CANUTESON, M.D. (Director, University Health Service) About this time of year the Health Service expects its first case of dermatitis actinica—sunburn in plain language. This will not be sunburn incurred in the pursuit of health and vigor, but sunburn accidentally acquired in the enthusiastic but often misguided shortcut to suntan, prerequisite for summer activities and costumes. Sunbathing is an old custom with an honorable background. Eculapius first put it on a paying basis. Hippocrates used it as a regular part of his therapy. The Middle Ages saw it fall into disrepute because of its somewhat questionable associations. In the parasol and bustle period sunlight was assiduously avoided. Today we know that heliotherapy—treatment with sun rays—has a useful place in maintaining health, and a carefully distributed sunan is almost an essential of the well-dressed or undressed athlete. Aside from the cosmetic effects, which are not always up to expectations, sunbathing produces in many people definite benefits: a feeling of relaxation, stimulation of resistance to infection and improvement of some skin disorders. But there also are disadvantages. To some skin diseases and in tuberculosis of the lungs, even relatively small doses of sunlight are harmful. Overdoses produce sunstroke or heatstroke, fatigue, headaches and just plain burns. Sunburn can be just as dangerous as a burn by any other agent, and perhaps more so because usually more of the body is involved. Not all people react the same t It's All French And German to Jerald Hamilton We gee'st? Tres bon, merci! Confusing, no? It's not to Jerald Hamilton, College sophomore, who at 18, is a German lab instructor and knows more than a little about French. A Mule about French. Majoring in music, Jerry is president of both A Cappella choir and Phi Mu Alpha, music fraternity. He also belongs to the American Guild of Organists and is organist and director of the Episcopal church choir. His outside interests include philosophy and theology. lostphotography and Jerry, who is from Wichita, came to the University last fall and is a resident of Battenfeld hall. This year he is teaching three lab courses in the German department. "My ambition is to do graduate work at the Union Theological Seminary in New York and then to become a priest, organist, and choir director," Jerry says. sunlight. To some it is a delightful tonic; others achieve nothing from it but beauty and successive tumes. Blondes are more sensitive to sunlight than brunettes; men are more sensitive than women. And in ages below 20 and over 50 years sunlight is tolerated. If you must have a suntan, don't try to get it in one dose. And don't try to acquire it with your friend's sunlamp. Neither he nor you may know the lamp capacity nor the proper dosage. You are more apt to get a burn than the tan you want. Sunlamp treatments should be given only on a doctor's prescription. For outdoor sunbathing wait until the weather is warmer. Select a location sheltered from the wind. Lie with feet toward the sun. Use a suntan oil if you wish. Start with an exposure of ten or fifteen minutes front and back, depending upon your skin pigmentation. Increase the dose five minutes daily. And don't go to sleep in the sun. You will be a lot healthier, and handsomer, with an untanned skin than with a shell like a boiled lobster. NEW at the LIBRARY Becker, Belle: Bedside book of famous French stories.
