HEAT HAS NO TERRORS FOR
DR. MAY'S WILLING WORKERS
"Discipline and accuracy, brainwork
and 'pep.' You must have these to be-
come good gymnasts." Leading off
with this advice, and following it with
snappy commands, Dr. May led 40
summer students through a stiff set-
tins-up drill followed by work on the
parallel bars and in fencing, at Water-
man gymnasium, yesterday. The cool
wave has put mettle into the exercises,
and the daily work-out is becoming a
popuar feature of the summer session.
At 4:00 o'clock on Mondays, Wed-
nesdays and Fridays, the calisthenic
squad holds forth, while on Tuesdays
and Thursdays lectures are given on
the scientific side of gymnasia. This
course furnishes an excellent opportu-
nity for relaxation and scientific phys-
ical training. It is open to all summer
session students.
