RedStone Rocket Stands On Launching Pad - Awaits Space Flight

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. R- The Redstone Rocket which the United States had hoped would boost the first man into space stands on a launching pad here. The Soviet Union beat it's firing date by at least two weeks.
 "So close, yet so far com mented a technician who is help ing groom the Redstone to send one of Americas astronauts on a short suborbital flight, hopefully late this month or early in May.
 ''If we hadn't had those troubles last fall and on the Chimp and Little Joe shots this year, we might have made it. the techni- clan said.
 But you have to give the Russian scientists credit. They've accomplished a remarkable break through.
 Project Mercury officials had hoped to achieve a manned Red stone flight last December or January. A series of launch mis- haps necessitated d d Ii onal launchings to qualify the system.
 Dr. Hugh Dryden, deputy director of the National Aero nautics and Space Administration, told the House Space Committee in Washington yesterday that the earliest possible date for the manned launching is about April 28.

the warning signals until it's just too late for cure.
 The facts are that an annual health checkup saves money and anxiety in the long run. Early detection can save your life as we'll as your savings. A clean bill of health, which is what the vast majority of people get from their doctors, brings peace of mind and an end to nagging fears.
 One-third of all cancer patients are now being saved. One-haf could be saved by earlier detec- tion and prompt, proper treat ment.
 Convincing people of these facts isn't easy. People tend to cling to ingrained thought habits.
 That's where the mass media comes in. They can help save lives. They can take this mes sage into every American home. They can help wipe out the bar riers of transformation and let the new, optimistic knowledge about cancer grip the minds and hearts of MT. and Mrs. America.
 Much has been done. But so long as 85,000 people a year die needlessly of cancer, much more remains to be done.

Like lIlOSl peOElc, u dlWdy thought of cancer as a disease that happens to the "other fel- low" until two years ago, when it l happened to me.
 How did I react?
 With disbelief, horror, haste. In that order.
 The doctor advised surgery He said: "The sooner, the better"
 There are no two ways about cancer. Either you destroy it or it destroys you. So I didn't de- lay.
 Unfortunately some people are not informed or are so para lyzed by fear that they permit the cancer to destroy them. They have a horror of cancer that makes them avoid the family doctor until it's too late for cure or which even sends them on wretched journey to quacks, charlatans and purveyors of fake remedies and home cures that can't possibly help them.
 Without a single research ad- vance, without any new develop ments in diagnostic and treatment methods, the doctors could, actu- ally, save 85,000 more cancer patients a year than the 170,0O0 they arc now SaVino
 The American Cancer Society tells me that those 85,000 people have the kinds of cancer that can be cured by prompt, proper treatment. Their lives depend on knowing what to do - and doing it without delay.
 Improved communications could save them.
 Now this is an area I know something about, after 32 years in radio and TV.
 What is required is an all-out effort through all the media against the fear, ignorance and superstition which each year kill 85,000 people needlessly men ana women whom medical know ledge can - should - and must save.
 There are barriers to overcome One of them is a belief in black magic and mumbo jumbo that is not confined to the underdevelop- ed areas. It exists right here, in the USA; not in the back hills and remote areas alone, but often in our big cities, and, surprising ly enough, even among some educated and intelligent people. Some of these men and women believe that certain foods or iv- ing habits can afford protection against cancer.
 Now a certain amount of fear is healthy and necessary for self preservation. That's the kind of fear which leads a man or Wom- an to heed cancer warning sig nal and brings him or her to the doctors office without delay. But there's another kind of morbid, neurotic fear which leads to self destruction. It keeps people who are worried about possible cancer symptoms away from the doctors office.
 These morbid fears wear many masks.
 There's the rationalized indif- ference to cancer - an indif- ference based on terror. Some people simply refuse to have an annual health checkup or to learn the simple facts about cancer that can save their lives. That's the ostrich type, who prefers burying his head in the sand to looking facts in the eye.
 There's the hale, hearty type who passes up the annual check up because he or she never felt better" and if symptoms should | develop, this brave individual cits

The champion 2-year-old filly
of the Delaware Park racing
season is due to be crowned
Saturday when a large and lus-
trous field is anticipated in the
$4,000 added Polly Drummond

This five furlong speed test,
