FACULTY REPRESENTATIVE Clifton T. Holman, Jr. Publi!shed monthly during the school year at Cardigan Mountain School in the interest of the school, its graduates and the student body.
Polio Fight Goes On Polio isn't licked yet! These fo ur words sum up th e present state of the fight against infa ntile paralysis. We at Cardigan Mountain School are vitally interested. The Salk vaccine is a tremendous stride forward. Now, a t long last , we have good reason to hope for the eventual control of poli'o. But a vaccine does not eliminate a disc2se overnight. Tragic proof of this are foe tens of thousands of Americans, many of them high school ·students, who were stricken with polio during 1955. Today these most recent polio victims, along with those from former years - 68,000 in all -re.quire aid in their struggle to rebuild their lives.. Thousands more will be hit by the disease before widespread use of the Salk vaccine can reduce the toll significantly. For all these victims of polio-past , present and future - the Marc h of Dimes stands ready to offer aid, no matter how g reat the cost. No limit is put on the value of a life. As much as $20,000 has be en spent on a single patient. Costly too is the training of hundreds of physical therapists, medical social workers and especially skilled nurses and physicians, all urgently needed to help restore polio patients to useful living. Last year the National Folmdation for Infantile Paralysis bought vaccine fo r primary school children · at the rate of 35 cents a shot-but the first shot of Salk vaccine cost $25,500.000 t o J)roduce. This vaccine is 60 per cent to 90 per· cent effective. Scientist s, workin g und er March of Dimes grants, are today trying to learn whether an even more effective one can be developed . · Certainly this is a time of great promise in the long fight again st polio. It is not a time for comp lacency or a let-down in effort: The ¥arch of Dim es needs and deserves your support. Give to it, as often and as generously as y ou are ab le.

Vaccines for oth er dis eases have bee n g r eatly improved ove r th e year s.
