This, at least, is the assertion of Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, state health director, who points out that fifty per cent of half a million sup- posedly healthy people examined in New York during the last fifteen years were found to have defects serious enough to make correction essential to continued good health. At this rate there are new three and one-half million people in Illinois who need to see the doctor. "Leaving sick folks out, every other adult person has some sort of physical impairment sufficiently serious tec need medical attention," said Dr. Rawlings. "This conclusion is reached by the Life Extension Institute of New York which has examined 500,000 supposed- ly healthy people during the last fifteen years. "Out of the whole group none were found to be perfectly free from de- fects. Ten per cent had only slight impairments while 40 per cent had moderate defects that manifested no particular necessity for medical at- tention." CRUISE Empress of Australia from New York, Dec. 1 This is the one with the eventful itinerary. Honorary fetes and dances here and there. The fa- mous Christmas celebration in the Holy Land. New Year's Eve, as nowhereelse but Cairo. Plum- blossom time in Japan. Beppu and other ports new to world- cruisers -- and all the old ones, too. It's an inspired itinerary -- ask for it, now, while you can still get the preferred rooms. R. 8. ELWORTHY, Steamship General Agent, 71 E.

GRID SQUADS Varsity and Reserves Both Face Stern Competition on 1928 Card One of the hardest schedules that a Northwestern team has ever been called upon to face is in store for Coach Dick Hanley and his aides when they prepare for the coming fall football season. Conference games with such teams as Minnesota, Illinois, and Ohio head- line the schedule while at the same time Purdue and Indiana which have displayed surprising strength in the last several years can be counted as first class competition. The above five teams comprise the conference opponents which according to present predictions constitute about the tough- est quintet in the conference for next fall. Dartmouth, the Big Green team of the east will journey to Evanston for the finale of the season. Coach Haw- ley's team is expected to be one of the outstanding elevens in the cast and will come west with the intention of adding another defeat to the one administered Chicago several years ago. Early season games with Butler and the University of Kentucky are not expected to be of the easiest. Both these clubs have what is reputed to be their strongest teams in years and are bent on humbling their conference opponent. Butler opens the season here on Oct. 6 and Ohio will be here on Oct. 13. Then appears Kentucky the following weekend. Added to the above contests will be a second-team schedule of five games in which the Wildcat reserves will meet Loyola University varsity, Notre Dame reserves, Illinois re- serves, Indiana reserves and Carroll college varsity. This team will be coached by Herb Steger, former cap- tain at Michigan and for the last sev- eral years an assistant coach at North- western. Northwestern's schedule follows: October 6--Butler at Evanston; Loyola varsity vs. Northwestern re- serves. October 13--Ohio State at Evanston. October 20--Kentucky at Evanston; Notre Dame reserves vs. Northwest- ern reserves. October 27--Illinois at Urbana; Illi- nois reserves vs. N.U. reserves at Ev- anston. November 3--Minnesota at Evans- ton. November 10--Purdue at Evanston; N. U. reserves vs. Carroll college re- serves. November 17--Indiana at Blooming- ton; Indiana reserves vs. N. U. re- serves at Evanston. November 24--Dartmouth at Evans- ton. Strawberry Ice Cream, Peach Sherbet and Vanilla
