She will take better care of herself, follow a bet-te- better diet, and learn more about pregnancy and infant care. Instead of seeing a doctor for the first time when she is in latior, she will see one often, get his advice, and follow it.

Worse still, many are infants who live in large cities in the shadow of our best medical centers. It has been well said that the level of any civilization can be judged by the way in which th" very young and the very old are cared for. By that standard, ours is seriously lacking in its concern for the welfare of its youngest members, particularly those of minority groups and others who are not receiving the full benefit of scientific achievement. As a voluntary health association deeply concerned with the quality of life at birth, The National Foundation has launched a new perinatal program to stimulate both laymen and medical men to do some thing about infant mortality, and do it now. f i( cial attention, and the chances an underweight, premature, or critically iil baby can thereby be materially reduced. of their delivering Regional Nurseries Hut prenatal care is not enough. Some babies come into the world in trouble, and the Foundation now seeks to maximize the chance of healthy survival for these children too. To accomplish this, we are supporting the establishment of regional intensive care nurseries lICNs) to which such babies can lie swiftly and safely transported. Once in the ICN, the baby is monitored electronically and constantly watched over by skilled nurses and residents. Some need more oxygen. Others who are suffering from neonatal jaundice need treatment to prevent this temporary condition from causing brain damage. Still others have such difficulty in breathing that they require temporary assistance from a respirator especially designed for infant lungs. We do not believe that every hospital nursery should be staffed and cHiipi'ed to treat critically ill babies.

The school official said the group of boys were "sent home" and instructed to shave and change their shirts. The incident began when the school's male pep club wore shirts with a modified version of the school symbol, "The Plainsman," a frontier figure with beard and long hair. The pep club interpretation had the figure with a cigarette in his mouth and sporting a peace symbol. Stenger said the shirts, as well as the boys' facial hair, violated the school's dress code, which has come under fire in recent months.
