Sharp Drop in Polio

ANNAPOLIS. Oct. 6 (P).-An
Anne Arundel County health Of
fetal said today the peak of the
polio season has passed, leaving
the county with the fewest cases
in years.
DR.. j. Howard Beard said only
three cases were reported this
summer as compared to 18 last
year. The county had averaged
10 to II cases a season before
this year, he said.
The health officer attributed
the drop to use of the Salk anti
polio vaccine and to the cyclical
nature of the disease.
