The condition of the College's only polio case improved yesterday, as University officials revealed that no further cases have developed among students here.
Vernon B. Thomas '56 of Winthrop House and Chicago was stricken with "mild, non-paralytic" polio, and is now resting comfortably in the Massachusetts General Hospital.
Despite a number of polio cases in Amherst, Mass., there will be no added precautions taken here to restrict University of Massachusetts students from attending the game.
"The situation at the game will be no more dangerous than at any other time," Dana L. Farnsworth, Director of University Health Services, said yesterday.
