes trus- tees. Under the new regulations in- stituted ,this year, Rhodes scholars are appointed for two years with the option of a third year at an annual stipend of 400 pounds. In- tellectual attainments, character, leadership, and interest in sports determine the choice. Scholars just elected will begin study in October, 1929. Three hun- dred and ninety-eight candidates, each selected to represent his col- lege or university, contested the 32 scholarships this year. None were elected from Michigan, this being the year when Michigan is excepted.

Our only known method of preventing Influenza is complete isolation. This is mani- festly impossible. The next best possible procedure is to avoid, in so far at it is possible, exposure to the infection. Influenza is one of the most communicable of di- seases. While we do not know all the facts as to how it is spread, we assume that it is largely spread by direct contact infection. By this we mean that the disease is passed from one person to another, direct- ly by means of the mouth and nose spray of secretions which is thrown ,out when sneezing, coughing, talk- UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTONf -In an effort to promote more friendliness and sociability on the University of Washington campus the first annual "Hello Week" was held here last week.
