A simplified, low-cost syph-
Ills test that does away with
hypodermic needles, centrifuges
and other laboratory equipment
was described to veneral disease
experts at their five-day meet
ing here last week.
The new method which so
far has proved as accurate in
detecting syphilis as other
blood tests has great poten-
tial" when used in mass SCREEN
ings and in rural areas away

a spokesman for the Public

RIA TO Sell
Apartments
Citedby DC.

A Redevelopment Land
Agency official said yesterday
that an apartment project it
owns and which has been cited
for violations Of the District
housing code will be sold
shortly to the former owners.
Allan B. Elliot, assistant di-
rector Of the RIA, said that
the property, the Kober- Stern
berg Apartments, in the 200
block Of o and p streets, S.W,,
are now operated by William
Calomiris. Washington realtor.
Mr.. Calomiris' firm, South
west Properties, Inc, did own
the apartments. but sold them
to RIA in 1859 when the
agency was acquiring proper
ties in this urban renewal area.
Renovation Proposal
Mr.. Elliot said that Mr..
Calomiris is hesitant to spend
money for repairs Of the apart
ments until they are sold back
to his firm.
However. Mr.. Elliot said that
Mr.. Calomiris has submitted
proposals for renovation of the
buildings which exceed the
housing code requirements.
I'VE are now reviewing these
proposals to make sure they
comply with the urban renewal
plan," Mr.. Elliot said. when
this review is completed the
RIA director will recommend
to the RIA board that. the
property be sold back to the
former owners"
Resale is Planned
Mr.. Calomiris was summoned
to a Corporation Counsers
hearing Friday in Municipal
Court to answer citations
for the the housing code vio-
lations. At the hearing, Mr..
Calomiris and Mr.. Elliot told
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Clark King that RIA intended
to sell the apartments to Mr..
Calomiris soon and that he
would then make the necessary
repairs.
Mr.. King asked Mr.. Elliot
to submit written assurance
from RIA that this resale would
take place soon and continued
the case to October 10.
Mr.. Elliot said that RIA had
to buy the apartments since
the redevelopment plan did not
exempt any property from ac-
QUESTION. He added that RIA
has always planned to resell
the properties under an agree
ment that they would be rem
ovated to meet the urban re-
newal standards.
He added that the housing
code violations at the apart
ments cited by the District
housing division are relatively
minor.

card. The blood is stirred to
allow the red cells and color
less fluid to separate. The
fluid, or plasma. is then trans
ferred to another card treated
with q carbon substance. If
the patient is syphilitic, the
carbon and plasma will coagu-
late into small black dots. the
report explained.
In the more common tests
for syphilis, a hypodermic sy-
ringe is needed to withdraw a
quantity of blood which must
then be separated into red cells
and plasma by means Of a CEN
trifuge.
Faster and Cheaper
The new test takes about ten
minutes to complete, compared
with roughly two hours for the
more complicated laboratory
test. In addition a syphilis test
using the RPR Card method
costs less than 20 cents as
against 50 or more for a labora-
tory test.
Although the developers ex-
pect the RPR Card Test to find
uses in remote areas and in
mass screening programs, they
do not believe it will replace
existing laboratory methods in
general use in cities.
Assisting DR.. Portnoy in the
development Of the RPR Card
Test was DR.. John H. Brewer of
the Hynson, Westcott g. Dun

Madden admitted he made a

on the soft Belmont turf last
week. But he was hopeful his

Instead, Beau Purple was in

Star Staff Writer

Virginia will face its tough
est test to date Saturday
against South Carolina at Co.
lumbia with Terry Sieg and
Gene Angle, the No. l and 2
right halfbacks, on the doubt
full list.
Sieg, who has improved both
as a runner and pass receiver
in recent weeks, pulled a ham,
string in Saturdays BAT VIC
tory over Davidson. Angle suf-
fered a sprained ankle in the
game.
Dick Lee has moved up to the
top right halfback spot this
week. Lee was on the second
unit before being pushed back
to the third team by Angle
recently.
Sieg and Angle returned to
the practice field yesterday but
took it easy as the Cavaliers
concentrated on pass defense.
Record Now Al
Otherwise, Coach Bill Elias
reports the Cavaliers will be in
good shape for the start of a
rough second half of the sea-
son. Virginia compiled a Al
mark in the first half, but now
takes on the Gamecocks, North
Carolina, N. c. State. Maryland
and Rutgers to wind up its
season.
The loss of Sieg would strip
Virginia of its nearest thing
to a breakaway runner. Terry
returned a punt 70 yards for a
touchdown in Virginia's only
loss, 20-15, to Virginia Tech.
He has gotten away on several
long runs since.
Terry also has developed into
a dangerous pass receiver. His
loss would strip Quarterback
Gary Cuozzo of one of his three
most reliable targets. The 9TH
ers are Halfback Bobby Free
man and End Jim Hoffarth.
Angle, a sophomore from Ro-
anoke, has come along fast
since spring drills to move be-
