Caflvefrltaf Tomes Cascade Home Furnishings 125 No. 4th Ph. 8365 Cable Car Use Studied DONSMU1R The possibility of using discarded cable cars lor the proposed ski-lift on the slopes of Mount Bnnsta was discussed in San Francisco this week. G. R. Simpson, one of the orig inal ski-lift promoters and a lor mer Ounsmuir motel owner, was making inquiries about the auc tionlng of six obsolete cable cars m San Francisco In February. It is Simpson's belief that it would be possible to operate the cable cars on the mountain with a counter-balanced, wo-track rail way. Simpson s Inquiry about the cable cars touched off wide Interest in the bay city and there was some rumor of his representing a ski syndicate. This wac disclaimed by Simpson and also by Chapman Wentworth, chair-lift steering com. mlttee chairman, who described him as a one-man committee. Wentworth. too, said the cable car idea worth Investigating. A great deal of engineering data must be gathered before plans for the 7.000 foot chair lift can be blue printed. Wentworth explained, but a cable car lift from Panther Meadows to the 11.000 foot ridge above the natural ski bowl is with in the realm of possibility.

The annual March of Dimes campaign will open In Klamath County January 3 headed by Jay Kroksh. manager of Con solidated Freightways in Klamath Falls.) Public understanding of the sci entific plan back of the first na tionwide test of the Salk vaccine In 1954 was an essential first step. To achieve it. a flexible, com prehensive Information program was set up in every community by the National Foundation through Its 3,100 county chapters working with health, medical and school au thorities. The entire nation became the proving ground In educational preparedness. Parents, whose children would be the key figures in the scientific test ahead, as well as other in terested adults, were eager to learn the vaccine story. They met with their state and county health officers, school superintendents, doctors, teachers, nurses, represen tatives of the National Foundation. and other community service groups. Special educational and Infor mational materials were prepared and distributed by the National Foundation. Parental request forms, which had to be signed by parents before their eligible chil dren could participate, were In cluded with the registration sched ules and vaccination forms sent to state health officers. While this preparatory work pro ceeded at Informational levels, the Vaccine Advisory Committee was tackling the intricate problems of vaccine production. Pharmaceuti cal firms agreed to manufacture, without profit, adequate supplies of vaccine for the field trials. Tests were devised to make sure that the safety, purity and potency of this vaccine would follow the rigid specifications of Dr. Salk's formu la. The batches of vaccine were tested by the manufacturer's lab oratory, the Laboratory of Biolo gies Control of the National Insti tutes of Health and by the Vitus Research Laboratory of the uni versity of Pittsburgh. . .

Then telegrams and lui.g distance phone calls went out from Wash ington to state health officers. "Go-ahead" was the word. Go ahead if there were no polio out breaks or threat of rising Incidence hi the area. While the field trials were go ing on. the Poliomyelitis Vaccine Evaluation Center was being set up at the University of Michigan with a March of Dimes grant of J890.000. Tills center sorted and recorded data as it came In on the 1.830.000 children participating In this first study. The mass of detailed informa tion that had to be obtained and interpreted made it impossible to expect a verdict on the aalic vac cine before 1955. To avoid the pos sibility of the vaccine being ap proved early in 1955 and then hav ing vaccine supplies nonexistent, the foundation began intensive planning with state and federal authorities to avoid this lronlo chance. In the fall of 1054, the founda tion contracted to buy sufficient vaccine to insure spring Inocula tions for all children wtio had participated in the field trials but did not receive vaccine and to children in the first and second grades of the nation's public, pri vate and parochial schools. If the Salk vaccine was licensed, and if their ' parents requested It. The vaccine would be supplied to nil state health departments without charge. This planning kept the pharma ceutlcal firms tooled up for pro duction and enabled them to re tain their specialized personnel and facilities. The National Foundation faced the big Job of a national vaccina tion program In 1955 with a grant or nine million dollars committed to pay its cost. . Are you power tool minded?
