SHOWCASE ATTRACTION
Purdue University's glamorous and versatile Purduettes will offer a program of music from Broadway and recent hit charts at the next 5howcase of Music. The Purduettes' performance will begin at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday in the auditorium of the IUPUI Lecture Hall Center.
The group is directed by Bruce G. McGuire, associate director of Purdue Musical Organizations, and accompanied by Alice B. Coate, assistant to the director.
Known throughout the Midwest, the 24-member group performs almost weekly. On occasion the Purduettes have toured with the Purdue Varsity Glee Club.
Touring figures importantly in the history of the choir. It was formed during World War II and spent much time traveling with USO units. By the time the war was over the fun of singing together had caught on WithPurdue women and the Purduettes have continued to entertain.
The performance is free to IUPUI students who have an I.D. card. Single admission at the door is $1 for members of the public and faculty.

held at the School of Nursin

The meeting is intended for professional personnel, community leaders, persons with sickle cell disease, parents of children with the disease, schoolteachers and
principals, medical and nursing students and any others who may have contact with the disease. All interested residents of the area are invited to spend the day or attend any part of the program, Dr. Merritt said.
Of the total of 21,507 persons tested by the Indianapolis center since its opening in 1971, 10.48 per cent proved to have the trait, and 3 per cent actually have the disease. Under certain circumstances, those having the trait may have children with the disease~ according to Miss Barbara Houston at the center.
The Indianapolis center is one of 15 of its type across the country funded by the National Institutes of Health, Miss Houston said. Its mission is education, screening, genetic counseling, and research in sickle cell disease. Much of the work is done at the center at 3549 North College Avenue, but some clinics and testing services are scheduled in other sections of the state and the research is based
at the medical center.
Various facets of the disease will be discussed by visiting authorities during the Wednesday program which opens with 8 a.m. registration. Morning topics include
"Sickle Cell Trait, Fact and Fancy," "The Adolescent and Adult with Sickle Cell Disease," "The Si0.e ...-Cell Disease Patient as a Member of Society" and a general
panel discussion. .
Dr. Raymond 0. Pi ce chairman of the Indianapolis center advisory board, will be chief speaker for the noon luncheon in Fesler Hall. ·
Afternoon workshops include "Care Between Crises," "Education, Screening and Counseling,"
