America as Polio Not March of Chairman The people of Jackson county apparently are of the erroneous belief that the threat of polio has been licked, Jerry Gastin- eau, county March of Dimes chairman, said today. Gastineau said he is basing his statement on the fact that contributions to the fund-raising campaign are much slower than at the same time in previous years. "With development of the Salk vaccine, apathy is probably natural reaction," Gastineau said. "However, many thousands of people in the country, and many in our own county, have not yet received the vaccine. And there is approximately 80, 000 old cases of polio for which the March of Dimes is still obli gated to provide care, the chair man said. Still Much To Be Done There is still much to be done in the field of research and edu cation before the country can be free of the threat of polio, he pointed out. Gastineau said appeals for ad vance gifts from businesses and industry so far has brought con siderably less than last year and mailing cards, which were sent out early this week, are coming in slowly. A big crowd is expected at the Bucket of Bucks dance at Rogue Valley ball room tonight when two bands will provide music, a floor show will be of fered and prizes will be given. All proceeds go to the March of Dimes. Saturday will be Blue Crutch day in Medford and other down town events-are planned for that day.
