OF
TIL E P A S T
By CAROLYN LLOYD

What, inquired a reader of
Golfers magazine in a Letter to
the Editor recently, "does a col
umnist write about when he
doesn't have anything to say?"
The answer to that one is easy
just read any column regularly
and you will find out. Of course,
having nothing to say ever stopped
a writer or a talker yet; so l shall
beg the tolerance of my readers
this week as / wander from sub
ject to subject.
The Letter to the Editor section
of any newspaper or magazine al
ways intrigues me. Almost every
paper has its regular contributors
to that section, and it puzzles me
to think that anyone has so much
time on his hands that he can sit
down and air his opinions on any
and every topic on the average of
twice a week. Some of the letters,
of course, are timely and intelli-
gent and are written to express a
strong conviction on a topic of
public interest. Many, on the
other hand, seem to be the work
of frustrated writer's who like to
see their names in print. There
have been times when l have been
tempted to inform The Editor of
my opinions; but one thing always
stops me-it's just too much
trouble to write the letter. Since
no one would care, probably, what
1 thought about the subject, per-
haps laziness has its advantages
sometimes.
1t seems that every publication
lately has an article on the de-
plorable spelling of today's public
school student. The writer's of said
articles usually state that a fifth
grade child of today simply can't

Here's Some Vital Information
On Securing The Polio Vaccine

Swer. 1t may require one, or
frequent booster shots.
9 - Is there any way of
telling if an individual is i'm
mune to polio?
A = No simple way at pre-
sent. Doctors at Children's
Hospital are able to determine
it, but he process is unbeliev-
ably and impractically COM
plicated. Speakers at the
scientific session at Ann Ar
Dor placed a simple test for
immunity as one the early OBJ
jectives of polio study.
@ = Does the vaccine i'm
munize against all three types
of polio.
A - Yes, against the known
types. The vaccine is made
according to Specifications of
the National Institution of
Health and must have equal
parts of dead virus of the
brunhilde, leon and lansing
strains.
@ - Are there any other
types of polio?
A - Not now known. But
Massachusetts, had orphan vi
ruses about last summer that
looked and acted like polio
viruses and were not polio.
They even caused mild paraly-
sis, and some of the cases
that were identified as polio,
although the patients had re-
ceived vaccine, may have had
this orphan strain.
@ = Does the vaccine i'm
munize against all polio?
A = The objective is to i'm
munize against paralytic po-
lilo. A non-paralytic case con-
fers. lifelong immunity and
most adults have such protec-
ton.
@ - Are these dead viruses
the answer to the need for
immunization?
A Many doctors thought
they were not. Some Boston
doctors have been working to
obtain a safe and effective
vaccine made Of live viruses.
But the results of the salk
vaccine test last year have
convinced many that a vac
cine made Of dead viruses will
be effective enough. And it
has been shown that it is free
from danger.

Beauty Hints
81 NINA TEMPLE


As simple as a smile seems
to be, there are many women
who do not know how. More
over, they do not know that
they don't know how to smile.
They can grin. They can
grimace. They can diStort
the mouth and make It ugly
while thinking they are srnil-
ing.
But alasl Few know this
art. Aware Of this fact, a
woman should sit before her
mirror and practice until she
learns to smile attractively
The corners Of the mouth
should turn up. Her eyes
shold alight and the whole
face beam in the act OF smil-
ing.
Smiles are the bulwark of
the ageing woman, giving any
face, no matter how scanned
and unpreposseSsing, a GER
tain charm Learn to smile!

polio vaccine.
Q - Is my child eligible
for free Uaccine shots from
the National Foundation for
TnfantiIe Paralysis?
A - If the child is in the
first or second grade in pub
lie, private or parochial school
in any of the 351 cities or
towns in Massachusetts,; If
he is in the third or fourth
grade in one Of the Is towns
that had the trial test last
year and received the placebo.
20 = When UtH he recetue
his first shots2
A - The state Department
of Health expects shipment of
the vaccine within days, now
that it has been licensed by
the National Institute of
Health. AS soon as it is re-
ceived at the Forest Hills Lab
oratories, distribution will be-
gin. As soon as the vaccine
is received in the towns, ar
rangementS will be made to
give the first shot in the in
diYidual schools.
20 : Who nil gtue the shots?
A = Each town has set up
its own arrangements. In
some it will be school physi-
clans; in others, city or town
doctors; still others have vol
unteerS among the physicians
in private practice. Boston
school doctors will give the
vaccine to Boston public
school children; City Of Bos-
ton doctors to parochial
school children.
Q = HON many shots lOtu
there be?
A That is not known.
DR.. Jonas Salk recommended
Tuesday in Ann Arbor that
two shots; spaced two to four
weeks apart, be given; then a
third, booster shot, be with
held until seven months up to
a year have passed. Plans
had been made originally to
give three shots within five
weeks, as was done in the
trial run last year.
Q = When l0ill ne EnoaD

)ut distribution OF the Salk
Queer of the vaccine quoted
in Ann Arbor Tuesday a price
Of Sc for vaccine enough for
three shots. Other houses have
quoted varying sums for the
vaccine.
Q = Should my child be
vaccinated?
A DR.. Salk thinks in
fancy is not too young. He
has inoculated babies 8 to 6
months old. More than half
OF all polio comes between the
ages of one and Is years. Pub
lie health experts think that
children in this bracket should
be protected. But there have
been increasing numbers of
polio victims between is and
IL therefore the teen-agers
need to be protected too.
@ - How about adults?
A = Pregnant women are
especially susceptible to the
dangerous type of polio if they
are attacked. Therefore they
are included in all recon-
mendations for vaccine.
@ = And other grownupsP
A = DR.. Roy Feemster Of
the state Department of
Health says that every adult
who asks for vaccine when it
is in short supply deprives a
pre-School child of it. He ur-
ges that doctors and patients
let their conscience be their
guides. Most adults have ma
tural immunization from hav-
ing had unrecognized cases.
@ - Will there be enough?
A = Estimates vary. Park
Davis Company, making the
largest amount, said it ex-
pected to be producing 100000
immunizations a week by
Summer. Some say there will
be enough on hand by the end
Of the year to vaccinate the
57,000,000 considered in the
susceptible age brackets. But
this is an optimistic estimate.
Q = Should I hurry to get
1t for my child?
A It might be well to
ask your doctor soon, If the
child is not in a school pro-
gram. But polio does not be-
gin rising until July around
here. DR.. Salk has found that
protective antibodies begin
forming as early as seven days
after incubation. He has con-
cluded that the vaccine can
be given during an epidemic
and still may be protective.
Q = Will my child receive
the same vaccine as he would
have had in the test run last
year?
A - No. DR.. Salk said that
he had greatly improved the
since last year. Some
difficulties unexpectedly had
showed up when the records
were evaluated.
Q - Is there danger from
it?
A - No. DR.. Thomas Fran
els stressed in his monument
tai evaluation that the Salk
vaccine had proved 'incred-
IDLY" safe with only a handful
OF minor reactions.
9 : Can I be sure that nv
child will not contract polio
II he is vaccinated?
A - Not now. Even the
highest protection figures do
not suggest 100 percent as
surance of immunity. For
some groups the percent vas
around go percent. Most i'm
portant perhaps was that the
vaccine appears to be most
protective against the bulbar-
spinal type of polio. It is
this type that causes death
most often and the Gripping
which requires iron lungs. Al
ter $50 years, smallpox vac
cine in 95 percent sure; after
81 years diptheria immuniza-
ton is pretty completely es-
tablished. It will take time
and work to improve the vac
cine before polio immunization
can be completely assured.
Q - How long will the
protection last?
A - Nobody knows yet. DR..
