Lim-Yuen is general chairman and Miss Chao and Chen vice-chairmen of the Committee of the Double Ten Ball. All University students are invited to participate in the commemoration of the Chinese anniversary by attending the formal dance from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday evening, in the ballroom of the League. The dance represents the annual effort of University Chinese students to raise funds for purchase of medical and relief supplies needed in war-torn China.

Picture a car driving up alongside. its occupants beini on a mission of greatest seriousness and good will. As the car stops and a man jumps out to accost the freshman, she takes to her heels and races madly down the street, pathetically crying, 'Ma- ma! ", as the man climbs .wearily back into the car with a perplexed expression on his face. This is the Gargoyle staff, merely trying to obtain photographs of the faircr of the new students for their first issue of the year, with no intent at frightening anyone. Estimates to date have placed the time of appearance of the October Gargoyle at Thursday, oct. 23, when staff members will approach students on campus with the campus life monthly, priced at 15 cents a copy. Besides carefully selecting models for the aforementioned feature from a list of 678 names submitted, and ultimately obtaining the pictures, the "Garg" staff has prepared a poll upon a question of international impor- tanceto patrons of the old "skin game." The question: "How do youl peel a banana?" These are only two of the sections to be offered students this 'moni h.I Besides these there will be a special feature on the engineering school, whicl. will initiate a series in which one school or college is featured in each month's issue. Orientation, the usual advice to be- wildered freshmen and an article 'on the physical examination for men are among the other features which will reach the public when the first Gar- goyle comes onto the newsstands Oct. 23. TwininF To Open Scouting Classes NROTC Head To Talk Today Capt. Davidson Will Open Naval Lecture Series "The First Line of Defense" w*Il be discussed by Captain Lyal A. Da- vidson, USN, chairman of the de- partment of Naval Science and Tac- tics, at 7:15 p.m. today in Room 348, West Engineering Building. This lecture will be the first of a series of, 15 talks on the Navy to be presented this semester by the De- partment of Naval Science and Tac- tics. Described in these lectures, held every Tuesday, will be the organiza- tion of the Navy, its customs and traditions. Discussed as well will be naval law and regulations of ship types on offense and defense and influence and trends in naval- arma- ment. Allinterested students and facuty members are invited to attend the series. It is intended particularly, however, for officers or prospective officers of the Naval Reserve. Captain Davidson is leaving Ann Arbor Oct. 13 to serve, for the rest of the month, on a Washington re- election board. The next lectures in the series will be given by other offi- cers stationed in Ann Arbor or vicinity. Raiy Weather Brings Uual Cold Onslaught Changing weather conditions have resulted in the usual onslaught of colds this fall, Dr. Warren E. For- sythe, director of Health Service i.., ports. No advice other than to use com- mon sense in dressing to meet the shifting climatic conditions was of fered by Dr. Forsythe who warns particularly against getting over- heated or chilled. The common belief about exercis- ing and trying to sweat a cold out is fallacious and may lead to compli- cations. Swimming is especially dan- gerous for those with colds since it may cause chilling or allow infections to enter the system via the nose-sinus route or swallowing of impure water. Best treatment consists in restrict- ing the activities and going, to bed. No medicines are known that will cure a cold although some may give tem- porary relief and make the patient more comfortable, Stocks of black pepper in the Uni- ted States approximate from .2 1/ to 3 years normal supply. (Note: This is the first in a series of articles describing the activities of the Washtenaw County Health De- partment.) I By HOWARD FENSTEMAKER Dr. Otto K. Engleke, director of the Washtenaw County Health De- partment, has numerous duties in coordinating the forces of medicine in this county in order that its citi- zens may derive maximum benefit from the Department. Vital facts pertaining to the con- munity,such as the number of bihhs and deaths, the amount of illness from communicable diseases and re- ports on specimens submitted to the state laboratory for examination must first be collected and analy od. The director must then mold the health department program to meet the community's particular needs, by organizing local resources, facilities and personnel and directing tieni toward the solution of community health problems. Dr. Engleke also acts as health of- ficer for the county, with full respon- sibility for admir lstration of the ,health laws of the state. His duties in this field include di- agnostic services to physicians, quar- antine of reported cases of communi- cable diseases, investigation of epi- demicM, provision of a, tuberculosis, program, provision of a venereal dis- ease program, and promotion of an adequate maternal health program. Health service for infants, pre- school and school children, including immunization agaitst diphtheria and smallpox," physical' examination and dental care of children must also be provided. The director reports regularly to the health committee of the board of supervisors the activities of the department and discusses with them programs for future work. Miscellaneous duties- which never- theless are of high importance to the maintenance of an adequate health department include contact with the public through the news- papers concerning the prevalence of communicable diseases and proposed health projects, addresses before meetings of cgpimunity groups on topics of public health, demonstra- tions and exhibits, and the prepara- tion of health department publica- tions. The director is primarily responsi- ble for a broad program protecting the health of all the eo leP in h=4 4110 hILMUh U Uil 4110 jrmLCr' 1n11l First in a series of four training community.
