...Caritas, a 1948 Pullman bought for $10,000 three years ago by Clark Johnson, a Denver physicist. Some $280,000 later, the Caritas is an art-deco beauty, its 14 roomettes ripped out and replaced with a lounge, dining room, kitchen, master bedroom and an open-air platform. Richard Horstmann, 50, a political consultant from Syracuse, admits, "I can't afford this," meaning the Black Diamond, which was the private car of the Lehigh Valley Line's board chairman when Horstmann first saw it as a boy of twelve.

...days the virus courses through the bloodstream-one of the most vital recent discoveries, made simultaneously by Baltimore's Dr. David Bodian and Yale's Dr. Dorothy Horstmann. While there, it stimulates the human system to develop antibodies that will give some degree of immunity -against future infection by virus of the same type but not to any appreciable degree against virus of the two other known types...
...meeting of the American Association of Immunologists in Manhattan last week, two researchers described the experiments that give doctors their new hope. Working independently at Johns Hopkins and Yale, Dr. David Bodian and Dr. Dorothy M. Horstmann had conducted almost identical tests and reached the same conclusion: there is a step missing in the widely held theory that polio passes directly from the alimentary tract to nerve fibers and thus to the nervous system.

But after a few more days the familiar symptoms appeared and paralysis began to set in. At Yale, Dr. Horstmann got similar results...
...Miami by plane the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis packed off a special "polio team" headed by Dr. David Steven Grice of Harvard. With him were a Yale epidemiologist, Dr. Dorothy M. Horstmann, an orthopedic nurse and four physiotherapists. Three other "flying squads" of polio experts have been recruited at Northwestern, Stanford and the D. T. Watson School of Physiotherapy, to speed to the scene of any outbreak on two hours' notice...
