Nelson, director of the University Hospital, said Monday. “The virus has been respons ible for illness throughout the community,” he said. Fred W. Dollar, director of Food Services, put much time and money into an extensive study of food conditions, but determined that no illness could have resulted from the meals served in Duncan of Sbisa Dining Halls, Nelson continued. “At first we thought it might be the result of physical exertion causing stomach cramping,” he said, “but later it was clear that the illness was medical; probably a virus which spread rapidly and could hit anybody.” The cases reported to the hos pital were evenly distributed through all classes, in both the corps and civilian areas, Nelson said. Twenty-five students were de tained in the hospital for observa tion for a short time Wednesday. TONIGHT Junior Council will meet at 7:30 p.m. in the MSC to discuss the class ball.
