Bryan Cavitt at Coulter THe Battalion -A College Station (Bragot County/, Texai Yet Med Students Testing New Shots A&M veterinary medicine stu dents are undergoing a series of shots to determine if an immuni zation against rabies can be ob tained, Dr. F. P. Jaggi, professor Veterinary Public Health at the School of Veterinary Medicine, said yesterday. According to Jaggi, college phy sicians are administering these shots to 137 volunteer veterinary students. The group received their first of the series of four shots on Feb. 26 and the last will be given April 9. The live and dead virus being used in this vaccine is of a type known as the Flury Strain, Jaggi said. He said this vaccine is bas ically the same as the vaccine Louis Pasteur developed, but im- Ocean ograph er s Start New Work A group of oceanographers, headed by Dr. K. M. Rae of the Department of Oceanography and Meteorology will begin research Sunday, on the fluxation of water conditions near Hopedale, La. The group will collect data about water currents, bayou bottoms, carbon dioxide content in the wat er, phosphate and salinity. Geolo gical cores of the bayou bottoms will be taken. The area is to be converted into a water canal connecting New Or leans to the Gulf of Mexico. The first canal is expected to be com pleted in I960. Other members of the group are Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Duxbury and Harold Loesch. portant refinements have been in troduced. This vaccine doesn’t con tain the foreign protein, which caused the reactions incurred from the old vaccine. Jaggi explained that the new vaccine being administered to the veterinary students is prepared in the chick and duck embryo. “The virus is passed in a series through the fowls embroyos to lessen its strength. At this stage the virus is extracted, deadened, and then placed into the human blood stream as the rabies vac cine,” he said. A sample of the students blood is taken before he is inoculated with the virus and again after he completes the series. These samples are then sent to the United States Public Health Serv ice at the Communicable Disease Center at Atlanta, Ga. Here, Jag gi said, a titer test is pei’formed to determine the student’s im munity against rabies. “The success of this vaccine will be checked by experimenting with mice. The mice will be given a series of graduated amounts of the student’s blood and then con taminated with the rabies virus. This will help determine the ex tent of the immunization the stu dents have acquired from this vac cine,” Jaggi said. Jaggi expressed the desire that this embryo vaccine provides the basis for a possible safe, long term immunization against rabies that can be given well before ex posure to the disease in high-risk populated groups. Industrial Majors Invited to Meeting Industrial distribution majors have been invited to Dallas during the month of April for a meeting with the North Texas Industrial Distributors Assn. Definite plans for the meeting are still incomplete, but there will probably be a dinner held before the meeting. During the first part of the meeting representatives of the larger industrial plants in Dallas will give talks about their firms. The talks will be followed by a question and answer period. Meetings of this kind have been held in the past and serve to bring college students and indust- ries into a closer relationship. YMCA to Hold Fry Thursday The YMCA will hold a steak fry in Hensel Park Thursday, begin ning at 5:30 p.m. Purpose of the fry is to have an informal discussion on the Fresh man Camp and how it should be set up and operated.
