STRANGE NEW DIAGNOSTIC PROBLEM FOR THE MODERN PEDIATRICIAN

Were a Rip van Winkle of the pediatric profession to have fallen asleep in 1950 one hopes that soon after awakening 20 years later, he would have called for a current journal of his specialty. Had chance presented him with this one, what would he have thought?

The preceding Commentary on rheumatic fever1 would have been vastly reassuring. Here is something Dr. Rip van Winkle, F.A.A.P., would obviously have understood. With much of it, indeed, he would have been so familiar that he might wonder if he hadn't had just a little nap. And he would promise himself, exactly as he used to back in the nineteen forties, that next year he'd certainly do throat cultures for streptococci in his office.
