Delo Smith These expe riments were in the category of "basic science," in this case, the basic natures of cancer cells. They indicated strongly (but not positively, of course) that par ticular experimental cancer does not contain individual cells which are naturally "resistant" to irradiation. Thus, by the process of elimi nation, you are justified in rea soning that the phenomenon of "resistance" which prevents ir- radiation from being a sure-fire weapon against cancer, has to be due to two other possibilites. Either irradiation "mutates" few cells in the millions of a cancer ous conlony into "resistant" cells or irradiation so changes the chemistry of the body containing the cancer that individual cells are made "resistant." Must Perfect Weapon As "basic" knowledge this re sult of the experiments could be most helfpful. No one should permit himself to think some thing big is about to be done about curing cancer. But you are justified if you keep in mind that all weapons have to be perfect ed and irradiation as a weapon against all kinds of cancer often works but is a long way from perfection. The experiments pere per formed by Drs. Alan D. Conger and Helen J. Luippold in the Oak Ridge, Tenn. National Labo ratory. They experimented with the Enrlich tumor which is an experimental cancer of mice era THU MIDGET PRICES THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, & SUNDAY FANCY TOMATOES 14-oz.

It is one of the best known of "labora tory" tumors. The tumorous mice were kept in the irradiation beam for radio active cobalt-60 giving off gam ma rays, for 23 hours a day over a period of weeks. The total daily doses were relatively low by desgin; the Enrlich tumor is highly "sensitive" to irradia tion. Permit Cell Takeover The experimental design was to permit naturally "resistant" cells to take over if they exist ed in the cancerous conglomera tion. Every experimental detail was aimed at "maximizing" this take-over. If it had happened, all the naturally "sensitive" cells would have been killed by ir radiation prolonged over weeks; the pre-existing "resistant" cells would have multiplied in the usual way and. ...eventually the entire cancerous formation would have been "resistant." But it didn't happen, and though the cancerous formations were slowed down in their growths they were not stopped. Therefore and presumably some thing other than "natural" re sistance of some cancer cells to irradiation was preventing ir radiation from eliminating the cancers. In their report to the technical journal, "Cancer Research," the scientists made preliminary ef forts to fit their new tile into the mosaic of existing know ledge, but were chiefly interest ed in giving their colleagues everywhere a chance to work at fitting it in. This new tile may some day and somehow complete a meaningful, useful picture. For Chrisimas BRIDAL DOLL WARDROBE 9092 FOR DOLL I4--22 TALL Printed Pattern that's evry little girl's dream.

Sorts of Stocks is for Birds If You're Small Guy r By ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor New York OPi Diversifica tion of your portfolio buying of all sorts of stocks is for the ll7l"S;,i birds if you're a small invest or, according to Henry Gel lermann of the brokerage firm of Bache & Co. "The largest number of stocks that can be supervised Elmer Waizer effectively and intelligently," he says, "is prob ably five." He'd accept three. Bellermann's views on this an gle of stock trading are carried under a chapter heading, "Put All Your Eggs; in One Basket," in his new book just published by Thomas Y: Crowell Co., "How to Make Money Make Money." The autho3r holds that one cannot possibly have an intimate working knowledge of more than a bare handfml of companies, and "it's a lot easier to select three or four good, securities than 20 or 30." He cites such men as John D. Rockefeller, Standard Oil, Henry Ford,' Ford Motor Co. and Alfred P. Sloan Jr., Gentral Mo tors who did right well by put ting all their eggs in one basket. Answers Qu.estions The books goes into all angles of investing and explains and de fines stocks, bonds, debentures, the Stock Exchange, how trades are made, how to select a brok er, and answers just about any question the small and large in vestor could think of asking. Gellermann, who writes the advertising 'for his firm and handles its public relations, has a facile pen and a knack of mak ing clear the intricate details of high and low finance. The book contains some home by expressions among the advice to little fellows in the market place. "It's been my belief," says the author, "that far more money has been lost in the securities market by the rigorous applica tion of pure foolishness than by fraud and deceit. The man or woman who is determined to be a sucker inevitably will be a sucker, and all the laws and good advice to the contrary." Many Safeguards Hence a great many safe guards have been installed to save these investors from them selves. The author details them, tells investors where to get in formation and markets, and ex plains why stocks go up and down. He's done some research on the market and on stocks from Wall Street houses.

Also there are thousands of pages of special reports. And there are the daily newspapers, the financial papers and maga zines, bank reports, the Stock Exchange magazine and so on and on. If you read 'em, digest 'em, evaulate 'em you'll be able to buy sound stocks for sound rea sons, he says. HE GOT AWAY Syracuse, N. Y. (IB Police man Thomas Stassi and John Bozzutto reported they stopped and questioned and then released a "suspicious" motorist. About 15 minutes later the police radio flashed a report that the man had robbed a service station, minutes after the officers ques tioned him. China's mainland population, estimated at over 82 million, in 1953, is increasing at the rate of 12 million a year. A BAD DAY Syracuse, N. Y. OB It just wasn't Policeman Eugene Sweeney's day. His motorcycle had backfired and caught fire. Patrolman Roy Cooke, driving a patrol car, raced to Sweeney's aid. But the car's trunk compart ment, where the fire extinguish er was locked, was stuck. By the time a fire engine arrived the fire had destroyed the motorcycle. Use M-T Classified Ads 1 Finoct Gasoline Use Any Oil . Credit Card "On the Point" S. Riverside & S.
