city and county health officer today reported two dcatha from diphtheria in a week from a single Fresno school and announced plans for an immunization campaign At the same time he urged-parents of children of elementary grade age to cooperate In protecting their families from the disease "There Is a state wide Increase in diphtheria" Dr Stein reported "Fresno city had 24 cases last year compared to 10 In 1944 Four the cases last year were fatal" The recent deaths were of children from the Columbia School Dr Stein said he will ask the city commission Thursday for funds with which to engage two physicians to aid in an immunization campaign with the cooperation of school officials In addition the health department office in the 1000 block on Street will conduct a clinic from 9 to 10 A every Saturday where t-hlldren of elementary school age I be Immunized for a nominal and voluntary fee May Need Booster Dr Stein advised parents of children who have not been immunized for three years to have their physicians check on whether they need a booster dose to assure protection from the disease Statistics compiled by the health department show cases appear more prevalent recently among older elementary school children and Dr Stein attributes that fad to the probability immunization has protected the younger children in a large percentage of cases The health officer declared a 75 per cent immunization in a single school is sufficient to control the An aggregate item of S2049300 for eight building projects on the Freano State College campus is Inlet uded in a 5154000000 five year postwar state building construe-Ition program proposed to the leglo-llature today by Governor Earl War-ren The list of projects in the gov-I amor's program also includes a 5500000 state office building in Tresno and a 550000 department ef motor vehicles building in Baker- field 1941 Estimates Revised The seven major structures in I eluded In the FSC share of the state I wide program are the ones first I proposed In 1941 when a study of the college building needs waa i made Frank Thomas FSC I president said the estimated total Icost of the buildings then was shout I5L500000 but the figures have since Ibeen revised upward by the state I division of architecture to conform I with present day cost figures I The major baildingi and their I estimated cost were lilted by the I governor ai follows: I Industrial arts shop 5335000 I men's gymnasium 384000: science Ibulldlng addition 5242000 farm land agricultural shop 566000 music and auditorium structure 5598-1000 administration building $149-1 000 and demonstration school 15246000 Speech Building Included Added to these In tha last was a 1530000 addition to the speech building which Thomas said was not included in the 1941 program be-I cause it was considered an emergency project of minor cost which Icould be taken care of outside a ng appropriation bill Thomas said the plana for the men's gymnasium the industrial larta shop and the science building I wing are so near completed the contracts could be let within a Imonth and the work started as I soon aa materials are obtained Flans for the entire campus bundling program are about two thirda (completed The college president explained the 1943 legislature which (earmarked a percentage of state sales tax receipts for the postwar state building program alio appropriated fundi for an immediate I start by the state architectural di vision on plana for tha structures This start was ordered so the state MP Finds Life Hazardous In Combatting
