Originated by the Daily four years
ago, the Goodfellow drive has won
universal recognition as a project
worthy of whole-hearted support. At
the University of Illinois and on half-
a-dozen other campuses the Good-
fellow plan has been copied. In cities
as large as Detroit, Goodfellow funds
serve to alleviate suffering.
Since its inception, the Goodfellow.
drive has grown in size but, with its
greater importance, has come ever
fuller appreciation of its humanitar-
ian purposes. That the campus will
appreciate these motives in tomor-
row's drive is sure; that it will give
fuller support. than ever before is
expected. If you do your part that
end will be noticeably easier to reach.

Case History
Of Local Bo
The case history of a 13-year-old
boy. formerly a member of the Michi-
gan Children's Institute in Ann Ar-
bor, and now under treatment at the
University's Neuropsychiatric Insti-
tute is described in the latest issue
of Time, nationally-circulated news
magazine.
The magazine relates the story of
Chris Simpson, whom Clarence F.
Ramsay, superintendent of the Chil-
dren's Institute, has called a "typi-
cal product of a home where there has
been neither parental love nor dis-
cipline."
According to Time, the Simpson
boy, whose' parents deserted him af-
ter frequent mistreatment, was placed
in the Children's Institute at the
age of five. Later hewas adopted by
a ealthy widow and moved to her
farm in Calhoun 'County.

Belgium's "Little Mother," Princess Josephine, mother to her brothers
since their mother's death, enters a Brussels church with an uncle,

Many hazards await Rhodes Schol-
ars upon their arrival at Oxford
University. Not only is the educa-
tional system different but heating
facilities, climate, food and many
other obstacles confront them.
At present several University stu-
(dents are awaiting the decision of
the Rhodes Scholarship committee.
,Since their inception of these schol-
arships in 1904, 12 Michigan men
have received these coveted awards.
In addition four members of the fac-
ulty were at one time Rhodes Schol-
ars: Prof. Hessel E. Yntema of the
Law School, Prof. Arthur Smithies
of the economics department, Prof.
John P. Dawson of the Law School
and Allan Seager of the English de-
partment.
Founded in 1904 as a result of the
legacy left by Cecil John Rhodes, fa-
mous English colonial leader, the
awards have been providing a large
number of students in the United
States, the British dominions and
Germany two to three years study at
the great English university.
Out of a $40,000,000 legacy, $250,-
000 was taken annually to provide
scholarships to Oxford for deserving
men. These were divided among the
United States, British dominions and
Germany. During the World War,
however, the German scholarships
wereddiscontinued, only to be re-
sumed or. a greatly reduced scale
after the Armistice.
Rhode's purpose was to develop
men in all-around interests who
would eventually go into public serv-
ice, thru furthering amicable rela-
tions between the countries con-
cerned. But statistics have shown
that the plan has failed to produce
any national political leaders, the
majority instead showing a marked
tendency toward academic and pro-
fessional work. The original stipula-
tion called for men who were pro-
ficientsin athletics as well as in their
studies for Rohdes did not want
'bookworms." But this has gradually
changed until at present scholastic,
ability is the chief requisite. Today
the qualities considered in making
selections are (1) literary and schol-
astic ability and attainments, (2)
qualities of manhood, truth, courage,
devotion to duty, sympathy, kindli-
ness, unselfishness and fellowship,
(3)exhibition of moral force of char-
acter and of instincts to lead and to
take an interest in his schoolmates
and (4) physical vigor as shown by
interest in outdoor sports or in other
ways.
Up intil 1929, twomen from each
state were sent to Oxford but at thA
aforementioned date the basic sys-
tem was changed. It was felt that in
all fairness sparsely populated states
like Nevada or Arizona should not
receive as great a representation as
'New York or some of the other large
states Therefore, the United States
was divided into eight zones of six

75,000 Students Included
In Statistics Containing
Data On Student Illness
Lying neatly indexed in the Health
Services files are the complete medi-
cal records of every one of the 75,-'
000 students who have attended the
University si e 1919. Only the fold-
ers of the 15,000 students who are in
present attendance are kept in the
active files in the outer office, while
the others are -stored in two sizeable
storerooms filling the shelves, run-
ning from floor to ceiling.
Included in each folder is the stu-
dent's picture, his health background,
the findings 6f his freshman exam-
ination, and the detailed notations of
his various medical treatments at
the Health Service. At the end of
each year the whole filing system is
rearranged. The' graduates and
those who have left school are weed-
ed out. All students ar given a rela-
tive health rating which governs
their campus activities and if the
Health Service wishes to see a stu-
dent a flag is affixed to his card, a
blue flag for one month, a red flag
for six months, and 'a green flag for
a year.
These files, since they contain such
complete data on so large a number
of individuals, are a very valuable
source of statistical information. A
separate file is kept of all students
who have ever had tuberculosis and
an exhaustive tabulation has been
made on the prevalence of the various
functional diseases, childhood, ill-
nesses, allergies, and other disord-
ers. A careful check is made of all
deaths of students on record and
when this division of the file be-
conies fairly large, a study will be
undertaken on the causes of death.
Insurance companies and other or-
ganizations often request information
from the Health Service records but
'this is never grantd unless accom-
panied by the written consent of the
