TYPHOID CASE Water From River Probable Cause of Infection Miss Anona Hildenbrand, a mem ber of the freshman class, has been in the infirmary since October 12th with typhoid fever. A warning has been issued from the health depart ment against the drinking of water from the Willamette River and the mill-race. This water is not fit for drinking and is known to have typ hoid germs in it. Greatest Precautions Taken “Almost- from the first day the possibility of typhoid was consid ered, so that Miss Hildenbrand was isolated and precautions were taken as with a kn'own case of typhoid. Since last Sunday she has had a special nurse in attendance. While she has been very sick and has had a high fever there have been no complications and she is doing nicely,” announcement from the health department stated. Infectiorf Due To Bacillus After a report from the State Board of Health concerning a speci men of the blood, the University service announced that the blood indicated infection to be due to the paratyphoid bacillus. This bacillus is closely allied to the bacillus typ hosus and clinically the disease is indistinguishable from true typhoid. Usually, however, paratyphoid fever runs a somewhat milder, shorter course. Mill Race Water Unsafe The announcement suggested that, although no definite source of the j infection was definitely known, two : possibilities are evident. Miss Hild , onbrand’s father is reported to have I had numerous infections with typ ! lioid and possibly is a carrier. The ! other and more likely possibility, ; according to the University phvsi cia'ns, is that the infection came from drinking water directly from J the Willamette river. This water ' is safe for drinking only after it has undergone treatment. When it is realized that Springfield, only a ■ few miles’ away, empties’its sewer age into this stream and that there have been a few eases of typhoid in Springfield during the summer, the danger is apparent. That the wateij looks clear or runs swiftly does not guarantee its safety. Be cause of the low stage of the river, the danger is probably greater now than* at any other time, though it is decidedly unwise ever to drink directly from the mill-race or Wil lamette river. No Cause for Alarm The statement went on to say j that inasmuch as both the men and wlomen have access to a clean swim ming pool, there is no excuse for swimming in the mill-race or river. I Though there is no direct evidence,1 it is possjble that some 'cases of j intestinal disorders have beejn ! caused in this way. The health service emphasized the fact that there is no cause for alarm, and that the regular drink ing water is not under suspicion. But any other water both from wells and from running streams in this or neighboring localities should be used with caution.
