Health Courses
To Be Offered
Nursing Will Be Taught
In Sin imer Term
A six week Summer Session, begin-
ning June 26, under the tutelage of
the Division of Hygiene and Public
Health, will offer basic and advanced
courses for public health nurses. The
course has been designed especially
for those who are unable to pursue
college work during the school year.
Admission requirements are gradu-
ation from an accredited high school;
graduation from an accredited school
of nursing; registration under the
state nurses' practice act, and evi-
dence of sound health.
Courses in school health problems,
principles of public health nursing,
special fields in public health nurs-
ing and administration and super-
vision of public health nursing are
included in the curricula.
Prof. John Sundwall, director of
the Division, will present a course in
communicable diseases in which the
nature, sources, classification, routes,
general and specific measures for
controlling them will, be discussed.
Cannon Warns
Aginlst Claims
Of Cold- Cures
C'ontnued use of certain highly ad-
vertiscd "cold cures" may have ef-
fects as dangerous as lipoid pneu-
monia upon' the lungs, Dr. Paul R.
Cannon, professor of pathology in the
University of Chicago medical school,
asserted yesterday in a University
lecture.
Nasal oils, usually containing min-
eral oil, may not even accomplish
what their manufacturers claim they
will do-"ward off" or remedy colds,
Dr. Cannon said. He declared that
many commercial preparations some-
times reach the lungs and cause pul-
monary irritations.
Once considered a disease of chil-
dren only, lipoid pneumonia has de-
veloped in adults after prolonged use
of mineral and cod-liver oil com-
imounds, Dr. Cannon observed.
His experiments have shown that
extended colds begin to disappear
when these liquid medications are
discarded.
Antiseptics and astringents may ir-
ritate the pulmonary tissues, despite
advertising claims that they are
"non-toxic and soothing," Dr. Can-
non claimed. Spraying of children's
nostrils with astringents to prevent
infantile paralysis infection may
cause leakage of albumen if they get
into the lungs, he continued, and
argyrol may set the stage for the de
velopment of fatal bronchial pneu- I
Inona.
Tapping, Morgan

T. Hawley Tapping, general secre-

ary of the association, will address
he University of Michigan Club of
Akron tonight at the University Club.
darold M. Lacy, '15, former president
>f the Student Council, and now
president of the Akron club, has made
arrangements for the meeting. Mor-
;an is now on a tour of 12 University
>f Michigan Clubs in Ohio, West
Virginia, and Penmsylvania.

Drama tic Season
Director Has Long
Theatrical Career
Helen Arthur, who is beginning her
second year as executive director of
the Dramatic Season, has a theatrical
career which began many years ago
and which has included positions as
manager and producer.
For 13 seasons, Miss Arthur was
manager and one of the directors of
the Neighborhood Playhouse, pioneer
of the little theatre movement. When
productions ceased at its theatre at
466 Grand St., she brought its com-
pany up to the Little Theatre at
Broadway and 44th St.-a theatre
which won more than its share of
fame in the world of drama.
There she produced an annual re-
vue, "The Grand Street Follies."
Other productions included works of
Dunsany and Andreyev; "Gantillon's
"Maya"; Hatch's "If Love Were All,"
and Hugh Walpole's "The Old Ladies"
which reached the screen with Rob-
ert Montgomery ..under the name
"Night Must Fall."
During the past eight years, Miss
Arthur has been manager of Ruth
Draper and a -number of other dance
groups.
Sigma Xi To Hear
Oberlin Professor
Prof. Paul B. Sears, head of the
department of botany at Oberlin
College, will speak at the initiation
banquet of Sigma Xi, national hon-
orary scientific society, at 6:30 p.m.
today in the Union.
Professor Sears will address the 150
new initiates and assembled members
on the subject of his third book,
"Who Are These Americans?" pub-
lished recently. Professor Sears be-
gan his career as a botanist, but
found that the study of the vegeta-
tion of North America led him to
consider its relation to the white
man as the most important factor
relative to the botany of the conti-
nent.

Five men have begun training in
the University of Michigan Flying
Club flying classes, and six more are
expected to start next week, Daniel

interest in flying to enable it to oper-
ate its own ship next fall, so that
the instruction course may be offered
for half the present price.
A meeting to encourage coeds to
sign up for the flight course will be
held on May 3 in the Union. Arrange-
ments have been made for Mrs. Mabel
Britten of the "99's," national organi-
zation of women pilots, to address the

onstrations are also being offered at
the Ann Arbor Airport for interested
coeds by flying club members.

preparations for the Midwest Inter-
collegiate Flying Competition at Gam-
bier, 0. will be held May 6.

davits filed by every employe of the
National Youth Administration of
Michigan, a fraction of one per cent
of the program's personnel were
found to be aliens according to a
recent citizenship census.
In this census, which included
wvery persons from State Director
Orin W. Kaye down, 41 of the 7,120
unemployed; out-of-school youth em-
ployed on work projects and 93 of
the 13,091, boys and girls who are
being assisted to continue their edu-
cation in high schools and colleges
through NYA part-time jobs were
not citizens.

resources, medical care for all, and
the guarantee of civil liberties and
equal political and religious rights to
all American citizens regardless of
race, creed, color or belief."
The Senate tolerance committee
stated that representatives from cam-
pus groups, including church or-
ganizations, fraternities, sororities,
Congress and Assembly would be in-
vited to attend a meeting May 7 in
the Union to, initiate a tentative pro-
gram for a broad discussion of ra-
cial and religious problems of the
University. This tolerance forum
would be held during the fall semes-
ter. The body also welcomed any
charges of racial or religious dis-
crimination in Ann Arbor and prom-
ised immediate, objective investiga-
tion.
A motion backing the Oxford pledge
not to fight in a war by the U.S. on
foreign soil, was tabled until the
next meeting, May 8.

By MORTON JAMPEL
The Indians are on the warpath
again. Twenty stalwart braves are
preparing to 'bring lacrosse, oldest
American sport, to the University.
Lacrosse, originally a form bf in-
ter-tribal warfare and appropriately
dubbed "murder on the lawn," is also
an all-American sport. It combines
the best features, from the point of
view of spectator interest, of hockey,
soccer, and basketball, and all the
thrills of football and jai-alai.
The game is rougher, tougher and
faster than hockey, far easier for
the stands to follow than football,
and the ball is a ,more dangerous
thing than a hockey puck because it
is propelled so much faster. Yet some-
how America has failed to bring its
oldest native game into its own. La-
crosse is the embodiment of every-
thing a sports fah wants to see in an
athletic contest, yet its popularity
in this country is limited- almost ex-
clusively to the East Coast.
The Michigan men now organizing
a team mostly hail from the East.

They include many high school stars
-"Spec" Reitz, a New York all-city
defense man, and Marty Dworkis,
outstanding goalie. The boys are pre-
paring to secure the necessary pro-
tective equipment, new sticks, and
start an intramural schedule, until
they are ready to meet other schools.
They are hoping for University recog-
nition.
In short order the cry of a goalie
who has made a save, "Lead out!"
*will ring out on Ann Arbor sport
fields and mark the return of a
sport that was born here (among the
Huron Indians) hundreds of years
ago.
