Scarlet Fever Bug Menaces Men Who Played Groton

Thirty Freshmen have been exposed to scarlet fever as a result of the game played at Groton on November 2 by the Second Freshman football squad, it was announced at the Hygiene Building yesterday.

A Groton student was in the school infirmary with scarlet fever at the time, causing the Noble and Greenough team to cancel its game with Groton, but Harvard replaced the Dedham school on the Groton schedule.

Many of the Harvard players have been examined, but no cases of the disease have turned up. The period before the fever can show itself will elapse on Sunday. Paul H. Means '17, Medical Adviser, has asked that men consider it an obligation to report immediately any sore throat, fever, or headache, symptoms of scarlet fever.
