The pre.sent rep.or,t describes the morphological and if nod H pron erative aspects of lymph es III odgkin s disease grown in tissue culture. The development of Hodgkin's lymph-nodes grown in vitro seems to depend upon the a~e of t~e person and the stage of the Hodgkin'S disease at the time the I h IS obtained. ymp - The morphological and the proliferative aspects ('hELralcteriZI~d of Hodgkin's lymph-node is _. by four cytolOgically distinct phases:

From a total of 600 nose and throat introduction swabs examined for diphtherie, 200 or 33% were positive. Cultures were carfully classified on the basis of morphological appearance and biochemical characteristics into Gravis, Mitis and Intermedius groups. A special tellurite serum agar was used for colonial appearance. Neill's broth culture was employed for haemolytic tests. The virulence of each culture was examined in laboratory animals by the agar gel precipitation method of Elek. From 200 cultures tested, 138 or 69% were gravis, 5 or 2.5% were intermedius, and 57 or 28% were mitis. 'I'hre.e strains of gravis type and one strain of mitis type were avirulent

In order to study the epidemiology of accidents in Tehran City, the author has collected and analysed records of more than 25,000 accident cases for the period 1960-61 from all available sources such as newspaper rapportages,nine major hospitals of Tehran, Forensic Medicine Department of Ministry of Justice, Vital Statistics Department of Ministry of Health, Labors' Insurance Organization, etc. Approximately 1400 deaths and 17000 severe injuries are accident-induced annually in Tehran and accidents are in the sixth place, as causes of death (=6.7%). They rank first as the pause of deaths for the age group 5-45 years (=23.8%) and fourth for the age group 1-44. (=9. 6%). The distribution of accident types is as follows:- The distribution of accident types is as follows:-
1. Motor vehicle accidents 27/8%
2. Other transport accidents 3.7%
3. Drowning 19.6%
4. Falls and builidng collapses 16.8%
5. Burns (all sorts) 12.4%
6. Poisoning 8.8%
7. Accident caused by electricity 2.6%
8.all other accident 8.3%
Various epidemiological aspects of these accidents and an analysis
of fights, suicides and murders are given in the body of the paper
