Mavn Foundation m Si CANCER QUACKS A letter comes in from a man who says that, on going into his public library, he found on the list of recent acquisitions, a book put out to advertise the doings of a man who claims that he can cure cancer. My correspondent was told that Waiter Alvarri XniS DOOK naa been sent free to libraries all over the United States. He went to the librarian and protested gainst the use of the institution at an advertising medium for a man whose treatment has been denounced as a fake by the health authorities of the United States Government. After some study, the librarian withdrew the book. There are quite a few cancer treaters who mean well and probably do not suspect that they are doing harm. I am sure that they think they are doing good with their ancient prescrip tion. For instance; a woman writes to say that, two years ago, her father had a brown spot which came on his neck and be came scabby. The father would pick off this scab but soon a new one would form. Then, an ulcer started to grow and later this turned into a lump. By then the man realized that he had cancer, but instead of consulting a physician, he went to a woman in the neigh borhood who has a paste with which she could eat out cancers. After applying' the salve as a poultice, the big lump came out, leaving a nasty hole in the man's neck. Because the salve didn't get it all out. a year later the man died of cancer scattered throughout his body. This Is a beautiful example of what happens when people who have cancer go to a lay person Instead of to a physician. If this man had gone quickly to a phy sician and had had the little ulcer burned off with hot sparks, or cut out in a few min utes neatly and cleanly with a knife, he would have had no rea son to lose his life. Also, he would have had a neat little scar instead of a big hole. There is absolutely no reason today why anyone should submit to the use of an old-fashioned arsenic paste. I doubt if in the last 75 years any able physician has used such a paste. He- has had no need for it. People with cancer who fear the knife should remember that a small ulcer or nodule can be cut out painlessly under local anesthesia; or it can be burned off painlessly in a minute. The physican can see what he is do ing, and hence can get out all of the cancer with the least loss of skin. With a paste, one can not tell if one is getting out all of the cancer, and one is pretty sure to leave an unsightly scar. Chorea, or St. Vitus Dane The common variety of chorea comes in childhood. As most per sons know, the child gets the fidgets: often the patient is a girl who starts twitching and moving her arms convulsively. She can not sit still. Usually her trouble clears up after weeks or months. The child should be treated with ! kindness and affection because 1 she can't help what she is doing. She should be examined bv. a physician to make sure that she hasn't a tendency to rheumatic fever and perhaps the heart dis ease often associated with it. Sedative drugs may cut down on the amount of jumpiness and ir ritability. Children who have had chorea often remain more than normal ly nervous for months or years. (Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate, 19S6) Testing of Atom Sub Is Delayed Washington (U.R) Dockside testing of the new atomic sub marine Seawolf will be delayed "several weeks" because of leaks in the craft's steam super heat ing equipment. The Seawolf is the Navy's sec ond atomic sub. Rear Adm. A. G. Mumma, chief of the Navy's Bureau of Ships, said Thursday night the difficulty "did not involve any injury to personnel or other material damage, nor did it in volve any nuclear radiations." Mumma said the trouble de veloped during outside tests of the atomic submarine's propul sion plant at the Groton, Conn., yards of the builder the Elec tric Boat Division of General Dynamics Corp. He said the builders and the Navy still are trying to track down the exact cause of the difficulty. He said all available evidence 50 far indicates that materials used in the steam equipment were "in accordance with specifications." Mumma 'said the defective equipment is not part of the craft's nuclear engine itself but is used to obtain higher steam efficiency. "The work necessary to cor rect this situation will extend the time for completing dock side testing of the Seawolf by several weeks," the admiral said. Dockside trials precede actual sea trials. Navy To Draft 300 Doctors Next Month Washington U.R) The De fense Department has requested I selective service to araii juu doctors next month for the ivavy. The department announced Thursday the physicians, plus those who volunteer, should en able the armed services to meet their needs for doctors through January.- The department s last request for doctors was May 16 when Selective Service was asked to draft 380 for the Navy in July. The first inter - collegiate ' sports event ever held in Ameri-1 ca was the Harvard-Yale boat race at Center Harbor on New j Hampshire's Lake Winnipesau- j kee in 1852. I Boston Symphony Gels Thunderous Reception by Reds Leningrad (U.R) Two-thousand enthusiastic music lovers gave the Boston Symphony Or chestra a thunderous reception Thursday night at the first for eign symphony heard here since before the Revolution. Conductor Charles Munch took four bows after playing Beethoven's Eroica (3rd Sym phony) and was unable to resist demands for an encore some thing the Boston Symphony rarely does. After playing Walter Piston's Sixth Symphony and Ravel's Daphne and Chloe, the orchestra gave an unscheduled perform ance of Duka's Sorcerer's- Ap prentice. The audience applauded for several minutes. Stop Members Hundreds of Russians unable to obtain tickets for the concert milled in the streets outside the marble - columned Great Hall Conservatory. Many halted or chestra members after the pro gram to ask, "Why don't you stay here longer and give more concerts?" Munch opened the program with the Soviet national anthem and then told the audience that the program included no Rus sian compositions because it would be improper to show the Russians how Americans per form Soviet music. Grigory Rabinovich, conduc tor said the performance was "tremendous." Kurt Sanderling, associate conductor of the Lenin grad Philharmonic Orchestra called it "a wonderful concert." Moscow Radio said the pro gram was "a great success." Agency Predicts Rise in Car Prices Detroit (U.R) A Detroit sta tistical agency predicts the 1957 model low-priced cars will go up an average of SlOO-plus at the factory retail level. Wards Automotive Reports said Thursday that "this pros pect was unofficially confirmed by two of the Big Three car producers." The increase, which would be "more sizable" on higher-priced cars. Ward's said, "is more se vere than those predicted fol lowing recent steel contract set tlements and reflects the cost of radically new styling plus further increases in material and labor expense." Auto industry spokesmen re fused comment on the predic tion. They said prices of the new models would not be decided upon for a few more weeks. ; Ward's said the price In creases "mirror the auto indus try's premise that each year there must be something new for the customer greater value or lower price." ' It said the auto builders ap parently expected the price boost would not hurt sales of the new models since "a $100 4 LB. Tree Ripened J. H.

Saginaw, Mich. (U.R) Strange things are happening in the garden of Mrs. Bernard B. Schumann.

The seed which is nature's way of carrying on life, inherit ing the old and passing on the new, is a never-ending sources of wonder. Consider: A lotus seed, found in the bot tom of an extinct lakebed in south Manchuria, retained its spark of life and sprouted and flowered and bore fruit 1,000 years later! The orchid seed is only a 5 billionth as large as that of the Seychelles coconut! The aver age size of seeds, however, is about that of a kernel of wheat. Like seeds, flowers differ greatly in size: duckweeds which grow in ponds the world over, have flowers so small you can hardly see them; yet Rafflesias which grow in the dense forests of Malaya, have flowers up to 4 feet across! A single ragweed plant can shed 8 billion pollen grains in 5 hours. A tassel of corn may pro duce up to 50 billion pollen grains. If a bee visits a rose first, say, it will generally continue to visit only roses for the while thus spreading the pollen from rose to rose and not from a rose to a thistle where the rose pol len would do no good. Tomato plants grown in green houses do not have many toma toes unless the plants are shaken when the stamens are shedding pollen or the pollen is collected and blown over the plants. The reason? There is little wind and few insects in a greenhouse to carry the pollen around. To help sprout, some seeds with hard coverings grow in halves as in the walnut, and when they are wet they split along a line that nature makes weaker than the rest of the shell just ' for this purpose. Other seeds like the coconut, have a special place, like windows that are weaker. It is now possible to grow tomatoes without seeds and with more "flesh" by spraying the blossoms with certain chemicals. Corn has been "babied" by hian for so long that it can now Here's a tip for anglers in spring and fall, fish usually in habit shallow water. In summer and winter they tend to move into deeper water. price advance means perhaps a mere $25 down payment in crease. The car buyer in recent years has come to deal more in such terms than in specific car pricing." By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Natural ill seldom seed itself as other grains like wheat and rice can do. If the corn plant would drop its heavy ears at the foot of its Stalk, the kernels would lie there, unable to spread them selves.
