MEPFORD M TL TRfBUXE. MEDFOKU. OREGON, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 1, 1935. PAGE ELEVEN EOF PARTIAL SUCCESS Doctors Coffey and Humber Explain Treatment With Extract - From- Sheep Glands Figures Given By WEN DEL BIRCH (United PrM Staff Correspondent.) SAN' FRANCISCO, Nov. 4i (UP) satisfactory treatment of cancer with out recourse to surgery, one of the moat controversial lsauea in modern medicine, waa- reported to the Amer ican College of Surgeon today by doctors Walter Coffey and John Humber. Reviewing reaulta achieved by ad ministration of an extract known as "Aiipra-corcln." Coffey and Humber Raid that of 1040 cases classed as hopeleas. approximately 52, or five per cent, showed sufficient recovery to be clawed a "clinically clear." Their announcement came exactly five eara after "supra -core in" flrat was described by the two San Fran cisco physicians as a possible cancer treatment. Work Argued Long. For years heated argument has centered over their work. Thousands sought treatment from them, while other surgeons and physicians decried the possible results. . In cold figures, Coffey and Hum ber showed that of the 1040 cancer sufferers treated over a period of three to five years, each of whom received 30 or more Injections of supra-corcln. 839 or 84.9 per cent died; 50, or 505 per cent dropped out of touch with the physicians, but were considered still living; and 108 or 10.38 per cent remained In con tact with the doctors. In thin latter group were the 53, or approximately five per cent of the total number, who were considered "clinically clea:" with malignancy of the tfiaexw ar rested. Sheep Furnith Evtract. Supra-corcln Is an aqueous extract made from cortex, the outer portion of the adrenal glands which sit astride the kidneys lt&? two small cocked hats- Sheep glands furnish the common source of the extract. It la the Coffey -Humber theory that an inadequacy of cortex In the human system leads to canc(oua growths. They offer the example of two pipe amokera, aach of whom through con stant years of inserting and with drawing a plpestem through the lps bruises or depresaes the sensitive cov ering of the labial surfaces, creating what Is called medically a "trauma." One, with a sufficiency of cortex In the adrenal gland, la able to Vaake off any development of a malignancy. The other, lacking sufficient cortex, develops a growth of abnormal cells or tissues on the Hps which la called cancer. The San Francisco experimenter Coffey, a white-haired kindly man of the "family doctor" type, and Hum ber sharper featured and the precise aclenti it believe they can arrest that abnormal growth through the use of the sheep extract. Based on Experiments. Their conclusions were based on methodical experiment which follow ed their controversial announcement In the California and Western Med ical Journal of September, 1930. In the period'their clinic received 751S case which had failed to re spond to surgery, x-ray or radium treatments. Hundreds of the group were so far gone that they died be fore Injections could be given them. Other hundreds expired before the required 30 doses were administered. $1 Days Specials FALL FELT HATS Saturday and Monday COSTUME SLIPS Saturday and Monday LACE BRASSIERES Saturday and Monday 2 for..

They were divided into four groups, covering the number of years they had undergone treatments. 1010 In uruup. There were 1040 In the five-year group, of which 883 died. 50 who sur vived dropped from sight but pre sumably are alive, and 103 are def initely known to have overcome the malignancy or arrested It.

Outside the clinic room a woman asked this correspondent whether he wanted to see one of the patients who had undergone five year of treatment. "I'm the person," she said. "Look at me." She was as rotund and jolly as a Dutch farmwife and looked as healthy as the winner of an Iowa "better health" contest. The extract, she said, is Injected through the veins In the arm. She takes two treatment a week and 1 continuing them, although she con siders her cancerous growth com pletely arrested. In his address. Dr. Coffey reported the Incidental development of a new form of cortex, now being developed In the east for use in treatment of glaucoma, eye disease, and of Addi son' disease, which may turn the skin of a white person to a deep cop per color. The form developed in the Coffey Humber laboratory Is said to be more powerful than any now used, but they withheld definite report on It until they had experimented further.

HOLLYWOOD Filmland 'a foremost mutual admiration society member fhlp two apparently has disbanded with the separation of Barbara Stan wyck and Frank Fay. The brunette star who always signed her name "Barbara Stanwyck Fay" and insisted on being "Mrs. Fay" rather than "Miss Btanwyck" has rung down the curtain on ft seven-year drama of marriage which waa unique In Hollywood. Many filmland couples have broken matrimonial bonds when both hua band and wife hit the profeasional skids; many others have been unable to stick together through the perils of glittering equal success. But the Stanwyck -Fay combination seamed to survive that most dangerous ot movleland domestic crises: . success for one while the other was falling. Both the star and her red-headed, freckle-faced husband of the lancing wit have known the heights but not at the same times. He ftr-ored First. Hollywood remembers well the Irony of their situation wrier, they first became film figures.

Frank was popular comedian and master ot ceremonies. .Hollywood called Fran for talking pictures, and Barbara, the devoted wife, came along. 'She too went Into pictures one picture. She was not a hit. But Frank became a star, Bar bara used to sit on the sidelines. watching him act, boosting him. and yet observers could discern that she was hurt over Hollywood failure to use her too. Frank, meanwhile, boost ed Barbara's stock. And finally her chance came. Frank Capra, maker of stars, directed her In "Ladles of Leisure." Barbara Stanwyck became a star for producers to fight over. While hie wife climbed to con tracts and fame, Frank's star fell. And with their positions suddenly reversed. Barbara's loyalty became a "true love story" of Hollywood. Adopted Child. A dramatic star, she took to the stage with him between pictures, played "straight" to his gaga, did nlp-ups and cartwheels as part of his aot and talked Frank Fay at producers constantly. Her interest in his personally produced starring film, made Independently, was greater than In her own pictures. They adopted a child Dion Fay. now aged 3 and were mutually de voted to the youngster. Rumors of domestic trouble were denied so con sistently by Frank that Hollywood was Inclined, considering the record, to give him credence, especially when he persisted in dentals while hla wife confirmed the reports. Fay's Insistence that all was well la at tributed to his hope for a reconcilia tion. Professionally, both seem "set" for the Immediate future. Miss Stanwyck has a new R-K-O contract, and Fay has made a "comeback" at his old studio, Warner Bros. I v'.-A-"--.; .... . . I f , $4 v . V W x V- f " f fcv .J 7-:' 4 ...
