Allergens Are Cause of Much
Suffering Among the Students
DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN
you're in group one along with 12%
of the campus .
Group two embodies those persons
who report family sensitivity and
sensitivity to those allergens in them-
selves and contains 25% of the cam-
pus. If your family shows positive
signs of alley gies, but you don't, you're
in group four with 18% of the cam-
pus. These are the three groups the
Allergy Clinic is interested in and if'
you fall in them you will probably
be sent a farm letter advising sensiti-
zation tests which are given free to
students.
The other two groups include 42%
of the campus and are those who have
checked no symptoms of illness lead-
ing one to suspect them as sensitized
people and whose family isn't allergic.
Of 869 cases treated last year, the
highest per cent were sufferers of
hay fever, and the Clinic cured 83%i
of those treated for this malady.
Many men are found to be allergic to
women, or at least to the perfume,
lipstick and silk clothing they wear.

If you wish to finance the purchase
of a home, or if you have purchased
improved property on a land contract
and owe a balance of approximately
60 per cent of the value of the prop-
erty, the Investment Office, 100
South Wing of University Hall, would
be glad to discuss financing through
the medium of a first mortgage. Such
financing may effect a substantial
saving in interest.
