The State Laboratory of Hygiene, established in 1903, had by 1953 outgrown its boundaries in S.M.I. and a new State Laboratory of Hygiene was erected at the corner of Linden Drive and Henry Mall. The Laboratory carries out scientific investigation of diseases occurring in the state, makes special studies of the epi­ demiology of these diseases, and assists in the early diagnosis of certain chronic diseases such as cancer. · The sustained increase in medical school personnel, both teaching and research, has made necessary the erection of Bardeen Lab­ oratories and the new Medical Science build­ ing, to fulfill expansion demands of individual departments.

Respiratory and Rehabilitation Center commenting on the '59 Medical Alumni Day raises interesting points and possibilities. Helps Disabled to New Life Bernie felt that the day would be more at­ tractive to Alumni and wives by changes de­ pendent on the wants of our group and com­ mensurate with the times. Specific suggestions included more 'breaks' to allow fraternization during the scientific sessions and a dance fol­ lowing the banquet. In '58 the use of a private facility was tried for the banquet, similar to the attempts in former years to use the country clubs around Madison. With warm approval the wives have been invited the past two years and an effort was made to make their program interesting. Perhaps your wives would offer some sugges­ tions for the Ladies' Program.
