If best ravs mhgitohgi im$ beer ; IN COUNTY SCHOOL- Cheryl Crane, 16, above, : daughter of actress Lana ; Turner, has been placed in : the El Retiro County School for Girls. Cheryl has been a ward of the court since 1958 ; when a coroner's jury ruled ; her stabbing to death of John ; ny Stompanato was "justifi '. able homicide." Judge Allen T. Lynch told UP! the surprise step was taken on the basis of recommendations from the I juvenile probation depart ; ment. Cheryl had previously ; been in custody of her ma '. ternal grandmother, Mrs. Mil : dred Turner.-(UPI Telephoto) Standard Cancer I Test of Food Additives Urged Wariiinjton- (Science Serv : ice) A. group of experts has suggested standard tests for food additives that may cause ; cancer im man. ; The Jood Protection com ' mittee of the National Acad emy of Sciences-National Re search council began studying the problem of food additives and cancer in 1956, long be fore cranberries and chemical ly fattened chickens came to public attention. A review of completed tests and a realization of the prob lems involved prompted the committee to suggest three long-term tests for evaluating the cancer-producing powers of food additives: Surface Application 1. Continuous feeding of various levels of the test sub stance to rats and mice for their normal life spans and to dogs for at least four years. 2. Repeated surface appli cation of various amounts of the test substance to the skin of mica for the normal life span. 3. One large, under-the-skin injection of the test substance n mice and extended obser vation of the animals. The committee's report, "Problems in the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Hazard from Use of Food Additives," which has just been released i here, showed that up to 1953, I some 516 compounds had been reported as tumorigens (agents ' which cause benign or malig- nant tumors). Of this number, s 40 fell into the "not' proved" I category. Controls Inadequate ;; "Not proved" compounds ' were designated because, in many cases, they had been ' tested only once, the controls . were inadequate or the tumor ; had not been examined to ; see whether it was cancerous : or not. I More than 450 compounds I did show acceptable evidence of tumorigenic activity. Al- r most half of these belong to one chemical structure group, the polycyclic aromatic hydro- tardons. j Various species of labora- t tory animals react different I ly to these and other tumori- ; gens. As a result, through no : fault of their own, research w o r k e r s sometimes tested I compounds on guinea pigs t when a more sensitive and - accurate test could have been made on mice. The committee's suggestions ; are designed to help elimin- ; ate such mistakes in the fu- ; ture. Included in the report ; is a discussion of the relative : sensitivities of lab animals. ; Fireman Veteran In Maternity Cases Atlanta, Ga. - - Michael " Pajewski, a fireman, can of ; fer advice to young, nervous I physicians. : Pajewski has handled 31 : maternity cases - people who : were outdistanced by the I stork on their way to the Lus ". pital.
