friday, J:nuery 21, 1S77 dslly ncbrscen pcs reported, available - The state health de: Peoria t. is askir.s the receive University Health Center (UIIC) to watch out for more cas of the seven day merges after i ere wis reported at Will, list vctk, acconUcg to a UIIC official. ' ' Dr. Kenneth Hubble, UIIC director, said the state cency nct&ed him that a 20-year o!J female student had the niceties. She had been examined .by a private physician. , A'Kstsdes imrnurdiation is required prior to attending most urban schools, Hubble said, but that "it should be interesting to see what wEl happen in the next 10 days. The student must have had contact ..with other people, Dr. E. D. Lyman, Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department director, said the last mown incident of seven day measles in Nebraska was in 1975, when 30 to 40 cases were reported to the county health dept. However, "there 'is always a cause, for concern with any disease that can be as easily prevented as measles." Complications that may result from a bout with the measles are more dangerous than the disease itself, Lyman said. Complications include ; possible hearing loss, visual problems and encephalitis, an inflamation of the brain, he said. should be encouraged to s vaccine, which has been in use since 1953, Lyman said. The vaccine is mere, important to protect complications man assist If-'! . "Any strong believer in mental' health, any opponent of mental retard ation, should get the vaccine, he said. T don't see how a person could live down not receiving the vaccine if they happened to produce a retarded child because of exposure to the measles. ' The three-day and the seven-day measles can do much the same kind of damage, Lyman said. Dr. Hubble sni he also was concern ed about the three-day measles, particularly their occurence in women. Exposure to the three-day measles during the first three months of preg nancy results in a 25 per cent chance of producing an abnormal baby, he said. A person can contract the three-day measles two or three times and still not have enough natural immunity to prevent reinfection, he said. "The health center ran advertise ments in the Daily Nebraskan last semester encouraging people to be tested for adequate immunity, to the three-day measles, but there were only nine responses, he said.

The fact that teachers have joined unions in some parts of the country shows respects," she said. However, "next time the vote may be for collective bargaining, she said.

"It shows a lack cf support that should ' be there," he said. .... Fasdty willing to fcsra. Norma Sue Griffin, associate professor and vice chairman for academic affairs in the physical education and recreation dept. said she is uncomfortable with the term militancy. t , "I feel professors are open and ques tioning rights as professors and working conditions," Griffin said. . "Very few professors are involved in or planning to be involved in strikes. Faculty members are more willing to participate and more . imvolved in governing pro cesses," she said. According to Griffin, salaries, especially when money is scarce, are always a concern . to faculty members, - "Rational people should be able to sit down and talk things over," she said. Faculty members want to take an active role in establishing the mission of the university, she added. Griffin said she thinks a pattern has emerged from last year's UNL's faculty decision not to unionize. Since the vote was close she said it showed there is time to work out differences. "If in view of the faculty, the posi tions cf the faculty are being ignored, they may vote for collective bargaining." The faculty, according to Griffin, wants to present its views in an open way, but they also want listeners. No militancy increase Dale Hayes, professor of education ad ministration, said he doubts faculty mem bers will be more militant in the future than in the past. Salaries may not be the issue, but aca demic freedom will be, he said. "Faculty members are more realistic about economical matters and tend to avoid exorbitant demands," he said. Ritchie said he believes students today don't have a unifying force in comparison to stsdents of the 1960s. Students nowv are more job conscious, he said. Griffin said she believes students are more willing to speak out but unwilling to take as many chances on what will be avail able in the way of jobs. "Students are more conservative in terms of their demands and their expecta tions as to their role in the university," Hayes said. ' , However, he jaM, he belir students today are not more conservative than they were in the past. , - . nnr?n n wuLAbvJ Li D mm mm pursisiit And todsy, h3 is a better person bscsusa of it If thst 0 turkey could da it csnyoj! - Si-n up in Room 115 in tha Union by Tuesday, Jen. 25th for tnro hours of ttfcrk snd sttsd a cna hcur'tnhing session prior to ths tnt.
