Find Blood Test
For Cancer
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., (/P)—
A new blood test is 98 per cent
accurate in detecting the presence
of cancer, four researchers have
reported.
The test is one of a half dozn
new ones, all based on finding
that cancer does something to hu
man blood.
The hope is that this test, or
one of the others, will help solve
one .of the most serious problems,
in human cancer. This problem
is finding the people with cancer
early enough to cure them by sur
gery or x-rays, the two standard
cures now.
The next test was described to
the American association for can
cer research by a team of four
scientists from the University of
California at Los Angeles, and
the Veterans Administration hos
pital in Los Angeles. They are
Drs. H. S. Penn, George C. Hall,
A. H. Dowdy nad A. W. Bellamy.
The text mixes human blood
serum with an extract from the
livers of people who had cancer.
The test indicates cancer if solid
particles form and the cloudy so
lution becomes clear. .
It was tested on 4,500 people.
The official name of the Mor
mon church is the Church of Je
sus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Trailer Too I^arge
For Parking Lot
FAIRBANKS, (/P) — Mr. and
Mrs. James Post of Seattle have
only one housing problem in
crowded Fairbanks.
That’s finding trailer parking
space large enough to accommo
date the $5,000, 35-foot luxury
trailer they towed 3,000 miles up
the Alaska Highway.
The Posts arrived Saturday
with their de luxe trailer, said to
be the largest ever towed the full
length of the Alaska Highway.
One trailer park owner said he
planned to make changes so the
Posts’ vehicle could be connected
to plumbing facilities.
The Posts reported a rough trip,
but no trouble except for two
flat tires and wearing out three
sets of chains. They said they
were held up two and .a half days
at Canadian customs for permis
sion to enter the Territory, and
were delayed another 60 hours at
Mason Creek by deep snow.
They left Seattle March 29,
planning to open a restaurant
here.
The Gold Dust Mining Co. will
| be operating the Fox Bar Dredge
1 this summer which was purchased
t at sale here during the winter. In
charge of operations will be Jack
Bullock who left last week for
| the camp at Council.
