Cancer Deaths In
 Rural Areas High
c6nnecticut Study Shows Women Harder Hit; StOm'
 ach Intestine Worst Sites

uanesx mortality in Connecticut
 MARher among women than men, ig 1eath Eats E greater in the rural Nseflons, end almost 50 per cent qf fhg mortality cones from cancers in tha inaccessikIe sites of the stomach and the Intestinal tract
 These are conclusions reached in a statistical study of cancer mor- &lity being undertaken by the Di- vision of Cancer Research, organized in the State Department Of Health only within the post two years through legislative action in 1935. Tho study and its conclusions are discussed in the departments cur rent monthly bulletin by Herbert P Hinsehe, research statistAeian of the division.
 Heaviest mortality for both sexes is after the age of 65. Rurel areas of Connecticut have from IS to % percent of their population over 65 years of age as compared to ip- dustrial areas with from five to eiRht percent. This distribution is due in part to the gravitation of young adults brought up in the rural sectors from agricultural to industrial pursuits in the cities. Both Hartford and New Haven counties being essentially industrial are not. linduly burdended with wide variations in cancer mortality. TAirfieid county, although indus trialized along the seaboard and at Danbury, has excessively high rates iia the rural areas centered arouiad Monroe and Newtown. Similarity Iitchheld County shows high rates except in the industrial areas around Toryington and Watertown. Windhan1 county, essentially rural has the highest cancer rate of any county In the state. Middlesex and New London counties with the ex- ception of New London and Ston- inRton show uniformly high rates along the seaboard, while Holland county is almost too small to cone sider statistically.
 Records of cancer mortality by site for 8 five-year period, during which Connecticut,s cancer deaths have totaled more than 1000 each year, show the lethal qualities of cancer of the stomach and intes- tional tract, but unfortunately, from both a preventive and curative stanpoint such sites, being inac- Cessible, constitute a most baffiing problem. On the other sand. sites such as the bnccal cavity, female genitaiia, breast and skin, contri- putting about 30 per cent of the total mortality, are accessible and con- stitute 2 group which is both pre- yemtablo and curable. It is toward these sites in particular that msas- vrss of control are directed in the hope of ultimately reducing the -dTtality.

men due to prevalence of such types of the disease to which wO- men Gione are subject. The ratio does not remain constant, however, when rates are computed for the various age groups. Between the ages of 26 and 6S, the female rate predominateS but after that 1t is exceeded by the male. The apparent reason, MT. Hirsche says, is that among females during the active child-bearing ages of g to M years cancer of the uterine cervix and breast begins to exact an iiacreas- ing toll of lives which reach Q peak just prior to the age of 66. Simil- arly, among men mortality from cancer of the genito-urinary organs, primarily of the prostate and bladder, reaches 9 peak at about 70 years, accounting for the higher rats among males In the upper age brackets. There exists evidence, however, that in certain localities the trend among females is begin- ming to level of while that among males continues upward.

WIT OF PIANIST
 SAVED HER LIFE

New York, March 23.-(UP)- Mrs Elizabeth Maranz, 33-year old pi- anist, matched persuasion and promises against the lust of a half- crazed negro, and won. She thankfully attributed the fact that she was convalescing to-day from abrasions, bruises and shock instead of being dead, to the 1S- minute contest of wits with handy man in her uptown Manhattan apartment.
 Her assailant was described as Al Sylvester, 30, who had been work ing about the apartment building for a month. He escaped. The negro attacked Mrs. Maranz while her son was at school and her husband, also q pianist, was playing at a hotel. He came into the apartment and struck me on the head. They struggled. "You are young. Why kill mea Let's talk it over," she told Syl- vester.
 She met frequent blows and threats of death with promises to see the man later, to give him her ring. to pay him.
 Finally he accepted s4 and fled
