NU Students To Donate
To Gamma Globulin Pool
By MARIANNE HANSEN
Staff Writer
Science marches on: It's latest
step forward is the development
of a blood derivative which was
scientifically demonstrated as an
effective preventative for polio
for the first time last year,
globulin has been substantially
proved. In the largest human field
trials known in medicine, doses of
gamma globulin were given in
1951 and 1952 to half of 84,722
children in Provo, Utah; Houston,
Texas and Sioux City, Iowa. The
other half received injections of a

the fight against this world-wide the gamma globulin group were

though none of .the other group
had recovered by then.
University students may aid in
the fight against polio by pledg
ing now to donate a pint of blood
on the bloodmobile's next visit,
which is February 23 and 24. The
University's quota has been ex
tended to 75 pints per month;
half of this supply is to go for
gamma globulin and half to na
tional defense. The bloodmobile
will be at the Lincoln Scottish
Rite Temple from 11 a.m. to 5
p.m. Feb 23 and from 9 a.m. to
3 p.m. Feb. 24.
A pint of blood is needed to
produce a single average dose of
rrinnlpr.
Because of production difficul
ties and equipment priorities, the
supply of gamma globulin is ex-
tremely limited. Only three com
mercial firms are now making the
serum and production of a fully
processed and tested batch takes
about three months by the pres
ent process. The processing firms
are striving to step up their pro
duction; but, according- to Red
Cross doctors, the supply ready in
time for the polio season next
summer will not be very great.
Only one million doses of the
precious substance are expected to
be available for a nation with 43
million children. In order to pro
vide the maximum supply pos

He never wears a hat.
David Foltz, chairman of the
school of music, finally has a hat.
One of Mexico's finest 10-gallon
Stetsons was presented to him at
the State Music Educators' Con
vention in Aubuquerque, New
Mexico.
Foltz directed a choral group
selected from high schools in New
Mexico. The convention was held
on the University of New Mexico's
campus, Jan. 29, 30 and 31.
When Foltz arrived at the New
Mexico campus; he was not rec
ognized as being a choral director.
The University of New Mexico's
faculty, evidently thought of &
choral director as being a beard
ed old man in his seventies with
a hat.
The president of the University
expressed his appreciation to the
University of Nebraska for letting
Foltz come to the convention.
Their faculty thought they could
help the University by giving
Foltz a hat.
After the concert, the chorus
presented Foltz with the 10-gallon
Stetson.
The University of Nebraska fac
ulty of the school of music dis
cussed the hat, and went on rec
ord as appreciating the gesture of
the University of New Mexico.
