When is a fetus legally alive? Should an infant with a con genital disorder be kept alive at great expense--or should he be allowed to die quickly and at a very early age?" These questions and more, occu pied the thinking of American Association of University Wo men members at the Monday evening, November 13, meet ing of the Ontario branch at the Nyssa Public Library.

About forty mem bers and guests enjoyed the evening’s activities. Mrs. Sherve showed a slide program entitled “On Life and Death; the Biological Revolu tion,’’ which brought the down- to-earth importance of consi deration and decision about the basic issues of life and death. Almost every person living to day will have to make deci sions concerning national prio rities, as well as his own per sonal sense of morality and priority. People will be re quired more and more to decide for themselves such things as Whether to allow hopelessly ill relatives to “die with dignity,’’ or to encourage an unwanted pregnancy to end in abortion, or to permit the easy demise of a congenitally inadequate in fant. No conclusions were reached but the group agreed that these questions must require much earnest and open-minded con sideration for all of us.
