"The way to find cancer is to have
somebody look for it when you don't
think it's there"
Dr.. Calvin T. Klopp, director o1
the Warwick Memorial Clinic fol
Cancer and Allied Diseases at Gar
field Hospital, went on to explain
"If cancer is found early enough
there is a very excellent chance OF
cure. There may be no symptoms
in the early stages. The function
of a cancer prevention clinic is te
find signs of cancer before symptoms
are evident"
Such clinic has been in existence
in Washington since last December
Known as the Garfield Ladies Aio
Cancer Prevention Clinic, it is a
new branch of the Warwick Clinic
which has been operating at Garfield
Hospital for some time. Cancer is
not treated in the prevention clinic
Treatment is handled by another
division. The clinic exists for the
purpose of detecting cancer. 1t is
not necessary to be referred by a
doctor to secure an appointment.
Since it's doors opened, about so
persons have been examined, and
there is at present a waiting list
of $50. Two definite cancers have
been found in women in an early
stage, the patients have been re-
ferred back to their family doctors
for advice on treatment, and there
is definite hope of cure.
The examination given at the
clinic is a complete one, including
a blood test and x-ray pictures
of the chest. 1t also includes the
Popanicolou Test, the test which
can detect cancer of female repre-
ductive organs in its earliest stages.
The test was developed by patho-
logist at Columbia University, and Is
considered good, but not infallible,
in discovering cancer in the lsymp-
tomless stage The test is simple
to administer, but requires time and
a competent person to read" it. :.

planned DR.. Klopp, docs not differ
