Veterinarian
 Named for Valley

James Wilson, recently appoint ed Commissioner of Agriculture, announced May II that Dr. James Payaruski of Anchorage will set up his veterinary practice in Pal mer May 18 and will take care of territorial veterinary work in the Valley under a contract with the Alaska Department of Agri- culture.
 Because of reduction in de- partment funds, it has become impossible to continue the vet erinary program on the same bas- is as in the past, Wilson said. Tu- berculosis and Bangs disease test ing and calfhood vaccinations will continue as before, he said as will livestock health problems, of community nature, and meat inspections. Term of the contract permit Dr. Payaruski to charge fees of a reasonable rate for other services performed.
 Wilson explained, at a meeting with a group of Valley dairymen May 4, that an arrangement of this nature was the most practical way to guarantee the services of a full time veterinarian for stock men of the valley.
 Dr. Payaruski is graduate of Washington State College and is well recommended by others of his profession, it was announced. He will make his home in the valley as soon as living quarters are found.

Local P-TA Completes Busy, Active Year
The Frontiersman

The 1952-53 Palmer P-TA pro- gram drew to close on May 5, when members of the executive committee turned over records and materials to the new com mittee. The outgoing committee extended their thanks to all who participated in the associations activities the past year.
 Membership during the past year totaled 282, with a 100 per cent teacher enrolment. The De- cenber meeting saw the highest number of pupils represented when 197 persons plus several children, attended. Poor road con dition and conflicting meetings kept the April attendance at a low of A.
 At this meeting, Sergeant Stan ley Laird of the Alaska Highway Patrol presented interesting data on local motor accidents, their causes and total losses involved.
 He pointed out that bicycles are considered vehicles in this area and must keep to the right at all times, riding single file while on public highways and streets. Lights and tail reflectors are essential for night riding. It is up to the parents to instruct the young people on safe riding of bicycles, he said.
 Speaking briefly on first aid in case of an accident, Sergeant Laird told the membership to make the victim comfortable and warm while waiting for a doctor. Also included on the thought of safety was list of first aid ma terials to keep intact in case of home accidents. Rev. Edward Imme, director of the local Civil Defense organization presented this information.
 Dr. Curtis Dearborn presented a list of staples recommended at the recently held Civil Defense Emergency Food Conference, which will be published in this paper at later date.
 Members of the recreation com mittee offered detailed plan, complete with sketches and prices, for the creation of a com bination tennis-skating rink that might be built near the present school. The approval of such plan was unanimously voted by those attending.

Deadly Virus Lost Many Years
To Researcher IS Found Potent

notes originally made more than
40 years ago.
When the virus originally was
discovered. laboratory assistants
were charged every third day
with taking blood from a batch
of dying rodents and injecting
healthy specimens. The routine
that laster more than 10 years
was thought necessary to keep
the virus alive.
Infected Rats Died on.
The heavy pressure of research
and teaching prevented DR.. Novy
from freely investigating the
specimen. And in the personnel
change. the infected rats were
allowed to die and the tubes were
lost.
DR.. Novy rose to the deanship
of the. medical school and then
retired in 1885 at 10, the while
periodically urging students and
investigators to be alert for rats
that died mysteriously, hoping
to find again q living strain Of
the virus.
Then the housekeeping turned
up the tubes. still bearing labels
yellow with age.
The test tubes brown deposits
were ground up and a salt solu-
ton was added. The dried rat
blood was then extracted and
injected into five lots of living
rats.
Able to See Virus.
When it was established that
the deadly virus was still alive.
DR.. Novy came out of retirement
to join the investigation. For
the first time, with the aid of an
eltctron microscope invented
since his retirement, DR.. Novy
was able to see the virus. He
prepared a 6O-page report, which
has been submitted for pubiica-
ton in a national medical
journal.
Now. with research humming,
university scientists are investi-
eating the possibility that other
viruses. thought to die without a
living host. may be capable of
survival.
At 88. the Chicago-born doc
tor, the only living student Of
Louis Pasteur in this country. is
once again directing the re-
search program he started more
than 40 years ago.

ANN ARBOR. Mich, Jan. "a.
"A viris SO deadly that one ten
billionth of a drop will kill rats
is the center of a fictionlike
revelation from the University
of Michigan laboratories today.
The virus. whose effect on
human beings is unknown, was
first discovered in 1909 by DR..
Frederick G. Novy, the univer-
sity's famed bacteriologist.
The virus. so deadly that it
killed a set of experimental rats
every 48 to 70 hours, was
watched closely for 10 years. In
a change of laboratory personnel
sometime after World War I, the
test tubes containing the virus
were lost.
Late in 1851, during a house.
cleaning in the lab, an old or
rugated paper box. containing
test tubes, was found. DR.. Novy,
then 86 and retired. was con-
suited.
Viris Still Active.
His suspicious aroused, DR..
Novy directed experiments that
led to the announcement that
not onlv had the virus been
found, but that. contrary to
scientific belief. it was still active.
Though it had lost some of its
potency during the third of a
century. the virus still killed rs
per cent of the laboratory rats in
three to II days.
DR.. Novy Immediately set to
work and is now completing a
comprehensive report on the
