SALMON OUTPUT IN BRISTOL BAY
 BREAKS RECORD
Final Report Shows l. Cases-Exceeds
 l933 by About 80,000

A record pack of salmon in Bris- tol Bay this year is revealed in final preliminary figures received today at local headquarters of the United States Bureau of Fisheries.
 The total pack there of all species for the current season was 1,73l 678 cases, of which 1,676,942 were red salmon. In 1883, the record year, the total pack was 1851, ,67O cases, including 1,614,675 cases of reds.
 While these figures are prelim- mary, representing what is known as the bathroom count, the final rechecked figures do not usually vary more than a few thousand cases. This large pack was not foreseen by the packers nor the bureau, since the l939 pack was not unusually large.
 The pack would have been even larger had the canners shipped in a larger supply of cans and tin. Not expecting another record year, many of them reduced their can shipments and were filled up be- fore the end of the season which occurred last Wednesday. The es- exponent in all the Bristol Bay districts is reported to have been very good.

NEW YORK, July 30. -- Four New York physicians, submitting to the scratch of infantile para lysis vaccine needles, have joined a dramatic but unnumbered com- pany of doctors who have volun- teered their own bodies for ex- periment-the silent partners of medical discovery.
 The New Workers are trying one of the first paralysis vaccines to be used on human beings. Here tofore such vaccination has been too dangerous and doubtful for anything except animals. They say they are taking no risks, that it's nothing to talk about.
 That phrase" nothing to talk about"-pictures the whole con- pany, past and present, and the sort of courage they possess, a bravery that does without boast ing Although medical men say there have been thousands of such self experiments, medical litera- ture runs true to form-it doesn't record them any better than the physicians themselves.
