Wednesday, November 18, 1964 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 yock, Eas Ways . . . ...To Ccsftch A Cold How to catch a cold, or I love sneezing, nasal stuffi ness, watery eyes, and a run ny nose was the subject of an article published in The Journal of the American Med ical Associaeion last May. The article said thai' most people catch two or t h r a e colds a year. According to two leading doctors, no matter what climate you move to, you can't avoid the nation's No. 1 sickness. If you really want to catch more than your quota of colds this year, there is a good check list o fthings to do. First, forget about eating the right foods every day. Don't bother to go to bed at a reasonable hour in fact, be sure you're really exhaust ed, always on the go. When it's damp and rainy, make a point of getting thoroughly soaked and chilled. Associate with "the right people": hang around anyone who sniffs, sneezes or coughs especially if they don't cov er their mouths. Of course, you shouldn't take any tablets that might help you. Re sure not to stay in bed; and don't call a doc tor. If you try hard enough, you might even turn your cold into a good case of double pneumonia. Since sleep is good for you, forget it. Start by cutting your eight hours to six, then go down to four. When shut-eye is replaced by bloodshot orbs, you're on your way to cold catching fatigue. Ignore the weather. Wear a light coat on frosty days, and no coat at all when it's nippy out. You realize, of course, that overshoes and rubbers are out. Don't even bother with them. Try to remember that one sneeze can spray 20,000 virus bearing droplets up to 12 feet at a speed of 150 feet per second. You can easily see the logic in staying in crowds and as close to cold sufferers as possible. ; fyou're really enthused about this method, you'll be glad to know that the infected droplets can linger in the air as long as half an hour after the sneeze. When you see someone with, a cold, watch carefully at what he touches and contam inates. Then move in Run madly through the room fing ering the objects he may have infected. Don't wash your hands before meals. Then, just sit back and wait patiently- Once you are flat on your back, don't jeopardize your misery by calling a physician or taking any reputable aids. Really! Who wants to relieve sneezing, nasal stuffiness, wa tery eyes, runny nose, aches, pains and fever? Rather, you should listen to old wives' tales, and increase your misery. Submerge your feet in hot water that has been boiled with onions. Eat licorice. For those who prefer the doing nothing to get through a siege of cold pains, wrap a cloth containing a salted herring around your neck. Slightly gooier than this but great for those with a sweet tooth and a strong stomach, is the singular syrup made from garlic and brown sugar candy. Dr. John Thompson, chief of Community health educa tion at the University, said these are excellent methods for catching a cold. However, he said, Student Health frowns on this sort of thing. In a serious vein, Thompson said that the educational pro gram at the University is tak ing in most of the living units on campus. He said that dor mitories have been better about cooperating than the fraternities and sororities. The fraternities have not re sponded this year, he said, while relatively few of t h e sororities have either. ' . Thompson said that health counselors are made of the regular counselors in the dorms, and the presidents of houses. These persons are not trained as doctors, he said, but can take care of minor sniffles. He said that for tempera tures over 100, and persistent coughs which keep students awake at night, Student Health urges students to come in for treatment. "However," he added, "we do not try to foster depend ency on Student Health for every little cold." "We couldn't keep any doc tors if every student with a cold came running over here," he said. Thompson said that he felt that a deficiency at the Uni versity which is responsible for a great many sore throats and colds is the lack of mois eure in the living units. "There just isn't enough mois ture in the atmosphere in this kind of weather," he said. Groups Yell Out At Sheldon Rally Bass horns, cheer leaders. balloons and stadium horns were silhouetted on the steps and doors of the University's cultural center, Sheldon Art Gallery Friday night. The Gamma Phi Betas and Delta Tau Deltas were chosen the winners of the "Yell Like Hell' contest for their yell, "We'll yell like hell, we'll fight like hell, They'll fall like hell. Kill!" Other yells echoed from the curved arches of Sheldon: LOOK WHAT I FOUN&.HKE'S A BRAND NEuJ $HlRT THAT VOUVE NEVER WORN... "Here come the cowboys rid ing up the draw . . ." and "Beat 'em good Bie Red.
