November I, 1935 To the President of the University Dear Sir:

I have the honor to submit, herewith, the Nineteenth Annual Re- port of the activities of the Health Service for the academic year, 193'"1-

1935-

CALLS

During the year students made 50,691 visits to the Health Ser- vice Station and Civil Service employees I2U7. In addition, there wore 2785 miscellaneous calls on University or other business making a grand total of 5U, 723» This includes H/321 calls as a result of the required physical examination upon entrance anc* l^gS -t"°r ro-examination«

The number of visits per student registered was U.58, The men of the Class of 1938 called 23,lU2 times, an average of 7.69 visits per man; the women 7300 or 5»56 visits per woman. In each instanco ono visit was for the required physical examination*

The visits to the Health Service Station tend to increase with each additional student registered. This is inevitable unless morbidity rates decrease or protection to the health of the University population is reduced. The only way to control contagion or detect disease in its in- cipiency is to make an early diagnosis. Early discovery of din ee.se pro- tects the community, insures the ill of getting prompt treatment, reducrs amplications, and returns the student to the classroom with a minimum loss of time.

- 2 «.

The common ailments of students are respiratory infections, acne, mycosis, scabies, minor injuries, gas tro- intestinal upsets, eye strain, and quarantinable diseases. These conditions are usually readily recognizable and can be quickly disposed of by advice to stu- dents, the use of household remedies, or by reference for study and treatment to a local doctor, the family physician, or a specialist.

By giving its students unrestricted consultation at the Health Service Station, the University avoids their caring for themselves at their rooms, reduces the likelihood of the sore throats of scarlet fever being prescribed for by drug clerics, and prevents their falling victims to quackery or spreading communicable disease by attempting to treat each other. Such consultation is not competition with local practitioners but the means for the control of contagion and getting sick students to their family physician or to the local doctor of their own selection.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION FOR STUDENTS

A total of U321 students was given complete physical examina- tions during the year, an increase over last year of 593. or 15 -91 Per cent. Of this number, 3^08 were men and 1313 were women, representing an increase of 19.6 per cent for men and 8.2U per cent for women. Ex- aminations were given to 2Ul prospective students who did not matriculate. This necessitated an approximate cost of $85*80. There seems to be no way to avoid the expense of examining high school students who expect to

become freshmen, but for some unforeseen reason do not do so. It is cheaper to give these examinations when the students present themselves and request them during the sumner than it would be to defer them until during registration and then employ enough outside physicians to take care of the peak load.

KS GALLS

Of the new students examined, 1862 men and 620 women were re- called for conference and advice. This includes 2129 who were re-examined. Whenever students were found to have defects, they were advised to consn.lt their family physicians, specialists, or dentists. In many instances, stu- dents had had their defects of vision corrected and had had dentists treat their teeth between the timo they were examined and their matriculation.

In addition to the regular physical examination, 2880 students, 2112 men and 73^ women, filled out personal hygiene questionnaires which were rather complete inventories of their health, habits, and mental at- titudes. These were studied and a conference was had with each student concerning any deviations from the normal. This procedure has been most helpful in ascertaining the mental and Physical states of students, the conditions under which they live, and their reactions toward them. It has also made it possible in many instances to remove fears, conflicts, and mental tensions wiiich definitely handicapped them in their work and in their adjustment to their environments.

During the last half of the year the members of the senior

- u _

class were given an opportunity to be re-examined and to confer with mem- bers of the staff concerning their general health before assuming posi- tions. Many members of the Class of 1935 took advantage of it. On re- quest, they were immunized against typhoid fever and smallpox, and were given certain clinical tests.

"FOLLOW-UP"

The staff of the Health Service makes a sustained effort to fol- low up students who are found to have physical defects at the tine of their physical examinations until their handicaps are removed, or they have received the benefit of the opinion of specialists of recognized authority. By this procedure, students who attend the University not only receive an excellent opportunity to obtain an education but the best that modorn medicine can provide to make them effective units of society.

Possible Nephritis and Diabetes

A total of I85 freshmen with albuminuria (suggesting possible nephritis) was observed repeatedly and urinalyses were made to determine whether or not their conditions were functional or pathological. Of these, 89.19 per cent had conditions which seemed to be of passing significance only, while 10.81 per cent had to be excused from Military and had to have their physical education modified. They were referred to their family physicians or urologists for further study and treatment.

Of the U32I urinalyses of students and lUo of Civil Service em- ployees at the time of their physical examinations, ^>k showed a oositive

- 5 - test for sugar of wiiicii 51 ^-^ a transient glycosuria and three were diabetic.

Cardiac Abnormalities

The maximum safeguard has been placed around 78 students who were found to have organic disease or marked functional disturbances of the heart. They have been kept under observation, have been re-oeat- edly examined, and have been given advice how to protect their hearts against unnecessary strain. Of these, Hi, or ^2<,^S per cent were ex- cused from Military and regular physical education and were assigned to adaptive exercises or special activities. The condition of four was sucn that required activity was temporarily or permanently contra- indi- cated because of its risk.

Preliminary to participation in athletics, a total of 2587 students was examined of which 196H wore men and 623 were women. Of the men, six were rejected permanently on account of physical defects which made participation in major athletics extra-hazardous. It was necessary to defer the participation of 66 men in major sports sending further study and tests, most of which were to deter nine the normalcy of their cardiovascular systems. These, however, were later certified as able to enter athletics.

The work of the Health Service in observing and examining the hearts of students would be greatly facilitated if it had access to an electrocardiograph in studying the cardiovascular system of all ath- letes and students suspected of heart disease. The usual methods of inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation, blood oressure taking

- 6 - and pulse counting are inadequate to provide a complete examination of the heart.

Electrocardiograms should be made of the hearts of those stu- dents who have arhythmias or who give a history of acute rheumatic fever or infections which may attack the heart. If such a study could "be made, a number of those students excused from Military and disqualified for regular physical education or athletics \vould be able to participate in these subjects. It would add much to their efficiency and t>eace of mind to have removed, where possible, the persistent thought of having cardiac disease.

Tuberculosis

A group of 20 students, ten of whom had been in intimate con- tact with tuberculosis in their homes and ten of whom had had it and had succeeded in having it arrested were kept under observation during the year. Under a proper diet, hygienic regi.ne, and modified activity all of them went through the year without showing signs of active tuber- culosis. Those contacts who have increased in weight and vigor have been released from observation after being informed as to the precautions they should exercise at all times. The students who have arrested tuber- culosis will be kept under observation throughout their University careers.

During the year four cases of active t\iberculosis were reported of which one was a graduate student and assistant on the faculty, one a. student of the University of the Class of 1937a, one was an instructor, and the other was a member of a family of the faculty. The student with- drew from the University and all of them are undergoing special treat-

- 7 -

ment in sanatoria or at their homes under tae directions of specialists. At the time of the physical examination, it was found that U02 or 13.36 per cent of those examined were below the minimum requirements of the War Department for weight and development for their ages, A con- siderable portion of these were markedly sub-standard and the type which usually shows an increased predisposition to tuberculosis. Many of these have required special observation and consideration.

The chests of students who are definitely below par physically or give a history of contact with the victims of tuberculosis should be examined with an X-ray. It would lead to the saving of useful lives by the diagnosis of tuberculosis in its incipiency when its arrest is most likely. Control of tuberculosis in college students not only requires repeated physical examinations of the lungs but tuberculin testing and stereoscopic X~ray studies of positive reactors with follow-up of sus- picious cases.

Mental Hygiene

Careful consideration has been given throughout the year to the mental health of students and sustained effort lias been made to discover those who were suffering mental disturbances. Every student in the Class of 1933 has had one or more conferences with the Health Service staff. Students have been seen repeatedly who gave a history of being subject to blues or worry, had had a "nervous breakdown", showed a tendency to be "shut-in", or were having difficulty in becoming adjusted to college life. A total of 173 stated that they had a tendency to worry and 31^ that they

- 8 - occasionally had the "blues.

A careful study of their cases revealed that their conditions rarely influenced tueir appetites, prevented sleep, or seemed to handi- cap them in their academic work. With few exceptions, members of this group responded promptly to advice, financial help, a rearrangement of tlieir schedules of living, participation in extra-curricular activities, and friendly interest.

Altuough defective germ plasm, infections, and ooisons may cause mental disease and predispose to functional disturbances of the mind„ the greater part of mental disability comes out of unwholesome environ- ment, defective training, and unhappy experience. In the prevention of mental disorders among students, eugenics, psychiatry, and medicine have contributions to make, but the great preventives are the social, edu- cational, recreational, and religious organizations which help students to find themselves, give them financial assistance, and aid them in ob- taining an adequate philosophy of life.

The promotion of mental health and the prevention of the devel- opment of complexes, phobias, and conflicts are a cooperative enterprise which requires sympathetic assistance, anticipation of conditions which cause mental stress, and alertness in their removal. Loan funds, the F.E.R.A. , the sustained efforts of the University Employment Agency, the friendly interest of faculty members and administration staff are potent factors in the reduction of mental tension, the elimination of emotional strain, and the avoidance of mental disturbances in students.

- 9 - EXAMINATION OF STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL At the beginning of the school year, 79 high school students were examined - 3'9 boys and *JO girls - and 57 were re-examined, All were classified as to their physical ability to take the prescribed course in gymnastics. Two had defects which required special physical training and one had to be excused from physical activity because of mitral insufficiency and hypertrophy of the heart complicating rheu- matic fever.

In this group, 46 or 5^-23 per cent had had their tonsils removed. Of the total, 24, or 30»3S per cent had suffered severe injuries. Of those examined, 26, or 32-91 Per cent, were unvaccinated, 66 were well-developed, 12 were below the average, and one was poor. Urinalyses showed that four had albuminuria which was transitory.

CIVIL SERVICE EMPLOYEES

During the year, Civil Service employees made I2U7 calls to the Health Service Station of which l4o were for physical examina- tions at the beginning of employment or an increase for the latter of U5. 83 Per cent. These were graded as follows; 125 good and 15 fair. Of the new employees, 130 of whom were men and ten of whom were wo- men, 12 were permitted to work subject to a waiver of claims against the University arising from the defects revealed by their medical examinations.

Employees of the University suffered l4l accidents in the line of duty, an increase of 12.80 per cent. A total of 113 required

- 10 - minor surgical attention as a result of their injuries, and 28 were so severely injured that they were referred to outside surgeons, specia- lists, or radiologists for prolonged treatment or roentgrams. Of these, four were hospitalized for a total of 23 days or an average of 5.75 days per patient. No injury resulted in disability which would seriously interfere with the earning of a livelihood.

COMMUNICABLE DISEASE

The incidence of communicable disease during 193^-1935 re~

flected the rising morbidity rate in the registration area of the

United States. A total of 2959 students was exposed to communicable

disease other than influenza and coryza, an increase of 59*25 per cent.

Of this number, 351 were held in quarantine for the period required by

law and 330 were permitted to attend classes under daily observation.

In Table I are given the communicable disease cases reported in the

student body during the year.

An epidemic of German measles during the year probably im- munized most of the susceptibles in the student body. Because this disease is very mild, causes the patient little inconvenience, and is many times not suspected until the eruption appears, it is im- possible to prevent exposures. For this reason, the state regula- tions for quarantine for German measles are quite elastic. They keep the student with the disease out of class for only three days and placo no restrictions on contacts.

Of the total number of U5 quarantines of students for scar- let fever, Uo were due to a student's having the disease and five to a member of the fanily of the keeper of the lodging house having it. In only two instances did secondary cases of scarlet fever develop in a house under quarantine. Both of these students had positive Dick tests.

Certificates were filed with the Health Service by 627 stu- dents immune to infectious diseases. Of this number, five had had smallpox, IS had been vaccinated against smallpox, and 252 had had scarlet fever; two had had typhoid fever, 32 had been inoculated against typhoid fever, and 318 had had Dick tests which were negative.

Of the 832 students exposed to scarlet fever during the year, 330 had negative tests and 3U3 positive. The latter were quaran- tined for a week and the former were permitted to attend class but were kept under daily observation. As the Dick test usually leads to

- 12 ~ the student's release from quarantine within 24 hours, this repre- sents a saving of 1980 school days. In addition, 92 of those exposed had filed certificates of having had scarlet fever which saved them from a loss of a total of 644 school days.

Members of the faculty and Civil Service employees reported the following cases of communicable disease in their families during the year.

The hospitals cared for 39^ students with communicable disease for a total of 1919 days or for an average of approximately 4.g4 days each. Of this total 3^2 were cases of German neasles occurring mainly during April and May at the time of an epidemic of the disease.

The incidence of venereal disease in the student body re- mains quite low. Of the students seen during the year, both as a re- sult of voluntary celling and of a "follow-up" on the basis of recorts, 31 were found to have gonorrhea end one was found to have syohilis. This is a rate of 2.59 VQr thousand for the former and of .O83 for the latter.

. 13 *>

In the diagnosis and control of communicable disease 2UH8 lab- oratory tests were made. Of these, the following were positive; Vin- cent's Angina, twenty-five; Widal tests, eight; gonorrhea, six; typhoid fever, three; diphtheria, two; syphilis, one; dysentery, one; and tuber- culosis, one. Seven of those who had positive Widal tests also had nega- tive examinations of feces and the eighth who failed to register was reported to the State Department of Health.

SUPERVISION OF F00DHA!g)LERS

Prospective employees who would handle food products, students employed as foodhandlers by the University, and those enrolled in courses in dairy manufacturing, lunch room management, and meat coixrses were ex- amined to determine whether or not they had communicable disease or wore disease carriers. Foodhandlers who had not been successfully vaccinated against smallpox within the last five years were re-vaccinated.

A careful history as to communicable disease, particularly typhoid fever and dysentery, was obtained in the case of each prospective foodhandler. If the employee or student gave a history of having disease wiiich might be transmitted through the handling of food or by eating and drinking utensils, appropriate bacteriological examinations were made. Widal tests were taken as a routine, and all foodhandlers were immunized against typhoid fever in accordance with University regulations.

During the year numerous cases of gastro- intestinal upsets in student patrons of four lunch rooms were reported. At the request of and in cooperation with the local and state departments of health, both the

- 14 - student and non-student foodhandlers of these places were examined to determine whether or not they were carriers of dysentery or typhoid fever. To this end, 35 students and 22 non-students were examined.

In cooperation with Director Bracken of the Student Employment Bureau, a large number of students was given foodhandlers' examinations prior to their being certified to jobs as waiters, cooks, or dishwashers. This procedure strengthens very materially the safeguards against pos- sible disease carriers becoming sources of epidemics.

The following table shows the number and distribution of the

foodhandlers examined who were in the employ of and taking courses in

the University. In this group of employees and students, there was an

increase of 6.25 per cent over last year, a part of which was due to

the opening of the University High School Cafeteria.

The presidents and commissaries of all organized houses and

the proprietors of all boarding clubs, lunch rooms, and refectories

catering to student trade have been urged to give their patrons the

sane scientific protection against disease carriers as that provided by

the University for patrons of its food distributing agencies. Many

houses and some eating places have responded to this advice and to this

extent have increasedthe safeguards of the health of the University

- 15 - population and of the citizens of the Twin Cities. Consequently, 1U7S Widal tests and 239 bacteriological examinations of the excreta were made on student waiters, dishwashers, and cooks.

The above cooperation was entirely voluntary and offered a considerable protection because not only were the carrier states de- termined, but the kitchen and dining room help were immunized against both typhoid fever and smallpox. This is an advantage to the student who has to support himself, to the community, and to the group which he serves. These tests should be applied to foodhandlers of all lunch rooms catering to student patronage. Unfortunately there are no or- dinances enforced in the two towns requiring a health standard for persons handling food.

HOSPITALIZATION

The McZinley Hospital cared for 2,350 students for a total of 8273 days, an average of 3*52 days per patient, which is in marked contrast to fourteen years ago when the average hospitalization was 7.25 days. The rising morbidity in the country at large is clearly reflected in an increase of 60.96 per cent in patients admitted and U9.76 per cent in hospital days. This fact is further emphasized by all the hospitals together serving 53*52 per cent more students this year than last.

Of the 10,365 students registered at Urbana during the first and second semester, 22.67 per cent or one out of every U.Ul enrolled, was hospitalized at the University Hospital. In 1920-21,

- 16 - only about one student in Uo was admitted to the hospital. Since all students who enter the hospital are attended by local physicians, this increased hospitalization and decreased average stay of the student have an important relationship to the successful practice of medicine in Champa ign-Urb ana, student health, loss of time from classes, and the need of hospital facilities.

While the average stay of a student in the hospital has been short and we have been able to get them into the hospital with consid- erable promptness, we nave been handicapped by the fact that many stu- dents who became ill were not members of the Hospital Association, had only small funds for medical care, and were therefore very reluctant to seek admission. Such a situation promotes the spread of communicable disease and the occurrence of epidemics because such sick students will not seek the advice of a physician until they become quite ill or their condition becomes so alarming that the doctor is called by their room- mates or landladies. In the meantime, many contacts have been made and infection has been spread.

The Burnham and Mercy Hospitals ad ait ted 203 students for a total of 103^ days, an average of 5*09 days per patient. It should be noted that students remain or. the average about a day and a half longer in other local hospitals than in the McKlnley Hospital. This is due to ■ the fact that McKinley Hospital does not admit patients known to require surgery, more particularly major surgery. The McKinley Hospital cared

for 92.05 per cent of all students hospitalized and the other hospitals only 7*95 per cent, but the latter had the benefit of 11.11 per cent of the student patronage in hospital days.

Students, faculty members, and employees joining the voluntary Mutual Hospital Association during the first semester numbered 4026 and the second semester, 3^57 which were respectively '41. 56 per cent and 41.79 Per cent of the student enrollment for each semester, 193^-1935° The usual rise in illnesses associated with winter and early spring increased admissions to the hospitals during the second semester over those of the first by 20.66 per cent, but memberships in the Hospital Association for the second semester decreased oy 4.19 per cent which approximated the 4.74 decrease in enrollment. Hospital memberships, particularly those of the second semester, must be increased if control of communicable disease among students is to be effective and if they are to receive the benefits of modern medicine when sick.

CHOICE OF ATTEITOI1TG- PHYSICIANS During tue year 2,553 students were admitted to the local hos- pitals. Of this number 499 v/ent from the Health Service Station to be created by local physicians of their own choice, and 205'4 were sent to the hospitals by the local doctors themselves. The 499 students who went to the hospitals from the Health, Service chose 51 different doc- tors to care for them. Except in two or three instances where the reason is obvious, the students who went to the hosoitals from the Health Service

- 18 - Station and those who were sent to the* "oy local physicians proportion- ately show little variation in their selection of a medical attendant. This shows conclusively students are exercising their inalienable right to select their own doctors.

CHAUFF3URS ' EXAMINATIONS AND CAP, PEEK ITS A total of 52 faculty members and employees who were to drive University automobiles was examined with special reference to their acuity of vision, color-blindness, hearing, reflex action, and their general health. Because of marked defects of vision, it was necessary to recommend that four prospective drivers have their eyes examined and that four be re-examined and required to wear glasses. The vision of all applicants was above the minimum recommended by the Committee on Physical Standards for Drivers of Motor Vehicles of the Section on Ophthalmology of the American Medical Association.

In all, 12 students requesting permits from the Committee on Student Affairs for the use of a -notor vehicle on the basis of physical disability were examined. Of these, five were found to have physical de- fects sufficiently handicapping to make the use of a car to attend classes desirable. Six were able to attend classes without a car and one was physically unable to drive. The reasons for recommendation of the grant- ing of permits, most of which v/ere terseorary and for the protection of the student, were as follows: knee injury, one; infantile paralysis, two; recuperation from temporary illness, one; recuperation from operation, one.

COOPERATION WITH THE DEPARTMENTS OF MILITARY AM) PHYSICAL EDUCATION

During the year, 271 uen were assigned to Individual Gymnastics for special physical training. Because of marked physical abnormalities or organic diseases, 13 students were classified as unable to take either Physical Education or Military. Their conditions were such as to make it too great a risk or discomfort to require any form of activity of them. Of these, two had diabetes, three were badly paralyzed, two had marked organic heart disease, one had amputated extremities, one had marked albuminuria, one had arrested tuberculosis, one had a draining fistula of the left thorax, one had recurrent pneumo- thorax, and one had ankylosis of the hip.

A total of 70 students was given tenporary excuses from Mili- tary, Physical Education, or both: 20 from Military and Physical Educa- tion, 26 from Military only, and 2U from Physical Education. They had undergone recent operations, were convalescent, or had lost so much time on account of illness that they were unable to complete satisfactor- ily the work for the semester.

In the course of the year, JO^ prescriptions were issued to students whose physical conditions made it desirable for them to change irom one course in Physical Education to another or to modify their pro- grams of exercise. 3y this procedure students who had sinusitis, infec- tions of the middle ear, or perforation of the drum were transferred from swimming, which would aggravate their conditions, to a form of exercise without an unusual hazard. By such transfers those who had ringworm of

«. 20 - the feet, boils, or who had -undergone operations were able to take exercise with a minimum of risk of injury and with maximum protection to their associates against infection.

A total of 112 students was permanently excused from Military because of their failure to meet the minimum requirements of the Medical Department of the Army; 28 students below the minimum physical require- ttents for commission but who desired to take Military were assigned to it. Their physical conditions were such that they could undergo training without undue risk.

At the request of the Military Department, the Health Service administered I+65 doses of vaccine to 155 stiidents to immunize them against typhoid fever. Those students who were unvaccinated against small- pox and those whose scars were more than five years old were vaccinated preparatory to their going to camps for members of the Reserve Officers Training Corps. Our laboratory made 3^0 urinalyses upon students who were being given special physical examinations oy members of the Medical Corps of the Army in connection with their registration for advanced Mill tary work.

SANITATION The Health Service has done its best to insure students sanitary living conditions by making inspections on the campus, in student lodging houses, boarding clubs, lunch rooms, and refectories. Complaints have been investigated to determine the cleanliness and healthfulness

- 21 -

of the environment in whicu students live. Daily reports have been re- ceived concerning the condition of the swimming pools and water supply. Insanitary conditions and fire hazards have "been reported to the Droper local authorities, and lack of tidiness and cleanliness has been called to the attention of landladies and "DroprietorSr

Lodging House Inspection During the past year inspections of student lodging houses were made as part of an F.E.R.A. project. Its results may be summarized as follows:

1. Tne revision of the map of the student district (the map was made to include tiie territory bounded on the north by Church Street, on the east by Race Street, on the south by Florida Avenue and Gregory Drive, and on the west by the Illinois Central Railroad) was completed and brought up to date. This involved a survey of the student district to determine the general improvements, changes in the buildings, location of wells, the number of outside toilets, sanitary conditions, and fire hazards.

2. An inspection was made of each lodging house and data were col- lected and recorded concerning eacn room, the house, and the premises. All serious defects which were noticed were called to tne attention of the proper local authorities. Repeated visits were made to check fire hazards and to note the progress of im- provements whicu were suggested by state and local authorities.

3« The data obtained on the conditions and capacities of the lodging houses revealed the following facts.

The general sanitation of the living quarters of students is good both in the organized and unorganized houses. Tidiness and cleanli- ness are qualities subject to sudden changes hat with few exceptions, lodging house keepers are endeavoring to maintain rooms which are a credit to themselves and will attract desirable roomers.

Lunch Rooms and Soft Drink Parlors The University is very much handicapped in dealing with the conditions under wnich the students live "because of the fact that it has no police power in the local municipalities. This situation, however, can he and has been improved from time to time by calling the attention of the local boards of health to insanitary conditions. Progress also has been made by education as to the danger of unpasteurized milk, the patronage of insanitary lunch rooms, and the failure to supervise food- handlers.

Efforts have been made throughout the year to encourage eating places and conf ectionarios about the campus to adopt satisfactory Standards of Sanitation. This would be of great assistance in the prevention r.nd control of communicable diseases, particularly respiratory infections among students and citizens of the community. The adoption of the follow- ing minimum requirements has been urged.

1. SANITATION

The lunch room, kitchen, equipment, and cooking, serving, and eating utensils shall be clean.

2. STERILIZATION

The lunch room shall have ample facilities to provide boiling water to insure tne sterilization of eating and drinking utensils after eacn separate use.

3. MILK

The milk sold shall be from healthy, tuberculin- tested cors, pro- duced under sanitary conditions, pasteurized, and served in bottles.

U. FOOD

The food used shall be fresh, sound, unadulterated, and orotected against contamination from dirt, insects, rats, and mice.

- 2U-

5. PERSONNEL

All foodhandlers shall be neatly attired and careful of their personal cleanliness, shall he medically examined to preclude the pos- sibility of their being carriers of disease, shall be immunized against smallpox and typhoid fever, and shall not be permitted to handle food when suffering from either respiratory or intestinal disease.

6. INSPECT I ON

Inspection shall be at freqiient intervals to insure that sani- tation, the health of personnel, the sterilization of eating and drink- ing utensils, and the wholesomeness of the milk and food arc maintained.

Swimming Pools

The swimming pools of the University have been maintained in a good sanitary condition throughout the year. "7ith the fine cooperation of the staff of the State Water Survey, the Sanitary Engineer of the University, and the Departments of Physical Education, the users of the pools have been required to observe the standard sanitary regulations for swimmers. Daily bacteriological tests have been made, and thn re- .liual chlorine of the water has been determined twice a day. The loads o£ the pools have been controlled, and systematic efforts have been made to care for the pools in accordance with the standards of the Ameri- can Public Health Association and Conference of State Sanitary Engineers.

Colon bacilli were found during the year In three of the samples of water taken daily from the pools for examination. A total of 18 high counts of bacteria was noted. These occurrences, upon investigation, were found usually to be due to some temporary mechanical difficulty, life-saving practice in street clothes, over-loads, or other factors whicii were readily controlled by appropriate action.

- 25 -

Sanitary Improvements on the Campus Under your authorization and t.Ae hi ,..ly efficient direction of Messrs. friaries 5. Havens, John Doak, and Sanitary Engineer, H. L. White, the University has made great progress on the campus towards setting an example of sanitation commensurate with the ideals of its teaching. Dangerous cross-connections have been removed. Plumbing likely to back siphonage has been changed or controlled by appropriate valves. The mattress sterilizer has been placed in the McKinley Hos- pital, therby doing away with the inconvenience, danger, and expense of hauling contaminated articles to the Power Plant for sterilization. New wells have been sunk, which, in construction, are hygienically correct. The water supply has been improved and increased. Many drink- ing fountains have been changed to a type generally recognized as sani- tary and safe.

Tnese improvements are a great protection to the University population and to tae many callers who visit the caamus. They are even more valuable as continuous demonstration before the leaders of tocrorrow of what sanitary science has to contribute to public welfare. They are a challenge to students to seek such modern means for the prevention of disease and tue promotion of health in their o:vn communities.

COOPERATION WITH ATTENDING PHYSIC IANS The cooperation of local doctors and other physicians in the state in caring for the students has been most generous and helpful. A total of 386 letters has been received at the Health Service Station con-

~ 26 - cerning the physical conditions of students who are or have been for-rer patients of the doctors. In addition, family physicians have certified that 23 students were immune to smallpox, 252 have had scarlet fever, and 66U have been given the Dick test. This assistance is of great value in advising students because it provides additional information as to their medical histories.

LABORATORY SERVICE The following table shows the necessary laboratory service given students and employees during the year, a part of which was essen- tial in oiaking effective the regulation of the University concerning food* handlers.

FIRST AID

A total of 103 first aid cabinets is being maintained in the various buildings on the campus. They are much used and are visited weekly or twice weekly, depending upon their location, to reioloce sup- plies as needed.

During the year a second survey (the first was fifteen years ago)

- 27 - was made of the methods in use for the first aid treatment of hums. To this end the opinions of the leading industrial physicians, elastic sur- geons, professors of surgery, and dermatologists of the state and nation were obtained as to the best procedures for laymen to follow in rendering first aid to those who are burned. With their views as a basis and through the fine cooperation of Professor Roger Adans and his associates, it lias been possible to standardize the giving of first aid to those who are burned in the cnemical laboratories. The new method employed removes the danger of poisoning where burns are extensive, gives prompt relief, does not interfere with more extensive treatment at the hospital, and is in accord with the consensus of opinion of the leading specialists in indus- trial medicine.

HEALTH EDUCATION A study of the health education of high school graduates was made under the supervision of Dr. John R. Cain as a part of F.E.R.A. Project No. C-l . The findings warrant the assertion that unless public school systems provide our leading citizens of tomorrow with more and better information with which to preserve their health, to protect their faiiilies, and to function as intelligent members of a complex society, many needless deaths will occur, much unnecessary suffering will have to be borne, and quackery will thrive. The data obtained indicate the gen- eral knowledge of health facts is such that the application of sanitary science and preventive medicine will be greatly retarded and in many in- stances, lost, regardless of the success of research, the generosity of

- 28 ~

philanthropy, or taxation for the com on good.

The statements of a total of 2,220 high school graduates were studied. Of these, 37 or l.Gj per cent returned questionnaires which were too incomplete to be of any val\ie. From Tables VII and VIII it is seen that 153 or only seven per cent of the remaining 2183 "'ho furnished the data requested had had hygiene in high school, and all of these ™ere taught by teachers who were giving instruction in other subjects.

U2.20

A little more than half of the 2183 high school graduates had had biology, but of these, 368 or 30. 51 per cent had been taught by teachers also giving instruction in some other subject. The amount of

- 29 -

health education which high school pupils receive through "biology will vary with the instructor and the textbook used, but it is usually alto- gether inadequate for tae responsibilities they will have to assune in life.

Only U50 or 21.99 per cent of high school graduates had had physiology in high school and more than half of these were taught by teachers who gave instruction in one or more other subjects. Where a high school instructor teacnes several subjects, it is impossible to say in which one his primary interest lies. However, as a general rale he is better prepared to teach English, mathematics, or history than either hygiene or physiology. Because physiology is the science of organic func- tion, it is frequently taught with little or no emphasis upon personal hygiene, no consideration of sanitation, and no discussion of the control of communicable disease.

General Science is increasing in popularity as an elective sub- ject in high school. Of the 2183 registrants studied, 126U or 57*9 per cent took it in high school. This subject is a nixture of -ohysics, chemis- try, biology, physiology, and nutrition. As health education for high school pupils, the vast majority of whom will go no farther with their edu- cation after graduation, it offers samrtles of the health education they should have but is entirely insufficient to prepare them for the responsi- bilities they will have to assume in their homes and in their conmunities. Of the teacuing in general science, 1-i2.2 per cent was given by teachers giving instruction in other subjects.

- 30 -

Physics was taken in high school "by 133& or 6l.2 per cent and chemistry "by 1250 or 57.26 per cent. These subjects are often taught by the same instructor who gives his entire tine to them. In many high schools, students have to take a certain amount of science to meet the requirements for graduation, but chemistry, uhysics, or both are frequent- ly considered as satisfying this standard. It is possible, therefore, for cupils to graduate from high school without having had biology, hygiene, or physiology although neither chemistry nor physics provides them witn substantial knowledge of even the elements of personal and com- munity health.

An examination of Table IX reveals that of the 2183 high school graduates -studied not one of them had been taught hygiene by a teacher who gave his entire time to the subject. Of the 153 pupils who hed taken hygiene only lU received instruction in it in connection with biology or physiology. A total of 12U or 81. 05 per cent had been taught by teachers of physical education.

Table IX (cont'd)

The practice of drafting whoever might he willing to attempt to teach hygiene and sanitation 1. clearly shown by the fact that teachers of English, mathematics, posies, history, agriculture, physiography, and chemistry were given an opportunity to instruct high school students in preventive medicine. Special training in these subjects doos not provide a teacher with an adequate background to give instruction in personal and community health.

- 32 -

The greater part of the small group of high school graduates who have had some instruction in health education received it from their instructors in physical training as occasional talks on personal hygiene. Many of the athletic directors who are in charge of physical education have had elementary courses in anatomy, physiology, and hygiene. If they were permitted to give their undivided attention to health edu- cation, they should do as creditable wori: as the teachers of Dhysiology or biology. They, however, have other activities and are faced with the stern necessity of producing winning teans or hunting for another job with which to support their families. Under such circumstances, they are too busy to give hygiene the attention its importance demands.

By offering students an opportunity to take a proficiency exan- ination in hygiene at the beginning of each semester, the University is obtaining three very important results:

- 3U-

1. a reduction in its teaching load,

2. the avoidance of requiring a student to take a subject of which he may already have a good working knowledge, and

3. the promotion of health education in the prinary and secondary schools of the state where it is very much needed.

INSTRUCTION IN HYGIENE

For the first semester elementary hygiene and sanitation was taught to I565 students of which 1172 were men and 393 women. This was an increase of 13*^1 Ver cent over the enrollment of the first scraster of last year. The registration for the second semester was 9U0 men and 375 women, a total of 1315* For this period, the increase was IS. 68 per cent over that of last year. In all, there were 20 sections for men during the first semester and 19 sections the socond while the women were taught in seven sections each semester.

The teaching load in elementary hygiene has increased with each rise in registration until the sections are too large for the best work in discuss ion- qui 2 instruction which is essential in a subject of this type. While the number passing the proficiency tests should increase- as time goes on, the above data on health education in the high schools of the state will hardly justify the assumption that the teaching load in hygiene in the University will be materially reduced by better teach- ing of the subject in the secondary schools in the near future.

The advanced course in hygiene for coaches, physical education majors, and teachers had a very marked increase in registration. The enrollment which last year was *+8 students was this year 1U9 or an in- crease of 210. k2 per cent. The absorption of this additional work in the presence of an increased registration in elementary hygiene has taxed the staff to the utmost.

- 36-

It should be noted that 27. lU per cent of student mortality during the last ten years has been caused by automobile accidents and that such accidents are about four times that of any other cause of death. Students who die while at the University are of an age of 20.92 years. Automobiles, tnerefore, are not only accountable for one-fourth of the deaths but are killing promising young men and women at an age when the maximum expenditure for their training is being made, thus asking them practically a total economic and social loss.

EXTENSION WORK

At the request of the Director of the University Extension Ser- vice, a course called Hygiene x3 has been offered. At present it has a registration of four students. The quality of work so far presented by those taking it is very gratifying. If a greater enrollment should oc- cur, this course should prove a means for students to render themselves proficient in hygiene, and it should become an important factor in the education of the public in sanitary science and preventive medicine.

Thirty-three citizens of the state have requested information on various aspects of public health and approximately 350 bulletins and pamphlets have been sent to them. A great many of these went to students or teachers of classes on health education especially interested in im- proving their knowledge of personal and public health.

The members of the Medical Staff of the Health Service have filled 35 speaking engagements and have given 20 radio talks. The lat- ter were presented in conjunction with radio station W-I-L-L. Both

- 37 - dealt witn the historical development of oublic health and with various

During- tne year, a number of conditions increased the demands upon the Health Service: (l) A rising morbidity rate throughout the country and a substantial increase in the occurrence of communicable diseases, (2) an increase of lU.72 per cent in new students, Us.?3 Per cent in examinations of Civil Service employees, and Ji&.JO Per cent in students participating in athletics, (3) an annual increase of 15*76 per cent in freshman uyjieno and 210.^2 per cent in advanced hygiene, (U) additional clerical and stenographic services in the ©reparation of complicated time summaries, such as were used under the F.E.E.A. , (5) an increasing tendency of the public to seek inmur.ization against smallpox and typnoid fever, (6) clinical and laboratory examinations of those engaged in aandling food products for the University, and an in- vestigation of epidemic enteritis in students in cooper? tion with the local and state Boards of Health, (7) special attention to the cental health of freshmen who always reauire greater consideration than upper- classmen, and (3) an increasing number of requests for health informa- tion, speaking engagements, and radio talks.

Under sucn circumstances the Health Service has load a most busy year and has had to pursue a policy of ri-.^id economy. While no

- 38 - service necessary to control disease among students has "been omitted, many foctors over which it has had no control have operated to increase demands upon its staff and budget so that it would have "been at a great disadvantage in rendering highly efficient service and in using every effective means to prevent the spreading of disease in the University population had not its personnel been willing to add materially to their regular work.
