nation stuck In his buttonhole,
After the meeting broke up,
DR.. Salk went into an Office with
DR.. Scheele and they were gone
for some time. There were ru-
mors the two were not getting
along.
"Everything's fine" DR.. Salk
said to reporters. apparently re-
ferring to the vaccine situation.
as he scurried past to the safety
of a big, black car, which moved
away with Mr.. O'Connor and
other foundation officials.
Cases Climbed to Sc
Ano at the meeting were the
men who, perhaps playing a
hunch or a funny feeling, had
decided to recall the Cutter
vaccine which led to a halt the
whole program. They had done
this on the strength of six cases.
And after they had done it. the
cases climbed to Sc directly re-
lated to the Cutter product. Was
it still a hunch? Nobody was
saying yesterday, except for DR..
Scheele's careful phrase: Strong
preSumptive evidence"
But that pointed up the situa-
ton. Exhaustive laboratory tests
have yet to spot, apparently. the
one thing-if any-that Cutter
did that the other manufactur-
ers did not do as the vaccine
went into mass production.
What scientists had relied on
mainly to render their verdict of
safe was the incidence of polio
cases in humans who had re-
ceived the vaccine.
AS a scientist, polio expert
said last night:
When you've done everything
you possibly can for safety, the
chips are down when the product
moves from the laboratory and
animal testing into the actual
injection of the human"
Expert Is Confident
He was confident that vaccine
now undergoing manufacture
with possible changes-would
have little chance of causing
polio and at the same time re-
tain its effectiveness.
Whether new and even more
rigid safety tests are to be ap-
piled by all manufacturers to
their vaccine patches apparently
is to be the subject of more talks
by DIR. Scheele and his advisers
in the next few days.
While the program was still
stalled. pending release of addi-
tional vaccine patches, yester-
days meeting at least seemed
to remove some of the confusion
and, more Importantly, the
doubts about vaccine already
injected.

thority followed a sound, con-

the Cutter vaccine was unusual.
He replied that it was a very
high incidence in the particular
period of time. But he recalled
that somewhat similar condi-
tions developed when vaccines
for smallpox and yellow fever
were first distributed. He said
many deaths. occurred at that
time.

Col. AshbTidge, honored BY The
historian post because Of his keer
interest in young people and the
perpetuatiOn Of the aims of the as
sOciatiOn, was one Of nine men
who set up the goals, principles
and purposes Of the group on Ocso-
Der 5, 194S, in a meeting on the
Delaware campus. The former Del
aware guidance director is ideally
suited to the position since he has
been in close contact with the
group since that date.
Seven months after the initial
gathering at Newark, the MAPOA
became a bOnafide organization,
with the adoption Of a cOnstitu-
ton and bylaws and the election
of officers during a meeting at
Franklin and Marshall College. The
group has grown rapidly and now
includes members Of forty colleges
and 1913 Of the nations leading cor
pOratiOns.
One Of the aims of the Organiza-
tion is to provide opportunities for
the prospective employer and en-
plOyee to get together. The Middle
Atlantic group also offers means
for students to gain information
and experience about vocational OBJ
jectiyes, types of jobs available,
correct procedures in interviews
md techniques in writing letters
of application and acceptance.
Through its work with college
.rained personnel, the members of

to industry, strive to integrate the
service into the overall
program OF the institutions and
provide continuing service to
alumni so that they may be assist
ed with their employment prob
