PARALYSIS SITUATION FAVORABLE

In an interview with a CRIMSON reporter yesterday, Dr. Roger Irving Lee '02 announced that E. Ginn '18, who is suffering from infantile paralysis in the contagious word of Stillman Infirmary is progressing favorably. The patient is not paralyzed and is resting quietly.

Dr. Lee stated that he did not consider it likely that the disease would spread through the University and therefore did not think a general quarantine at all necessary. He compared the University with the various towns and villages in the surrounding country and pointed out that if there was no fear of contagion in these small communities, nearly every one of which contains at least one case of infantile paralysis, there should therefore be no danger in a University community of over 4,000 members, when only one case has appeared. The rumor that another case has developed is false. There are no more cases and no suspects, although every sickness has been carefully examined, and there is no further apprehension felt in regard to the spread of the disease.
