Mrs. Helene Lubitsch, divorced wife of the director, accompanied Kraly to the opera. It was Mrs. Lu- bitsch who ended the Saturday en- counter between her former hus- band and Kraly with a resounding open handed blow to Lubitsch’s face. She accused the director of Jealousy and said he did not want her to have other men pay atten- tion to her. Lubitsch, confirming reports of the battle, said he struck Kraly be- cause the writer and Mrs. Lubitsch taunted him and ridiculed his danc- ing.

ARTIFICIAL FEVER PNEUMONIA CURE Electrical Heat Device Helps Patient Combat Germs Chicago, Oct. 8 (UP)—Induction by electricity of an artificial fever of 116 degrees is the latest and one of | tho most effective cures for pneu- monia, Dr. C. C. Vinton of New York, secretary, told delegates today at the opening of the 40th annual conven- tion of the American Physical Thera- py association. “Fever, which kills disease germs, is nature’s method of combatting sickness,” Dr. Vinton explained. “We simply have found means of aiding | nature. Also, we have learned that a temperature of 116 degrees leaves no ill effect on a patient.” Dr. Vinton said the use of “fever- ization” also has proven a valuable form of treatment for scarlet fever, diphtheria, arthritis, rheumatism, asthma and lung afflictions. In a Memphis, Tenn., hospital, he said, two physicians are using it to cure insanity by killing germs of the spinal cord and nervous system. The treatment is accomplished, by applying heat- radiating electrodes to the hody and wrapping the patient in blankets. The electrical system makes it poss ble to keep the temperature under control.

Official authority has been with- drawn from one phase of the in quiry, but private funds will be pro- vided to enable the work to con- tinue. The investigation, initiated by | Charles H. Tuttle while he was United States district attorney a for which he was rewarded with | the republican gubernatorial nomi nation, was being directed from two sources today.
