WAYNE ANDERSON Campus Digest News Service Q. Which is the most harm ful, syphilis or gonorrhea? A. Some years ago I would have said, “Obviously syphilis since it’s the one that can kill you.” Today I would say it’s a judgment call and my present judgment is that gonorrhea is the most harmful. Syphilis is life- threatening, and the fourth stage, which develops two to thirty years after the disease has been contracted, can affect any organ in the central nervous system or car diovascular system. It can cripple; it can kill. But it is no longer the great danger it once was. It affects probably 75,000 new cases a year, but it is easily treated with penicillin and the dose required is the same as that required when penicillin was first used. The spirochete has not developed any immunity to penicillin. Even among those persons who are treated, 50 percent recover spon taneously, 25 percent are asymptomatic, that is, they have the disease but it is controlled by the body, and 25 percent develop serious symptoms. Gonorrhea on the other hand is usually not life- threatening and is more or less restricted to the genitourinary area, which includes your internal sex organs. So far not so bad, but consider that it effects probably 1,500,000 new people each year. Also consider that the gonococcus is constantly finding new ways to avoid being killed by penicillin so that we now need to give those affected a dosage which is many times that which originally cured the disease. New strains are constantly being developed, and while there have been stories for years about vicious strains that were totally out of con trol, a sufficiently high dosage of penicillin was known to cure all known strains. Now there is finally a report of a strain that does successfully resist penicillin. The disease, while painful in men, is rather obvious and the victim knows that he must seek treatment. Serious complications are rather rare. In women, on the other hand, there may be no symptoms; she only knows she has gonorrhea if her sex partner reports that he has contracted the disease from her. Diagnosis and treatment are also much more difficult in women; for example, the dose of penicillin is twice that given to men. The two major complications that women develop are inflammation of the Bartholin’s glands and inflammation of the Fallopian tubes. Both can require surgery and the latter can result in chronic invalidism and sterility. At one time, by the way, 33 percent of the cases of blindness in children were the result of gonococcal infections which the newborn acquired from its mother. Neither disease should be treated lightly. They both have their dangers, but the sheer number of gonorrhea cases and its developing resistance to treatment make it the more harmful disease at the moment. MUSICAL BRIEFS by Mary “Bunny” English Hamilton Bohannon Once the lights are out and everyone has gone home, most musicians part from their music. Bohannon and his music are never parted. Mr. Bohannon has a degree from the University of Louisiana. He plays several instruments and writes much of his own material. He doesn’t like the word “Funk.” Music is supposed to make people happy, he feels. Funk seems to suggest to him something sweaty. John “Longhorn” Mosely John is one of the bright young men of today. He is of special interest to Fayet- tevillians because he has relatives here. John’s feeling of music comes from the fact that he has studied at a leading conservatory in New York. He is now putting that study into action and is currently doing an extended tour with Hamilton Bohannon. “Louis Armstrong and anyone else that blew a horn were my idols. I’ve been playing since I was six years old. Hopefully, I’ll have my own release out by summer,” Longhorn commented. BECOME A COLLEGE CAMPUS DEALER Sell Brand Name Stereo Components at lowest prices.
