Physical examinations are required
of all women planning to participate
in elective sports. Dr. Margaret Bell,
director of Physical Education for
women, will be in her office from 10
a.m. to 12 noon and from 2 to 4 p.m.
for such check-ups.
"This examination should be re-
garded as a privilege as well as a
protective measure," declared Dr. Bell.
"Beginning tuberculosis, heart les-
ions, tumors of various types in addi-
tion to many other significant con-
ditions which could be corrected by
treatment have been revealed in these
check-ups."
The University provides for extra
procedures indicated including X-rays
and laboratory tests. All questions
asked by the student during the ex-
amination concerning her hygiene
and health are answered.
Similar periodical examinations
given gratis to the policy owners by
the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com-
pany and the Life Extension Institu-
tion resulted in decrease in the sick-
ness and decrease in the death rate
of these persons. The improved
health of the policy owners returned
to the companies more than twice
the $500,000 invested by them in these
periodical examinations.
Check-ups as complete as the one
required by the University cost, de-
pending on the clinic, anywhere from
$25 to $100. Besides, the University
provides for the follow up tests.
"It is only to be regretted that every
student cannot be given this privil-
lege," Dr. Bell went on to say. "How-
ever, a great effort is made to en-
courage seniors to tale advantage of
this opportunity before leaving the
University."
