If they had given tests a man could understand, I wouldn't feel sore about the whole thing. What would you do with this kind of tuff from the “Reading Comprehension Test”? Sounds like it might have been writen in Washington.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6 — This is the big, lush laryngitis season on B'way and I keep running

{nto Doc Kanev and his satchel.

Doc's sort of a wizard voice repairman. : Stars with golden voices that you pay a lot to hear are often just a pain-in-the-throat to Dr. Sydney Mark Kanev. In one afternoon I saw him in Lilli Palmer’s dressing room and later in Danny Kaye's dressing room. Neither was ill. Doc had just dropped in. ; “Sometimes when people think they have laryngitis, they | don’t,” the Doc said. HN B “Sometimes I use osteopathy, Lilli Palmer or psychotherapy, to relax them. We talk it over and their laryngitis gets less serious. “I have a 7-foot couch in my office. They can lie down, or relax in an easy chair.” 5 Doc says a lot of laryngitis is just stage fright. The late Lalrd Cregar was to start a big radio show, but held his throat as though in pain and huskily said, “I can’t go on.” He did, however, after a little talking-it-over. ; An actress, who had a psychic fear of not singing as well as the woman she was replacing in a show, also got “laryngitis.” «Vocal abuse” is the cause of much legitimate laryngitis. That is overuse of the voice—too much singing. Hildegarde sometimes gets laryngitis in the summer from working in an air-conditioned room without any shirt on.

A couple of the lads came over to look at my first sample. They expressed amazement. Shortly Dr. Bailey came over. By that time I had cut the triangle away.

“Better than average,” remarked the tester. “It will be interesting to see how well you do with the rest of the tests.”
