Incidence Of Colds
FoIIoWsAir Count
Of Streptococci
Doctors Show Relation
Of Two Upcurves by
Tests in Large Store

Bacterial analyses of the air Of
large department store carried out
with the Wells air centrifuge during
the course of year have shown a
marked correlation between the
numbers of Streptococci of respira-
tory origin recovered from the air
and the prevailing rate Of colds as
indicated by the medical records of
the employees" John c. Torrey, PHI.
D. and Michael Lake, M. D., New
York, report in the Journal OF the
American Medical Association.
Streptococci are genus of bac-
terra which cause such conditions as
septic sore throat. commonly called
"strep throat" They are commonly
present in the throat without caus-
ing any harm unless resistance is
lowered, such Is by cold.
The two New York men say their
finding tends to substantiate the
suggestion by previous investiga-
tor that the presence of one of the
types of streptococcus, known as
alpha hemolytic, may we'll be taken
as an indicator of pollution of the
air by discharges from the nose and
throat in a manner similar to that
in which another type of bacteria
has been accepted as an indicator
of the pollution of water supplies by
sewage.
OF particular significance in rela-
tionship to the time of the year
when colds are most extensive is
the finding of the two Investigators
that "the prevalence of streptococci
and that of colds were at a mini
mum in the summer months.
The first rise in both curves oc-
CURED in October, and then, fol-
lowing a drop in November, there
occurred a steady rise to g. peak in
January and February. The strep-
tococci content Of the air appar-
emily was Influenced to greater
proportional degree by the preva-
lence of colds than by the density
of crowds. The store was by far
the most crowded during December,
yet the total count of streptococci
was increased only slightly over
that for October and was far lower
than that for February. when the
prevalence of colds reached peak
for the year. ="
AS to the source of the pollution
of the air in the store, Drs. Torrey
and Lake say that "the customers
so greatly outnumbered the sales
force in the localities chosen for
the tesD that they may be &C
cepted as the main source Of pollu-
ton of the air by organisms from
the respiratory tract. If it is granted
that such was the case 1t would
then follow that the rate for the
prevalence of colds among the en-
ployes, as indicated by the records
of the medical service, seemed to
reflect strikingiy the rate for colds

No One Injured in Unusual Double Crash on Che-
 shire Highway

The aftermath of collision be- tween two cars yesterday morning at 2 o'clock was a huge opening in the home of Miss Ruth Messinger on College Highway, Cheshire. Miss Messingers sleep was uninterrupted by the crash as the car driven by Irving Silverman of 800 Edgewood avenue, New Haven, caromed off one operated by Frank Buscis, of 1157 roth street, Brooklyn, N. Y. a soldier stationed at Camp Edwards
 Silverman's car plowed through the north wall of the house and bounced out of the large gaping hole 1t made and came to a rest against a large tree on the lawn.
 Constable Wesley O. Collins of Cheshire came to the scene when notified. of the accident and said Silverman'S machine collided with one driven by Buscis after the for- mer driver lost control of his ma chine. The constable reported the Buscias car had attempted to stop as the tire marks on the highway four feet to the right of the center indicated.
 The accident happened on a slight bend. Later in the morning, severaI hundred spectators rnilled about the gaping hole on the scene to sec the odd accident. Nolan's car was considerably damaged about the front. BuScis' machine was damaged on the rear fender.
