Half Million Salk
Shots Paid By
March of Dimes
"Since the polio epidemic in
the fall of 1959 more than half
a million Salk Vaccine injec-
tions have been given and a
total of 150,000 adults complet-
ed the full three injection pro-
gr
Th
am."
is statement was made to-
day by Mrs. Frank Fingland,
Chief Marching Mother for the
March of Dimes Campaign be-
ing held in Clinton on January
30.
The MotherS' March which
takes one hour each year, will
raise the funds to finance the
work of the Rehabilitation
Foundation here and through-
out Ontario in 1961.
"The medical program of the
Foundation," said Mrs. Fing-
land, "begins with work for
prevention, but the main func-
tion of the March of Dimes is
rehabilitation and we accept all
orthopaedic disabilities, includ-
ing accident and other diseases
as well as polio victims."
Mrs. Fingland' explained that
the Foundation's caseworkers
see that patients, referred by
their family physicians, reach
one of the orthopaedic clinics
held regularaly, at 11 Ontario
centres. These clinics are con-
ducted by orthopaedic surgeons
on the March of Dimes Medi-
cal Advisory Board who pre-
scribe treatment and provide
corrective surgery when re-
quired.
Three years ago, it was im-
possible for 'the Foundation to
deliver treatment promptly for
all patients, due to lack of fac-
ilities. At that time, the Found-
ation's medical advisory board
recommended March of Dimes
support to help establish treat-
ment centres throughout the
Province to provide facilities
for local patients. Six centres
are now in operation in Ottawa,
Kingston, Hamilton, Windsor,
The Lakehead and Toronto.
Among the many services a-
vailable at these centres, sp-
eech therapy plays an import-
ant part in the treatment of
stroke patients.
When asked how patients
may come to the attention of
the Foundation, Mrs. Fingland
said that "anyone may refer a
patient, but in every case the
Foundation checks back with
the family physician."
"In the past 12 months, 1104
new patients were referred to
the Foundation from all parts
of the Province. All have re-
ceived assistance or are now
undergoing treatment or train-
One major contribution in
the successful rehabilitation of
disabled adults is the freely
given skills of the member sur-
geons. Doctors of international
reputation give unstintingly of
their time and ability at no
cost. Only patients who have
received the benefits from such
talents can fully appreciate the
service provided by these men.
"We now have the facilities
to provide treatment promptly
to 'any disabled man or woman
in Ontario," said Mrs. Fingland
"the demand for service now
exceeds the funds available,
This year, 200 March of Dimes
conimittees in Ontario hope to
raise $650,000 but we believe
the need will be greater than
'this before the year is out.
There are so many disabled
persons' who can be helped",
concluded Mrs. Fingland, "and
we can use every volunteer we
can get in 'the Mothers' March
on January 30. We need every
dollar that anyone can spare to
help restore these injured men
and women to the dignity of in-
dependence which is possible
for them today •as never be-
fore,"
Anyone who can spare the
hour on the evening of Janu-
ary 30 should phone Mrs. Cl-
arence Denomme at HU 2-
9704. The Clinton volunteer
committee of the March of
Dimes needs More volunteer
