Krall, the study confirmed what many specialists have suspected: that diabetes is on the increase in the U.S. and is far more widespread than official reports have indicated.

...balance and for technical smoothness the October Advocate rings true: the University's oldest surviving journal now hits the stands with a professional post-war product that appears to have beaten the first gimmicks of revival.
