EYE BANK WEEK ’
"Eyes are for the Living" is the theme of a campaign designed
to inform the people of Georgia that some blind may see and to
encourage people to donate their eyes upon their death to make
this possible.
A proclamation has been signed by Governor Carl E. Sanders
designating March 15-21 as Eye Bank Week.
In March, 1963, the Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation took
over the operation of the Eye Bank in Georgia and 250 Lions
Clubs in the State are actively supporting it.

CLAYTON COUNTY STATIONS
READY FOR SUNDAY ’S SOS
Atlanta area residents are ex
pected to turn out again in re
cord numbers next Sunday and
again March 22 to participate
in the second phase of the
Sabin Oral Sunday mass im
munization program against
polio.
Campaign officials said that
although nearly 800,000 in an
18-county area in an around
Atlanta received Type I Sabin
oral vaccine in February, it
is hoped that even more will
report to the immunization cen
ters to receive Type in Sabin
vaccine.
Physicians of the county me
dical societies sponsoring the
campaign explained that thous
ands of adults, particularly, in
this area have not had the Type
HI vaccine, as it was not avail
able in a previous mass im
munization program.
Therefore, those who are not
sure what type they or mem
bers of their family have had
before should, to be safe, be
sure that all concerned receive
Type in. It will be offered to
everyone over six weeks of
age, including adults over 40.
The physicians reminded, too,
that all three types of Sabin
oral vaccine are necessary for

complete immunization against
polio. Type H vaccine, which
completes the necessary ser
ies, will be offered on April
19 and 26. It was stressed fur
ther that although some persons
missed getting Type I last
month, they should certainly a
vail themselves of the oppor
tunity to receive the other two
dosages. Type I will be avail
able later from personal phy
sicians.
Another important point is that
the Sabin vaccine series not
only provides immunization but
it also prevents anyone from be
ing a carrier of the dread polio
virus. Thus, if most of the
residents in the area receive
the full dosage, polio should be
virtually eliminated as a threa
tening crippier throughout the
campaign area.
The immunization centers,
which will be open from noon
until sp.m. on Sabin Oral Sun
day, are conveniently located
in schools and health centers *
in the various counties. Clayton
County Stations are Forest Park
High, North Clayton High, Lee

armacists, and representatives
of civic, educational, business
and youth organizations. The
centers are well organized, and
the immunization procedure,
which consists of taking the
vaccine on a lump of sugar, or
from a dropper in the case of
infants, should take no more
than five or ten minutes for
each individual.
