Flu Epidemic in Asian Countries Appears Dying Out Tokyo TP An influenza epi demic which afflicted millions of Asians, killing more than 2,000 of them in the last eight months, appears to be dying out in the Orient, medical author ities said Saturday. But they warned it could recur again late this year, pos sibly in a more severe form than the relatively mild virus that cut a swath from Red China and Japan to New Guinea and Indonesia. Cases of the disease cropped up in the United States and Eu rupe. but not in epidemic pro portions. Outbreak of Disease The World Health Organiza tion at Geneva, Switzerland, re ported among ships crews in London and Bristol, England. A few cases have been reported in Holland. Others have been re ported in Hawaii and San Fran cisco. The epidemic in the Far East apparently started last fall in China and Japan. By late Janu ary and early February, it had spread to the point where near ly 2.500 schools in Tokyo were closed or had some of their classes suspended. It was esti mated that 2.500.000 Japanese came down with the disease. The virus, characterized by running noses, backaches, head aches, sneezing and pain in its victims, skipped quickly through the Pacific area. Reports 2,300 Cases Formosa,. Hong Kong, Indo nesia, Thailand, Singapore Ma laya and the Philippines were hit. Dutch New Guinea Saturday reported 2,300 cases, all "very mild." The Philippines suffered the worst blow. There, health de partment official Dr. Jacinto Dizon recorded 919.057 cases, roughly four per cent of the population, during a five-week period ended June 15. The death toll also was high 2.249 deaths, mostly young children and elderly adults. A number of Americans came down with the flu. but again not Scientists Say Dud Won't Occur Again Las Vegas. Nev. flpi Three apparently nerveless scientists who disarmed a "dud" nuclear device shortly after it failed to explode at the Nevada test site, said Saturday that a detonation failure "will never happen again." The three clambered atop a 500-foot tower Friday and dis armed the device when a hitch in the firing mechanism halted a scheduled test. Robert Burton, 35, of the San dia Laboratory, Albuquerque, N.M., married and the father of two, was credited with the actual disarming. But the two otters, Forrest Sairbrother and Barney Rubin, both of the Livermore, Calii., laboratory, played impor tant parts in completing the job. Burton said he was "not par ticularly nervous" and that the chances were "about a million to one" that the device would have gone off unexpectedly. The three, who said they were filling their responsibility in the task, indicated that steps would be taken to insure positively all future detonations. "This will never happen again," Rubin said. He indicated that an electronic alarm system would be installed in future de tonation systems to warn of pow er failures such as the one which stopped Friday's blast. Two other scientists remained at the bottom of the tower while Burton, Rubin and Sairbrother went aloft. They were Walter Arnold, also of the Livermore laboratory, and Edward R. Tucker, of the firm of Edger ton, Germeshausen and Grier. am i wii im'W, i Al 7 I - ; w - -: ,...v ""jay ,-'--.--x.., LOOKING quite happy in this picture is Joanne Smith Bingham, whose "boy friend," Lord Patrick Beres ford is being seen frequently with E n g 1 a n d's Princess Martraret.
