24 WINNETKA TALK September 8, 1928 Single Game Tickets Now or: Sale for Purple Games Applications for single game tickets for the six home games on Northwest- ern's football schedule are now being received and will continue to be ac- cepted until the supply is exhausted. The season ticket sale which has been in progress for several months will also continue until the allotment of such seats has been sold. Over 10,000 sea- son tickets have already been sold and it is expected that the allotment of 17,000 will be gone soon. A very limited supply of Dartmouth tickets are still available and, accord- ing to the ticket office, the only sure way of obtaining tickets for this game is through 'the purchase of season tickets. The limited supply of tickets for this game has made necessary holding each individual order to two tickets only for this game. There is no limit to the number of season tickets which any one person can purchase as long as the supply lasts. These tickets are within the goal lines and give to the holder the same seat at each of the six home games. Two second team games with In- diana and Illinois are not included in the season tickets. These games are played when the varsity teams are playing at Bloomington and Urbana. The Northwestern scheduls of home games follows: October 6--Butler. N. U. 2nd team vs. Loyola varsity. October 13--Ohio State. October 20--Kentucky. N. U. 2nd team vs. Notre Dame 2nd team. November 3--Minnesota (Homecoming.) November 10--Purdue.

Rawlings, state health director. Score sheets embrac- ing more than 100 items will be used to rate the degree of health protec- tion and instruction which each school affords the children. Field work on the project will start soop after school begins this autumn, a dozen important schools having been selected for the initial study. Tolerate Health Hazards "Some schools are tolerating seri- ous health hazards and don't know it," Dr. Rawlings declared. "Others have installed medical and nursing services but feel they are not getting the an- ticipated results. Some school boards hire a doctor, a dentist and a nurse and forthwith conclude that the health problem of the rising generation has been solved so far as the school is concerned. "The investigation proposes to dis- cover the facts in every case and bring them clearly to the attention of the school officials, the parents and the community. A score sheet, or apprais- al form as the workers call it, has been devised so that any school may be studied in a way that will bring out all the facts relating to health problems and whether or not they have been met and with what success. Describe Appraisal Form "The appraisal form is divided into three sections, each allowing 100 points for a perfect score. One is de- voted to the buildings, ground and equipment from a sanitary standpoint. Lighting, ventilating, heating, cleaning, recreation, seating and sanitary facili- ties are embraced in this section and the thirty-three items ranging from I to 5 in value make up a possible score of 100. "Another section deals with the school health service and embraces such things as medical, dental and nursing work. Correction of defects discovered and the grasping of oppor- tunities to prevent disease through vaccination and other means are given a preponderance of weight in the 100 points required for a perfect score in this section. "A third section, also valued at 100 points, relates to the curriculum courses of study on health. A total of 38 questions in this section will give the investigator a very clear idea of just what classroom instruction on health is being attempted and how well it is succeeding. "The first studies contemplated will be made by state health officials who have had wide experience in this type of work but the appraisal form has been arranged so that any superintend- ent or principal or patron may use it to discover the facts concerning his own school. All items embraced in the appraisal form are being successfully applied in Illinois schools." BACK FROM WEDDING TRIP Mr. and Mrs. Harold Foote Gosnell have returned from their honeymoon and now are settled in their new home at 5535 Kimbark avenue, Hyde Park. Mrs. Gosnell was Miss Florence Fake of 905 Vernon avenue, Glencoe, a teacher in the Hubbard Woods school. Mr. Gosnell is assistant professor of political science at the University of Chicago.
