Because failure to detect the of ten hidden clinical manifestations of syphilis is so frequent and be cause many infected persons do not know that they km*e syphilis and therefore do not request exam inations, tasting by selective meth od results in many actual cases of the disease among college students remaining undetected. The report stresses tha need for routine blood testing. iT*o-thirds of the college offi cials approached believed some method of testing is desirable. A fair pioportion of tbs officials, as indicsted by their replies, are still of the opinion that syphilis is bounded by class or racial lines. Perhaps ths noteworthy fact found by this survey is ita Indira tion that the majority of college administration officials, howevar, are fast beginning to realise the necessity for fighting syphilis on every front—(ncludiag the colleg - campus. In many instances, this realisation, according to the re port, “seems almost intuitive." ; “A ease of syphilis found is of grant importance for what is is, no matter where it may be dis covered.
