For
Tlic National Institute of Allergy
and Infectious Diseases of the U. S.
Tubllc Health Service has granted
34.010 to Dr. William J. Cromartie
f the UNC School of Medicine.
The money will be used for a five
car study of bacterial infections
i f the kidney.
Specific objectives of the proposed
studies are the development of pre
c.se methods of diagnosing chronic
infections of the kidney, determin
ing the relative importance of such
infections as a cause of kidney
failure and high blood pressure,
rd determination of the best meth
ods of treating chronic infections of
the kidney.
Infections of the kidney are very
tommon, being probably second
inly to those of the nose and throat
in frequency of occurence. There
is reason to believe that they are
a cause of certain types of hyper
tension. Despite the fact that they
recur so 'commonly, completely
satisfactory methods of a diagnosis
nd treatment have not been de
v iscd.
The funds granted will be utilized
in an effort to develop more effee-
f.vc methods of diagnosing and
treating these common infections.

for better news coverage of stu

"This coverage,'' he said, "can
be given by establishing the 'string

He would not attempt to set
up the plan right away, but
would start with the men's dorms
and add the other livirtg quarters
gradually, he said.
I have no intention of putting
the men's dorms above the other
areas just because they represent
the most votes," emphasized Sloan.
He said he has planned the pro
gram this way because the men's
dorms have always been the
weakest spot in Daily Tar Heel
coverage.
