Research Projects
Claim Large Sums
From Cancfr Fund
Mrs. Otto Steinke, Morrow
county chairman for the current
campaign of the American Can
cer society, was advised today
that the society allocated $3,200,
000 to various cancer research
projects throughout the United
States in 1948.
Mrs. Steinke was informed that
the research allocations from
funds raised by the society in
1948 were completed recently
when 205 applications for grants
in aid and 45 applications for fel
lowships were approved.
Details of the grants-in-aid
have not been publicly announc
ed as yet, Mrs. Steinke said, but
indications are that some Oregon
scientists will participate. There
are several promising research
projects undei way. in Oregon
and it is reasonable to believe
they will receive help from the
society, she stated.
It was pointed out that the so
ciety's funds for research were
so limited it was possible to sup
ply only 44 cents for every dol
lar requested by the scientists in
1948.
Oregon's quota in the society's
campaign this month is $130,145,
and Morrow county has been ask
ed to raise $400.00.

WHILE THE
COAST SLEEPS
Hundreds of telephone people in the
West keep night patrol to help meet
emergencies and keep service reliable

1. Darkness can't stop these telephone men
as they begin an important emergency cable re
pair at night. Fortunately, these emergencies are
not common . . . usually can be repaired in
daylight. But, up and down the Coast, other
telephone people burn midnight oil regularly
... so your telephone will work for you when
you want it.
iil -jlVil IE fW
2. One important night-time job is done by
this electronic tester. It checks lines to make sure
they're in good shape. At the same time, other
telephone men are vacuum cleaning and inspect
ing sensitive switching equipment . . . you might
. say it's stopping trouble before it starts. And
night is the best time to do it, while most tele
phone users are sleeping.
4. The real value of telephone
service is made up of many things.
A call may be urgent ... or it
may be routine. But telephone "
people, night and day, work to
keep service good and make it
better. Result: A more valuable
servant for you . . , and a big
bargain. In these days of higher
prices on most things, a few pen
nies still buy a telephone call.
3. In the quiet hours of the night operators
handle relatively few calls . . . but many of them
are vitally important. Repairmen arc on call for
service on important lines . . . doctors, hospitals
and the like. Garagemen check and equip trucki
for the next day's installation rounds. Building
service workers make offices spic and span . . .
all a part of providing reliable service to you.
