The 18.000 persons who filled the Garden to near-capacity Fri day night brought total attend ance at the 56 sermons Graham has preached there so far to 1,002,000 Previously, the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus held the attendance record, as well as the record for the longest stay in the Garden, but Graham has broken both. The circus in 1947 lasted 40 days, compared to Graham's 56 so far. and drew 785,813 persons. Graham said his crusade had won its place in New York, citing the fact that 30,622 persons have recorded "Decisions for Christ" since the crusade began May 15. Friday nignt, bus persons wem forward to make "decisions" and "acknowledge their sins, repent and declare their acceptance of God." "I believe thi crusade Is worth more to New York than any prize fight," Graham said, as he faced spotlights in the huge sport arena where million-dollar box ing matches are staged. He made a fourth appeal to his listeners to help finance his cru sade to save New York, which has been budgeted at over a mil lion dollars.

He said that the amount of radi tion in such out dust is only a fraction of that which a man gets when he has h i s teeth x- rayed. He said that if the great government experts thought that testing bombs would do harm to the people of the world they would not be doing it. The physicist reminded me that every minute, day and night, there is a stream of ex tremely powerful cosmic rays pouring down upon us from outer space, and this radiation we seem to stand all right. He evidently felt that while we have this constant stream of radiation hitting us, there is lit tle sense in fussing about a little fall-out. According to a report last year from the National Academy Airlines Granted Over-Pole Routes Washington (in President Eisenhower has authorized the permanent grant of a trans-polar air route between the West Coast and Europe to Pan Ameri can World Airways and Trans- World Airlines. Pan Am also received a 2 year temporary authority for polar route flights from Port land, Ore., and Seattle, Wash., to Europe. The permanent route author ized Pan Am and TWA to use Los Angeles and San Francisco as co-terminals on the West Coast. The two lines will be competitive on the run. Three foreign airlines are au thorized by treaty to serve the West Coast over the polar route. One of them, Scandinavian Air lines System (SAS), began serv ice between Los Angeles and Europe in November, 1954. In addition, British Overseas Airways Corp. (BOAC) has re ceived CAB permission to serve San Francisco and London over the pole, but has not yet inau gurated service. The German airline Lufthansa has treaty authority to operate between either San Francisco and Los Angeles and Europe, but has yet to receive a go-ahead from the CAB.

Mayo Foundation of Sciences our most august g r o u p the ."background" of radiation which we all have to meet in every 30-year period is about 4.3 roentgens (units of radiation). The amount we get from x-ray studies over the years is - about 3 roentgens. The amount from test of atom bombs will probably be about 0.1 ro entgen (the amount we get off a radium dial on a watch). The Medical Research Council of Great Britain last year calculat- ed the "fall-out" over 50 years as from 0.02 to 0.04 per cent of; the radiation we get constantly from "natural sources." Obviously, then, there is noth-1 lng here to get excited about. The British recently pointed out j the curious fact that in their country the men who are excit ing the people to panic over the "fall-out" never protest the fact that Russia is setting off five bombs a year. This does not bother them. What bothers them is that Great Britain has set off two bombs a year, and America, at the time of writing, had set off six in a year. Cobalt 60 and Cancer in the Abdomen Dr. John H. Maus recently re ported at Quebec City that with the help of rays from a rotating cobalt bomb life can be made more comfortable for some pa tients with cancer of the stom ach, pancreas, gallbladder and colon. The results were impres sive in a few instances, but, un fortunately, not curative in the majority of cases. OVER! tan STARTS TODAY W8ffiS6?kk ALAN LADD : &trV$ SOPHIA CLIFTON AJ ,,'-Jf .
