'OPERATION SHOT'
Palefaces Invade NU Campus
Cause: ROTC Summer Camps
By KAY NOSKY
Staff Writer
Summer ROTC camps come
and go but the memory of shots,
needles and swollen arms lingers
on. ,
If you've seen a number of
pale-faced male with sore arms
running about the campus, you've
perhaps wondered the cause of
this unusual phenomena.
The answer lies in the require
ment of Army and Air Force
ROTC members to take tetanus,
typhoid and smallpox shots be
fore leaving for summer camp.
Some of the remarks heard
around "Operation Shot" head
ouarto'S might lead us to believe
that the experience is all but
pleasant. One observing student
said, "I sure see a lot of them
going in but I don't see any of
them coming out."
Others remarked on how white
-the victims were when they fin
ally did come out.
The shots run in series. For
typhoid vaccinations, for ex
ample, a series of three shots are
necessary. Students have to start
the series by Mar. 12 in order, to
be through in time for summer
camp. Once they have started a
series, they should follow through
or they will have to start all over
again.
Two shots are required for
tetanus immunization, taken from
four to six weeks apart. Onlp one
shot is necessary for small pox.
Nurses relate the usual re
marks of the needle-crazed ROTC
members waiting in line for their
shots, complaints about "square
needles" and "it hurts." Actually
the needles are of the round vari
ety, only half an inch long.
Effects of theh shots were out
lined by Dr. Samuel Fuenning,
Student Health Center doctor. He
said that there are very few
people who don't react to typhoid
shots. Some arms swell up and
some don't but they will invari
ably Je sore. From a tetanus shot,
the effect is more of a burning
sensation.
All of this just goes to show
that modern military service isn't
what it used to be. Who ever
heard of the knights and cru
saders of older times needing to
take shots? However, there is
silver lining to this cloud. Dr.
Fuenning assured students that
most of the effects of shots arje
gone in a iew aays.

The addition of a full-time
psychiatrist to the medical staff
the University was announced
Friday by Dr. S.. I. Fuenning, di
rector. The Psychiatrist, Dr. I. William
Brill, 39, of New York City, will
assume his new position March 1.
Employment of Dr. Bill is the
initial step in improving the men
tal health program at the Univer
sity, Dr. Fuenning said. The new
service is made possible by a
$100,000 grant given through the
University of Nebraska Founda
tion by the Woods family in mem
ory of their parents, the late Mr.
and Mrs. Frank H. Woods of Lin
coln.
Perry W. Branch, director-secretary
of the University Founda
tion, said the money will supple
ment University funds for a pe
riod of at least 10 years in obtain
ing "adequate personnel for the
development of a mental health
program."
Dr. Fuenning explained that Dr
Brill's duties would be in three
fields. These three, he said, would
be the fields of clinical, educa
tional, and research psychiatry.
Dr. Brill's Clinical function
would have to do with those cases
that fall to his specialty at the
Student Health Center. Dr. Fuen
ning emphasized the fact that
their would be no ''.large scale
treatment." The treatment ren
dered, he said, would be in the
fields of consultation and diag
nosis.
"The Psychiatric treatment is
expensive and cannot be carried
out on a large scale," he ex
plained. "A student will be coun
seled only as long as he can carry
on satisfactorily his scholastic
and social function as a member
of the University society." It was
explained that after this point he
would be turned over to his pn
vate psychiatrist. Dr. Fuenning
said also that all clinical treat
ment would be under the "seal of
trict privacy."
The educational function of the
Psychiatrist will be to give lec
tures in mental health before
University classes, was explained.
The research function of the clinic
will be carried out in cooperation
with the Psychiatric Graduate
Training Program which will
strive to find better ways to com
bat mental illness.
Dr. Brill received his A. B. and
M. D. from the University of In
diana and his Master's in psy
chiatry from the University of
Michigan. He was resident psy
chiatrist and junior instructor at
the Neuropsychiatric Institute at
Ann Arbor, Mich., from 1946 to
1948, staff psychiatrist at Hallo
van Veterans Hospital in New Ro
chelle, N. Y., for a year, and in
1949 staff psychiatrist at Kings
County Hospital in New York. At
present he is psychiatrist for out
patients a New York Hospital.
Dr.' Brill is certified by the
American Board of Psychiatry
and Neurology. He is married and
has three children.
