Capital ordered the plane back to Washington for decontamination by the Army Chemical Corps and phoned the 22 Pittsburgh passengers, advising them to take the same shots as Salk had recommended for the crew. It advised the 124 later passengers to get a checkup with a physician, at Capital's expense...
Stanley Kubrick, who looks (according to one Hollywood observer) like "an undernourished Marlon Brando," is the son of a Bronx physician. At 13 he began "fooling around" with his father's Graflex.

...greatest living practitioner of the Victorian novel. The hero is that Mauve Decade martyr, the unconventional artist struggling hopelessly for recognition from a conventional world. Its "bohemian" artists and its fusty gentry are furnished forth with stock-company props and costumes dragged from literature's dustiest attic, and Physician Cronin uses every cliche of this oft-told tale with the almost touching innocence of new discovery, right down to the mustiest of them all-the notion that a man cannot possibly be a genuine genius unless he starves in a garret...
