2450 MILES IN 201 DAYS
Polio Victim Reaches N.Y.
After Long Wheelchair Trip
New York, Sept. 22 OJ.B A half-paralyzed New Mexico polio
victim, his powerful shoulders swinging rhythmically, rolled Into
New York Tuesday ln the wheelchair in which he had pushed
himself 2450 miles in 201 days.
William C. Lebow, 43, a Clovis, N. M., hotel clerk, said he "just
took off down the highway"-
from his home March 4 and
pushed himself to New York en
tirely with arm power to prove
to other polio victims that "you,
too, can get around in a wheel
chair."
Lebow, stricken with polio at
the age of 8 and confined to
wheelchair since, hopes his trip
will boost funds for the National
Foundation for Infantile Paral

than 20 miles a day, going about

when driving rainstorms caught
him in the middle of the high
way in his unprotected wheel
chair he accepted rides from
passing motorists.
"But I went back both times
and made up the distance once
it was better than four miles and
once 18 blocks. Most of the time
when it rained, I just jut on my
slicker and kept on rolling."
Lebow said the hills gave him
lot of trouble.
"On the way up I just pulled
my hat down further and threw
my back into it. On the way
down, though, that little buggy
really began to roll. I had to
hang onto the wheels to slow
her down."
Lebow's face lighted up when
he spoke of the people he'd met
across the country.
'Man, that sure is the way to
get acquainted with people," he
said: "Some motorists used to
stop on the road and ask me who
I was and when I told 'em they'd
give me their telephone num
ber and tell me to be sure and
call 'em when I went through
their town."
Lebow said his 17-year-old
daughter Lucille, didn't want
