3000 HARVARD MEN AIDED TUBERCULOSIS SEAL DRIVE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

More than 3000 Harvard men reduced their budgets by contributing sums yarying from '25 cents to $5 to buy seals last Christmas, it was stated by the Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis yesterday. This number of buyers established a record for seal sales at the University.

Of 5,511 letters sent to Harvard men considerably more than half drew a monetary response. This gratifying return made possible the transportation of a large number of juvenile tubercular patients to a summer camp in Sharon where they were given an eight weeks' sunlight treatment. In connection with the Massachusetts ten year program for the prevention of the white plague, Christmas seals will be mailed again this year to members of the University.

The envelopes containing the stamps will arrive Monday.
