Some City Schools Are Hard Hit By Influenza

• Dr. W.D. Gath, President of the City Board of Health, will call a meeting to discuss influenza in public schools. It may be necessary to close particularly affected schools.• 70 cases and two deaths were reported.• Dr. Hurty has returned from a meeting of the American Public Health Association in Chicago. The opinion expressed by physicians at that meeting was that influenza will continue to affect the nation in "succeeding waves."• Dr. Hurty feels that closing schools in rural districts is a good precaution because children are isolated, but closing schools in the city gives children the opportunity to congregate elsewhere and transmit illness.Newspaper article
