New Successes In Treating Cancer Are Told
To Specialists At International Congress
Bv ALTON L. BLAKESLEE

SAC PAULO, Brazil Up - Two
highly encouraging new successes
in the treatment of some kinds of
human cancer were reported at
the sixth International Cancer Con-
greSS.
One is surgery-plus-X -ray
treatment of cancer of the breast,
the most common form of the dis
ease among women. The technique
is saving about half the patients
early, the congress was told.
The second is a new drug giving
at least temporarily-normal life
to a number of sufferers from
several forms of cancer.
The surgery -plHs-y ray method
was described by DR.. Robert Nc
Whirter, radiologist and surgeon
of the Royal Infirmary at Edin-
burgh, Scotland.
This method, used since 1941,
surgically removes only the in
fected breast but avoids cutting out
a part of the chest wall, armpit
and neck to remove lymph nodes to
which the cancer probably already
has spread.
Those affected areas are treated
by X-rays daily for three weeks,
beginning 10 days after. the sur
gerry. This method thus avoids
severe mutilation of the body and
some complications from surgery
or X-rays.
McWhirter said go per cent of
the women treated by the con-
sentative combined method had
survived for at least five years. A
five-year survival is usually re-
garded as evidence of a cancer
cure. He said 48 per cent had sur
vived 10 years. All were women
whose breast cancers were re-
garded- at the time as suitable for
operation.
Even on cases considered insult
able for help by extensive sur
gerry, McWhirter said 80 per cent
were alive five years after the
combined treatment and is per
cent were living normal active
after 10 years.
Encouraging success through use
OF the new drug thioTEPA was
described by DR.. Jeanne Bateman
of George Washington University.
Washington, DC.
She said high percentage of
patients with cancers of the oya-
ries, breasts and the worst form
OF brain cancer had achieved good
results, enabling them to return to
months of useful, active life so
Tar. The drug often produces tenn
porariy good results in other
forms OF cancer, she added.
Describing results with the first
"a patients tested, DR.. Bateman
said the drug works best if in
Jected directly into the cancer. The
drug even then manages to 90 to
work on cancers in distant parts
OF the body begun by cells wan
derlng from the original site.
The drug is not a cure, DR..
Bateman cautioned, but It has sue
ceeded in keeping some patients on
their feet and useful until nearly
the end of their lives.

tempt to take out on me his
spite against the entire female
sex. Georgia x.
ANSWER: A girl has little
chance of reforming a gambler
or a drunkard. Any young lady
who sees either of these two
traits cropping up in a boy
friend or fiance, should unhesi-
tatingly break off the friendship,
or engagement.
I have printed many letters
from wives of alcoholics, and you
draw a very dreary picture Of
existence with a gambler. Your
husband doesn't need a wife for
companionship or love: he full
fills his needs with his boon
companions at cards. and with
the horses who run to give him
afiluence or a fiat wallet for the
day.
Since there is practically no
chance Of altering your mans
habits. either you build a life for
yourself around his alterations,
or leave him. In the former case,
you acquire friends. take up hob
bies or get into social groups that
will fill your time.

DEAR MISS NISSEN: Before
] married, three years ago, ]
knew my husband liked to
gamble but it never occurred to
me that it was an absolute
obsession with him.
While we were on our honey
moon, he left me the third day
to spend his time-and money,
of course-at the race track.
Then although we were supposed
to stay away two weeks, he had
to return the first Saturday for
his weekly card game with the
boys. And it has been SO ever
since. Cards and horses-these
seem to be the only things he
lives for. This summer he
announced that we were to spend
our vacations apart could go
where I liked, but he planned
two weeks Of attending races.
He seems to have no interest
whatsoever in me. He rarely
takes me out, and, when he does,
he seems bored through the en-

life is as q housekeeper. He was

Traditional stuffed whole lamb

the feast last night which
marked the climax of the sacri-
fetal holiday of the Moslem
world, Ed al-Adha.
Ed al-Adha is the day OF the
Great Pilgrimage Of Thai" to
the holy city of Mecca where
Moslems from all over the world
meet in a spirit of community
and brotherly love to worship
the Creator. It is also the day
when those who have been
blessed with more than their
need of worldly possessions make
charitable contributions to the
less fortunate.
Members from the diplomatic
missions of the Moslem coun-
tries stationed in Washington
and their friends were among
those celebrating the holiday at

DEAR MISS NISSEN: A friend
Of ours died recently shortly after
diyorcing his wife. Now she is

divorced wife, although they

full name. We feel she is very

matter more to be ignored than
