<p> DIED. Albert Sabin, 86, medical researcher; in Washington.
While the world most honors Jonas Salk as the developer of a
vaccine for polio, the paralyzing illness that terrified America
after World War II, his great rival Sabin devised the oral
version, which did the most to conquer the disease. During the
war, Sabin's vaccines protected thousands of U.S. troops against
such diseases as dengue fever and Japanese encephalitis.
