CLOSE to the vest best describes Coach
Kyle Wilson's comments Sunday on his most i'm.
portant match with Bladensburg this past Tuesday.
The lkeable Northwood mentor spoke slowly,
choosing his words carefully. He was under the
gun and he knew it. Bladensburg had been
most everybody's favorite to win the Bi.County
roundball title. Talk in Montgomery gave North
wood the best chance to stop the high and mighty
good shooting Mustangs
Kyle chose his words carefully but the gist
was this: Northwood with crack at BladenSburg
on the Silver Spring court would probably be
missing 6-foot3 rebounder, Kenny Laid, when
Goliath comes to call and Wilson is worried. Laid
had turned his ankle the previous Tuesday in prac-
tce and it was question of whether the injury
would come along fast enough for him to play
after just week On Saturday he couldn't run.
This column was printed before Tuesday
afternoons game when neither the outcome
of the game nor Ladds condition was known.
But Sunday night and Monday and Tuesday,
too, the pressure was Wilson. Not from
alumni, local businessmen, booster clubs or
any of the claptrap some misguided Oppon-
ents of athletics like to imagine always in
vades the sports scene, but the pressure of
competition, not unlike the competition that
invades almost every fiber of our normal life.
Il can see that the exercise is good for the
boys, an architect said to of our better coun-
ty coaches last summer, 'but why do you have
to win? Couldn't these games be ended without
winning or losing?"
why have to win for the same reason
you have to design better building than the
next fellow or put in a better days work." the
coach replied. why man, it's competition and
it doesn't matter whether it's in sports or bust
ness or anything else, it's all the same"
The architect got the message and had to
agree if you looked at it that way, winning was
pretty important Anyone who doesn't under
stand hasn't read the papers about the Russian
students dancing in the streets of Miscow when
the Lunik was announced. Competition makes

This is one Of the Brave

How It's Reasoned
The reasoning seems to &c
this way:
Alcoholism has recently beer
touted widely as a disease, nc
more reprehensible in Itself
than catarrh, polio or chicken

sense Of social responsibility
would fire a worker who lost

on those who think that 1t may

that sort Of compromise"
while there may be dissent

Butler said, there will be no
wavering from the course of
stating clearly to all sections of
the Nation what the national
policies of our party are and
will be.
Under no circumstances will
We, or can we, undertake to

Of human rights stays in"
In his speech Mr.. Butler also:
/. Called on President Eisen-
hover to indorse as morally
right the Supreme Court deci-
sion against racial segregation
in the schools,
2. Appealed for Mr.. Eisen-
howere to call leaders of both
races into conference to dis
cuss how the courts decision
can be carried out on a grad
ual yet firm basis.
3. Asked Congress to imple-
ment the court decision by
passing the Douglas bill provid-
ing. among other things, for
authority for the Attorney Gen.
eral to file injunction suits to
protect civil rights generally
and to enforce school integra-
ton.
4. Called on both parties to

seriously our promises. Too

pledges have not led to political

Temperature tanned viruseS
we're suggested today as a pos
sible new approach to devel-
oping vaccines against uncon-
quered viral diseases.
Experiments have shown that
some strains of virus can be
developed to grow best at
higher temperatures and others
at lower readings, DR.. Albert
B. Sabin reported. Their po-
tency can be made to vary
accordingly, he added.
DR.. Sabin, a nationally known
researcher at the University of
Cincinnati College of Medicine,
prepared his report for the an
nual meeting Of the National
Academy Of Sciences.
Improved Strains Seen
/ He said the findings might
open the way to such Things as:
/. Developing improve d
strains Of virus for use in the
recently developed polio vac
cines of the Give virus" type.
A live virus vaccine contains
viruses that have not been
chemically killed. Instead, they
have been so weakened that
they are unable to cause in
lection. They retain enough
power, however, to excite the
creation OF antibodies, which
can give a person immunity to
a disease.
2. Developing weaker strains
Of the viruses responsible for a
variety of human and animal
diseases against which there are
no vaccineS at present. The
idea would be to use the tanned
vifuses in vaccines.

developers Of the still con-
troversial Give virus" vaccines

Temperature Held Key
To Control of Viruses,

IIic Health Service for extensive
field-testing in this country
He said the new findings
about the genetics of polio
viruses were an outgrowth OF
the research that produced the
viruses now employed in such
live virus" vaccines.
Fever Temperatures Used
He gave these further details:
/. 1t was found that the
capacity of polio viruses to re-
produce themselves sufficiently
in the nervous system OF
monkeys to produce paralysis
was related to their capacity
to reproduce themselves at
fever" temperatures in test
tube tissue cultures. That is,
those that could multiply ex-
tensively at such fever" tenn
peratures were highly virulent,
while those that multiplied
poorly or not at all were much
less virulent or completely non-
virulent.
2. In one experiment it was
found possible to change a
punches, weak-sister strain OF
polio virus into one that para
lyzed monkeys-simply by cul-
tivating the germ step by step
at varying temperatures until
it grew very well at LOG degrees
Fahrenheit.
3. In contrast, a virus strain
capable of causing paralysis
was converted to a powerless,
sissified virus merely by grow
ing it at successfully lower tenn
peratures until it reproduced
we'll at rs degrees and only
partly at 81 degrees.
DR.. Sabin said the new find
ings had immediate applicable
ity as a test-tube means for
estimating the virulence of diff
ferent strains of polio virus
without having to inoculate
monkeys.
