ahead of someone with a greater
need. This sense of cooperation is
the very life blood of our free and
democratic land. It's what made
Salk vaccine possible.
But it's hard to wait even though
you know all the answers.
While you're waiting there is
something you can do. Polio isn't
the only disease we have conquered
with vaccine.
Smallpox and diphtheria were
once rampant in this land of ours.
Now you seldom hear of a case
Why? Because we have shots
against them. But these shots don't
last a lifetime. They need to be re-
peated from time to time.
Smallpox vaccination should be
done once in infancy and again
about seven years later. Are all
your youngsters properly protect
ed against smallpox?
Diphtheria shots usually are COM
bined with tetanus and whooping
cough and given in a series of
three shots in infancy. Then one
shot of all three should be given
every two years until the youngs-
ter is in his teens. Are your chill
dren up to date on these booster
shots?
If we become lax about these
tried and true immunizations an
epidemic of diphtheria or of small
pox could do more harm than an
epidemic of polio.
While you're waiting for your
Salk vaccine check up on your chill
dren'S other boosters.

Check On Booster
Shots For Kids
BY Dorothy v. WhippIe, M. D.

BY Dorothy v. Whippie, M. D.
Up, Newsfeatures
Every summer the fear of polio
has sent cold shivers down the
spine of almost every parent in the
land. Now we can relax-at least,
we can as soon as the supplies of
this precious new Salk vaccine are
sufficient for all our children to re-
ceive their shots.
Parents have responded to this
wonderful new milestone in the
fight of man against disease with
characteristic American enthusi-
aSm.
I don't know what the final fig
ures will show, but around Wash
ington at least 80 per cent of par
ents of first and second graders
signed the slips giving permission
to have their children given the
vaccine in the schools. This is a
wonderful tribute to the faith our
people have in science.
These free shots for first and
second graders are the gift of the
National Foundation of Infantile
Paralysis. The vaccine for all these
children takes just about all that is
available right now.
The parents of youngsters not II
the first or second grade must wai'

Since the vaccine takes time tC

age group is the youngsters be-

Social Outcast Ninth

Dukes Leo Hurt,
Will Be Out for

By JOSEPH B. KELLY

Laurel received the entry Of
Alfred q. yanderbilt's Social
Outcast for the 1866 Washing
ton, D. c., international race to-
day on q qualified basis. but has
lost one Of it's two other Amer
ican entries.
Dukes Lea. owned by the
Calumet Farm, broke down yes
terday after finishing fourth in
the Quaker City Handicap at
Garden State and, according to
Trainer H. A. Jimmy Jones
is through racing for this year.
Jones would not reveal the ma
ture and extent Of the injury to
the Calumet star.
The only other American en-.
try is Traffic Judge.
In accepting the invitation to
the international. Vanderbilt
asked that Social outcast be
considered an alternate for the
mile and q half grass classic after
originally informing the Ainert-
can Selection Board that the dis
tance-running Maryland bred
would compete.
However, Vanderbilt indicated
10 John Schapiro. president Of
the Laurel track. that il for some
reason Dukes Lea or Traffic
Judge were withdrawn, he would
give serious consideration TO rum
ming Social Outcast.
The injury to Dukes Lea prob
ably win bring Social Outcast to
Laurel's Classic November II.
In making his request for an
alternate role, Vanderbilt pointed
out that Social outcast il
scheduled TO start In Gar
den States $4,000 added
Trenton Handicap on November
5, Just six days before the Inter-
national and that he would re-
serve his final decision until after
that race.
Helping to complicate the
picture is the fact that Social
Cutcast also is nominated for
