SAYS NO MAN CAN DO ALL HIS READING AND KEEP WELL

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Any man who attempts to do all his outside reading is pretty sure to ruin his health," said an instructor in the English Department, who has reasons for not permitting the publication of his name. "A Sophomore friend of mine has been given a week's vacation to get over a case of nervous prostration, contracted in an attempt to do all the outside reading for English 41 and History 32.
