For Friday January 24, the immunization for the meningoccal meningitis is scheduled to take place all day at the Alumni Gym ifthe supply is available. If you have to miss or missed the immunization, then you should contact the Medical Centre on campus at 566-0616. On Prince Edward Island, there have been close to 15 cases reported of this disease. The Department of Health and Services says that immunization is not generally recommended, but since there has been an increase in the number of cases, vaccinations have been given to junior and senior high students and will be given to university students, pre-schoolers, grade school children, and anybody else who would like to be vaccinated. When you are vaccinated, a swelling will develop on your arm which received the shot, and you may feel slightly feverish afterwards. Meningitis is not greatly spread around, but to de- crease the severity of this disease, you should not share any food, drinks orcigarettes. Dr. Lamont Sweet suggested that face to face contact should be seldom for the next few weeks. If you do have the symptoms of meningitis such as skin rash, stiff neck, the flu or bad headache, please do not hesitate to call your doctor. | Itis very important that you should get this vaccina- tion. 3 Immunization Comes to U.P.E.I. = RESIDENCE BURSARY.- BERNARDINE HALL ($500) Following are the terms of reference for the above- named bursary: 1.
