PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Is Given Incapacitated Stu
dents of California
BERKLEY, Cal.—The Univer
sity of California's system of phy
sical education has been expanded
to Include students who have phy
sical defects, but are not neces
sarily required to forego all exer
tion conductive to building up
their bodies.
As Prof. Frank L. Kleeberger,
chairman of the department of
physical education, explained It:
"Many students who are incapa
citated In one way or another ap
ply for permission to be excused
from work in tills department be
cause they think that It Is Impos
sible for them to pursue such a
course. Yet they are anxious to
engage In something that would
border along athletic lines. After
we have secured permission from
attending physicians, we have in
many Instances been able to place
such students In special classes,
with results very gratifying."
University gymnastic teams In
recent terms have Included three
one-legged men. One student with
a withered arm has bcom adept at
bag punching.
"Physical education does not ne
cessarily mean physical exercise,''
said Prof. Kleeberger. "Many
times we recommend abstinence
from physical exercise and advise
certain regular living habits which
tend to build up the nervous sys
(em. Diet nlso plays an important
part.”
TREASURE HUNTS
Are Popular Near the Can
adian Boundary
TACOMA, Wash.—The days of
treasure seekers after pirate caches
may be gone for the storied South
Seas, but thy are Just beginning
for the residents along the ocean
beaches of this state. More than
one vessel, laden with liquor front
Rrltlsh Columbia and hound for
porta In Washington, Oregon and
California, has plied up on one of
the beaches as the result of gales
or tutor navigation or both.
Such a vessel soon Is pounded to
pieces by the stjrf and the liquor on
hoard burled In the sea or scatter
ed among the driftwood along the
shore to await the discovery of
treasure seekers.
The last rum-runner to suffer
such a fate was the halibut boat
Alfa, loaded with 212 rases of whis
key and gin. It Is believed that the
Alfa was headed for Willapa Har
bor, north of the Columbia river.
A storm buffeted the craft and
evidently opened up her seams. To
save themselves the crew headed
for the beach at high tide. They
escaped, leaving the Alfa at the
mercy of waves and sand, llefore
custom officers arrived much of the
liquor had been removed, and the
rest of the cargo could not be sal
vaged beoauso the waves had dug
a "grave’* for the vessel. Rut the
sea gradually will work the wreck
Into the beach and put the liquor
within reach of Industrious nnd
thirsty treasure hunters.
