JOHN MCCORMACK AND DIA-
GRAM OF PRESENT THROAT
TROUBLE.
BY EDWARD M. THIERRY

NEW YORK, April 17.-The jinx
of the million-dollar throat has struck
another great tenor.
John Mccormick, the great con-
cert tenor, has been dangerously i'll
with an infected throat. Physicians
say he is out Of danger--but will
not sing again for months.
1t was an injury to the throat that
started the seven and half months
illness that killed Enrico Caruso,
grand operas greatest tenor.
Mccormack, worlds highest priced
singer, is suffering from different
malady than Caruso's, but there are
points Of similarity.
A capillary burst just about the
vocal cords in Caruso's throat while
lie was singing in Brooklyn, Dec. IL.
1920. Two days later he was said to
have recovered and he was able to
appear. Ten days later he developed
pleurisy and was operated on.
Last spring, much improved, he
returned to Italy. But it was to die.
For he had relapse and died the
first week week in August.
Mccormack month ago nad an
attack Of acnte larylg't lis while sing
ing in Minneapolis. etl rning to
New York he was to sing at the Hip
pndrome Sunday night, April 8. But
he was taken i'll and for the first time
in 3 years forced to abandon a con-
cert.
hiss illness was not thought to be
serious. But within a few days it
was reported that he was near death.
Now all concert engagements for
three months have been called off.
McCormack's latest throat attack
is called an outgrowth Of the Mime
apolis illness and due partly to his
refusal to rest sufficiently. Within
few days he lost 20 pounds-he
normally weighs 220-due to great
ly swollen uvula, making it impos-
sible to take solid food and actually
threatening strangulation. Physi-
clans said he had strptbcoccic in
fectiye throat.

GOOD HOUSE REEFS
EORGIA GLEE CLUB

The Georgia Glee club appeared at
the Rylander theater Saturday night
in variety of college stunts and
songs, and the Mandolin club and
orchestra presented a program Of
lively and tuneful instrumental
music A good house greeted the uni

ceded that the program and talent
were not up to former standards,
but the audience was sympathetic
and gave the college lads the fullest
measure of support.
The tea-dance which began at 80
and was resumed after the perform
ance. at the theater was a successful
and brilliant social event, with dane
ers present from many surrounding
towns as we'll as this community.
