In fact, you can assume that you are not alone in any of your se cret fears. We recently asked 973 young pco ole in many parts o the United States if they have any secret fears. Although 59 per cent denied it, and 6 per cent didn't answer the question, 35 per cent admitted they do. We imagine that many of those who denied it would, if they spoke their inner thoughts, change their minds. For fear begins in infancy and lasts through life. As the late Hugh Walpole, a British novelist, once wrote: "We are so largely the play things of Fate in our fears. To one, fear of the dark, to another, of physical pain, to a third, of public ridicule, to a fourth of pov- 10 a nun oi loneliness lor ertv all of us our particular creature i your answer with those lurks in ambush." ceived to these questions Here are some of the fears of some of your contemporaries: "1 fear death, childbirth, humili ation," says Ann Rogers, 18, of Lawrenceburg, lnd. Gary Carter, 17, of Alper, Ore., fears that "loved ones close to me will die." Geri Goodwin, 15, of State Col lege, Pa., has a common fear, but the courage to admit it a fear of being alone in the dark. "Speaking in front of people," is the fear that bedevils 17-year-old Prudence Perkins of Eugene, Ore. Karen Edcns, 16, of Waterloo, Iowa, has a secret fear of world destruction: Elaine Simcl, 16, of Brooklyn. N. Y., a fear of being an old maid; Jerry Lieberman, 17, of Newark, N. J., "that 1 won't be accepted in college." In all probability, you can find your own secret fear in that list. You might also wish to comparo we re- Is your fear justified? Of the 35 per cent who acknowledged that they have secret fears, 23 per cent feel they arc justified. Are you trying to overcome it? Twenty-six per cent say they are. Is there anyone you confide in? Twenty-three per cent say there is. Most Not Justified Some fears are casv to justify, others are not, and others are not justifiable at all. The girl with a fear of being an old maid, sees justification for her fear in the fact that "there are more women than men." She has statistics to back her up. But this isn't true of most of our fears. And many of you will agree with Shcrla Brown, 17, of Eugene, Ore., who says: "There are no sound reasons behind my fears, but they persist nonethe less." Young people who are trying to overcome their tears have some pretty sound ways of attacking them. Sherla Brown, for example says she does so "by talking com mon sense to myself -And listen' ing to the counseling of my mother." Further Evidence Advanced That Virus Is Responsible For Some Human Cancer ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. (AP) A strong possibility that some forms of human cancer may be caused by a virus has been ad vanced by scientists from re search projects in New York and Chicago. beings for the first lime. ing whether any human cancers are caused by viruses. Researchers at the Chicago project determined that the blood serum from human leukemia pa tients failed to protect guinea Researchers from the two sen- Dies against the disease. This in arate projects presented papers j dicated that the blood of people at the annual meeting of the I with leukemia, for some reason, American Association for Cancer did not possess antibodies against Research Friday, outlining their the disease progress along the same theory. Drs. Irving Greenspan and Ste ven O. Schwartz of the Hektoen Institute for Medical Research and Cook County Hospital. Chi cago, reported that leukemia, the deadly cancer of the blood and blood forming organs, is probably caused by a virus in both mouse and man and the disease in each is closely related. Three other scientists Elmer T. Feltz, Dr. James T. Grace and Dr. Julian L. Ambrus of the Rose wall Park Memorial Institute, Buffalo. N.Y. said they have car ried out an experiment producing Nor did the blood of healthy children or adults, or people sick with other kinds of cancer. But doctors and others who work with leukemia victims did have protective antibodies against the disease in their blood. They apparently had become infected with leukemia but were able to produce the antibodies. The experiment left the para mount question: Why were there no protective antibodies in the blood of people sick with leu kemia?

Five cancer patients who vol unteered to be a part of the study received inoculations of the virus and developed small tumors at the point of inoculation. Under microscopic examination, the tumors had the same appear ance as those induced by viruses in monkeys. An electron micro scope showed, virus particles in the cells which looked like those from monkey tumors. Dr. Ambrus said the work may have value in finding vaccines against Kaposi's disease and a new type of lymphoma, both prev alent in a large area of central Africa, because of the resem blance of viruses from those dis eases to the tumor-inducing virus. A variety of cancers in animals is known to be caused by viruses but there is no conclusive proof so far that viruses cause cancer in humans. Snowstorms Improve Summer Wafer Outlook MEDFORD (AP)-March snow storms brightened the summer ir rigation outlook in Southern Ore gon, agriculturalists were told And Karen Edens. the Waterloo girl with a fear of world destruc tion, is working on her fear "by strengthening my religious faith and my faith in human nature. When it comes to confiding fears to someone, most of your fellow teen-agers choose their mother. Others talk it out with a good friend or their "steady." Ana so you see, other teenagers also have fears. Perhaps that knowledge will help you place yours in tne proper perspective, perhaps even lick it. Good luck.

Resort Operators Trust Legislators COOS BAY (AP) The Oregon Coast Association,. an organization of beach resort operators, decided this week that state legislature can be trusted to protect the scenic beauty of the coastline. The organization approved a resolution favoring offshore oil exploration, provided that the drilling is "properly conducted, safeguarded and supervised." Delegates rejected a resolution by Jack Churchill, a member of the Coast Association's Resource Advisory Committee, which called for detailed safeguards and speci fic recommendations against pol lution. Delegates voted on the other resolutions after speakers said that the legislature had studied the matter and could be trusted to safeguard the coast's interests. A bill now before the legislature would permit offshore exploratory drilling. The bill has been criti cized by Oregon Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton. He said the bill, as it is written, does not provide adequate protection of the coast's scenic beauty.
