Average On Kentucky Campus Is Much Ivower Than
Nation As A Whole
In a final tabulation of Wasser-man- n
test results late yesterday. Dr.
J. S. Chambers, head of the dispensary, reported that not one case
of syphilis was found among the
during the
2.000 students tested

On Authority

campaign.
This average compares favorably
with a report released by the United
States Public Health Service at the
first of this month. Blood tests of
78.388 undergraduates in more than
500 American colleges indicate that
2 out of every 1.000 students examined are infected with syphilis,
according to the report.
The rate of infection for the general population in the age group
years, based on estimates of
9
the Public Health Service issued in
November, 1938, is about 1.8 per
1.000. The apparently higher college rate results from the inclusion
of an unknown number of students
in higher age groups up to 24 in
the present survey.
Other findings of the recent survey show an indicated difference
of about 15 per cent less syphilis
among college women than among
men, a difference, it is noted, paralleling nationwide prevalence rates
by sexes. There is also a slightly
lower rate among college women
than among women of the same age
group at large. Little difference is
shown, however, between one region
in the United States and another
for either sex. or between the rates
for schools with large as compared
to small student bodies.
Because failure to detect the often hidden clinical manifestations
of syphilis is so frequent and be- cause many infected persons do not
know that they have syphilis and
therefore do not request examina- tions, testing by selective method
results in many actual cases of the
disease among college students remaining 'uiidetemeci. The repH t
stresses the need for routine blood
testing.
Although the rate of infection
on this campus, as indicated by the
2.000 tests, is lower than the na- tional average, it is believed that
about three students are being
treated for the disease off the
campus. The health authorities al- -i
so estimate that probably another
case would be found if tests were
given to the remaining 1600 stu-- I
dents. However, the campus rate

Provided a time convenient to all

be added to the Intramural roundup. C. W. Hackersmith, intramural
chief, said yesterday.
Arrangements havl been completed with the manager of the Phoenix
hotel alleys for the use of their alleys for league play. As there are
two Lexington leagues already using
the alleys on Monday and Tuesday
nights, the only possible openings
would be Wednesday, Thursday or
Friday nights. The most satisfactory time yet suggested has been
Wednesday nights at 8:30 after
meetings of the various organizations.
Plans as drafted so far call for
the league to run for nine weeks
from February 1 to March 31. Each
organization would be eligible to enter a team of five men and three
alternates and the entry lists will
close January 19.
Basketball entries are due February 6 with cpening games scheduled for February 14 in the Gym

is eligible to enter 10 men in each
