NEW YORK—(U.P.)—The sad news from the health front is that penicillin and other antibiotics have lost some more of their magic against bacteria which sicken and sometimes kill us.
Wonder Drugs Losing Magic
Evidence of this has cropped up in the treatment of complicating bacterial diseases which commonly accompany measles. It appears to justify the belief of some scientists that the day will come when antibiotics have no magic left.
Measles is a disease caused by a virus, and antibiotics have no effect on viruses. But the measles viruses make human-being susceptible to disease-causing bacteria, and in their heyday the antibiotics were highly effective in slaughtering bacteria.
The day of reckoning is at hand, it would seem on the basis of evidence gathered by Louis Weinstein, a doctor of bacteriology as well as of medicine. Dr. Weinstein is a professor at Boston University Medical School, lecturer at Harvard University Medical School, and an outstanding authority on infections diseases.
What has been happening over the years is that bacteria, which can and do "resist" the antibiotics, have been replacing the bacteria which couldn't and so died.
Class Publishes Volume On Deans
WACO, Tex. — (I.P.)—Nine students in a Baylor University graduate education class have written and published a 60-page book summarizing their study on "The College or University Dean," and offered it as a guide for future classes in the subject. The accomplishment is viewed by their teacher, Dr. Gordon G. Singleton of the Baylor School of Education, as one of the most commendable pieces of work he has witnessed in American graduate study for five quarter hours of university credit. Collaborators on the book were students in Dr. Singleton's evening school course, Education 496, which considers the office of college dean. Dr. Singleton said that he was so proud of the work of his students that he personally acquired 100 of the books, and is sending them to education deans in major colleges and universities throughout the United States.
