RADIO IS AN AID -..l IN CANCER STUDY
Oscillations Effective in Treat ,.ment of Infected Mice

Boston. April IS Rt-More than 100 white mice infected with cancer apparently have been cured by Dr. J.W Schereschewsky. Of the United states Public Health Service, by ap- plication of electrical oscillations Of very high frequency generated by a radio vacuum tube.
 Much experimental work remains 10 be done and many careful ohser- eations must be made over long periods before scientifically satisfac- tory conclusions can be drawn. but Public Health Service authorities arc convinced that definite progress has been made in this new phase ,o of cancer study.
 Pursuit of hobby, radio, with the scientic thoroGghness which has characterized his career in the Public Health Service, has been a vital factor in directing the trend of Dr. Schereschewsky research here, which has been conducted with the cooperation of Harvard scientists.
 The son Of an Episcopalian nais- sionary to China who rose to hlsh- opric in his adopted church, Dr. Schereschevsky is noted among scientific colleagues for an eNcep- ,ionally retentiye memory and broad scope of interests. These en- brace not only human diseases and hygiene. butt electrical engineering, to which lle had been attracted be- fore he began his attempts to solve some of the mysteries of radio. 2 After completing a term of four years in charge of the research ac- tivities of the Public Health Service at Washington, he was relieved Of that duty about six years ago in accordance with the policy of TO- tating officers in various lines or work. With the approval of Sur 2aon General Cumming. he elected to undertake a special study of can cet
 He had already tackled many in- tricate problems. including various infectious diseases, such as dlph~ tharia and trachoma, and several pha4a9 of industrial hygiene.
 p4fins about for an untried an6fe of approach to the cancer pr@6len, it occurred to him that high frequency oscillating electric al currents had not been tried and might be effective. He thoreupon set about the study of the physio- logical effects of such currents on white mice. which are particularly susceptible to what is known as rat, or mouse, cancer.
 All sorts of difficulties beset his work. When he would get together enough mice to begin his cNperl ments, an epidemic would wipe out great numbers of them and he. would have to start all over again. Even after he got the work under way, many mice. died when sub jected to various frequencies, mak- ing necessary an intricate study of the lethal eff scts of different cycles, which lungcd from 135,0oo.ooo to S.3oo. .0oo.
 Nevertheless, he has been able to ;nass a great deal of data on the subject and to evolve a reasonably successful technic in the appllca7 tion.of the currents to the mice so they can survive the treatment. He IS still engaged on that and other problems developed during the in- ycstiEatiOn.
