ATTACK AND DKFENME
JU.ST AS a boxer protects him-
iclf the best he can while also try-
ing to attack his opponent sud-
■csxfully, a No Trump declarer
must guard himself against the
run of a dangerous suit while he
s trying to build up the tricks he
aeeds. One of the greatest perils
that can threaten a No Trump
contract is that of letting the op-
ponents lead through some suit in^
which he has only a single guard.

This hand furnished a beautiful

tract was set.
South had really only mx dan-

self. That was the possibility that
East might get into the lead. Any
finessing should have been to-
ward West, who could not lead
through the diamond K. but only

If the declarer had gone to the

ond trick and then finessed clubs,
no power on earth could have pre-

Infantile Paralysis ...
Attacks in Summer —
* * *
banger Lurks in Many Swimming Holes
By LOGAN CLF.NDENING. M. D.
• INFANTILE Jiaralysi* I* one
of the few contagious disease*
that occur more often in the sum-
mer. Other epidemic infections—
measles, scarlet fewer, mumps —
are prcvaS»nt in winter. The ex-
planation for this seasonal occur-
rence i* that in winter there aro
more hnnmn contacts—in school,
in offices, with the window* dosed,
etc. In summer we are outside
v. :th great open spaces in between
ti. »nd contacts aro cut down.
Undoubtedly infantile paralysis
c:i- V spread by contact; in fact,
itr.t is it* most frequent method
spread. Hut tho fact that epi-
•i'tricx begin in the summer
month* when contacts are reduced
Dr. Clundening will answer
question* of general interest
•»ifv, and then only through
ini* column.
iu number ha* led many epidemi-
ologist* to suppose that there is
another factor at work.
Many leads
For many years there ha* been
ri idea prevalent that exposure
to cold and wet had something to
do with it fto many case* can be
pointed out Where the onset fol-
lowed swimming overlong in cold
water. I have heard a prominent
health officer argue that such chill-
ing produce* a susceptibility in the
body which allows the virus to
ontcr.
IVrhaps not chilling but somo-
thrng else associated with water
i» responsible. Lovett and Rich-
ardson suggested the disease
-seemed to prefer river valleys,
but concluded that this was prob-
ably due to the increased oppor-
tunities for personal contact since
highwaya and railroads frequent-
ly follow such valleys. They re-
■g'&Zs&sS'-F&rJ-
years gave a history of swimming,
wading or paddling ia the water
just before the attack.
An obaervation that explains
these scattered facta is that the
waters are aewage polluted. Ells-
worth, a sanitary engineer of wide
experience, reports that In his *UT-
vey of conditions at Fall River,
Massachusetts, in 19S4, he found
that the sewage was discharged in-
to the waters of Mount Hope Boy
at the mouth of the Taunton River,
and that bathing beaches along
the waterfront were, under cer-
tain conditions of wind and tide,
affected by sewage pollution. In
1935 Massachusetts was visited
by an epidemic of infantile paraly-
sis and Fall River had the largest
number of eases of any city or
town. The virus of Infantile pa-
ralysis can be recovered from the
mucosa of the intestinal tract..
If infantile paralysis enter# the
body through the olfactory nerve*,
as is now generally believed, there
is no reason why such infection
cannot occur in the course ef
swimming in polluted waters.
The idea suggests a practical
method of possible prevention in
the presence of an epidemic.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWER*
Constant Reader. Palm Beach,
Fla.—"What foods contain wheat
germ oil and what foods contain
Vitamin E?"
Answer—Wheat germ oil is the
substance from which the crystal-
line forms (alpha, beta and gam-
ma tocopheral) of Vitamin E ara
obtained in concentrated form. Oile
from wheat, rice, cotton and corn,
leafy vegetables, eggs and animal
tissues contain Vitamin K.
