FROZEN FISH
Whatever the season, fish can make a
fantastic dinner. The frozen product
offers the convenience of seafood that
is already cleaned, cut, boned and
100% edible. It is the pick of the
catch, available year round in the sup-
ermarket freezer.
Frozen fillets cook quickly and can be
prepared in a variety of ways. Fillets
can be fried, baked, broiled or
poached. They are delicious too in
chowders,' stews and casseroles. Al-
low 1/3 pound per serving and round
off the menu with vegetables,
potatoes or rice,, and dessert.
Fish makes a nutritious rain Course
any time of the year and is a popular
alternate to meat as a main course
protein food. It is also an excellent
source of vitamins and minerals, as
well as being low in calories.

average concentration of MS
patients in southwestern On-
tario, Dr. Ebers says.
MS is primarily found in
southern Canada, the nor
there United States, nor-
thern and central Europe,
New Zealand and parts of
Australia. In most of Asia,
Africa and the Caribbean the
disease is rare.
Generally a young_ per-
son's
erson's disease, MS most often
strikes people between the
ages of 22 and 25. While rare-
ly fatal, it attacks the brain
and spinal cord, producing
symptoms such as paralysis,
loss of vision, numbness,
lack of coordination and
fatigue.
Dr. Ebers explains that
the current popular theory
holds that MS is probably a
disease. of the immune
system. Researchers believe
that the immune system
may mistakenly turn on
itself or that it inadvertantly
kills healthy cells while at-
tacking a mystery virus
which has so far remained
undetected by investigators.
In MS the covering or in- ,
sulation of cells which con-
vey nerve impulses is
destroyed.
MS can be difficult to
diagnose because the symp-
toms are common , to a
number of diseases Newly
developed diagnostic tests,
which will be discussed at
the meeting, show that 95 per
cent of MS patients have a
characteristic abnormality
in their spinal fluid. This
makes early •diagnosis possi-
ble, in many cases after the
onset of the first symptom, a
boon to patients sineOpainful
and potentially risky in-
vestigations can be avoided.
Treatment is also difficult
because the disease can
spontaneously , disappear,
only to flare up again in a dif-
ferentform.
Student
funds... .
• from page 12A
dent Loan will cost OSAP
$6.2 million in 1981-82.
The Canada Student Loans
Act, although amended
recently 4y the federal
government limits
assistance to approximately
$1,800 per year to a student
attending college or univer
sits' • for two 'terms
(September to April) . This
maximum has not increased
since 1974.
The personal and living
allowance for single students
living away from home will
increase from $72, to $77 per
week under Ontario's grant
.plan.,. The _loan criteria will
allow for an increase in the
allowance to $86 per week.
The maximum allowance
for books and equipment will
be increased by 20 per cent •
for both the grant and loan
plans. ,
The maximum grant for
independent single students
will be increased from $1,000
to $1,100 per term or
semester. Most students at-
tend college or university for
two terms each year• so this
will mean that such students
will be eligible for up to
$2,200 in grants an increase
of •$200 over previous years. ,
Under the grant plan in-
dependent single students
who have worked for three
years in, the work force and
are no longer expected to be
receiving parental support
for postsecondary education
costs.
Students will be expected
to contribute more from
summer savings. The
minimum contribution from
summer earnings will in-
crease from $50 to $60 per
week. Students who search
for employment and are
unable to locate a summer
job or full employment dur-
ing this period, can appeal
this minimum. However,
they will be required to docu-
ment their employment
search.

Assistance Program assists
over 82,000 students annual-
ly. Applications are now

universities in Ontario. from
