MODERN SUCCESS STORY CHARLESTON, Jan. 12—This is a modern success story. It isn’t a rarity and therefore not unusual in the sense that it doesn’t happen often. Wherever there are good doctors, nurses, sufficient equipment and kind- hearted people it is happening again and again in South Caro lina. Yet it’s the p%rt of an over all picture which is too often over looked. For here at Charleston’s Roper Hospital two more young ‘polio patients have been guided back to health. The story really starts back in the summer of 1952 when two- year-old Douglas Hires and three- year-old Ed Smoak were stricken with infantile paralysis. They were immediately rushed to the hospital here which serves polio patients from 12 counties. Then began a long series of treat ments which lasted through the summer, into the fall and which are still going on in some de gree. Douglas and Ed aren’t complete ly cured now. But the goal is within sight Through the long months of pain and suffering the youngsters have smiled bravely as they fought against the after-effects of in fantile paralysis. To them the treatments have been something of a long “swimming party.” Their daily “swim” was a dip in the large Hubbard Tank here at the hospital where they exercised under the watchful eye of trained physical therapists. Douglas is the son of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Hires, of Lodge and Ed is the son of Mr. and Mrs. I' C. L. Smoak of Walterboro. recovered from the effects of Through the summer and fall both lio. boys lived at the hospital sinceDouglas, too, is about ready t there were no facilities in Walter-! leave the hospital.
