While Mrs. Axsom was working with muscular dystrophy patients in Indiana, she had promised some of them an outing similar to one others of this incurably ill group had taken to Chicago. After a job shift to Illinois, the promise seemed impossible to fulfill. But a Bloomington, 111., businessman, John Pemberton, wrote to some Sarasota friends, and the vacation finally came into being. The group is in Florida this week, swimming, fishing, golfing, touring and yachting, as their handicaps permit. A bus which accommodates
wheel-chair patients is Sarasota's gift to the tourists, and other special arrangements were made for them. Youngest of the group is 8-year-old Ward Allen Beckham, Indianapolis. Quentin Macy, 10, Wheatland, Billy Rieke, 16, Greensburg, and Mrs. Gizelle Hoffman, Gary, are other Indiana MD patients on the trip. The others are cerebral palsy patients from Illinois and relatives of the handicapped persons who care for them. The week in the sun will end for the 15 Saturday.

Museum Clearance Sale NEW YORK.(UPI) — The Metropolitan Museum of Art held a clearance sale this summer and did a thriving business in such articles as neolithic flints, scarabs, jars found in tombs and fragments of stone and pottery. The purchasers were adults and children who visited the Museum during its second annual sale of surplus materials that other museums in the country did not want.
