Lecture Subject
At Second Hour
Dr. Morris Scherago, head of the
bacteriology department, will continue the arts and sciences open
lectures today at 9 a. m. when he
speak on "How We Resist Disease."
The class will meet in room 124 of
the Biological Science building.
"My talk will by no means be
directed only to those students primarily interested in bacteriology".
Dr. Scherago said yesterday. He
plans to give special attention to the
discussion of
and the
action of vaccines. He will discuss
the Wassermann test for sypilils
and the Widal test for typhoid
fever.
Before coming to the University,
Dr. Scherago held several positions
in the East. After teaching at Cornell's pathology and bacteriology
departments he was later connected
with the U. S. Public Service Bureau
and did research work in the laboratory of the Marine Hospital on
Staten Island, N. Y. In 1919 he came
to the University.
Dr. Scherago has won both local
and national recognition for his
work. In 1941 he was president of
both the Research Club of Kentucky
and the Kentucky branch of the
Society of American Bacteriologists. He has had more than fifty
articles in national scientific journals. In 1941 he collaborated with
Edward Kass and R. H. Weaver of
the University's bacteriology department to capture the King award
of the National Academy of Science.
