Yellow Fever's Fourth

To Lagos. Nigeria, over a year ago, went Dr. Hideyo Noguchi and a party of scientists to study yellow fever there in behalf of the International Health Board of the

Rockefeller Foundation. The fever has already killed Dr. Adrian Stokes of Guy's Hospital, London. It must kill no more. Yet within a few months it did kill Dr. Noguchi and, a few days later, Dr. William A. Young, his associate. Last week as another associate, Dr. A. Maurice Wakeman, was sailing to Southampton, the fever killed him--the fourth. He was 31, "perhaps the outstanding graduate of the Yale School of Medicine." He was on his way to teach as assistant professor at Southampton.
