She quoted medical authorities in
this country supporting her on one
OF the principal points in the con-
troversy raised by today's commit

are based on concept of infantile
paralysis different from that Of the
medical profession, and this con-
cept is one Issue.
She maintains that what goes on
IN the muscles themselves at the
time Of the sickness is largely re-
sponsible for the later paralysis.
The medical concept is that this

Barrow Unit A.T.G. Active in Many Respects

agreed that three rifle shots in ra- pid succession should be the sig nal of anything of suspicious na- ture. The dinner was over at the Brewer home when the operator in charge of the Signal Corps was told by one of his men that the army had sent out all alert for all of Alaska. About half an hour later, rather palefaced young man announced three shots in ra- pid succession had been heard from out on the ice.
 The men left the party at once and hurried home with all too brief thanks to such a genial host Every able bodied man met in the Native store with a loaded gun. Patrols were sent out in all directions from the village. The women and children were ordered to remain indoors. All lights were "blacked out''. Supplies of food and warm clothing were made ready, so the whole village could leave at moments notice. The comical angle was that the signal from the ice proved to be some one shooting an old dog. This is the historical background of the Barrow unit of hte Alaska Ter ritorial Guard.
 The Present:
 On the 28th of April, 1943, the governor of Alaska, His Excel lency Ernest H. Gruening, flew to Pt. Barrow from Wainwright and points south on the Arctic coast. The Pt. Barrow unit was

Pr. BARROW UNIT tThe Unit Farthest North

The Pt. Barrow unit of the Alaska Territorial Guard had it's inception in those hectic days fol- lowing Pearl Harbor and the Jap anese occupation of Attu and Kis- ka. Then it was not as yet apart of the A. T. G. in letter, but cer- tainly in spirit; for these .Eskimos had determined to defend their homes and this coast against any invader.
 The guard was ahome-made af- fair. It had air raid wardens, fire fighters, first aid and rifle units. This latter group was made up of the. best shots and strongest men of the village. In those days a 24-hour watch was kept for enemy planes, women doing their share. Cold winter nights or storms did not stop the wardens from their watches. Everyone who could, contributed coffee, tea, sugar to keep the guard comfortable on cold nights. No one was exempt from their turn as watchman.
 Then there was the night when the entire man power of the vil- lage was on the alert. It was Christmas night, and some of us had gathered at the. home of Charles D. Brewer, Barrow's most notable citizen. IL had been

If everyone in a community outside" were given a new car and a tank full of gas, you could gauge, by com parison, the feeling of enthusiasm and interest which the arrival of the guns and the ammunition made in this village. The attend ance at drills and meetings of the Guard has been remarkably high, and interest has not waned.
 One incident among many that shows the strength and efficiency of organization, was on the day the son of the school teacher was lost on the tundra The guard was summoned, a plan for search was presented, and was being executed, when the report came of the boys discovery by plane, Had there been no organization, the authority of anyone assuming command of such an expedition would have been questioned.

Many of the 800 rescued from

Henry l.. Bruneel (D) today
had won the office of Macomb
County Register of Deeds by the
narrow margin of 176 votes from
William c. Tegeder (R) who, in
an unofficial check of the re-

The Macomb county Board of

Bruneel as the official winner,
recorded the vote as: Bruneel

MANY MINOR ERRORS
Confusion surrounding the &C.
tual outcome had hinged upon
the close vote for each man and
widespread minor errors upon
the part Of election boards and
resultant difficulties confronting
individual tabulators attempting
to keep abreast of the returns.
In completing their tedious

to Child Clinic Program

County's facilities for the study
of problem" children and the
correction of their delinquency
was made possible at Fridays

Supervisors when that body
voted to be included in the new
Children's Clinic, at Pontiac,

county's share in costs.

The state UNDERWRITERS the
salaries of a director and two
assistants, all psychiatrists, and
the three counties pay the oper-
ating costs estimated at $4,000
annually, on a pro-rated basis
according to population.
The child clinic plan has been
highly recommended to the
county by Probate Judge Joseph
v. Trombly, who produced nu-
merous letters from county
school superintendent and pre-
sented them to the board, out
lining the need for such study
center.
