IN THE AIR FORCE
by Elaine TOUnsend DickersOn

Dawn, our 9th grader, left
with several Of her friends and
hated to leave her "Pierre" be-
hind. That poodle has been with
US only four months, but he
certainly is a great Joy in
Dawn's life. And, let me tell
you, Dawn took eight dollars
with her this morning per
written instructions from her
intermediate school bulletin.
That's the amount Of money par
ents have to pay to rent books
for the year here in Virginia.
Lynne hasn't received nottfica-
tion of a sum yet, but it will
equal that amount and more
probably.
For Leslie her fee tomorrow
is 90c and this is for her weekly
reader and that Spanish book
I've written about to you.
Kind ndergarten here in the
churches varies in price, but
hers costs twenty-five dollars
per month. l know that is more
expensive than those at home,
but there are some here that
are as much as forty! So it not
only is the college age that is
expensive any more, is it?

JOB OPPORTUNITIES AHEAD

Babson Park, Mass. My ad-
vice to young men and women
entering college this fall is not
necessarily to major in what
ever seems good right now.
They should consider, instead,
what is likely to look good sew
eral years from now after
they get out Of school.
SUCCESSFUL WORKERS
LOOK AHEAD
The difference between the
college graduate who just holds
down job and the one who gets
promoted on job Is that the
succ es Sful climber knows
enough to look ahead. For ex-
ample, the young man or woman
who Is a careful career planner
wants to know first where the
road he hopes to take is head
ing. Better this than to accept
what looks like a good job now
and be regretful later on. MY
father told me long ago, and
have told my grandchildren the
same thing: The first step in
planning a career is to appraise
your own interests, values,
goals, personality, and abilities.
You've got to like the job you're
doing, too.
It is a sad and much too COM
mon sight to see a fellow butt
his head against a wall trying
to compete in a position for
which he lacks both the proper
personality and the basic apti-
tude. II you want to be a sue
cess, develop your assets and
do work for which you are fitted
and which makes you happy.
These steps, I feel, are essen
tial, but they do not go far
enough. All job hunters should

Common Cold Major Cause OF Absences

The common cold continues to

student is absent from school, ac-
cording to a study by Schering
Corporation, a leading phar-

Using statistics from the Ma

ranks 4th in days attended per
pupil. The best attendance record
for the 1962-63 school year was
set by the state of Washington
with an average Of 1o.5 days
missed. Utah was second with
11.2 The national average OF
school absences was 1879.

To make things all hunky -dory down

The first onslaught of colds

factor to this, according to re-

Of colds like other virus-caused
infections is accelerated by the
mixing of populations. In fixed
stable groups which are not ex-
posed to strangers, cold-like in
fections tend to die out, and do
not reappear until there Is con-
tact outside the group.
The best defense against the
common cold is prevention.
Warm clothing should be worn,
and good diets planned. When
ever possible avoid contact with

considered.
WHERE OUR ECONOMY
Is GOING
Our population right now is
close to 100, 900, 900, and further
definite gains lie ahead. More
than 7O,000,o0o are gainfully
employed. Our gross national
product has climbed to $3.50 bill
lion, and still further advances
are in store over the years
ahead. With a shorter working
week and more efficient produc-
tion, our people should receive
in wages, interest, and other
income, about $3.50 billion by
the time this years college en-
trants graduate in 1867.
Spendable income should grow
greater in the coming period,
and there should certainly be a
continued expansion in con-
sumer spending as a result.
This will open ever broader op-
portunities for those going into
advertising and the selling Of
new products. My forecast as
sumes, Of course, that the in
ternational situation will not
grow worse and that there will
be a generally favorable eco
nomic climate so that business
can operate without serious dis
ruption.

News About Cancer

The cancer death rate of
young persons has not been af-
fected by an extraneous virus
which was contained in certain
early patches of polio vaccine
and which is now under investi-
cation as a possible cancer
causing agent, it was reported
today.
Simian virus 40 (SV4O) COM
monty occurs in rhesuS monkeys
and when rhesus monkey kidney
cultures were used in the pre-
paration of vaccine, the virus
was transmitted to the vaccine.
Since the discovery of SV4O in
vaccine, it has been carefully
excluded.
More recently, it has been
learned that SV4O can cause tu-
morS in certain newborn labora-
tory animals.
According to an article in the
current Journal Of the American
Medical Association, the largest
source Of potential human in
fectivity by SV40 was the killed
pOlioViruS vaccine.
To determine if any change had
occurred in the cancer NOR
tality rates following the intro
duction of this vaccine, a study
was made Of mortality rates for
l950-59, the years encompassing
the first mass Salk immuniza-
tion trials, Joseph F. Fraumeni
Jr., M. D., Fred Ederer, M. A.,
and Robert w. Miller, M. D.,
National Cancer Institute, Beth
esda, Md, reported.
"No effect of SV4O was found
on the cancer mortality Of per-
sons less than 25 years of age
under the conditions Of this
study" the researchers said.
The lack of an effect was not
surprising, they added. The dose
of SV40 in the killed polio vac
cine was probably low compared
with that required to produce
tumors in laboratory animals,
they said. Furthermore, they
said, the persons vaccinated
we're we'll beyond the newborn
period, which in animal expert
mentation has proven to be the
age of greatest susceptibility for
the cancer-producing effects of
| SV4O.
At the same time, the re-
searchers said, the study does
not contradict the evidence that
SV40 may be a cancer-causing
agent. A carcinogenic effect of
ISV40 would have gone undetect-
ed in this study if the latent
period was longer than four
years, If the relatively low dose
of SV40 in the vaccine was in
sufficient to induce cancer, or If
the vaccinees we're beyond the
age Of susceptibility, they said.
The analysis Of cancer NOR
tally rates was restricted to
younger age groups because most
of the participants in the early
years of the vaccination program
were children and young adults,
according to the report. Death
certificates for about so, cooper
sons under the age Of IS
who died Of cancer between 1850
and 1859 we're used for the
analysis of mortality by age
groups, the researchers said.
For purposes of the study, they
said, each state was classified
according to the estimated per
capita dose of SV40 contained
in the vaccine distributed to that
state. This allowed the states
to be divided into three groups,
those whose vaccine contained
a high level Of SV40, low level,
or none, they said. ThesG three
groups Of states then were COM
pared with respect to the NOR
tality of children who were
to 8 years of age in 1855, 7
to 9 in 1856, to 10 in 1857,
and so forth, they said.
