"We cannot be sure that a man who drinks moderately will never drink to excess,” said Dr. Ross, "but we can be sure that one who never drinks at all will not become a drunk ard, and so it seems wisest not to drink. It is a small price to pay for freedom from alcoholism.” Dean Attends Confab Dr. Carl P. Schott, dean of the School of Physical Education and Athletics, attended the annual State convention of the Y. M. C. A. in .Hershey yesterday. Dean Schott •has been a member of the State Exe cutive Committee for the past three years. At Hershey, he served as chair man of the Physical Work Committee.
