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.
