Summertime To Bring Results Of Poison Ivy Vaccine Tests By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York (IP) This sum mer will tell the tale of whether science now knows enough to make the cool woods, the daisy - filled fields, and the picture s q u e country road sides safe for poison ivy sensitive p e o pie. Deios smith a wo appar ently perfected ways of giving people immunity to the hor rors inflicted by the most treacherous of vegetables, are being used on a truly mass scale for the first time. Both seek to rouse body chemical defenses, as the Salk vaccine provides defense against polio viruses. One way is to inject a little poison ivy into people with a needle. The other is to add a few drops of it to their morning orange juice. Used Over Years Both have ben tried over the years with indifferent suc cess, but neither was free from bugs which prevented it from working in many if not most persons sensitive to poi son ivy. The needle method has been made effective by Margaret Strauss, director of the allergy laboratory of the New York University Hospital. After 10 years of experimentation, she learned how to make a poison ivy vaccine that is stable, con fers more than a fleeting im munity, is free of "side ef fects," and can be injected into people painlessly. It has been available experi-1 mentally to selected physi cians. I hey tried it in more than 1,000 persons and found it effective in 93 per cent that is it either gave lasting immunity or clearly reduced the degree of sensitivity. Can Be Injected It now is a "prescription drug" called "Aqua Ivy," which any doctor can inject into any poison ivy addict. FREED Poet Ezra Pound, 72, who broadcast for Fas cist Italy during World War II, is shown as he left Fed eral District Court in Wash ington after a 12-year-old treason indictment against him was dismissed. He is now free to leave St. Eliza beths Hospital where he has been confined since 1946 as mentally incompetent to stand trial. Five weekly injections are re quired the first time it is used. The following summer, a "booster shot" may be enough. The hope is that after three summers, immunity will be permanent and no additional "shots" will be needed. The "by - mouth" method seems to have been made more generally effective in the Milderm Research Labora tories of Philadelphia. Scien tists there succeeded in mounting a stable poison ivy extract in all alcohol base. This extract has now been tried out on a large number of the poison ivy sensitives and found effective in many but again, not in all. For six weeks, they put five drops of it in their breakfast milk or orange juice daily. After that, they "spiked" the breakfast beverage three times a week throughout the poison ivy sea son. Dr. Elmer R. Gross of Wilmington, Del., has report ed the largest number of pa tients 455. He found it effective in 76.9 per cent. The extract is now a "prescription drug" called "Orval Ivy." Sfudebaker Corp. Eyes Failing Firm South Bend, Ind. (in - Studebaker - Packard stock holders met today to find out what the future holds for their failing auto firm and why their stock suddenly went up nearly 20 per cent Wednesday. Studebaker-Packard has lost $125 million in the last five years and sold off consider able of its valuable property. The stock has been languish ing at a lowly $3.50 per share until Wednesday when it spurted to $4.12V at the mar ket's close. N Brokers guessed that the stock spurt had something to do with S-P's small or econ omy car plans or with Curtiss Wright's option to buy five million shares of S-P stock at $5 per share.
