National Debut For Debbie Sue
AS March of Dimes Poster Child

Debbie Sue Brown, a five
year-old winsome young
lady of Charleston, Wash,
who is annoyed because she
must wait a few years be-
fore marrying the boy next
door, was selected this week
as the 1862 New March of
Dimes Poster Child.
Debbie Sue won out over
hundreds of small children, af-
ficted with birth defects, ar
Thrills or poiio-health fields
embraced by the program of
The National Foundation
March of Dimes. The Poster
Child lives a life both exciting
and glamorous. If physical con-
dition permits, there usually
are visits to the White House,
to Senators, Governors and
other prominent persons as
well as radio and television ap-
pearances during the New
March of Dimes in January.
She will star in a January
TV special, "The Scene Steal
ers," and her picture will ap-
pear nationwide on thousands
of March of Dimes posters,
coin collectors, and mail ap-
peal envelopes.
Debbie Sue, high-spirited
and active today, although doc
tors once believed she wouldn't
survive the open spine with
which she was born, lives in a
valley of the Clearwater Noun
tains near the banks Of the
Snake River.
She is b~rown-eyed and
blonde, the daughter of Jack
c. Brown, a state highway sur
veyor, and Barbara Brown,
who have a younger daughter,
Carla, one year old.
Debbie Sues birth defect of
an open spine was not immedi-
ately apparent. But a few days
after birth her grandmother,
MRS. Fred Bening, a registered
nurse of nearby Orofino, Idaho,
recognized that a serious dis
order was present; and the
parents then drove 400 miles
at headlong pace to Seattle's
Children's Orthopedic Hospi-
tai. (The mother collapsed on
arrival and was herself hos
pitalized.)
At the hospital the parents
were told that Debbie Sues

Cree of Detroit tells the story
of the Russian Commissar OF
Education who went to a small
town in Siberia and asked the
local School Superintendent for

Hes got to be at least a year

Commissar. Ordinary clever

II think I've just the right
boy for you," said the Superin-

When Ivan was called from
his classroom, the Commissar
asked him, who are the three
greatest traitors in Russian his

Without a moments hesita-

Malinovsky and Khruschev."
The Commissar turned to
the School Superintendent in
amazement: "By God, you were
right. He's a year ahead of ev-
