Dying of Cancer;
‘Not Frightened” ,
DENVER; (JP)—How would you
feel if you had only a few weeks
to live?
That’s all Mrs. Marie Tennyson
can expect. The attractive, 37
year-old woman has a cancer.
• . *• - «,.* * v < ;. •
1 “I’ll say one thing—I’m not
frightened at all,” she said today.
! MI feel I’ve had a very fuU life,
and it was fun while it lasted.
“•People often exclaim over how
calmly I’m taking ft, and I look
at them and think, ‘Well, gee, you
might die before I do*.”
“A lot of people who go out for
a Sunday afternoon ride are tak
ing a greater chance than I am.”
Mrs. Tennyson was a secretary
j in a Fairbanks, Alaska, clinic when
j she discovered a lump on her
I breast a year ago Christmas. She
( had an operation, but the disease
had spread into her glands.
X-rays showed later that it had
; invaded “every bone in my body.”
Death will come when the disease
strikes a vital organ.
“It’s at the stage where it can
go anywhere,” she said.
Mrs. Tennyson has schooled
herself not to think about things
like the outcome of the cold war,
or how next fall’s fashions will
look.
“If I died at the age of 90,
there still would be things I would
be missing,” she said.

“Would breaking up big oil companies affect national defense?”
t
Mrs. Mari e-Louise Auer. Pasadena housewife, writes: It seems to me like a
w 9
bad time to be tampering with our industries, as the antitrust lawyers want to do.
Or does it matter? Would breaking up big oil
companies affect national defense?”
Here at Standard, one of the seven West
ern oil companies under attack, we see
clear public benefit in having big com
panies in the business at all times. Wc
believe we serve you well. But let’s con
sider now just “bigness” and defense:
Today, military needs come
first: Just recently, need for
aviation gasolines jumped
275’% in the West albne. Big
Oil companies supplied it.

As one big company, we paid
