This fact and subsequent figures would prove all the more remarkable if the ratio could be given but the number' of Americans over here is, of course, not for publication. This gratifying record is regarded as a splendid tribute to the flotilla's senior surgeon who holds the rank of lieutenant-commander and his two as- sistants, junior surgeons, who rate as lieutenants. Sixty-two operations under general anaesthesia have been performed by this trio since the arrival of the first of the American destroyers over herej lastspring. The majority of these were abdominal operations. And all were dne without a single case of in- fection, a noteworthy point. In the same period there were 189 minor op- erations. These were done under lo- cal anaesthesia. The medical work consisted chiefly of the care and treatment of respira- tory diseases due to exposure from in- clement weather, cold and dampness, and sea watches in rough weather. There has also been a considerable amount of laboratory work. The general health of the Americans continues excellent, despite the rigors of the raw, depressing climate pecu- liar to the south coast of Ireland. They miss the dry, crisp weather of the northern part of the United States. The dampness hereabouts causes colds to be contracted easily and weakened constitutions crack under the strain. A few of such men have been sent back to the United States but the greater majority of the sailors are in better health than in time of peace. lents of the University of Michigan nspect our new line of very smart models in oung Men's Top-coats oung Men's Gabardines oung Men's Suits CLASSES FOR INSTRUCTION, GIN MONDAY AT GYM- NASIUM 100 WOMEN CHOSEN FOR REGISTRATION CLASSES BE. ored garments every one of them. s.

College len Hake Capable Officers Out of the 65 men sent back into the ranks this week from Camp Custer's training camp none were college men sent from their universities to try out for commissions. The general weeding out of the phy- sically and mentally inefficient was rigorous in the extreme, both pri- vates' and officers' training camps suf- fering alike. Among those dismissed were several aliens who, according to the ruling of, the war department, are not eligible. for commissions if their application for citizenship can not be completed by May 1. This ruling includes all aliens whether friendly or otherwise. U. S.

MEDICAL MEN WILL COMBAT DISEASE IN CIVIL LIFE "T!'uberculosis is one of th^ JhoSt serious diseases with which the army has to deal," stated Dr. E. R. Van der Slice, medical director of the Michigan Anti-tuberculosis associa- tion yesterday. "This association plans to care for all those soldiers who are discharged from the national army cantonments because they have contracted tuber- culosis and will have them undergo medical examination and treatment. They will be examined by the lung experts in Ann Arbor and in other cities throughout Michigan who have volunteered their services for this pur- pose. All men will be given a thorough examination including an X-ray ex- amination. Whenever it is necessary because of the advanced stage of the disease, these soldiers will be placed in sanitariums or in their own homes if conditions permit. If the disease is not too far advanced and an ordinary civil occupation will not aggravate the condition the men will be urged to take permanent civil positions. All men who are thus engaged in civil occupations will be urged to keep in regular touch with a doctor. They will, every two months, make temperature tests for two-week per- iods, and report to their doctors, who will in turn report to the Association. In this manner it can be determined whether the men should continue reg- ular work." So fai 200 men from the state o" Michigan have returned from camps from different parts of the country in a short time these wil be clasified. Mr. W. L. Cosper of New York city has recently been made executive sec- retary of the asociation which. posi- tion Dr. Van der Slise, the present medical director, held until recently.. Dr. William De Kleine of Flint- is pres- ident, and Dr. Victor C. Vaughan, dean of the Medical school and Dr. Aldred S. Warthin of the medical fac- ulty are members of the executive. committee.

All the com- panies who have qualified men, and nearly all of them have, are eagerly watching the performance of their representatives. The relay is perhaps arousing more interest than any other event.. The teams representing companies A and M of the First regiment, company C of the Second, and Headquarters have qualified for the finals. Since the championship is certainly going to be won by either company A, C, or Head- quarters, the relay is likely to play a very important, if not decisive, part in the final result. The entrants were thinned out last Saturday so that only a few are left in each event. The first five places will score, so that almost all those that qualified will stand an excellent chance of winning points. Ribbons will be awarded to all men who place, including five ribbons for the winners of the relay. All contestants must be on the floor at 3 o'clock sharp according to Dr. May. Since few heats will be. neces- sary the meet should run off in a much snappier manner than was the case last week, although the officials did remarkable work then, considering the number of entries on hand. Additional interest is taken in this meet, because of the fact that the basketball championship is to be de- cided tonight between company C of the Second and company A of the First. As both these companies have excellent chances of winning the meet, '20, Dorothy Williams, .'20, and Jea Maclennan, '19. Honor points are earned by ten m hikes, perfect attendance at gymna ium classes, making basketball team etc. Those receiving arm bands for ma ing the basketball teams were: Cla issa Vyn, '18, Louise Irish, '18, Beul Smith, '18,- Catherine MacNaughto '18, Virginia Cavendish, '18, Mar Macauley, '18, Dorothy Sample, '1 Jane Duemling, '19,; Doris V.
