IT say that a lot Of opera

be more concerned with their

hour to save a life" telephone
her at MU. 1-5110, or call the
headquarters of the Cuyahoga

"Today the appalling truth is
that one in four of us will de-
velop cancer. Each day saved in
achieving total cancer control
will save 700 lives"
Today one in three cancer pa
tients is being saved, due to
early detection and better meth
DDS of treatment. 1t could be
one in two, the chairman added.
Getting life-saving facts into
homes in Greater Cleveland is
one of the objects of the Crusade.
Thousands owe their lives to the
devoted men and women who
wage the house-to-house educa-
tional and Embarrassing campaign
to prevent needless deaths.

Metro Plan Of
Phone Calls Is
.DiaIer Savings

The introduction Of Ohio
Bells cleveland Metro Call
ing Plan" last Sunday gave
residence and business custom
ers throughout the Willoughby
area what may well be the most
significant improvement since
the dial telephone itself.
No other large metropolitan
center in the country at this
time enjoys limitless local call
ing privileges over so large a
suburban area. The plan COM
bines II large exchanges cover
ing over 500 square miles into
one huge local calling area. In
addition, the inclusion of Will
loughby's 10000 or more tele-
phones into the metro" call
ing area, brings the total num-
Der of phones each subscriber
may reach without extra charge
to more than 100000. This ad-
vancement was completed at a
cost of more than So million.
The changes are certain to
effect considerable savings for
subscribers who heretofore
have made numerous or lengthy
calls into Cleveland and the
rest of Cuyahoga County. This
will result from the complete
elimination of all timed mes
sage unit charges on calls to
any point as far west as Bay
Village. The same changes also
apply on calls to Painesville.

to learn what is the real Ameri-

Hiroshi mentioned the 10O
years of friendships between
his country and the United
States, marred by a wartime
interval, but despite which, he
said, the japanese hold Ameri-

set for mid-May and details
