JE4IvaQJ SEROLOGY CHIEF: Kahn Test Still Effective In Current World Usage DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN , /C °' A test for the detection of syph- ilis developed by a University pro- fessor 31 years ago outranks all others currently being used in all parts of the world. Originated by Prof. Reuben L. Kahn, chief of the University Hos- pital's serology laboratory, the Kahn test is used in 58 countries, according to a report by the World Health Organization. Based on surveys of six regions of the world, the report indicated more than 400 important labora- tories still rely on the Kahn test. Two Basic Methods There are only two basic sci- Former Dean To Celebrate 90th Birthday Former dean of the University's Medical School, Dr. Frederick George Novy celebrates his 90th birthday today. Dr. Novy began his career as an assistant in chemistry at the Uni- versity in 1886 and retired as dean of the Medical School in 1935. Born in Chicago Dec. 9, 1864, Dr. Novy established the first anti- rabies station in the United States, located in Ann Arbor. Among his contributions to sci- ence are the discovery of the caus- ative agent of American relapsing fever and instrumental work in in- troducing public health inspection of water in Michigan. For his contributions, Dr. Novy was decorated with a chevalier in the Legion d'Honneur, inducted in- to the Order of the White Legion of Czechoslovakia and elected Hen- ry Russel Lecturer at the Univer- sity. NAACP Meeting Three faculty members will be guest speakers at a NAACP meet- ing at 7:30 p.m. today in the Lea- gue to discuss "Ways of Imple- menting the Supreme Court Deci- sion." Speakers will include Prof. Jo- seph E. Kallenbach of the political science department, Hubert M. Blalock of the sociology depart- ment and Prof. Daniel Katz of the psychology department.

"Tube flocculation" is the basis for the Kahn test while the other, "com- plement-fixation," is the principle of the Wasserman test. The World Health report listed 22 different tests, based on one of these two principles, used in laboratories around the world. After the Kahn test, which rank- ed first in 460 laboratories in 58 countries, came the Meincke test, ranked second in 156 labs in 20 countries and the Kolmer test (based on Wasserman principle), placed third by 153 labs in 24 countries. Iron Curtain Countries Although the report did not ex- tend into Iron Curtain countries, there is reason to believe it is used there since Prof. Kahn's work has been translated into Russian. In 1933, ten years after Prof. Kahn's test was developed, he was given the 11th annual award of American Association for the De- velopment of Science for "out- standing contributions in the field of medical science" Prof. Kahn also received a gold medal from Phi Lambda Kappa honorary society for his work. Conference Set On Consumer, Design Effect "Design and the American Con- sumer" will be the first topic dis- cussed at the Ann Arbor Confer- ence today at Rackham Amphi- theatre. "The Status of Consumer Re- search" is the subject of the af- ternoon discussion. The subject of the annual con- ference is "Consumer reaction to, and influence on, the designing of mass produced goods. At today's dinner in the League, Dean-Emeritus Joseph Hudnut of Harvard's Graduate School of De- sign will speak on "The Common Man and Grand Ripids." Tomorrow morning's session will highlight "The Potential in De- sign Research" and the fourth and final session will study a case problem: "The Unitized Kitchen." "The purpose of the confer- ence," said Prof. Aarre K. Lahti. is to show students that design products involve cooperation in all fields of production. Prof. Lahti is acting chairman of the art department of the Col- lege of Architecture and Design, which together with the Institute of Contemporary Arts in Boston, is sponsoring the conference.
