The Persistent Ones
' Never say die' is an attitude of mind that strikes a chord in the hearts of all men. The whole world loves a trier, and the Olympic Games have many examples of indomitable perseverance. ALAIN mimoun, of France, who won three silver medals in 1948 and 1952, but tried for gold once more in 1956. DONALD FINLAY, of Great Britain, spanned 19 years as an Olympic competitor, and made his last effort in 1948 at the age of 38. And HERB MCKENLEY, of Jamaica, who won three silver medals in five attempts and was left with one last chance in Helsinki in 1952. Not all the stories have happy endings, but all are testaments to man's courage and determination.

We teach our children not to fear animals. We wander freely in the countryside, knowing that the only poisonous animal in Britain is the adder, which will not attack us unless we attack it.
But in Europe people now have a very different attitude to animals whether they be strays or some wild animal in the forest - an attitude generated by the knowledge that one of the most horrible diseases known to man has spread from Eastern Europe until it is now close to the gates of Paris. The disease is rabies-the only infectious disease that is invariably fatal and one which leads to an agonising and terrifying death. Will we be able to keep rabies out of Britain? Will the Channel prove to be an effective barrier to the march of rabies across Europe? Or will a smuggler masquerading as an animal-lover dodge the law and put us all at risk?
Christopher Brasher reports on what we have to do to keep rabies
* out and what will happen to our way of life if it should ever get a hold on our land.
