or described in any way. After DIR.
Bass lecture the scientists inspected a
series of twenty-five laboratory slides

order to show the organism at all stages
of It's growth. Beginning today these
specimens are open to the inspection of
the public, as part of the free exhibition
on hygiene and demography. at the ex-

The species of parasite shown are those
known as the aestivo-autumnal. which

malaria research expedition to Central
America. which was in the field from
April to July of this year. and the pos
