Dr. Canuteson's suggestions concerning @XCUSeB =~

le oo hospital could retain all the slips written there
and at the end of each day we could collect them and
check against our absences «

2. A person from here could go over the daily record book
kept at the hospital with the clerk at the desk co
evening to list the excuses given out that day, but
Dr. Canuteson says it would take about an hour to do
this and he does not feel that his clerk could spare

%

3. Dr. Canuteson wuld like to see an arrangement worked
out whereby there would be no excuses. This is his
suggestion for that: A student is presumably in a
conditioning class 48 hours a semester (16 weeks, 3
hours a week). Allow him only three cuts. Then
provide a regular time for all make-up work, say —
each Saturday morning, and let the students make up
hour for hour every class they have missed so that
by the end of the semester they would actually have
had 45 howrs of conditioning.

Note: Dr. Canuteson would like to see a discontinuance of
the practice of classes going over to Hooh Auditorium
on extremely cold days. This endangers the health of
the boys, and rather than do that some doubling up
might be done in the gym.
