(UPI) Sunlight Claimed Factor in Cancer CHICAGO (UPI) - Suntan ners take warning. The Ameri can Medical association reports that "several converging lines of evidence" indicate that ultra violet rays in sunlight are an important factor in producing certain types of skin cancer. The A.MA said studies show that: About 90 per cent of skin can cer is found on exposed areas, principally the face; skin can cer is rare in Negroes, who are protected by pigmentaion; in the United States, there is more cancel- in southern states where there is more sunshine; and skin cancer can be produced in mice 100 per cent of the time by using ultraviolet light. However, a single overexpo sure to sun cannot cause can cer, said AMA, although it may cause scarring or pigmentary changes. It takes long years of being outdoors to produce any danger from sunlight.
