Sharp Jump Noled
In Polio Cases
During Last Week
Washington (U.PJ The Pub
He Health Service today report
ed a tharp jump in polio cajes
last week. But it said the in
crease was strictly seasonal.
There ware 112 cases last
week compared to 85 the week
before. But last week's total was
considerably less than the 240
cases reported in the comparable
week of 1955.
So far this year, there have
been 1744 cases compared to
228S for the same period last
year. There have been 935 par
alytic cases this year and 954
for the same period of 1955. This
is the first time this year that
the paralytic rate has fallen be
hind last year. The ' paralytic
cases last week were 53 com
pared to 85 in the comparable
week of 1955.
The Health Service released
. statistics on the incidence of
polio so far this year in various
age groups in Florida, Louisiana
and Washington.
These showed less polio
among the Salk vaccinated age
groups in Florida and Louisiana
but not Washington. However,
the Health Service, emphasized
that "since the vaccination status
of the reported cases was not
slated, no conclusions can be
drawn with respect to the ef
ficacy of vaccination in the var
ious age groups."

' i2lasi ' -
their feelings when Nixon ad
dressed the convention this
morning. Undersecretary of
Commerce Waiter Williams got
a big hand Thursday with a
speech which plugged for the
vice-president.
There has been a lot of behind-the-scenes
infighting in re
cent months involving Nixon's
friends and spokesmen of the
citizens organization. Nixon's
friends went all-out for an en
dorsement of their man and a
change, in the organization's
name to make it read: Citizens
for Eisenhower and Nixon.
Will No Budge
The organization would not
budge and will not, although
some of its top people would
welcome an immediate Nixon
endorsement.
Organization Republicans gen
erally would welcome an imme
diate endorsement. Typical of
that sentiment was last week's
action by the Senate Republican
campaign committee urging a
unification of all campaign ef
forts in behalf of the Eisenhow
er administration. The commit
tee significantly added: "Such
unified efforts should include,
in campaign activities generally,
the coupling of the names of
President Eisenhower and Vice
President Nixon and the urging
of voters to support the entire
Republican ticket."
That will not budge the citi
zens' group, either. Their plan
now is to ignore Nixon until he
is forced upon their attention by
the Republican national conven
tion next August in San Fran
cisco. Only then, if he is re-nominated,
will the names of the
two men be linked. The citizens
organization's top people have
heard from several Republican
members of Congress that a citi
zens for Eisenhower, but not for
Nixon, campaign would be un
welcome in some important
areas if Nixon again were on the
ticket.
Another Tough Problem
Mr. Eisenhower handed the
citizens group another problem

Its Vigor
almost as difficult for them as
that raised by the apparent in
evitability of renominatiorl. The
President told the delegates
their organization should fight
not only for his reelection but
for the election next November
of a Republican Congress.
The citizens hope to make a
lot of political medicine in
southern states this year as they
did in 1954. How to plug for a
Republican Congress in the
south without losing some Dem
ocratic voters who might sup
port Mr. Eisenhower again is
something for the citizens or
ganization to ponder.
They might solve that one by
an application of practical poli
tics in which the organization
could work for Republican con
gressional candidates where it
was wise to do so and ignore
congressional contests in haz
ardous areas.
Four Students Die
As Car Misses Curve
Warm Springs, N. M. (U.PJ
Four students from Brigham
Young university at Provo, Utah,
en route to their homes in
Georgia were killed today, and
one was seriously injured, when
their automobile left the road
one mile south of here.
The dead were tentatively
identified as Virgil Vincent
Geiner, 19, Quitman. Ga.; the
driver; Gwendolyn Odem, 18,
Udowici, Ga., Yvonne Lott, 18,
Fitzgerald, Ga.. and Albert L.
Middlebrooks, 18, Quitman, Ga.
The injured youth was identi
fied as James Randall Brannen,
24. Jacksonville, Fla.
The car failed to negotiate a
dangerous curve' in the moun
tainous country and plunged off
the road. Authorities said the
curve was marked for 35 MPH,
but the car tried to make it at
high speed.
The dead and the injured were
taken to Albuquerque.

Hearing Aid Talks
Like Jet-Age Pilot
Honolulu (U.PJ Herbert
Drechsler wants his colleagues
at the U.S. Weather Bureau sta
tion at Honolulu Airport to
understand that he did not talk
like a jet-age pilot. His hearing
aid did.
It did not particularly disturb
47-year-old Drechser when his
battery-operated ear piece began
to spout without warning such
Air Force jargon as: "Tower to
Yellow Dog make approach
runway four left,"or "Tower to
Red Dog. You're 6',i miles out.
You should be in in two minutes.
You should be at 600 feet."
What Drechsler found a bit
disconcerting was the looks of
astonishment he got from fellow
workers who often could clearly
hear his hearing aid "talking"
from a distance of several chairs
away. Then, they were wont to
interrupt with him, "What did
you say, Herb?" It didn't help
matters much when he had to
reply, "I didn't say anything; sit
was my hearing aid."
One got the impression that
Drechsler rather enjoyed listen
ing in on the Air Force fre
quency sometimes used by jet
pilots and the control tower at
Hickam Air Force Base a few
hundred yards away.
Investigation revealed that the
cause of it all was a newly in
stalled air force radio frequency
sometimes used for communica
tions to the tower by jet planes.
This frequency because of its
classified call letters is known
in Civil Areonautics Authority
circles as the "Jerk." For some
reason probably a high resistor
grid lead Drechsler's hearing
aid was sensitive to reception of
the frequency, and the wiring in
the piece probably acted as a re
ceiving antenna for the signal
from the Air Force transmitter
nearby.
Drechsler accidentally dropped
his hearing aid one day and sent
it back to the States for repairs.
He now uses a substitute of a
different manufacture" that picks
up only normal room conversa
tion and noise, He wonders jf his
old one will still pick up the
tower when it gets back.
