You enter the hall and there you see about 1,300 students, everyone of them alive and vitally interested in something or other.

We don't have a school of technicians, a' house full of stenographers (al- though there seems to be plenty) or a school of scholars all trained in the higher branches of mathematics or psychology. We don't have a building full of dreamers and think- of musicians, or business administrators, but believe it, brother, we have our share. We have a cross- section of young America to rival anybody's school anywhere. Where do you fit in? A. B.

ed off on one of its most signifi- "Skontnr" cant years, we hope. The band has been enlarged this year, and will make the total sum of players up to 61. Players who have come from other bands have enlisted to give more support in the different sections. Some players who have been playing in the intermediate band have grdauated to the advanced band, but they will not be given a uniform yet. When the young players have polished up their playing, the band should be in as good form as ever before.

Mr. Martinez, director, will have section rehearsals, such as taking the clarinets off to themselves and working with them. He is to be assisted in this by Jack Hunter and Peter Mackey of the Schreiner Institute band. Hunter and Mackey will also help the band to improve their marching. The band hall has been improved to a very modern point, thanks to Mr.

Martinez' knowledge of carpen-i try and the ability to paint, as well! as being a good director. Carpets covering the floor, celutex and an inside paint job, along with I curtains to be hung in the near future will not only deaden the sound: but also give everything a more dignified look from within. The band is anxious to see the football team in action this year and is ready to give them all the peppy music they want. As a whole, it is expected to improve greatly HEARD -T- Guerilla warfare is admittedly a thorn in the side of Germany's invading army.

Dr.

Edward A. Piszczek, Cook County health director, announced the discovery of seven healthy carriers of the poliomyelitis well persons who harbor the virus with the ability to infect others. So little is known about the cause and control of polio that Piszczek andi his laboratory staff are pressing the search with the ardor of scientists on the verge of important discoveries. A grant of $4,000 from the national foundation for infantile paralysis, which disburses funds from the president's birthday balls, las been virtually exhausted. One iiindred and twenty monkeys have been utilized and additional hun-i dreds have been ordered.

"Experiments at Yale University years ago established thatj lealthy persons may be poliomyel- tis carriers," Dr. Piszczek said, is the first time the carriers 1 I have been located so quickly. "Speed is essential in chocking an epidemic." He explained that the Western Springs investigation was the first 1 time in which it was possible, be-' cause of the small size of the com- munity, to examine everyone who' came in contact with the little lem- i onade vendor. That she was the prime source! i established early in the inves- tigation. One hot afternoon in July' she did a lively business in front of her home.

What did it matter if, as the day wore on, the glasses werent' rinsed after every using? i The customers weren't fussy and kept plunking down their pennies' just the same. Then she and four customers; came down with the disease. It was I its first appearance in the community this season. Doctors pounced on the case as an opportunity to establish important new facts in the long, discouraging battle against polio. Here was the! evident source of a small epidemic.

Her contacts and those of her play-! mates could be traced with comparative ease. The reports of Western Springs: doctors immediately attracted the attention of Dr. Piszczek. He sought and obtained the grant from the infantile paralysis fund. Dozens of tiny rhesus monkeys were brought to the Cook County laboratory and tested with injections from the! known victims and suspects from' the suburb.

i Three members of the familes of. the five polio cases and four apparently healthy playmates were found to be carrying the virus. The four had played with the five who became ill. "One of the chief immediate aims of our research," the doctor said, "is to learn how little contact spreads the disease and how long the carrier harbors the virus." Those accomplishments would make the lemonade stand in Western Springs a historic landmark in man's fight against poliomyelitis. youte WHAT HELPS BUSINESS HELPS YOU" CAN YOU- STOP Your car without skidding on slick, unsafe CAN STEER Your car without useless strain due to need of a good lubrication CAN YOU-DRIVE Your car without being at least a little ashamed of its appearance and state of For the sake of your family you should be sure that your car is in tip-top condition.
