Ames, Iowa, March 20-II's a new racket on the campus—that of smuggle radio music into the study rooms of the Men's dormitory. Ames Students Smuggle Radio Sets Into Men's Dorm Two years ago it was permissible to operate radios in the rooms until 7:30 in the evening. Then last year it was allowed to operate headphones could be used in the storm. It all started two years ago when a freshman, looking for subjects for English themes, hit upon the idea of condemning the use of radios in the dormitory rooms. He fairly outdid himself and so vividly pictured the radios as he did. He wrote that the argument to the theme over the to college authorities. Properly horrified, they banned all radios except those using headphones. The headphone arrangement wasn't so good either. Some of the discontented members started hanging the headphones in the showers. This made the place reverberate with music and last fall the faculty banned all radios. Today there are five outdoor aerials and nearly as many radios as there ever were. Although a sleuth might find nothing more than a pair of headphones, the radios are still in use. Usually they are small homemade sets. They are in trunks, dressers or study table drawers ready to be used after a moment spent in hooking them up. Several are unhidden. One indoor aerial is woven into the curtain. Another aerial wire runs across the moulding and window frame top, and serves as a wire to hang a picture and then leads down behind the book shelf to the set in the desk drawer.

On authority estimates that there are 200,000,000 addicts to the drug in the world. Cannabis, while it has been found useful for medicinal purposes, is not prescribed extensively because the quality of the drug varies considerably. The female plants when grown alone yield a much better product than when the male plants are allowed to grow up with them. One method of testing the strength of a particular sample of the drug is by using a specific concentration of inco-ordination produced by a given amount is a fairly accurate test of its strength. Marijuana is said to deaden the senses and sometimes to produce insanity, especially after continued use. So harmful is the drug considered by the state of Kansas that at the last regular session of the legislature a law was passed making the cultivation, possession, or sale of it a felony punishable by from one to five years in the state penitentiary and a maximum fine of $1,000. For some diseases or disorders Cannabis is preferable to opium, for it does not upset organic functions as much as does the latter. The framers of U.S. Pharmacopoeia now permit the use of Cannabis.

"It was a gorgeous finals to a great season of indoor racing in which, beater only once, Cunningham won three races in the Garden and lost only by inches to Bontonhain in a mile contest that was as much a match of wits as a match of speed. The last time Cunningham here, at the Nationalists, raced to a new world's indoor record of 3:52.2 for 1,500 meters. "The stalwart Kansan, whose legs were badly burned in a schoolhouse fire when he was a boy, has been the foremost American middle-distance runner of the last two years, challenged only by Bonthron. He first rose to national and world fame when he won a place on the American Olympic team in 1932." "Cunningham, with the exception of the second quarter, never decreased his speed. He was first drawn out by Nordell of New York University who was a martyr to the cause and had drop out two laps from the end. "Five laps from the end, the eleventh lap, Cunningham took the lead and increased his lead 15 yards in the oval. He had a 22 yard lead before Venkate added after him, but Cunningham finished just as strong as Venkate did. "Venze's time for the time was 4:11.8 while John Follows of the New York A C. finished third in 4:14.2.
