master plumber who still retains his license to work and
contract in Grass Valley.
He stated that while the
plumbing is sub-standard it
will still work and will cause
no trouble. He added that
if the chargeshad been made
earlier, before the cement
floor had been poured, that
he w ould have advised the
city totear the work out and
re-do it correctly.
Mayor Hodge said that the
city will go ahead with the
little work left to finish the
building andthat some
changes in the above floor
plumbing would be made to
help assure that no problems

DOCTORS URGE VACCINE USE
AUBURN---Establishment of
14 clinic sites in Placer and
Nevada Counties to accommodate the area's 70, 000residents in a mass polio immunization program has
been announced as the first
step in Project S.O.S,--Sabin
Oral Sundays--scheduled for
September 23, November 4,
and December 16.
Sponsored by the PlacerNevada County Medical Society, the program's goal is
the polio immunization of
every man, woman and child
with Sabin oral vaccine in
the most extensive medical
attack on a single disease in
the history of the two counties.
The immunization will be
financed by the medical society to give every member
of every family a chance to
receive the vaccine, Persons
receiving the vaccine will
be invited to contribute, if
they can, 25 cents for each
dose received, tohelp defray
the cost of the program,
Theclinic sites, to be announced soon, will be set up
by the doctors at the schools
inthese areas, They will be
manned by several hundred
volunteers, including the
doctors and nurses,
Western Ne vada County
residents will take their vaccine at Nevada Union High
School.
Dr. John Mathewson of
Auburn is chairman of the
society's S.O.S, project in
the two=county area,
Dr. Mathewsonurges
everyone to take the new
Sabin vaccine, even those
who have already had their
Salk shots.
He explained that not only
doesthe Sabin vaccine work
much more effectively
against polio than the older
Salk serum, but it also prevents children and adults
from being a carrier of the
disease to others--something
the Salk serum cannot do,
“The Sabin vaccine, the
doctor said, is administered
by placing two drops on a
cube of sugar. The vaccine is
harmless, and causes no
after-effects, and has been
tested successfully on tens of
millions of people in the
United States and other countries,
The attack on polio in
Placer and Nevada counties
willbe conducted simultaneously with similar campaigns in 14 Sacramento Valley counties} and six Bay
Area counties, with each
program under direction of
local county medical societ1eSe ’
For complete immunization of each individual,
three vaccinations must be
administered to guard
against the three types of
polio virus which attack and
cripple children and adults,
