"Don't neglect your health by study-. ing too hard and too long during this week and next; it isn't worth it." Dr Nelson Smith, student medical adviser at the Health Service, voiced this warning in an interview yester- day. "It has been definitely proved," he continued, "that too much work and not enough sleep will result in fatigue. This goes hand in hand with inefficiency and you will find yourself spending an hour trying to get a half hour's work done." Students were also advised to divide their study periods with fifteen min- ute periods of relaxation. For ex- ample, when six hours have been set aside for study, work should be done in two hour periods with these re-' laxation intervals in between. Another thing which must be watched is eating regularly, Dr. Smith declared. Although it is true that one has less activity these days and needs less food, he should neverthe- less, eat his "three squares." Break- fast, especially, he said, should not be neglected as lunch and dinner us- ually come within five or six hours of each other, and a missed break- fast means about 18 hours without nourishment. After meals, one should relax be- tween a half and three-quarters of an hour, he continued. Studies are not the only important things in a col- lege education, he said, and this rest period can well be spent in reading the newspapers, playing a friendly game or just chatting. "Failure to take care of yourselves during this period is especially in- advisable because of the weather," Dr. Smith pointed out, "as colds and other respiratory diseases are preva- lent now, and because of exams it is very difficult to keep a student in the Health Service." Dr. Smith warned students against. taking coffee, tea or "keep awake" tablets in order to spend more time studying, as these contain stimulants which can be harmful when taken in large quantities.

Specifically, 62 per cent of the col- legians answered "yes" to the ques- tion, "Should Congress allow Fin- land to draw on her latestWorld War payment to the United States?" This study of sentiment in the American college world is one of the weekly polls conducted for The Daily. and other undergraduate newspapers that form the Student Opinion Surveys of America. A carefully-derived sample of students is used by the in- terviewers in measuring opinions of the nearly one and a half million U.S. collegians. Favorable sentiment was found in all parts of the country onthis pro- posal that President Roosevelt made recently, and controversy over the type of aid this country should give Finland hasalready flared in Con- gress. New England students are the most in favor, more than seven out of every ten approving, while those in the Far West are the least in favor., An interesting fact brought out by the Surveys in this and many other polls on international questions has been that people in colleges on the eastern coast are usually more inter- ested in the part the U.S. should play in the solution of Europe's troubles.
