Several months ago I tipped you
off that Hollywood would seek a
change in the income tax laws to
protect actors whose incomes
fluctuate from year to year, Now
the Screen Actors Guild has re
tained a Washington tax attorney
to fight for income taxes averaged
over a period of years instead of
annually.
I'm behind the fight 100 per
cent because a star today can be
gone tomorrow — and ditto his
cash.

Chanteuse,ls Gina Janss, the

WILE HUMANS KILL
ZOOO ANIMALS
BARCELONA— (AP) — Cruel
ty is emptying this city’s zoo.
Latest victims of the public are a
leopard, an eagle and Pip, the 20-
year-old, two and a half ton hip=
popotamus. Autopsies after death
in all three cases showed they
were due to unnatural causes.
Pip died from stomach perfora
tions caused by large quantities of
tacks, nails, lead weights and even
metal tops. The eagle and the leop
ard were found to have died from
severe blows from heavy stones
and air rifles.
~ Now zoo officials have warned
visitors of heavy fines and prison
‘sentences awaiting anyone found
molesting the animals.

GLANDULAR FEVER IS BECOMING

By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D.

Infectious mononucleosis, or
glandular fever as it is sometimes

the virus diseases, and like so

variable and its course not alike
for all people.
The symptoms may develop
either suddenly or gradually. As
a rule they start with a general
feeling of distress, loss of appetite
and vague pains here and there.
Some - fever is usual but it is not
often high. Nausea, vomiting and
a little pain in the abdomen are
common. Symptoms occur too in
the nervous .system. Enlargement
of the lymph glands in the neck
and other parts of the body are
frequent; it is this which gave it
the name, glandular fever.
It is the blood, however, which
shows the changes which make the
diagnosis. The number of white
cells in the Blood is increased.
When the blood is smeared on a
glass slide, stained and examined

under the microscope, it will show
a peculiar type of cell which was
formerly called a “monocyte,” and
which is responsible for the “mon
onucleosis” part of the name.
Except for these cells and a
complicated special test of the
blood called the heterophile anti
body test, the symptoms of infec
tious mononucleosis are similar to
a great many other conditions. For
this reason the diagnosis is often
long delayed and sometimes not
made at all.
Youngsters’ Nemesis
Infectious mononucleosis ‘is par
ticularly eommon in young people.
It occurred frequently in military
life. In most cases complete re
covery occurs after a few weeks.
In some, however, fever and a run
down feeling last for months. Now
occasional serious complications
are reported. Fortunately, this is
the exception.
There has not been any partic
larly good treatment for infecticus
mononucleosis. Recently it has
been reported that one or more of
the newer antibiotics may prove
helpful but this is by no means
certain as yet. This disease can
become more severe and more
widespread as time goes on. Pos
sibilities of this sort are always
present and make it advisable to
watch and study infectious mon
onucleosis carefully.
