Vaccine Triumphs in Polio Fight and Ike Jeep Gift
A Connecticut churchman hails the Salk polio vaccine as a landmark achievement enabling mass vaccination of children. Dr. Jonas Salk credits pioneers Enders, Weller, and Hobbins, whose 1949 cell culture work made vaccine production possible. The vaccine, funded by the public through March of Dimes, is not patentable and promises lifelong protection. Also notes Ike’s jeep donated to Malta Museum, road widening in Middletown, and the marriage of Harry and Nancy Baker at Grace Evangelical church with detailed wedding attire and future plans.
