GREATEST D)EATH RATE AMONG, NEW RECRUITS STATISTICS COLLECTED BY DEANI VAUGHAN ON IN- FLUENZA . Statistics, that are being collected by Dean Victor C. Vaughan and Cap- tain George T. Palmer show that the greatest death rate in the camps, due to influenza, was among the unsea- soned recruits. In a certain camp where only 10 per cent of the total encampment was made of recruits more than 30 per cent of the deaths were found to be among these men. The reason for this may be attributed to several causes, states Dean Vaughan. Attacks Follow In the first place the camps which had a low death rate last fall had at- tacks of the epidemic although mild ones, during the preceding spring. The same was true of many of the cities having low death rates. Grand Rap- ids and Toledo were among the cities having the least increase over the normal death rate. Of course every camp which had the epidemic in the spring was not im- mune from it in the following fall due to the fact that many of the troops which had been there at the time of the first epidemic had been sent over- seas and, since it is the people that are not susceptible, not the locality, the new, troops that moved in were just as hard hit as though there had been no epidemic. Regulars Less Liable Another factor which in Dean Vaughan's opinion enters into consid- elation is the fact that the recruit, in the majority of cases did not know how to take care of himself and hence contracted the influenza and pneumo- nia. The regulars and the men who had been in the camps for some time knew, on the other hand, how to keep themselves in a healthy condition and did not get the disease. Dean Vaughan interprets these facts as a strong argument for universal military training of some sort and said that he felt that a period of camp training even though it be only for a period of three months would teach the average man to take care of him- self and thus decrease the amount of deaths through disease. He feels that three months is the shortest period of time that would be of practical value. PROPOSE ORIENTAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND! A plan of raising a fund for schol- arships for Hindu students who come to the University has been submitted to President Harry B. Hutchins by Nilkant R. Chavre, a special engineer in the University. Chavre has outlined his project in a letter to President Hutchins, and has asked his permission to raise a fund, from the interest of which the schol- arships will be given. The suggested plan states that the money would be collected from the people of the state and country by an Oriental scholar- ship committee, which would direct the campaign. Memberships would be sold on the share basis, each share to cost one cent a day, and as many shares as desired can be bought. period. After the required amount of ' money is secured the scholarship com- mittee of Ann Arbor would alliliate itself with a committee in Bombay, In- dia, which was lately organized. The work of the Bombay committee would then consider the applications for scholarships, the preference to be giv- en to women students of India. Ten scholarships are at present of- fered by the University for which wom- en students from India are eligible. The fund making these scholarships possible, was given in 1917 by Mr. Levi L. Barbour, a forler regent of the University.
