US Resistance Stiffening In Philippines
Washington — (UP) — General Douglas MacArthur today appeared to be erecting an "American Tobruk" in the Philippines, aided by momentary Japanese preoccupation with their offensive against Singapore and the Dutch Indies.
For nearly 40 days he has held out against devastating Japanese assault and today there were hints in Tokyo propaganda reports and the official American communiques that his forces still pack a punch.
The Japanese, in fact, went further than Washington's official advises and frankly admitted that MacArthur has launched counter-attacks against the troops which are pressing his Bataan province lines. Tokyo insisted, however, that the counter-attacks were not effective.
The American reports credited MacArthur with a handy victory in a battle of big guns in which Japanese attempts to soften up MacArthur's lines for large-scale land assault failed notably.
However, it was emphasized by all informed military sources that MacArthur's battle is strictly defensive and against odds which mount in direct ratio to his losses of men and consumption of ammunition, food and material.
His task is to inflict as heavy losses as possible upon the Japanese; to deny them as long as possible the use of Manila Bay's excellent harbor facilities; and to maintain his position as a thorn in the side of the Japanese forces occupying the Philippine.
MacArthur's position was likened to that of the British at Tobruk on the Libyan shore with the difference that there is only the scantest possibility of reinforcing and supplying him by sea as the Tobruk garrison was during its long siege.
In contrast, MacArthur's forces and supplies are presumed to be considerably more ample than those which the British had when they were hemed in at Tobruk.
While MacArthur fought his stubborn battle, American air forces appeared to be massing in the Dutch Indies and possibly at Singapore for the first real test of U.S. versus Japanese air power.

University Grad Discovers New Pneumonia Virus
Clara Nigg, a bacteriology major who received her A.B. degree from the University in 1921, has discovered a new pneumonia virus in the throat washings of influenza patients. She made the discovery while working with the Minnesota state department of health influenza research laboratory.
Doctor Nigg made the discovery while working with white mice. The virus caused a typical pneumonia in the mice which had been inoculated with throat washings of influenza patients.
The investigations were financed by a grant from the International Health division of the Rockefeller foundation.
There are two other viruses resembling the new virus. It is not definitely known if any of the three is the cause of atypical pneumonia. Some cases of so-called influenza of the past few years is thought to have been this new kind of pneumonia.
The account of Dr. Nigg's discovery reached Prof. N. P. Sherwood's office through a newspaper clipping printed in the Washington Daily News.
Doctor Nigg is now associated with Squibbs and Co., Newark, New Jersey. A full account of the discovery is in the current issue of "Science."
