tials in human beings as a basis

Type III Sabin Polio Vaccine
Available Again This Sunday
PRESS CONFERENCE
College President Gives
Opinion on ASS Govt.
One of the problems in student government is a failure on the
part of student leaders to delegate work and responsibility to more
Lancers, Dr. Catherine J. Robbins, president of Pasadena City Col¬
lege, pointed out in her weekly press conference with Courier report¬
ers.
This, in some cases, she noted, results in apathy. ASB officers
tend to do too much of the work. Including more people and dele¬
gating more responsibility helps to combat neutral feelings about ASB
government, Dr. Robbins said.
The press conference can be heard over KPCS (89.3 FM) Thurs¬
day night at 7:45.
Dr. Robbins had the following statements to make concerning
other topics:
Grade Point Average: “A 2.0 grade point average is now necessary
for graduation. In the past, approximately five or six years ago, a 1.0
was sufficient. Also, some students have attended PCC long enough
to accumulate 120 credits although not always carrying a “C” average.
However, we find that grades are usually not a problem with gradu¬
ates.”
Open House: “We extend an invitation to the citizens to come to
PCC next Wednesday from 7:30 to 9 p.m. and see our fine new facili¬
ties. The college community wishes to express appreciation to those in
attendance for their continuing interest in and support of PCC.”
JC Conference: “The American Association of Junior Colleges is
a coordinating group. More than 600 of the existing 700 junior col¬
leges in the United States attended in Denver, Colo., last year.”
Dr. Robbins will fly to the meeting in Seattle February 26. Those
attending will discuss the maintenance of junior colleges and such
areas of the provision of high level vocational programs.
SABIN RECIPIENT — About to take Type III Sabin oral polio vac¬
cine Sunday is this child in a polio ward at Los Angeles County
General Hospital. Dr. Valerie Budnick will give the vaccine, which
is taken on a cube of sugar.
Type III Sabin oral polio vac¬
cine will be offered for the last
time Sunday as part of the cur¬
rent three-stage immunization
campaign in public clinics
throughout this area.
The Sabin vaccine is taken on
a lump of sugar. A donation of
25 cents is asked. However, the
vaccine is provided free of charge
to those who are unable to pay.
The Los Angeles County Medi¬
cal Association noted that the fi¬
nal vaccine against the killer-
crippler disease has been recom¬
mended for every man, woman,
and child in this potentially epi¬
demic area.
Sabin vaccine should be taken
even by those who have had Salk
shots. It provides extra protec¬
tion and keeps the individual from
being a carrier, which Salk does
not.
Persons without Type I or II
Sabin vaccine can take them lat¬
er from their own physicians.
Sabin clinics may be found in
Altadena at Edison School and
Eliot Junior High.
In Pasadena, locations are Mar¬
shall Junior High School, Pasa¬
dena High School, McKinley Ju¬
nior High, Pasadena City College,
Wilson Junior High, Garfield Ele¬
mentary, Lincoln Elementary,
Field Elementary School, and
John Muir High School.
