BARRY SULLIVAN jSth :5 PETER GRAVES fsS t Long Meets Take Toll Of Board Two Members of the board of School District 2, the high school district found Tuesday evening that the late hours they have been keeping in this budget-making season were beginning to tell. On Monday night, when the reg ular board meeting lasted from 7:30 p.m. to 12:45 a.m., members decided to continue discussion of curriculum and staff problems for HI59-60 until Tuesday night, when they also tentatively planned to discuss further the recent acci dental shooting at the high school. However, when Tuesday night rolled around, the joint budget committees' 'closed session of sal ary-discussion with the school teachers' representatives lasted from 7:30 to 10:15. p.m. Once they were free from this meeting, the high school board members start ed one of their own, but they lim ited themselves to unanimously authorizing the emergency pur chase of a new engine for a 60 passenger school bus which had been laid up for several days. Cost of the engine, to be purchased from Juckeland Motors, was quot ed at $2,750, installed. Alter this, the board decided that it had "had enough" for the eve ning, and, faced with the prospect of yet another District 2 budget committee session Wednesday night, went home at 10:30. The closed discussion with the school teachers had been granted by the joint committees with the understanding that no decisions would be made at that time, and no action of any kind was taken, officials declared. School District 1, the elemen tary district, has scheduled budget committee meeting for Thursday, and there will be an other joint meeting of the two budget committees Friday. All budget and school board meetings begin at 7:30 p.m. at the high school, unless otherwise indicated. rot continue that way. Details of the note were not made public.

By RAY SHAW AP Xewsfeaturei Writer Reversing a general downward trend which started with the in troduction of Salk vaccine in 1954. polio cases increased in 1958. During tne year d.ihi persons contacted the crippling, sometimes fatal disease 105 more than in 1957. While this total increase was relatively small, the number of paralytic cases lumped Irom 2,17b to 3.112, a 41 per cent gain. Last vear. however, still brought onlv one-tenth the number of cases as the peak pre-Salk year ol 1952 which had nearly 60.000 There were 40,000 cases in 1954 and 30,000 in 1955 Why did 1958 show an increase fc, when Salk vaccine is available at low cost to all who want it? Public apathy, health experts agree. Only one half of our population under 40 years of age those most likely to contact the disease have been completely vaccinated with Salk. This leaves about 50 million persons as inviting targets lor polio. Not until these 50 million are vaccinated can paralytic polio be wiped out, says Dr. Alexander Langmuir, U.S. Public Health Service official at Atlanta, Geor gia. "With proper organization and persistent effort, this can be achieved." Most distressing is the fact Jhat a third of the entire population un der 5 years of age has had no vaccine at all. Last year, 52 per cent of those afflicted with para lytic polio were in this age group. The year's worst polio outbreak was in Detroit, where it reached the epidemic stage with more than 600 persons stricken. Sixteen states had more cases in 1958 than 1957; 26 and the Dis trict of Columbia had fewer cases and seven states, including Alaska, had no change. The fight against polio appears to be one that will occupy re searchers, physicians and health agencies for some time to come. Here are steps that probably will be taken: 1. Educate the unvaccinated io the need for Salk shots. 2. Propose a fourth Salk vaccine shot for those who already have had the customary three. 3. ImprovTs the potency of com mercially produced vaccine. Dr. Gunnar Gundcrsen, presi dent of the American Medical Association, has urged the nation's physicians to tind ways to vac-1 cinate the uninformed, the indigent and complacent" against polio paralysis. This means no charge for the vaccine in cases where persons cannot pay. If Dr. Gundersen's request Is followed, physicians will spark local vaccination campaigns. Such campaigns proved a suc cess. Dr. Gundersen says, in Pitts burgh, Miami, Dallas, San Diego, Seattle. Norfolk. Virginia, Char lotte, North Carolina, arid other cities. "It is up to us (physicians) to see that the vaccination statistics tell a different story in 19o9, he said. Dr. Jonaa E. Salk, who discov ered the vaccine bearing his name, says a fourth shot in addition to the usual three would be extra insurance until commercial vac cine is made more potent. The ideal vaccine. Dr. Salk be lieves, would be that in which a single shot would be effective with most people. The March of Dimes, whik spreading its research to the fieldr of arthritis and birth delects, will continue its fight against polio un til the disease is subdued. While the 1958 polio picture was far from' pleasant, experts in th field say it probably would navs been one of the disease's worst years had not Salk vaccine bejs available. ' Chas. J.
