Flu Vaccination Urged for Aged: Chronically III Washington - (Science Serv ice) - Protection from influ enza for the aged and chron ically ill through immediate vaccination is urged by the Public Health Service Ad visory Committee on Influen za Research. Although the National Of fice of Vital Statistics has not yet reported an influenza out break this year, Asian flu ac counted for some 86,000 ex cess deaths in three epidemic ., waves in 1957-1098 and again In the early winter months of . I960. Almost 60,000 excess deaths were recorded In the six-month period from Octo ber to March, 1957-1958. The 1960 epidemic caused an ex cess of over 26,000 deaths. May Threaten Lives . Routine immunization Is recommended for all persons 65 years of age or older, for pregnant women, for patients of all ages who suffer from heart, lung, kidney or me tabolic disorders. The Public Health Service gays that although influenza may not be more likely to at tack persons In these groups than others, it is more likely to threaten their lives. Bac terial complications are more frequent in patients with car diovascular, kidney and pul monary disease, and Influenza alone puts severe stress on heart and lung functions. The adult dosage' recom mended by PHS of the com mercial influenza vac cine, which is a killed virus prepar ation made up of different strains, is one cubic centi meter injected under the skin on two occasions two or three months apart. Early Vaccination Since the typical flu "sea son" begins In November, ex tending through February or March, the Public Heal'11 Service advises early vacci nation. Each fall prior to Nov. 1, booster shots should be' given. There is only one word of warning on the allergy re actions to be expected. The ' vaccine is produced in eggs, so the Advisory Committee A has advised against vaccina tion for persons unable to eat eggs or chicken because of food allergy, or for those who have had a definite allergic reaction on previous Inocula tion of an egg vaccine. Plastic Chamber Found To Reduce Germ Infection San Francisco (Science Service) A germ-free plastic chamber, called- "Isolator," has proved effective in re ducing the number of wound infections that occur in op erations. Surgeons from Walter Reed Army Medical Center have performed surgery on ani mals placed in the Isolator In i,rh a wiv that the wound and underlying tissues are completely sealed off from the surgical environment. TTvpn the nurffeon and the Da tient are isolated by this new method. Contains Instruments Long-sleeved plastic gloves enable the surgeon to reach into the isolator, which also "., contains both instruments and supplies, The isolator may be steri lized with ethylene oxide or by steam under pressure, "de pending upon the type of nineilr nspri." the Walter Reed team reported to the Clinical Congress of the American College of Sur goons meeting here. Another feature of 's. chamber is that it is nnsnhle. the dls- The surseon's incision Is made through the flexible plastic, glued firmly to tne akin. All germs are thereby rxcluded since only the wound and underlying tissues come into contact wtin tne isolator's Interior sterile en vlronment. Ready for Trial Dr. Stanley M. Levcnson P. C.

' American College Campus in France Tours, Franee-WPD-Callfop. nia's Stanford University op. ened the first American col lege campus in France with 80 students who will realize an ambition "to travel and study abroad." Dr. J. E. Wallace Sterling, president of the Palo Alto, Calif., university, said the op portunity for a foreign so journ into learning "has long been a part ... of liberal education." "Stanford's overseas study program is, therefore, In ac cord with a noble tradition," Sterling said in an address at tho opening ceremonies. The students, selected from 600 prospective American stu dents who applied for the program, joined some 200 other Stanford undergradu ates who will spend six . months of study on similar campuses In Stuttgart, Ger many, and Florence, Italy. . The emphasis in their educa tion here will be on culture and languages. Will Remove Prejudice Sterling was accompanied by U.S. Ambassador Emory Houghton on the ceremonial dias. Houghton told the stu dents that "these personal contacts will contribute to re moving the prejudices which are too often found on the two sides of the Atlantic. . ," He also said it would aid lit . gradually increasing under. standing between Frenchmen and American. The students who will study ' here, both men and women, arrived two weeks ago. They , are housed in modern, newly ' built buildings which serve as dormatorles and quarters. Specifically, they will take , courses in 18th Century Euro- , pean thought, Franco-Amer- ; lean history, politics and French. A French newsman asked it i Dr. Sterling had planned to institute a course in wine tasting, this being one of the major centers of the French wine industry. "We ll have no wine tao. ully," Sterling said. "The stu-, dents will be left to thtl own resources."

Gates Jr. to stop the "bickering and rival. ries among the military de partments" and to get going on the anti-missile missile pro ; gram. "Our cities," Anfuso tela ; in a letter to Gates," are to., day vulnerable to an inter i continental ballistic missile;'' attack.", Glo i He said that judging from ' Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's "antics in the United Nations I have come to . the conclusion we are dealing ' with a mad man. . Must Have Defense "Missiles in his possession are dangerous," Anfuso said. "and could be used against ; us any time it suits his mood, s We must have the necessary defense against them-and we ' must have it soon," he said. .' Anfuso asked Gates for a complete report on the Nike., Zeus' current status, the reay sons, for the Air Force'i op.?- . . position to the weapon and an . "immediate investigation os. departmental rivalries." j In a second development, Chairman Overton Brooks of the House Space committee said he was concerned over .; reports that both the defense Department and the National Aeronautics and Space Ad .. ministration have proposed ; and "quite similar ' plans to uxe man into space. ... room for The Louisiana Democrat ; said the Space committee finish would keep a close watch on , these programs to insure that there is no unnecessary dupU cation." .
