the new X-ray machine to strike
out cancers-a 24-million electron
volt betatron-was unveiled yes
terday by Memorial Center for
cancer and allied diseases.
The betatron is IL times more
powerful than the most powerful
conventional X-ray machines.
Doughnut-shaped, it is the first
designed specifically fO. cancer
treatment, and is the second in
the country to be used for medical
research. The University Of Illi-
noiS has the first.
The machine is in a new four

tron building designed for treat
ment Of cancer patients and new
research along many lines to step
up cancer cure rates by solving
problems of X-ray and surgery
treatments.
Completion of the SIS million
unit was announced by Laurence

Official dedication ceremonies will
be held Tuesday.
The betatron whips electrons
around in doughnut- shaped vac
uum tubes to nearly the speed of
light, and produces X-rays when
the electrons strike chunk Of
platinum.
The powerful X-rays penetrate
deep into the body to hit cancers
not reachable by surgery or other
