MIKKOLA TAKES FIVE TRACK RUNNERS TO FINNISH BATHS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Finnish baths would not come to the University, so Jakko Mikkola, assistant coach of the track team, took his distance men to the baths. Last Saturday afternoon after their workout Willard Tibbetts, Leo Ryan, Charles Harper, Robert Parker, and Lee Coombs were taken from Soldiers Field to Quincy, where one of the few Finnish baths in America is located.

This is the first time that any group of collegiate track men in America have been given this steam bath, but the University runners, unused to it as they were, went through the procedure like veterans. They are eager to return again, but their visit will be postponed until after the triangular Harvard-Dartmouth-Cornell meet on Saturday. It is hoped that the success of this experiment will move the authorities to install the proposed Finnish bath at Soldiers Field.
