Serum Culture Rushed From University to China
When serum bases made in Kansas can save the lives of thousands of war and disease plagued Chinese, it must be a small world.
Serum cultures prepared in the department of bacteriology under the direction of Noble P. Sherwood, professor of bacteriol-
ogy, are now being used bases for serums that are stopping the spread of plague in Cathay.
These cultures are being rushed from the University by air mail at the appeal of Wong Yau Wai, University graduate and now a technical expert in the serum and toxic laboratories of the national epidemic prevention bureau in the Republic of China. Many shipments of the serum have been sent to the inner province laboratories.
Wong Yau Wai took his graduate work in bacteriology under Sherwood and after receiving his M.A. degree returned to China to practice medicine.
The technique for preserving bacteria used in making these Chinese
serum shipments was perfected by Sherwood and Lewis L. Coriell, junior medic. A summary of the method was published in the Kansas State Medical Society Journal for December, 1937.

POUND AT ITALY--cautioned against over-optimism.
Closer to Porto Palermo
The situation in Albania was developing slowly. London reported that the Greeks had pushed two miles closer to Poro Palermo on the coast. However, Italian resistance stiffened on the central and northern fronts. There was heavy fighting in the Mokra mountains north of Pogradec where the Greeks were driving toward Elbasan, central Albanian Italian headquarters. The drive north of Argyrokaston was approaching Tepelini. Rome reported nothing on the Albanian war except that the Greek attacks were repulsed.

Who's Who at a House Party
THE CRINKLE CHEST (Every fraternity has one). He's miserable enough with his ancient off-color dress shirt, but when it buckles and leaves its mooring and goes "crinkle crunch," he dies a million deaths.
Since you can't keep him locked in the cellar, tell him about Arrow Shoreham, the soft pleated bosom dress shirt with the comfortable semi-soft collar attached, $3. See your Arrow dealer.
(For tails — *Arrow Kirk*, very smart, very smooth-fitting. $3.)
