THE MICHIGAN .DAILY FRI AY, lEC. 11, 1942 ____._,._ .. a _ - 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.
