Ach oo— Spring Term Hoy fever, Colds Cause Sneezing-Achoo By LARRY MEISER A lot of people have been sneez ing recently—but the reasons why 'were different this week than they were last week. With this statement, Dr. Squire Bozarth of the Infirmary launched a protest against Oregon weather Thursday. He cited widely differing night and day temperatures and daytime heat as responsible for reddened eyes, runny noses and general dis comfort of recent victims of hay fever and colds. Last week was a high for colds; most of the infirmary beds were filled with serious cases, while scores of students sought out-pa tient help. Spring, Fall Worst “Spring and fall are always the worst seasons for colds,” Dr. Bo zarth reported. “Though all doc tors do not agree, I think any ex treme change in temperature af fects the membranes of the nose and throat making them fertile fields for cold virus. “As our civilization becomes more specialized people become more nervous—thus more inclined toward allergies such as colds and hay fever. “Daytime heat combined with low humidity results in a high pollen count in the air, the cause of hay fever. Last spring was one of the worst seasons for itchy eyes and noses. Same Medicine Used ^ “One convenient thing about some people having colds one week and hay fever the next is that the same medicine, the anti-histiamine Ex-Officers, ROTCers Invited to Military Ball Advanced ROTC students and Army, Navy, Marine, Air Force, and Coast Guard reserve officers on the campus are invited to at tend the formal Military Ball sponsored by the Lane County chapter of the Reserve Officers Association in the Veterans Mem rial Building this Saturday. The ball climaxes the 26th an nual National Defense Week, a project of the officers’ group. How ever, all former officers and their guests are invited whether or not they are members of the associa tion. Tickets are available on the campus from Charles Wetherbee at the School of Architecture and Bob Karolevitz at the University Press. Physics Report Thursday Thomas Ashford, resident assis tant in physics, will give a seminar report on “Use of Microwave Spec troscopy in Biological Tracer Work’’ at 4 p.m. Thursday in 105 . Deady. drugs can often be used to relieve symptoms of both,” Bozarth said. The only non-medical relief for hay fever is to move to another climate, the doctor reported. So, while some people wish for sunshine and high temperatures a minority keeps hoping for rain to keep the pollen out of the air. If it does rain and turn cool, the cold catchers wish again for fairer weather. Some people can’t win in Oregon.
