student at Beloit College, Beloit,
Wisconsin, has recently received
high honors for her performance in
the play "As Husbands Co." which
was presented by the Beloit Play

an American woman, recently re-
turned from Europe with a newly
acquired continental sense of val
ues. The following is a write-up
clipped from a Beloit paper:
High honors for performance
last night were taken by Jean Grier
who interpreted her role with a
realism seldom, if ever, surpassed
in Players history. Taking an ex-
ceptionally difficult role involving a
rather delicate combination of ac-
tion, speech, and emotion, she gave
to. her part a certain understand
able livableness which could not
fail to appeal to any audience, no
matter how varied. OF all the cast
it was she who was most suitably
fitted to her role. Although her
presentation was not perfect, it

Interest Mounts In
Irnmunization Drive
Health Board Program Against
Disease is Well Received

That Delaware's interest con-
tinues to mount in the immuniza-
tion program against typhoid fever,
smallpox and diphtheria which is
being carried ON by the State
Board of Health, is evidenced by
the fact that over $4,000 immuniza-
tions were given in the state during
the week just past. This is an in
crease of approximately 1000 over
the number done in the previous
week, every county having shown
a substantial increase.
Children continue to form the
majority of the people taking this
treatment to prevent epidemics
before they happen" Adults are
urged to go to their physicians for
the treatments but for adults and
children who want services at the
clinics it is stressed that they
should go now, as it will not be
possible to conduct the immuniza-
ton clinics indefinitely.
ImmunizatiOn Reactions
Many questions have been asked
about the effects of these immuniz-
ing treatments, and the Board of
Health makes these explanations.
