Students Report
Health Service

A slight decrease in the number of
new cases in the epidemic of an un-
known respiratory tract infection,
gave signs yesterday that it might be
abating.
"It seems to be retirir.g with con-
siderable reluctance," Dr. Warren E.
Forsythe. director of the Health Ser-
vice, stated.
The epidemic is now ending its
second week, after a temporary drop
in the number of cases aroused false
hopes for an early abatement last
week. From 10 to 15 students have
been reporting for treatment daily

p.m. Tuesday in the amphitheatre
of the Rackhem Building. This is
the first of a series of programs be-
ing arranged by Prof. Waldo M. Ab-
bot, director of the University Broad-

and unofficial estimates place the
number of affected students, includ-
ing those who did not report to the
Health Service, at more than 300.
All beds in both departments at
the Service are still filled, although
fewer students are reporting, and
therefore fewer being turned away.
No serious cases developed from the
mild but widespread sickness.

Psychologists Seen,
Important In Courts
Psychology experts may soon take
their place beside lawyers and judgess
in our American courtrooms, William
Stern, prominent North Carolina
psychologist, declared in a lecture re-
cently.1
He claimed that much of the evi-i
dence heard in our courts is defiveredi
under mental and emotional strain,
and that many unfair convictions are
made possible by faulty testimony.
It would be the duty of the psy-
chologist to examine this evidence and
to make reports to the court before
any verdict is rendered, Stern ex-i
plaiied.
