...stage with the fierce grace of a panther. But later in the week, in the pas de deux from Petipa's sprightly Don Quixote, he reverted to the cool precision of his classical discipline. His high, floating leaps were unstrained, his spins whippet-quick, his every move all fluid grace and beauty of line...

When Kimberly Ann Bruneel, 8, was wheeled into Operating Room No. 1 to have her appendix removed, Nurse-Anesthetist Joan Booth simply jabbed the needle of a syringe through the rubber seal on the "Surital" bottle, drew off some of the fluid, and put a, little into the patient's arm through an intravenous drip tube.

But even that Battle is not yet won. Johns Hopkins' Dr. Craig K. Wallace told the International Congress of Pediatrics in Tokyo hat the death rate is almost seven times as high among children under nine as among adults, because their fluid loss is proportionately greater...
