might as well be spring—if it can't for these professors. When students are dreaming of moonlight long rides in the country, profess expect them not only to read philosophy but also to under-suit. Cheer up, when the spring ever bite hites the faculty they get at the old fishing pole and allasses are dismissed. Of course is only rumor but we can dream, 'we?

To Newlyweds— 'Keep Your Mouths Shut'

Mrs. Esther Dudgeon will be in charge of the refreshments and Mrs. Bernita Mansfield will have charge of the program.
KU Dames To Give Reception
Los Angeles (UP) — Henry Burton, 89, and his wife, Emma, 88, married for 70 years, today advised newlyweds to keep their mouths shut.
"Too much talking can get any-one into trouble," they said.
The Burtons, married in Osage City, Kan., March 1, 1876, have five sons, two daughters, 21 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
Actress Wants Frock, Not Maternity Smock
Hollywood, (UP)—Fay Marlowe,
who wanted a dramatic screen role
and lots of fancy clothes to wear,
showed us in despair that her wardrobe
for her latest picture includes only maternity gowns.
"Oh, they're very fashionable,
she admitted bitterly, "the most fashionable maternity gowns they make. But I wanted something sleek!"
"At the climax, I give birth to twins."
She also has a dramatic role, she added.
The picture is "Johnny Comes Flying Home," at 20th Century-Fox, and Miss Marlowe plays a wife who is worried about the future of her husband in commercial aviation
"The role is fairly good, and I'm satisfied in that respect," she said. "But look what I have to wear."
"Johnny Comes Flying Home" is the fourth picture for the 20-year-old actress, who was "discovered" playing in the University high school production of "Our Town." She is an ambitious young lady.
"At first I wanted to be an opera singer," she said. "My parents were unenthusiastic about that—and they were so right. It was just a passing fancy."
Then, she said, she took piano lessons and decided to become a concert pianist. That too turned out to be "a phase."
"After that ice skating intrigued me, and I even skated in exhibitions in Los Angeles. But the excitement of that soon passed.
"Now I've settled down to become a dramatic actress—and that definitely is not a passing fancy."
Besides taking drama lessons after studio hours, the enterprising Miss Marlowe is preparing for possible roles in the current cycle of film musicals by taking singing lessons from Nathan Stewart, who is also the coach for Ginny Simms.
"But that's only preparedness," she declared. "One thing about a musical, though—if you're going to sing and dance, they've got to give you something beside a maternity dress to wear."
Dr. and Mrs. Gilmer Laffoon, Kansas City, Mo., have announced the engagement of their daughter, Becky Lu, to James Figgens, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. James P. Figgens, Kansas City, Mo.

How to Stay Out of the Hospital
Statewide Activities Meets
County club chairmen of the Student Statewide Activities association discussed plans for sending out University display boards to Kansas towns at a meeting in Green hall last week.
By R. I. CANUTESON, M.D.
(Director, University Health Service)
--in most cases the infection, in varying degrees of severity, is confined to the feet where it produces sealing or cracks or little blisters. Next common area involved is the groin. Occasionally the hands and nails become infected.
You don't have to be an athlete to have athlete's foot, and this pestiferous skin infection is not confined to the feet.
Fungus infections may involve any part of the body. They are commonest on the feet as athlete's foot, more accurately called dermatophytosis; in the groins as gym ich; and on various parts of the body including the face and scalp as ringworm, more commonly seen in children.
These are the commonest skin diseases found among college students. They are difficult to cure; usually they are controlled rather than cured.
Product of mass activity of barefoot people, fungus infestation thrives in warm moist places such as gym showers and dressing rooms, swimming pools and on the floors of bedrooms. With the infection is an almost unavoidable hazard of college life. On the body the infection also prefers moist areas.
AT THE HOSPITAL
Fortunately not all people are susceptible. Surveys by means of cultures taken from the feet have shown that as high as fifty percent of college students may be infected. Probably the rate is as high or higher in other groups, particularly in military forces, but most of the data has been collected in college health services.
Last year 175 cases were treated in our health service. The infection is twice as frequent in men as in women. Men frequent the gymnastium more than women. They are more apt to engage in sports and clothing are heavier. And undoubtedly women are more particular about personal cleanliness.
Multitudes of sure cures for athlete's foot are advertised. The fact that so many remedies are recommended indicates that none is sure.

The prime requisite for the control of fungus infections is cleanliness—of person and of surroundings. Fancy disinfectants are not essential. Soap and hot water and plenty of elbow grease do the job best.
If the feet were as well cared for as the hands the incidence of athlete's foot would drop sharply. Or if all shoes were toe-less and heel-less. And if sandals were worn where the infection is apt to be harbored.
As for treatment, simple remedies used regularly are effective for the mild cases. At night careful soap-water-brush washing of the affected areas, dry well and apply any one of several good antiseptics advised by your doctor. During the day keep the parts dry with powder. More serious cases and those that become secondarily infected require medical supervision.
If your fungus infection was a part of your college experience, don't take it with you. You can control, if not cure, athlete's foot.
