SCIENCE AT WORK By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York (U.R) A picture of iary tuberculous and tuberculous the well-doctored infant of the future begins to form when you consider that Dr. Jonas E. Salk thinks all babies should be vac cinated against polio before they are one year old and three ex perts are urging routine tuber culin tests of all babies. ine well-doctored baby now is immunized against diphtheria during the first weeks of life and often against whooping cough, lockjaw, and several other infectious diseases. The definite trend is to fit him with the heaviest possible armor of antibodies at the earliest prac tical moment. He comes into life with some antibodies acquired from his mother. If she has a lot against a vari ety of diseases, so does he but these maternal antibodies begin to disappear from his blood chemistry quite soon. Nature re quires every person to get his own antibodies the personal ones are the only lasting kind. intant T.B. Infection Speaking ideally, Dr. Salk told this writer that all women of child-bearing age should be vac cinated against polio to make sure they have a full compe ment of antibodies against all three polio viruses to pass along to their off-spring. Then the babies would be vaccinated be fore their maternally acquired polio antibodies began to fade away. The views of the three tuber culosis specialists regarding the well-doctored baby were rather startling to the layman since they were based on the premise that primary infection with the tuberculosis bacteria is not rare among infants, but baby doctors generally don't find out, as a matter of unvarying routine, whether infection is or isn't there. Tuberculin tests are simple and sure and every baby should be tested wrote Drs. Maryethel Meyer, Gardner Middlebrook and Arthur Robinson of the Na tional Jewish Hospital and the University of Colorado's school of medicine (Denver) in the Journal of Pediatrics. Check Baby's Handlers It should be kept in mind that primary tuberculosis is not neces sarily dangerous for the immedi ate future, but it can readily go into progressive tuberculosis or into even more malignant forms specially in babies. Indeed, "when progressive primary tu berculosis does occur in infancy, it tends to take the form of the two most malignant types mil- Treed Pigeon Causes Trouble in Milwaukee Milwaukee (U.R) A treed pigeon caused a lot of trouble in Milwaukee recently by getting itself entangled in a string on a utility cable high above the street. Police Sgt. Harvey Daniels was the first to notice the pigeon, and he called the Humane So ciety immediately. But the so ciety's ladder would not reach the high cable. . Firemen were called, and they raised a 30-foot ladder to reach the bird. Fireman Raymond War da cut the string and brought the piseon down to humane officer Edwin Thiel, who untangled the string, and let the bird go. meningitis," they said. Once discovered, the primary infection now is readily treat able, usually with a course of pills made of the comparately new anti-TB miracle drugs, and the baby never knows anything was ever wrong. Thus, a poten. tial disaster of the future is detected while it is a-borning and snuffed out. If the doctor gets a positive tuberculin test from an infant, he must then check up on the people who have been handling the baby because one of them gave him the TB bog. . "In this regard, stress should be placed on the elderly person, particularly grandparents, as a source of infection," the doctors said. "These individuals com monly control tuberculosis dis eases well, and no one may suspect that grandfather's 'cig aret cough,' is in reality tuber culosis, and that every time he handles his precious grandchild he sprays her with tubercle bacilli." . . Economy Changes Colors for School Kent, O. (U.R) Time was when Kent State university had school colors of orange and black. Today's color scheme is blue and gold. The big change came about as a result of an economy-minded administration and a football uniform washing. Kent State's first football outfits were, like the school colors, orange and black. After their first washing the uniform colors faded into a mellow blue and gold. The economy-minded front of fice decided blue and gold was just as good a color scheme as orange and black.

Officials of Nevada's Kerak Temple, in charge of arrange ments, said more than 8000 Shriners and their wives would attend the convention. The convention, largest in the city's history, has taxed guest fa cilities to the limit and accom modations have been reserved in Carson City, 30 miles south, and Education Board Congratulated Portland (U.R) Chancellor John R. Richards congratulated the Board of Higher Education yesterday in a report on build ings that carried with it a warn ing of hazards to come. The peak of a 59,000,000 con struction program has been reached by the state's colleges and university. The program is the biggest in the history of the institutions, both in terms of money and buildings. The chancellor said that the huge program was made possible by the last Legislature lifting the bonding ceiling. With the sole exception of about 54,000,000 from state ap propriations, the rest was bor rowed and used to build self liquidating projects, repayable from student fees and other resources. . Dr. Richards said that the bond ceiling has now been reached.

Atomic Fallout" ,: In New York Told ' Washington (U.R) A com mittee of top scientists has re ported that a heavy load of ra dioactive dust was dumped on Troy and Albany, N.Y., in 1953 because of a freak atomic fall out. ' j They said an atomic cloud blowing across the nation from the Nevada testing grounds sud denly precipitated its radioactive burden on the two cities in the form of rain. The scientists mentioned the 1 incident in a lengthy report on I a year-long study of the "geolo- j gical . effects of atomic radia-; tion." The study was sponsor- ( ed by the National Academy of Sciences. The experts said the freak i fallout over New York subject-1 ed the citizens of Troy and Al-! bany to one-tenth of a roentgen ! of radiation. This was 1 per cent ' of the 10 roentgens which the ! group recommended as a max- j imum for the general population. The scientists explained that the fallout occurred because of a rare combination of circum stances. The time, place and wea ther all conspired to burst the cloud over the two cities and drop the radioactive particles in rain.

He also said that although the growth of scientific knowledge i and its application to industry : has been constant during the last j 75 years, it has not revolutionized ' the size of all industrial firms. neaa ana ue t-iassmea Ads ...
