Thursday, March 21, 1940 The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Nine Doctors Go to Bottom of Spring Fever Philadelphia, March 21 (JFi Grandmother probably will never believe it but take the word of ex pertsshe was all wrong when she gave generous doses of sulphur and molasses as a cure for "spring fe ver." There isn't any such thing. That listless feeling you get around this time of year, three medical authorities agreed today, isn't something that you can pre scribe medicine for, or put down in a textbook, or analyze under cause and effect. It Is, well "It's all a myth a state of mind," says Dr. Hobart A. Relmann, pro fessor of medicine at Jefferson Medical college. "When the weather get warm, people begin to think of going fishing and going on vacations. But they can't because they have to keep working. So they rebel rgainst the restraint and become restless. That's all spring fever Is." Dr. Myer Solis-Cohen, chairman of the county Medical Society's public relations committee, explains It this way: "The feeling you describe as spring fever is probably due to the fact that the body has become ac customed to cold weather all win ter and too suddenly Is called upon to make adjustments to warm wea ther. Probably the nerves controlling the blood vessels don't make the adjustment without upsetting you a bit." Dr. John C. Scott, professor of physiology at Hahnemann Medical college, thinks the change in blood volume may have something to do with the case. "You need more blood in warm weather to carry heat from the In terior of the body out to the skin," he said. "It takes about five days for the body to manufacture the ad ditional blood. Hence, in the first few warm days you're like an auto mobile that doesn't have enough water in the radiator.'
