State health reports infantile paralysis cases in Ark and retains health chief
The state health board reported sixty total infantile paralysis cases in Arkansas this year, noting scattered instances and advising parents on precautions. In Little Rock the board described the patient as a young girl near Carie, hospitalized as cases continue to surface. The panel reappointed Dr W B Gragson to a four year term and ruled that municipal water reservoirs not be used for bathing. Memphis notes highlight Richel Fay Brown, seven, who won top prize at a Nashville state violin contest with her performance of the Hobgoblin Dance while praising her talent.
