Family Hit by Polio Chosen for Poster
The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis selected Air Force Maj. Joseph L. Solomon's family from Warner Robins Georgia for its 1958 March of Dimes poster. The parents and three children were stricken with polio in 1953 while visiting Lincoln Nebraska. Children Joseph Allen age 9 and Sandra Sue age 6 appear on the poster in braces and crutches. Linda Leg known as Lindy and Mrs Helen Weisgandt Solomon show no after effects though Lindy has back weakness. The family has received $5,000 in March of Dimes aid plus费用 for treatment and will require years of care with surgeries planned for ages 12 and up. The Solomons have since received the Salk vaccine and kept busy with fundraising and daily meals amid still vivid memories of illness.
