The Star tourney is open to women

not be as low as that of yesterday,
when winsome Mrs. Howard, bride
of two and a half years ago and a
golfer about the same length Of
time, scored 88-18t70 to win the
historic trophy with one of the low

South Africa, and, accord g to her,
a descendant OF Boet settlers,
played her home course at Kenwood

The two doctors have just re-

Kenney method of treatment for
polio was taken. They were sent
to Minneapolis by the Tacoma

they studied directly under Sister
Kenney.
The method. they stated.
was so simple. II was revolu-
tionary. They were quick to
add however, that infantile
paralysis was still q serious
problem and It still needed the
expert care of doctors and
technicians. Sister kenney,
they said, has shown the pro-
fession q new path and there
Is still much more to be done
Sister Kenney originally came
from Australia. While there she
was practicing nursing in the bush
country. 1t was in an isolated
area that she first ran across a
child down with fever. She was
at q loss for treatment. So, she
called a doctor and explained the
symptoms. The doctor, after hear
ing her, said that 1t was infantile
paralysis and there was nothing
more that could be done. He ad-
yised her to do. the best possible.
In his mind the child had no
chance for recovery. but he did
not say so to Sister Kenney.
some time later the doctor
saw her and inquired about
the child. Sister kenney told
him the child had recovered.
The doctor was interested. He
did not think the youth was
a victim of polio. But. after
examination, he was sure that
II was paralysis that had hit
the child. But he still could
not reason why the child had
recovered.
He asked what method of treat
ment she used. She said she mere
ly used hot packs and placed them
on the affected muscles. Soon,
she went on, the child could walk.
The rest is history Doctors
were engaged in controversies.
Sister Kenney was just lucky,
they said. But others contended
her system should bear watching.
She would be given a chance. She
soon had that chance.
When q few cases of In
fantile paralysis broke out,
sister Kenney was called.
She methodically began To
work on the helpless little
victims. She would apply hot
wool packs on the rigid or
spasm affected muscle. Soon
them uscIe would relax. APP
