Fraternities - are they
good or bad?
It's a question discussed
anXiously by parents and
educators as we'll as the stu
dents themselves.
And. like most hotly argued
questions, there are two very
good sides.
For instance, Harry, a
young friend of mine, is not
going to return to the uni
versity next fall. He joined a
fraternity and spent too
much time in it's social life.
His grades did not match his
social success. He failed.
But another young friend,
Joe, will return to college for
his senior year. He. too, join
ed a fraternity. But his grades
rose steadily year after year.
And he has met warm friends
who will be friends for the
rest of his life.

ON EDUCATION

It's largely a matter of
what fraternity you choose.
Fraternities provide a social
background; they engender
poise and confidence. But
they vary widely in scholastic
standards. Choose your fra
ternity as carefully as it
chooses you!
Particularly, scrutinize the
seniors. Choose a fraternity
with seniors of the type you
would like to be when you
are a senior
Standards Vary
Individual fraternities keep
approximately the same
scholastic standing year after
year. In some, the scholas-
tic standing always is high;
in others it always is low.

STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
impatient Man Wants Ulcer Out
By DR.. PETER }. STEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: My
husband is impulsive. He has
Just learned that the stom-
ach trouble he has been hav-
ing for the past few months
is due to a duodenal ulcer.
His doctor has laid out a plan
for medical treatment, but
but John insists on surgery.
He wants to have it operated
on and done with.
He likes his tobacco, cof-
fee and occasional drink too
much to have to 60 along
living without them. May l
have your opinion?- Mrs. D.
LIKE MANY others, your
husband thinks that operation
is the answer and the cure
all for duodenal ulcer. I wish
it were true. If it were, doc
tors would recommend such
surgery Immediately upon
making the diagnosis. An
acute appendix has to come
out Immediately, but there's
usually no hurry about oper-
alton in an uncompllcated
ulcer.
Unless there is hemorrhage,
perforation ian actual hole
with escape of stomach con-
tents into the abdominal cav
ity) or obstruction Tin which
the outlet of the stomach is
being actually closed down
and prevents passage OF
food) - most doctors agree
that conservatism is best. Al
though operation helps many
ulcer patients, it does not in
variably produce a cure.
One estimate is that about
/ in 10 persons has had, has
or will have an ulcer of the
duodenum or stomach. It's all
tied up with excessive secre-
ton of hydrochloric acid and
the susceptibility of the
stomach wall itself to ulcera-
ton.
In some way, emotions seem
to be tied into the problem,
too. Your husband had bet
ter not rush in where 9TH
ers have and been sorry for
it. It's much wiser to go on
an ulcer regime even though
it hurts. Il assure you it
doesn't hurt so much as the
knife especially when there
hasn't been a good surgical
result.)
His doctor will probably
ask him to give up his eX-
cessive smoking, his coffee.
spicy foods and his alcohol.
The chief purpose of medical
management is to counteract
excessive acid secretion.
In addition he will pre-
scribe tranquilizers, sedatives,
periods of rest and relaxa-
ton, relief from tension and
emotional storms. Your hus-
band will take medicines we
call antacidS (to neutralize
hydrochloric acid in the
stomach) and other drugs
whose purpose is to try to
cut down excessive secretion
by the stomach glands.
In a general way, that's
about it. There will be times
when the ulcer will try his
patience. He may have re-
currenceS of symptoms even
after he has taken good care
of himself. He will then be
tempted, all the more, to have
an operation.
BUT THAT'S the deviliSh
way in which some ulcers act
If he is patient, most of the
pain and discomfort5 will
disappear, and he will go on
for months being comfortable
again.
If your husbands listening
or reading this-let me
repeat: My advice on opera
ton at this time? No. I agree
with his doctor.

can leave the heavy loads in camp and take
days hike to some peak or mountain pass
which always affords unlimited views in
all directions. On a warm, sunny day we
might stay around camp and explore the
surroundings fish, swim or just loaf as the
spirit moves.

spent sleeping under the stars returns many
times during the year to refresh my spirit
