While Asian flu "is widespread throughout the state.'according to Dr. Mack I. ShanholtZ of the State Health Department, our campus [a experiencing only a mild incidence of 1'lu here. Reports from Dr. John G. Graziani, college physician, indicate that our infirmary has had an average of 35 bed patients during the past week. The highest number of students in the infirmary has been 44. At the present time, facilities on both the first and second floor of the infirmary are being utilized, Beds have also been set up in the sophomore ree, hut these are being used by those who are convalescing. In addition to our regular infirmary staff, there are two Other nurses working at this time. Dr. Graziani explained that he could see no reason for the possible ordering of a quarantine at this time since most everyone here has already been exposed to the flu. Considering flu epidemics on other campuses, President Lankford and Dr. Graziani concluded that our condition here is not very serious and that the number is very small here when compared to other colleges. Meanwhile out at our neighboring college, HampdenSydney, the flu situation stepped into a "much ado about nothing" spotlight due to a false report released to the Richmond Timcs-IHsjxitch last Sunday. The report is untrue that the students were to be quarantined this week. The facts and figures given in the news story were not issued by their college physician, according to a report from President Roberts.
Yours For The Asking-Publicity One of the major purposes of The Rotunda is to give coordination to all of our college activities. Your newspaper offers each organization the opportunity to give publicity through its facilities Most every organization on campus has a reporter. We are not necessarily asking that the reporters submit news stories, however we are asking that each reporter realize her duty of notifying our staff when there is need for a news release. The Rotunda now has a very large staff, including many reporters. If an organization at any time would like for a reporter to follow up their activities in our paper, it would be very much help to us if someone would notify our news editor, Bet McLoughlin, or drop a notice in The Rotunda box. This is only an effort to make sure that our news staff gives adequate publicity to all of the organizations. Our editors cannot always know about everything that is taking place on campus. It is our aim to increase interest in all activities here at LongWOOd, as well as The Rotunda. Any good leader of an organization should assume the responsibility of maintaining or creating interest in her organization. It is our duty to give full coverage, but we do need your help. Your cooperation and BUpport will be very much appreciated. The Editor

Super Sub! It's be*n said that the atomic submarine "Nautilus" stays submerged so long that it only surfaces to let the crew re-«nlist. Perhaps for this reason, the Navy has taken valuable space aboard the "Nautilus" for the only soft-drink vending machine In the entire submarine fleet. Naturally (or you wouldn't hear about it from IM) it's s Coca-Cola machine. And not unexpectedly, re-enlistments are quite respectable. Rugged lot, those submariners. Great drink. Coke!
