The balloons, which will sell at 10 cents each, will be sent up at the start of the game. They will bear the colors of Michi- gan, yellow and blue, or the blue of old Eli. The festivities attending the bal- loon release will include the playing of a melody about balloons by the Band under the direction of Prof. William D. Revelli. Also participating in the. handling of the reelase will be the cheerlead- ers and 25 members of the ROTC, stationed in various parts of the Stadium. The helium used in filling the bal- lcons was shipped here from Kansas in 10 cylinders. The expense of get-j ting this gas, purchased through the government, necessitated the charge for the balloons, according to Mary May Scoville, '40, chairman of the project. The scheme is non-profit, she said, and all balloons must be sold in order to break even. Pr*of.

Foa, formerly of the University of Milan, is carrying on both clinical and experimental work in hypertension (high blood pres- sure). The clinical work conducted by Dr. Peet is a "thorough study of hy- l pertension patients before operation in hopes of finding some test which will determine before the operation what the probable result will be." As yet the doctor has not been wholly successful in finding the satisfactory rnd completely accurate test. All there is to work with at the present time, he said, is the degree to which the disease has advanced and the per cent of favorable cases in a simi- lar age group. In the group aged 20 to 30 he can estimate the probable improvement after operation at 75 per cent; but in all cases, that is, those from 20 to 50, only about 46 per cent of the patients show improvement in blood Kosher Sandwiches Anyti MITCHELL CED 1EaRATe 601 East Liberty Next to the Mi Try Us Once....

Those patients with bad kidneys or bad heart, or who are over 50 are not operated on. Some of the patients wno have been operated upon and released from the hospital are selected for further observation. Experimental research is 'carried on by Dr. Foa with animals. In the laboratory he produces hypertension in the animals and then studies the "factors producing this experimental hypertension and possible means to modify it." Recently Dr. Peet addressed a meet- ing at the conference of the Kansas 'City Southwest Clinical Society on the "Treatment of Hypertension by Splanchnicectoimy." The subject of his talk is the present method for treating high blood pressure and the recommended operative procedure is "supra-diaphragmatic bilateral ex- cision ;, fhe greater, lesser, and least splanchnib nerves and of the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth thoracic sym- pathetic ganglia."
