Natural Defenses
Againc? Cancer Said
To Possibly Exist
New Yck (UPI) There
is reason to believe that na
tural defenses against cancer
. exist, according to a report
.'released today by the Sloan-
Kettering Institute lor Can
eer Research.
. The report is a review of
. recent scientific findings and
continuing investigations into
the nature of these natural
; defenses and the way they
; work.
"From this work there
seems hope admittedly still
remote of cancer prevention,
of simple accurate diagnostic
- tests, of combinations of im-
munization with chemother-
; epy, surgery and radiation,"
the report said. '
I The report cited as one of
the most important findings
. tht discovery in cancer cells
' of cytolipin H, an unusual
chemical which may make
! possible the development of
a diagnostic test for cancer.
; May Lead To Test
Researchers are trying to
find out if early human can
;cer regularly produces cyto
" lipin H and releases it into the
I bloodstream.
. If it does, a diagnostic test
for mass screening for cancer
would become a reality. It is
I believed that better methods
for detecting caneo would

group of researchers showed
that natural defenses against
cancer can be stimulated arti
ficially. They did this by in
jecting into mice cancer-implanted
material called zymo
san, which gradually dis
solved the cancers and caused
them to disappear.
It was believed zymosan
did not itself inhibit the can
cer directly, but it apparent
ly helped the mice to defend
themselves against growths.
SIoan-Kettering researchers
also have developed a vaccine
that prevented one-type of ex
perimental cancer in mice. It
protected 80 to 90 per cent of
the mice treated against a
form of leukemia caused by
a virus, the report said.

Stricter Enforcement
Of Water Rules Sought
The Medford Safety council
has called for stricter enforce
ment of the rules and regula
tions governing boating and
swimming in an effort to re
duce the toll of accidents and
fatalities.
Berry Bigham, president of
the Safety council said efforts
would be made to cooperate
with service clubs and others
in an attempt to give wider
publicity to present regula
tions. Numerous complaints to the
Medford Safety Council of ac
cidents and near accidents on
the- waters in this area led the
group to seek a solution, Big

Slick Pavement
Blamed for Crash
A wet, slick pavement was
blamed for a collision of a
state police patrol car and an
other car yesterday on South
Pacific highway.
A patrol car driven by State
Policeman Richard Henry Fin
nell, 917Vi Dakota St., Med
ford, was involved in an acci
dent with a car driven by
Ersel Winifred Stevens, 5025
South Pacific highway, ' in
front of that address.
Both cars were southbound
at the time. The Stevens car
had stopped to make a left
turn into a private driveway.
The officer approached a line
of cars stopped behind the
Stevens car and applied his
brakes. He skidded on the
slick pavement, then swung
to the left to avoid hitting the
stopped cars. The patrol car
and the Stevens car hit
broadside scraping the patrol
car on the right side. No in
juries were reported.

tion and spot enforcement was
recommended by the group at
the July meeting of the mem
bership. Enforcement agencies will
be asked to step in where nec
essary, to curb recklessness on
the water, Bigham said. Such
enforcement would not be nec
essary if those who use water
ways would familiarize them
selves with the basic rules of
water craft safety, he added.
Principle cause of com
plaints received were due to
improper handling of speed
ing boats in the vicinity of
swimmers and failure to pro
vide an observer, in addition
to the driver, when towing
water skiers.

Captives Released
By Cuban Rebels
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
(UPI) Seven of 29 American
sailors and Marines kidnaped
by Cuban rebels June 28 were
freed Tuesday night. Another
small group was expected out
today.
The first servicemen re
leased were two Marines and
five sailors. They were flown
here by two Navy helicopters
from a prearranged spot in
the hills 40 miles northeast of
the base. All appeared in good
health.
Men Identified
The two Marines were Sgt.
Charles B. Young. Jr. of Bronx

The Navy men were Valen

tery during the first week in
rebel hands but had been giv
en medicine and medical care
by the insurgents.

base said the rebels informed
American authorities "the-remaining
nine Marines and 13
sailors probably would be re

Colorado Water
Suit in Recess
Until August 11
San Francisco (UPI)
Tha Colorado river water suit
was in recess today until Aug.
11 after completion of nearly
all of Arizona's rebuttal case.
Only a single deposition re
mained to be entered on the
Arizona side. It will be taken
in Silver City, N.M., before
the trial resumes with presen
tation of rebuttal cases by
California, Nevada, Utah, New
Mexico and the federal gov
ernment. The trial has now complet
ed 123 days. More than 5,
500,000 words and 4000 exhib
its are in the record.
' At issue is Arizona's claim
to 4,400,000 annual acre feet
of Colorado river water. Cali
fornia claims 5,362,000 acre
feet. There are 7,500,000 acre
feet available for division -not
enough to satisfy the
claims of the two principals
as well as other states entitled
to a share of the water.
Corcerns Tax Rolls
The deposition remaing to
be taken concerns tax rolls
which Arizona says contradict
New Mexico's claims to the
amount of Irrigated land in
the western part of that state.
Paul L. Billhymer, assistant
attorney general for New Mex
ico, objected Tuesday to the
deposition. He said it would
not accurately show the
amount of land under irriga
tion, i
While tax assessors are le
gally required to inspect and
classify land, Billhymer said
"this viewing of land is ab
solutely a joke. They don't
do it."
In the past 11 trial days,
Arizona presented a parade
of witnesses to accuse Calif
ornia's Imperial Irrigation dis
trict of wasting 1,500,000 acre
feet of water a year.
May Amend Complaint
Northcutt Ely, chief Calif
ornia counsel, told newsmen
Arizona expected of the dis
trict a "totally impractical"
efficiency. He said if the same
efficiencies were inforced in
Central Arizona, that state
could reduce its claims by 1,
500,000 acre feet.
Before the trial resumes,
Arizona is expected to amend
its original complaint to sub
stitute new and different argu
ments to back its claim to
waters of the Gila River Sys
tem. If Special Master Simon H.
Rifkind, who is hearing the
case for the U.S. Supreme
Court, refuses to allow the

Washington (UPI) The

rights bill.
Backers of the states' rights
bill said they were in "good

aimed at keeping federal leg

state laws. Rep. Edwin E.
Willis (D-La.) said the bill
should "pass easily," possibly
late today. -
Opponents of the measure
prepared to offer an amend
ment to restrict the measure's
application to future laws
passed by Congress. The bill
as it now stands would apply
to all legislation, past and fu
ture. Trade Bill Debated
It declares that no federal
act shall be interpreted as ex

specifically says so or unless
there is a "direct and positive
conflict" between them.
