-once at the time of the beginningI
of the first Five-Year Plan and once
since then.
The sponsoring committee is a
newly-organized group in Ann Arbor,

ing and other civilian aid to the
Russians.
Prof. Stanley Dodge of the geology
department is chairman of the group,
which is composed largely of faculty
members and members of the Uni-
versity Hospital staff.
in the near future the Ann Arbor
organization intends to become af-
filiated with the national Russian
War Relief, Inc., It also intends to
bring here a large number of well-
known speakers who have agreed to
cooperate with the national organ-
ization. pp
Endorsers of the activity include
noted movie stars, businessmep, edu-
cators, Congressmen, authors, doc-
tors 'and clergymen.

statistical report for September-Oc-
tober which reveals an otherwise nor-f
mal period.f
Twenty-six pneumonia cases were
officially reported. This figure is in
.tartling contrast to the four cases1
occurring in the same period lastj
year. In 1939 the figure was closer
but still only'half of this year's count
with 13 patients treated,
No apparent explanation could be
sound for the increase since the num-
ber of colds treated, 1,197, was even"
less than last year's 1,332 and the

formed the chairman of the carriers
conference committees.-
Rail managemept offered no com-
ment.
The operating brotherhoods de-
manded 30 per cent more pay, their
lowest bracket now being $5.06 a day.
President Roosevelt's emergency fact-
inding board recommended a 7/2 per
sent increase for these mgn, but the
unions flatly rejected that proposal
and called the strike, which had been
&uthorized by the membership s
?arly asSept. 5.
Meanwhile in Chicago local unions
representing more than 250,000 truck
grivers in 11 midwest\ states have au-
tholizedna strike which would begin
Sunday morning unless a last-min-
ute,. agreement with operators werq
reached, Frank Brown, a Chicago of-
cicial of the AFL International

led today.
Brown added, however, the union
nen had asked for mediation by the
Xffice of Production Management
nd it was expected an OPM repre-
entative would arrive tomorrow. The
jispute is over wage increase de-
mnands.
An agreement between the drivers
and some 800 employes expires Sat-
urday, Nov. 15. The drivers several,
months ago demanded an increase
from 3 cents to 5 cents per mile, also
from 80 cents to $1.05 an hour in the
additional pay for pickups and deliv-
eries.

Dr. Warren E. Forsythe. director
of Health Service. warned that only
careful treatment of colds by ade-
quate rest and the prevention of fur-
ther chilling can cut down on more
serious developments from the colds,
He advised students with bad colds
to report to Health Service.
A rather puzzling increase in the
number of cases of infectious mono-
nucleosis, a 'mysterious glandular fe-
ver, has appeared in the las$t few
years. There were 20 cases detected
during the September-October peri-
od this year as compared to 13 last
year and 6 the year before.
Figures from former annual rec-
ords reveal an upward trend with 56.
79 and 110 cases for 1938,'1939 and
1940 Dr. Forsythe said the rise may
be ascribed possibly to the ability of
doctors to recognize the illness bet-
ter. The symptoms are general fever
with enlarged lymph glands.
Pispensary calls for the period ran
up to 20,074 comparing evenly with
the 20,031 calls of last year. About
100 more bed patients were treated
than in 1939 and 1940 witfi 362 cared
for this year as against 261 and 266
previously.
Student deaths are well ahead of
the usual four or five per year with
threefatalities already reported. Two
accidental deaths occurred during the
Summer Session and more recently
a student succumbed to a heart at-
tack. None of the victims was treated
by Health Service.
