ARE HICCOUGHS NEXT?
May Be "a Sort of Supplement to Flu
Epidemic


Epidemic.
Will Oakland be visited by a hic-
cough epidemic?
Reports coming from Louisville and
other parts of Kentucky, that hun
dreds of residents of the Blue Grass
State are suffering from hiccoughs as
result of the recent influenza wave,
have caused physicians to ask the
aforementioned question.
At Johns Hopkins Hospital, Balti-
more, physicians said that since the
influenza epidemic subsidized in that
city, only one case of hiccoughing
came to the attention of the doctors in
charge at the institution A medical
student, few weeks after he regain
ed mis- health following an attack of
influenza, complained to the physi-
clans that he was subject to constant
trouble from the disease which is now
alarming in Kentucky.
In Oakland there have recently de-
veloped two cases of the disease. In
both instances, however, the trouble
responded to treatment, but for sew
eral days the condition of the suffer-
ers caused considerable worry to their
families and friends.
