PAGE TWO Physical Exams More Vigorous Students spent a large portion of last week taking physical exams. These exams were given by five medical students from Au gusta, who were on the campus from Tuesday through Thursday. The physical exam this year, in sharp contrast to past years, was much more complete. The exam included the conventional exami nations of eyes, ears, nose and throat, and adde'd were blood and Wasserman tests. Out of the student enrollment, 41 (i students were given the tho rough physical examination. According to a statement by Mr. Taylor, “The physical exams should prove of great importance to all students, as they will give students opportunities to correct any and all physical defects that they might have."

Soon after arriving, however, they had for gotten grittery and were deep in the attempt of analizing a more important feature of that region— Uncle Bob! They found that he has been here possibly longer than the grits —since 1915! Lessee thas’ about 23 years (an’ we gripe about 2!) He finds grits “tole’able well,” but pastry is his favorite. He’s a good man (who let Woodfin back?) An’ the remarkable part is that he’s never thought of a profession other than cooking and what’s more he’s absolutely satis fied to stay at W. G.

Any sophomore student having over twelve honor points must resign from enough clubs to lower the total to the maximum amount allowed, according to the new ruling. An honor points system has been in the Student Handbook for a number of years, but it has not been enforced. The purpose of these honor points is two-fold: to recognize merit, and to enable a greater number of students to engage in the extra-curricular activities. A member of the Activities Com mittee made it known that the amount of honor points for cer tain positions has been reduced. Sophomores are allow r ed a maxi mum of twelve honor points; freshmen are allowed a maximum of ten honor points.
