The Daily Democrat will start this week with a series of editorials pertaining to the Democratic candidates for municipal office. As members of that political party we are proud of the municipal ticket being offered this year. From lop to bottom we believe it is one of the best ever offered by any political party in the history of politics 0 0 College football started in full gear Saturday The big question mark in the top flight class had been Notre Dame, because the famous Irish team had been riddled by graduations. That question at least was partly answered Saturday when the Irish ran rough shod over a strong Southern Methodist team. Whether the Notre Darners can keep up the race may still be a question, but they looked the part OF a champion Saturday. 4 — The world series will start Wednesday, weather liermitting. Both teams, the Yankees and the Bums have had their troubles and are still apparently having them but they have teams good enough to produce some hot games and no doubt will. So place your money as you desire with the knowledge that every player will do his doggondest to win. The first two games will be played at Yankee Stadium and the next two at Ebbets field and then back to the Stadium if need be. —0 0 The honor system for prisoners of Indiana state prison at Michi-/ '"gan City didn't get any help from the priqpn baseball team Sunday. They were taken to South Bend for a game with an independent team but when they lined up, the center and right fielders and first basement were missing. They had taken advantage of the outing and tried to escape. All three were captured In a few hours but the game was called off. One of the men, Harold Lloyd, 30, was a lifer sent up from Bartholomew county for murder in 1949. The other two were serving time for armed burglary. The escape had been planned and officers have no doubt learned their lesson that they can’t give hardened prisoners any advantage.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE SAYING nothing, Adam strode along ahead of Ann. What with the cara one had to walk single-file in such a street. He* heard rather than saw the scuffle behind him, he turned and—- " Great dogs!” he said under his breath. An Indian lay on the ground at Ann’s feet She was watching traffic for a chance to go around him. "What happened?” Adam asked her. “That— character!” she gasped. “He came lurching out of the cantina and fell right on me!” “And you pushed him." “Well, what else?” Adam helped the man to his feet. He was undoubtedly drunk. He wore around his head the white band of a. chief. Adam sald.g few words to the “character," then joined Ann, took her .elbow In his hand and walked her along. “You can get into some big figh,ta_that way,” he said sternly. “Adam —" She drew a deep breath. ’T am not going to let Indians grab me!” “A white man coming out of a door could bump into you unexpectedly.” "He wasn’t a white man. And I hate Indians!” How different Pinky had been last week over that Indian baby! It was small wonder that Adam preferred being with Pinky, and made opportunities to be with her. The chances came easily. Almost every evening, when he returned from the Project, Ann would tell him of somebody who wished to see him. Usually he’d say, “I’ll look them up this eveniag.” Then he would look them up, taking Pinky with him to wait in the car while he talked to a rancher about building a guest house, or to an architect who thought that he and the builder could cooperate. Pinky knew all about the chapel and lodge which had been Bishop Lamy’s retreat “way back when.” She’d stayed at the swank hotel there when she’d first come to New Mexico. Surely! She’d love to go there with Adam. Why not go the next afternoon? It wasn’t far. Next day he stopped at the hotel to say that a storm seemed to be brewing. Pinky’s eyelids flickered. “It’s only in the mountains. You know how this country is. Clouds don’t mean a thing.” But the clouds meant business that night. Adam and Pinky explored the tiny, jewel-like chapel, read the plaque on the wall of the icy entrance way, and came out to find clouds close against their mountain, wind howling about them, catching the words from their lips. Spow and sand stung their cheeks. Adam could scarcely sec to guide Pinky down the slope to the Lodge where he’d left the car. f We’ll get dinner here, and let it alack up.

Wheeee, what a blizzard!”

They went in through the wide porch, stepping across skis and poles and gear. The lamplit lobby was warm and friendly. A big fire roared on the hearth. A group of airmen from Kirtland had come up for some week-end skiing, and it was all very gay in the dining room around the fire afterwards. Adam told some hilarious tales about the South Pacific; these were matched by what he called the fly-boys. One sergeant, a vel-vet-tongued rascal from Georgia, named Ike, who had a curving scar from one eye to the comer of his mouth, was doing his best to tell how he had been "wownded." He was constantly frustrated in this attempt by interruptions and protests from his friends. "You ever let Dunning get started on the late war,” one of the men told Pinky, "you’re right here for all night?” Pinky laughed and laughed. At ten o’clock, Adam thought they ought to try to make it to Santa Fe. The hostess shook her head. “You’d better stay right here for the night," she said. "It's only two miles to the Highway, but with this snow—’’ Adam took a look outdoors, came back and phoned Ann. She assumed that he was up at Los Alamos, and agreed that he shouldn't risk the snowy road at night. “I might get through ...” he said. < “Don’t try it" “You'll be all right?” “If the roof doesn’t blow off.” He left the telephone and joined Pinky and a group about the great open fire. • • • The night of the storm marked a change for Ann. She sat alone in the little cinder-box house, close against the ground, safe from the screaming wind, warm enough physically, but cold to her bones’ core with lonliness. And sullen with a resentment which she would not mark or define. On that night she became a little frightened at this sense of discontent which lately seemed always to be with her. She could perhaps have figured out where the trouble lay, what the trouNe was—but it had been simpler to pretend there was no trouble, to go along, doing her daily tasks, not happy, but — That night, when dark fell, she pulled the draperies across the windows and roamed about the small apartment worrying about Adam out there on that mountain drive. She'd driven It herself enough to know that there were places . . . Did they have landslides in these mountains? She guessed they could. She jumped violently at the slaiqming of the service porch door; probably it was Adam coming in (hat way. She went swiftly through the kitchen to unlock its

door and snap on the lightBut there was no one in the white-painted roomlike porch. The outer door was swinging with each vicious gust of wind. She went over and hooked it tightly shut, went back into the kitchen, locked that door and looked about with relief at the neatness of its shelves, the stove and refrigerator, and checkered red curtain. The warmth of the living room and its lamplight folded reassuringly about her; she was relieved to return to the couch, relieved to be alone. She remembered the way she had stiffened at the noise of the door, and the thought of Adam's return. But now— She hadn’t feally wanted Adam to come home. She looked steadily at the blue fire of the gas heater. "1 can’t bear to have him around me,” she said aloud. “I can’t bear to have him in the house!" tn the deep silence, her words echoed in her mind, repeated themselves. But what a terrible thing for her to say! She didn’t mean it Not really. But, to tell the honest truth — as U was high time to do! —Ann whs more content—she couldn't call it happier — when Adam was away from her, out of the house. Then the things she did, sewing, marketing, cooking, even her frequent excursions to the movies, were all a proper part of such wifely duties as he had allotted her; she could feel virtuous about the job she was doing for him as his wife. But when Adam was at home... She talked to him, she let him touch her — but then a sense of something’s being wrong would threaten her with the Knowledge that there was something wrong! The knowledge had come,to her full force out there on the porch. She was as shocked by the revelation as if she judged a strange woman who told of hating her husband’s presence. "1 can’t stand to have him around me!” Ann had said If she really felt that way, she should pack up and leave! Leave at once. She had no right in Adam’S home. Shivering, Ann sat in the corner of the red couch. She should . . . But she couldn’t leave Adam! ft would mean not seeing him again, not knowing what was happening to him, how far he had gone with his true skill in building, his clever ideas —never, never having his child. One with eyes the color of the sky, and long, straight limbs. She was weeping at this loss when the phone rang, but her voice was quiet. “I’m glad you’re all right, Adam," She said softly. She hung up and went to bed. But the bitter tears continued to flow. She loved Adam. She needed Adam. Her sobs rose and rose, until they filled the empty room, and even the storm could no longer be heard. (To Be Continued!

Polio Expert Discusses The Salk Polio Vaccine

(Editor's note: Jhip is the second of a series of five articles on what parents should know about the Salk polio vaccine. Under Dr. Van Riper's direction the National Foundation sponsored the research development of the vaccine and he is in charge of the foundation's program for vaccinating children in the first and second grades of School.) By OR. HART E. VAN RIPER (Medical Director, NFIP) “Why did my child get polio? None of his playmates had it.’’ Many a parent, suddenly confronted with the dread diagnosis of paralytic polio, has asked this. The answer is that one of the child's playmates, or some other person who was not ill himself, did indeed have the polio virus and did communicate it. The unwitting carrier was protected from paralysis by polio antibodies in his blood. The child who came down with paralytic polio was not. Had that child been given the vaccine that Dr. Jonas E. Salk developed with support from the March of Dimes, he might have been spared paralysis. His .parents could not have been sure of this—no vaccine protects everybody — but the chances would have been somewhere between 60 and 90 per cent that the child would have been brought through his infection with, at worst, a brief illness, and more likely with no Illness at all. Your doctor cannot tell you whether your child has been immunized naturally to paralytic polio through previous "silent infections.” There is no simple, practical test he can make in his office. That is why every child should have the protection of the Salk vaccine — and for that matter why every young adult should have it too as soon as enough vaccine is available. The vaccine achieves pretty much the same preventive effect, artificially, that an actual polio infection does naturally; that is. it sets in motion the human chemistry which produces protective antibodies. Unlike gamma globplin, it does not introduce antibodies, ready-made, into the blood stream in given limited supply. ißather, it is a miniature point 4 program — helping the body to help itself. The only way science has found to ’trigger this latent self-defense when nature has failed to do it is through the use of the virus itself —by introducing inactivated virus directly into the body. -In a small minority of instances nothing happens; in most people the reaction to the presence of the virus is a quick emergency output-of anti bodies. It would be easy enough to do this dangerously. Dr. Salk's job was to find away to do it safely. It was complicated, moreover, by the fact that there are three types of the polio virus, any one of which can cause paralysis. Hence all three types had to be embodied in the vaccine. , •■ - ■ Dr. Salk ’ rendered the virus harmless to human beings by ' killing" it with a solution of formaldehyde. By the Salk method it is in : activated so that it cannot cause paralysis, yet not so completely “dead” that it loses its effect on antibody production . Thus what happens in a Salk vaccination may be described as in the nature of a sham battle, in which the human system is conditioned to defend itself against a harmless facsimile of the polio virus, and after which it remains armed and ready in case the real thing comes along. As soon as Dr. Salk and his colleagues learn how long the effect of one course of Salk vaccine shots lasts, and when, if ever, further booster shots are needed, immunity to paralytic polio can be made lifelong. When the day of universal vaccination comes, at least three out of four of those persons who are now susceptible to paralysis will be forever safe from it. This means that almost all of America’s children will be free of the threat, and their parents free of the fear.
