ROOSEVELT, JR.
 STILL SICK MAN
He Has Other Troubles Aside From Sinus-But
 Later Is Only Worry

frsBoston, Dec. 17-(UP)-Franklin D. Roosevelt. Jr, son of the pres- ident. suffered from a hemolytic streptococcus infection of the throat in addition to sinus trouble, &C., cording to belated announcement by the attending physician, Dr.. George Loring Tobey, Jr.
 The disclosure was first indica- ton that young Roosevelt's condi- ton at any time was considered serious and explained the flying wis., its of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, the nations first lady, to her sons bed- side at Phillips house of Massachu- sets General hospital.
 Many Different Reports
 Ever since the presidents son was taken to the hospital, Nov. ?, at- taches have reported daily that he was merely "under observation" and that his condition was good"
 The United Press learned yester- day that a chemotherapeutic agent introduced in this country only six months ago had been used in treat ment of young Roosevelt and that his condition consequently had irn- proved 50 rapidly that he probably will be able to leave the hospital within a week.
 Though now in use in hospitals throughout the country for throat and similar streptococcic infections, medical experts said young Roose- welt apparently was one of the first sinus cases to be treated with the compound, known as prontosil in liquid form and prontylin in tablet form.
 Only Sinus To Worry
 We have only the sinus to worry about now (and) if he continues to improve as rapidly as at present, he should be able to join his fam- fly for Christmas" Dr. Tobey said. We are using prontylin against the streptococcus, but that stage has passed"
 Young Roosevelt's improvement has been so rapid, he added, that he doubted sinus operation would be necessary.
 Meanwhile, Miss Ethel Du Pont, fiancee of the presidents son, end- ed Q three-week vigil at his bed- side yesterday and flew back to her Delaware home.
