Dr. Lucchesi had Johnny well along on his way to victory over infantile paralysis when "the time came for him to lay aside his' hospital garb for Uncle Sam's khaki. When Victory over Axis aggression is a reality, the physician will go right on fighting the Crippler, childhood's enemy on the" home front. This remarkable picture, taken at the Philadelphia Hospital for Contagious Diseases, shows Johnny and his pal who is helping1 him to recapture the miracle of motion, childhood's natural heritage. Throughout America there are thousands of children like Johnny O'Rourke who have been aided by The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and the March of Dimes, which occurs this year January 14-31.
