You still get the finest foot Roscoe Griffin Completes Remodeling of Store Griffin's Shoe Store, a for midable and dendable business here for nearly 40 years, has recently completed the re modeling of their facilities. Griffin's opened for business in 1930 about 2 doors west of its present location at 114 W. Main St. and was a long time known as Roscoe Griffin, the name of its founder and pres ent secretary-treasurer of the corporation. The completely modern ren oovations to the interior have been an attempt to present to the citizens of Durham and the surrounding area, the most practical, convenient, and mod ern shoe facilities available. Upon entering Griffin's, one views the spacious and carpet ed women's department. Most noticeable are the large display cases on either side where nu merous styles of shoes may be examined along with fashion able bags to complete the matched ensembles. Passing through the multi arched divider, a display case containing the latest fashions in men's styling, commands the view in the rear of the well lighted and spacious men's de partment. >• . ft \*ii> M ' '•/' « ■ I The use of large display areas in Griffin's is a new in novation in customer services in that they have an oppor tunity to "see" shoes rather than boxes.

Susceptible hosts are essential to reproduction of the virus, and the antibodies conferred by vaccination are death to it. Public health officers and private physicians who treat children can eradicate measles, and probably will by 1970, L. L. Coriell, MD, director, Insti tute for Medical Research, Camden, N. J., told members of the Essex and Morris Coun ty Medical Societies here re reccntly. Dr. CorieH's lecture, on im munization of children, was the sixth in a program of eight postgraduate medical lectures delivered during the 1966-67 academic year under the co sponsorship of the two county medical societies and Sandoz Pharmaceuticals. The lectures are certified for postgraduate medical education credit by the Academy of General Practice. Dr. Coriell urged use of live measles vaccine, either the Ed mnnston strain or the further attenuated Schwarz strain. He pointed out that the American academy of Pediatrics' Commit Six New Members Named to Civil Rights Group of State WASHINGTON, D. C.

CERAMICS-AMERICA'S NEWEST HOBBY tfgLgm Of all forms of artistic expres sion, none is more ancient than that of creating objects out of fired clay. And none has taken the country more by storm in the last few years. Ceramics—the art of forming, decorating and firing clay to a permanent hardness-was once limited to a few talented spe cialists. Today, it has swept every neighborhood in the country. Ceramics classes where people create lamps, ashtrays, vases, figurines and an endless vari ety of pieces can be found in almost every American town and city. These classes usually origi nate in a home when a house wife decides to share her hobby with friends and neigh bors. She buys a few sacks of ceramic clay, mixing urns and a few basic molds. Then she casts a few pieces by pouring the liquid clay to harden, re moves the molds and puts the molded piece —called green ware on her shelf prior to her group's arrival. At a ceramic session, the hostess usually acts as teacher, showing how to clean rough spots off greenware, brush on colors and glazes and create imaginative designs. Then she pops the decorated greenware Into her kiln. The following tee on Control of Infectious Diseases has called for elimi nation of measles by 1970. He quoted the campaign motto: "Morbus morbili periat" (The disease, measles, may it perish) Measles is one of six threat ening, once-common, infectious diseases against which infants and young children should be immunized, Dr. Coriell empha sized. The classic triad, DTP (diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis —or whooping cough) should be started at 2 months, with trivalent oral polio at the same office visit, with the second and third DTP injections and oral polio inoculations given at six to eight week intervals, with a booster dose at 13 to 18 months. Measles vaccine should be given at 12 months but, if there is measles in the area, as early as 9 months. Children under 9 months, if exposed to measles, should be protected by injec tion of gamma globulin, he said. "The best way to protect the infant under 1 year against measles is to prevent measles in his older siblings," Dr. Cori ell pointed out. LeMarquis DeJarmon, profes sor of law at North Carolina College in Durham, is vice president of the Southeastern Lawyers Association. He lives at 125 Masondale Avenue in Durham. W. J. (Bill) Bowser, radio artnounc«(r and teacher, is president of the Longhill-lin den Branch of the National Association for the Advance ment of Colored People. The North Carolia State Ad visory Committee is one of 51 such units whose members serve without compensation to provide the Commission with information concerning civil rights activities in their com munities and to disseminate in formation about Federal laws and programs. MIXED MARRIAGES U. S. OPINIONS According to a recent Gallup Poll sponsored by The Catholic Digest, Americans show a defi nite disposition to resist any outright amalgamation of re ligious traditions through inter marriage. The question: " would you just as soon have a member of your family marry a Protestant, Catholic, or Jew as someone of your own religion, or not?" Protestants as viewed by Catholics and Jews. Forty-seven percent of Catholics said Yes. Only 16% of the Jews were willing to have Jews marry Protestants. week her friends return to pick up their fire-hardened ceramic creations. Soon her hobby grows into a business and she moves into commercial space and sets up regular evening class sched ules. Then she adds more molds and sells the greenware, "kiln-time" and colors to stu dents. The hobbyist soon learns that impressive ceramic pieces can be made for a fraction of their retail cost and can be given as gifts or to decorate the creator's own home. Moreover, it gives the busy mother or wife a creative outlet and a chance to get away for a couple of hours a week to a quiet, relax ing atmosphere. Ceramics is also a perfect hobby for shut-ins,, older per sons, women's clubs and qro)ipe of youngsters who need weekly craft activities. Ceramic shows are sched uled on a regular basis in many cities by local ceramic clubs. The National Ceramic Manu facturers Association stages a major conference and trade show for distributors, studio owners and teachers annually in July —this year July 19-22 in Chicago.
