 FIGHT ON CANCER

BERKELEY, Calf, Dec 3.-One of the nations great scientific ma chimes, the University of California Cyclotron, will be diverted from helping develop Americas military might to a peacetime war against cancer and other malignant di- seases.
 Prof Ernest O. Lawrence, famous Nuclear scientist, yesterday an- ncunced a new program of research centered around the recently-re- built and more powerful atom smasher, which produced the first plutonium for atomic bomb deyel- opment.
 We are about to point the way toward the cure of certain kinds of cancer. That does not mean we will be able to cure all kinds of malig- nancy, but we hope that in a few years we can show signifant per- centages of success in the treat ment of some varieties Lawrence revealed to newsmen viewing the Cyclotron for the first time since 194l.
