Cancer Society Here Active During Year (Editor's note: This is an other in a series of articles concerning agencies which are served by contributions to the United Medford Crusade). The Jackson county commit tee of the American Cencer So ciety is active throughout the year in work to combat the disease. Part of the work is education al in nature, but in addition there are other tasks, such as making bandages. Funds for this work come from the United MedfJrd Crusade. Medical Research Donations to the UMC which are turned over to the cancer society are largely for medical research and for educational purposes regarding the nation's number two killing disease. In addition, during the past several years many Jackson county resi dents suffering from cancer have received financial help and medi cal guidance through the work made possible through the Unit ed Medford Crusade. Cancer Is slowly being con quered, but the program is be ing measured in the lives of chil dren and of the millions of others stricken by the disease. Research is the slow, methodi cal testing of theories, the grad ual combination of information, the experimental use of new drugs, new methods of surgery, and new applications of radia tion techniques. Deaths Resulted Last year 80,000 deaths re sulted from cancer. Today can cer frequently can be cured by arly detection and prompt treat ment Tha American Cencer Society hat urged all dults to have an annual checkup, and women over 35 the semi-annual "Pap" smear test. This procedure has already helped cut the uterine cancer death rate by one third It could be cut by at least an other third, if all women over 33 had the twice-a-ycar test, the society said. Cancer affects two out of three families, the society said.

Since becoming top man in the :- life of Eliza- fa e t h Taylor, he's given up cigars. And he also is plan ning a sub dued, digni fied premiere of his tail no tion picture. This news Aline Motbr may be un settling to the Broadway cronies of the busy, fast-talking maker of "Around the World in 80 Days." For more years than thry remember, Todd had been puff ing away on 15 cigars a day (at $1 each). And his promotion and showmanship for his Broadway stage productions have been splashy. But never underestimate the power of a woman. Todd now calls himself "a dignified-type man." Smoking Stopped "I've stopped smoking cigars Some women don't like them." said Todd with a happy grin dur ing an interview before he and the beautiful Liz took off by plane for New York. She'll be' on his arm for the world opening Oct. 17 of "Around the World In 80 Days." one of this year's epics that ad vance word predicts will be a boxoffice blockbuster.

Only what happens on the screen will be important. No parade. Balloon Rumor "There was a rumor the bal loon we used in the picture might be floating above the theater but that's not true. It might be in the Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York, where it belongs. "This is not a movie, but a show that happens to be on film. We're on the drama pages, not the movie pages, and our ads are the size 'of those for plays. "AH that ballyhoo at pre mieres the Play's the Thing! The movie starts at 7 o'clock. I don't care if Marilyn Monroe and Diana Dors are doing head stands in the lobby, the show goes on at 7." Todd even disdains to discuss the budget for his extravaganza that was filmed in 14 countries Chicago dJ.R) An elite dairy herd, worth some S4 million, is producing only grade B milk at the International dairy show.
