Norma Bryant who went to her home at Eureka Springs, Mo. because her brother was seriously ill has contracted influenza. Ruth Holmes, who has been visiting university friends, has returned to her home at Shenandoah. Ila Collins, Delta Gamma, spent the weekend at home in Faireld. W. V. Knoll, graduate student and assistant in the geology department las year, is here now. Mr. Noel left school last spring to engage in topographical work for the government. Newman club met last night at the K.C. Hall. There was a short program and games. All Catholic students in the University are welcome to the meetings. Helen Kriebs furnished a musical program Sunday afternoon at Currier hall. Ruth Nissen, L. A. ' 17, and a graduate student in mathematics last year, is here visiting her sister Mae and friends. Miss Nissen's school at Norway is closed because of influenza. Miss Eleanor Enright, matron of Currier hall has been summoned to her home at Janesville, Wis. because her father is critically ill. Miss McBride is entertaining her mother from Des Moines at Currier hall. Karl Volkmer, M. D. ' 92, of Davenport was here for the weekend. The junior class will have a mass meeting today at 4:30 in the liberal arts drawing room to nominate officers. Show your pep, come out. Make this the most representative ticket possible. Cecil Cross, Alpha Xi Delta, of Winterset was home for the weekend. Mrs. W. C. Campbell of Harlan was a guest at the Pi Phi house Wednesday. While she was in the city she spent a short time with her son, Hal, who left for Camp Pike last night. Dean C.E. Seashore head of hte department of psychology will give an address on mental health to the freshman girls Thursday in the liberal arts auditorium. Hesperian Literary Society announces the pledging, as an honorary member, of Emma C. Dumke of the public speaking department. The Maroons though beaten put up a classy contest against Yost's game between the two teams in thirteen years. As one puts it, Illinois is the strongest eleven in the west, Iowa is the surprising team of the Big ten. The same author says: "Iowa was surprising for the [?]eason that it downed the Gophers for the first time in history." Coach [?]ones must have a powerful team to [?]own the heavy Gophers, for while the dope of the season indicated that Williams was without his old time [?]even it was just as certainly known that he had had anything but a [?]eak team. So instead of excusing the Gophers one must praise Iowa. Notre Dame has the Michigan Aggies to battle next and the team will be given a hard week of work [unreadable] he considers the Aggies and strong as the Great Lakes eleven. [advertisement] ADMISSION $1.00 WAR TAX EXTRA INFLUENZA SITUATION IS STILL DANGEROUS "There is still danger of influenza," says Dr. D.C. Steelsmith, "and students should not needlessly congregate. The chief danger of influenza is in the early stages and is is then that members of the family should take strict precautions," he advises. There are now about forty cases of influenza. Three new ones developed yesterday among the women of the University. The epidemic will linger on for a month or six weeks is Dr. Steelsmith's opinion. Dr. Steelsmith is the new health commissioner of the University. All cases of illness among students must be reported to his office, telephone number 526. EVEN LORENZ DOESN'T KNOW IT HAPPENED Among the letters of condolence which Dean G. F. Kay sent to relatives of influenza victims was a letter to Mrs. Helming, mother of Lorenz Walters. Instructions were dispatched to the postoffice that the mail received for these men should be marked "deceased." A young man in khaki called at the dean's office yesterday and extended to Dean Kay one of his own letters of condolence and sympathy. Across the face of the note was written in a woman's handwriting: "We thank you for your kindly letter. This was the first information we had of our son's whereabouts since he first arrived in Iowa City several days ago." The dean looked puzzled until the young man said "My name is Lorenz Walters. I called to learn the particulars of my death and illness. Now Dean Kay is looking for the man who furnished him the list of students who had passed away. Capt. W.S. Brownell left Monday night for Alabama. His work will be in a base hospital. No one has been assigned to his work here yet. Coe's win over the Scarlet was the biggest upset of the Iowa games for the Tollenson team was supposed to be fair for they downed the Bulldogs 7 to 0. This win gives Coe the shade over the Cornell team in the next game between the two rivals. [advertisement] S.A.T.C.

Obie was in the S.A.T.C. and made an application for officers' school. After his graduation in 1913 from the law college he began the practice of law with a farm and Cedar Rapids, a partnership of railroad attorneys. He is remembered as an All Conference center for two years in football circles. He was a center on the Iowa team of 1911 and '12. His most remarkable feats were in his ability to drop kick and his best kicks were made in the Gopher game of 1912 when he sent the oval through the bars for two dropkicks, one from the fifty-one yard line and the other from the fifty-three yard line. This year he has helped the Iowa coach in getting the team ready for the big games, working with the line men and teaching them a few of his old tricks.

These study hours are held for the S.A.T.C. every day and evening except Saturday, when the students are granted a half holiday. On account of the signing of the armistice, the academic side of the work will be emphasized more than formerly. From the student's point of view the hours for supervised study are not to be dreaded at all, for occasionally they are allowed to write letters, or even spend the time in slumber.
