Diphtheria immunization treat
ments in all rural schools OF I'M
perial county but one have been
completed, DR.. Warren F. Fox,
county public health officer, an
nounced today.
Palo Verde, with six pupils, is the
school which has not been offered
immunization. This school will be
visited within the next few weeks,
DR.. Fox said, and physical exam
nation of students made.
In each of the other rural county
schools two injections have been
made in the diphtheria treatment.
In referring to diphtheria treat
ments, the health officer stated
that he wished again to call to the
attention of parents the fact that
one immunization treatment does
not protect a child from diphtheria,
but that the second treatment is
necessary. The second treatment
may be received from family doc

calling Dr.. Fox office in the coun-
ty court house.
Reports that two families in
Winterhayen are suffering from
smallpox caused DR.. Fox to urge
all parents to take their unvaccin-
ated children to the family physi-
