IS SEEN BY DOCTOR
Influenza is making itself a ma¬
jor problem in some cities in Cali¬

to Dr. R. H. Brown, city schools

ous as the 1918-1919 type, it de¬
serves mention as an important
disease, Dr. Brown announced in
the health department bulletin
number 45, recently.
“Because of the ready communi¬
cability of the illness, students ex¬
hibiting signs of it — much the same
symptoms as an ordinary cold-
should be sent home and excluded
from school for at least a week,”
said Dr. Brown. “Upon return to
activity, there should be no physi¬
cal education for a period of at
least two weeks following complete
recovery.”

Principal Greets
New Students
At Pasadena
Cordial greetings and a
hearty welcome to all new stu¬
dents at Pasadena junior col¬
lege! We are happy to receive
you into our student body and
share with you the joy of living
and working together in the
friendly atmosphere of our col¬
lege campus.
Pasadena junior college stu¬
dents are guided by a spirit of
cooperation and good will rather
than by rules and regulations.
The few rules we do have are
important and appear elsewhere
in this issue of the Chronicle.
Study them carefully and let us
all unite in their observance. But
more important still let us cul¬
tivate ideals worthy of the re¬
spect and esteem of our entire
community. This is the spirit
of Pasadena junior college.
