The Student Government Coun-
cil's decision to abandon Campus
Chest drives has left three benefi-
ciary organizations in a precarious
financial position.
The Free University of Berlin,
the World University Service, and
the University's Fresh Air Camp
'U' Orchestra'
To .Audition
Auditions for the University
Symphony Orchestra will be held
this semester, Prof. Josef Blatt of
the music school announced yes-
terday.
Prof. Blatt, director of the or-
chestra, said positions are open in
every section of the orchestra,
particularly in the violas and cel-
los. Students interested in trying
out may reach Prof. Blatt at 214
Hill Auditorium.
Criteria for appointments are
proficiency in the instrument, or-
chestral techniques, and general
musicianship.
The orchestra's program for the
coining semester includes Guiseppe
Verdi's opera, "The Masked Ball,"
Feb. 26 to March 1; Gustav Mah-
ler's Symphony No. 2, April 4; and
a concerto concert May 9.
are now faced with the problem of
finding a new source of income.
The abolition of Campus Chest
is a "matter of great anxiety" to
the. University Fresh Air Ca np,
according to Prof. William C.
Morse of the psychology depart-
ment. The camp depended upon
4,000 from the combined charity
drive.
Prior to the establishment of
Campus Chest the camp was sup-
ported by a camp drive sponsored
by the League. The nucleus of the
first Campus Chest effort was
formed from the administrators of
the camp drive.
Run by Affiliates
Recently the camp drive has
been run by Junior Panhellenic
and Junior Inter-Fraternity Coun-
cil. These two groups have also
sponsored a clean-up project at
the camp each year.
After an SGC evaluation the
Council dropped the Free Univer-
sity of Berlin exchange program
next year and in its place initiated
two new exchange programs. As a
result it is expected that the Cam-'
pus Chest funds allocated to the
Free University of Berlin program
will be given to the University
general exchange program for use,
in the new plans, according to
Jean Scruggs, '58, Council member.
The decision to discontinue the
FUB program did not result from
the SGC abolition of Campus
Chest and it is possible that the
FUB program will be reinstated in
the future, Miss Scruggs said.
Combined Drive
The general exchange program
is tentatively planning a combined
funds drive with the World Uni-
versity Service program next fall.
World University Service has
depended upon the Campus Chest
drive for its finances; however, the
group has been dissatisfied with
the results of the drive in the past
two years. Consequently the or-
ganization hasbeen looking for-
ward into several other money-
making projects.
In December WUS had planned
to print cookbooks containing reci-
pes provided by internatfbnal stu-
dents and to sell these books at
the Worlds Fair, according to
Marilyn Benson, '59, chairman f
the group. The project was not
approved for this year but the
group is tentatively planning at
similar project for the coming year.
SGC discontinued Campus Chest
in December and voted to calendar
a maximum of four drives a year..

The University has established
a Poison Information and Therapy
Control as part of the University
Hospital Emergency Clinic.
The center was set up last
month in response to the increase
on the number of accidental home
poisonings. Prof. George H. Low-
rey of the Medical School has
been appointed director of the
center.
Physicians in the state who 1a
faced with cases of such poison-
ing can call the center 24 hours
a day for advice on combatting
the poison. A staff doctor is al-
ways on duty.
A wide variety of substances
used around the house may con-
tain poisons, Prof. Lowrey said.
He mentioned ammonia, turpen-
tine, kerosene, rat poison, lighter
fluid, and even bubble bath soap
as possible toxic substances.

"Most of our cases are of chil-
dren eating too many aspirin,"
Prof. Lowrey said. "For instance,
a couple of weeks ago, two chil-
dren were brought into the hos-
pital who had eaten about 50 as-
pirin tablets between them. For-
tunately, we washed them out in
time."
Shoe polish is another common
poison. Household detergents are
a source of trouble for doctors.
These substances may be used in
a number of soaps (such as bubble
bath) which might appear harm-
less. ..' ,
"You name it and we've heard
of it," Prof. Lowrey said.
By far the majority of poison-
ings are of children. More than
half of those so far reported to the
center have involved children be-
tween the ages of one and four,
who will literally "eat anything."
' Parents of these children and
other people caring for poisoning'
victims can ,get advice from their
local physician or from the center.
The staff doctor on duty will pro-
vide first aid advice and instruc-
tions.
The center received about 30 to
40 phone calls seeking information
in its first month, Prof. Lowrey
said. However, an increase in re-
quests has been noted recently,
and Prof. Lowrey anticipates av-
eraging between 50 and 75 calls,
monthly in the nearfuture.nfr
The center has access to infor-
mation on the contents of several{
thousand generally used house-
hold products and chemicals. Con-
sultation with specialists in the
medical center is also possible.
Meetings with leading chemical
manufacturers have also been ar-
ranged. The center is able t
information from the Na
Clearinghouse for Poison Cc
Centers in Washington.
It will also be training p
clans and residents in trea
and diagnosis of poisoning.

be on the local scene," Prof.
rey said.
"We hope that our new :
ties will be of service to phys
when they are faced with a
