Polio ‘Needling’ Wednesday
DENNIS THE MENACE
Taylor County second-graders
are going to face that “needling”
again Wednesday in the second
round of the county-wide psito
vaccine trials
But doctors hope the 750 or so
lost cases will emerge unnettled
it will be the second “sensit-
zer” shot to be given in the coun-
ty. The first was last Wednes-
day, and the third, “booster” shot,
to to be given June 9.
The three shots are being given
on the same principal as those
given far typhoid fever, whooping
cough, and diphtheria.
These use the “memory factor,”
the tendency for body cells to
build up resistance to dead virus
which will create antibodies to
fight live virus.
The second and third shots were
proved vital in the gradual build
up of antibodies in tests given in
Allegheny County, Pa.
Make-Up Shots Friday
Dr. A. G. Arrant, medical di-
rector far the local trial, urged
parents to see that their second-
graders were on hand far the see-
ond sensitizer shot.
If they are unable to make the
Wednesday tests, make-up shots
will be given Friday.
The second vaccination series
will begin at 9 a. m. Wednesday
at all Abilene elementary Schools
and at Elmdate. Morkel, Ovate,
and Wylie schools.

Dad, don’t rush for the doctor
ovary time Junior’s temperature
zips above tho standard 98.6.
He may have nothing more than
a case of “bubble gum fever."
Worse yet, it may be a case
of ‘‘school fever,"’ once a atandard
joke among small fry, and new a
scientific fact.
The truth to, explains Dr. Fred

cian, lots of things may bring

the merger would be "the first
step in the destruction" of the
separate feeder sad trunk-line ser-
vice of air transportation which
CAB launched 10 years ago.
Texas and Oklahoma were
among the first states to get the
local service—or “feeder” flights.

proposed acquisition of Pioneer by
Continental offers any substantial
public benefits that warrant
“overruling the principles under-

Taylor addressed some 500 Okla-
. homa doctors yesterday at the
State Medical Assn, convention.
“Some child may be having
trouble getting along with his
teacher or playmates,” Dr. Taytor
explained. “This emotional upset
may cause his temperature to rise.
The psychiatrists refer to this as
school fever.”
Even chewing con make junior’s
temperature rise above the 98.6
mark. He said a perfectly normal
child may have a temperature of
100 or 101 degrees "just from ex-
ercise itself.”
The includes bubble gum
chewing.
— The thing to do. Dr. Taylor ad-
vised, to not to rear a child by
relying on the thermometer to tell
when danger is at band.
“Too often they feel the tem-
perature should be stuck at that
little red arrow. It is normal to
vary. A child may go for weeks
or months with an afternoon ele-
vation of temperature. Sure it is
up. But that’s the way you keep
warm—by exercise. Lat the child
rust 30 to 45 minutes and then take
his temperature.”

"We’re engaged, but we cannot
speak of marriage because neither
of us is yet free.”
