Editorial: A Terrible Time

This “Case Study” is very much different than the others included in this issue. Lyle Knutson was a college classmate of mine. At a recent class reunion Linda Knutson Strand, Lyle′s sister married to another classmate of mine told me about the episode of polio her brother endured and how it affecte d the entire family. I remember other children that I knew who also had polio and the polio epidemic of the early 50s was an event in this country worthy of being remembered. I think the piece also serves to remind us of how things were in rural Minnesota in the early 1950s.
