Show November Thurday, THE 1952 27, Alert Scientists Grow Polio Vaccine In Chicken Embryo NEW YORK The first vaccine to make people immune to polio may have been developed recently at laboratories here. The new vaccine already has been tested on 20 human volunteers. All developed protective antibodies in the blood, materials produced In the blood which light disease organisms. None of the volunteers suffered any bad side effects. However, the vaccine will not necessarily give immunization from all types of polio as it was produced from only one of the three strains of virus that cause the disease, possibly the most deadly. But it may develop initial basic immunity against the other two strains. The scientists have been able to induce the elusive virus to grow in chick embryos in eggs, meaning that eventually it will be possible to manufacture the protective virus in large amounts. The major problem in making a vaccine to use against virus disease such as polio has been found in the difficult character of viruses themselves scientists still don't know exactly what they are. A virus, unlike a bacteria which is a living organism, acts like both an organism and a chemical molecule. It is much smaller than a bacteria, and cannot be seen without an electron microscope. But a virus will grow or multiply only in a living celL Some scientists think they are a sort of gene, heredity agent, gone wrong. Levari News of Provo were guests of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. H.

Sprinkles for NAPLES The will of the deceased man made the gravediggers very happy. Of course, they realized that digging his grave would be a more arduous task than their job usually required. The dead man weighed 270 pounds. But as they dug, each shovelful of dirt became lighter and lighter. Pretty soon the dirt seemed to weigh nothing at all, and the gravediggers grew more cheerful. They were seen taking large and frequent swigs from some wine flasks sitting on the ground beside the new grave. The dead man's will had bequeathed them the flasks full of wine so the deceased wouldn't seem like "such a large corpse." VXHV . WAITED PAINTER ocz 7.

In the form of special grants by Utah Copper to the University of Utah, Brigham Young University and Utah State Agricultural College, copper is helping Utahns gain knowledge through research to build a more prosperous state in the years to come. A Utah Copper grant to U.S.A.C. is being used for experimenta Rambouillet to improve sheep, to study how copper and other trace elements may help cure diseases among cattle and fruit and improve crop yields. A similar grant to B.Y.U. is being used for research in the field of metallurgy. Woman Leaps Quicker Than Coiled Rattler PANAMA CITY, Fla. The n snake missed, Mrs. Woody didn't. She battered the 14 inch ground rattler, which she had found coiled at the foot of her small son's crib, with a coal shoveL The wife of the Panama country club golf pro, who says she has been "terrified of snakes" all her life, found the reptile in son's bedroom her when she answered his call. "For a moment," she says, "I was panicked. Then I happened to think of a coal shovel which hung near the back door. "I kept my eyes on the rattler while I got the shovel from the hook." As the reptile, one of the most poisonous of its species, struck, so did the frightened mother. She connected squarely. The grant to the U. of U. is helping to solve problems in metal mining, while part of it will be used to build a nuclear reactor that in turn will help solve other problems through the magic of atomic energy.

Flies, it seems, can adapt themselves to practically any conditions to which man subjects them. Whenever man invades new territories, the fly comes right in after him. Altho'igi it seems certain that the fly is going to be with us for a while, there are a couple of bright spots in the picture. "Base sprays like pyrethrum and which are at least temporarily effective may soon be produced commercially," Kntpe says. "And the fly population doesn't seem to be Increasing.
