Dr. Raymond F. Ruck, Acting Director of the Brazos County Health Department, said Thursday. “The reports we receive are really a sampling of what doc tors are reporting in the Bryan-College Station area. Buck said. Although the statistics max not reflect the total number of infectious diseases here, when something breaks out doctors usually report them with accu rate numbers, he added. The health department re ported that gonorrhea cases rose from 70 cases in August to 76 in September. Influenza dropped from 38 cases in Au gust to 13 in September. Infec- nine cases in September from one case in August. Strep throat eases were re ported down from 64 in August to 52 in September. “The increase in gonorrhea is because of sexual promiscuity , increased knowledge about the disease and the willingness of infected persons to report it. Buck said. It also could be re lated to the increase in the population of the area, he ad ded. The health department sends out self-addressed postcards to about 45 doctors in the twin cities every week. Each month the reports are compiled and distributed to news media and other agencies. “We have to do it this way but the only benefit we get from publicizing these reports is when there is a large breakout of infectious diseases. Buck said.

The celebrations also cemented the power of the Pathet Lao oxer the country. The 30th anniversary festivities saw the emergence of the Lao People s Revolutionary party and its leader, Kaysone Phomvihan, a 55- year-old revolutionary with strong ties to North Vietnam. The real focus of the celebrations was the Pathet Lao capital of Vieng Xay, where top Communist leaders from North and South Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos met in a mini summit which appeared to de monstrate solidarity among the three Indochina states. Since the Communist victories in Indochina last spring, Cambodia, North and South Vietnam and Laos each have shown a strong interest in maintaining their national indepen dence. Cambodia s close ties to mainland China and the preference of Vietnam and Laos for the Soviet Union also haxe demonstrated that the four countries would not, in many cases, act xvith unanimity. Prince Souphanoux ong tlienonv inal leader of the pro-Conimunisi Pathet Lao, stressed the common origins of these revolutionary re gimes in his remarks commemorat ing the unsuccessful declarationol independence from France after World War II. "Our Lao people are extremely proud and jubilant to have been under the clear-sighted leadership of the ICP, he said. "Now file Lao People s Rev olutionary party has also written pages of wonderful his ton.'
