Crash Near Bethel Claims Three Lives

ANCHORAGE IR-An Anchor age man, Robert H Cline. 36, was the third victim of the airplanc erash. Monday evening 30 miles south of Bethel near the Quinahak river.
 Cline, an eleetronies teehnieian employed here with the Division of Communications, vas Identified from possessions found on his body. state police officers said.
 Other victims of the crash were Lester Narozza, 28, ZKuskokWim area fisheries biologist who work cd out of the Anchorage Commer= eial Fisheries Office of the State Department of Fish and Game, and the pilot, Tom Conquest, 27, lifelong resident of Bethel.
 Officials are still investigating the fatal crash which occurred as the men were counting salmon in tributaries of the KuskokWim river. The plane had been char tered to the State Department of Fish and Game by Bethel Charter Service.
 Investigators Zreaehed. the scene yesterday after a delay caused by rainy and windy Wea- ther said the plane had apparently exploded and burned after going down in the flat tundra country with considerable impact.
 Cline, who had gone 10 Bethel only Monday, was unknown in that community where he was seen entering the plane.
 With the Division of Communi- cations of the State Department of Highways only three months, he had spent most of that time in the 1 Kodiak area. His wife and three children reside here
 Lester Varozza was also a new conner to Alaska. having joined the Deparment of Fish and Game here on May 18 He had spent most of the time in the KuskokWim area and was soon to be moved to Aniak. He made his home in An chorage with his wife.
 The pilot, Tom Conquest, was working as q mechanic in Bethel for Northern Consolidated Airlines for whom he had also flown as a bush pilot for a time The fatal flight was apparently being made on his own time, according to NCA officials here who said Con- quest had worked with the airline intermittently since 1853.

Arizona Cattleman Will StOckTWO Alaska Islands

SEATTLE tR = A family which made cattle ranching history in the southwest 80 years ago with a trail ride from Texas to western Arizona is off on another long trek.
 John Grounds, Kingman, Ariz., stockman, is leading his family in a truck caravan to Alaska. He plans to look over some islands to see if they'd make good cattle country.
 If the islands please us, he said yesterday as he prepared to leave Seattle, if they meet what we expect, then we will buy them and stock them with good cattle But we have to take a close look and see how the stock does up there'
 Grounds, whose father once had ranches in Colorado, Utah and Nevada, as well as Arizona, saw an ad in Denver Stockman's publi- cation about an island for sale in the Gulf of Alaska, so he and his wife flew over it last February. They didn't buy that island, but they liked the looks of it and the wild cattle on it, so they made plans to go back
 With Grounds on this trek is his wife, their 12-year-old twins, Rick. and Sue, another daughter, Lois, 19, who just earned her air plane pilot license, and his 84- year-old uncle, Ila Grounds.
 Grounds wagon train is bit fancier than the rigging his grand father used in driving a herd of about 1000 Longhorn steers from Palo Pinto, Tex, to the area where Kingman, Ariz., now is located.
 For one thing, this modern trail driver is towing a modern house trailer and carrying along a 1,500- watt light plant and two freezers loaded with two beeves and seven hogs.
 It's also little different from the days when his grandfather, w. F. Grounds, fought drought, dust and Indians to ramrod a trail herd through West Texas, New Mexico and Arizona and get the famed WE brand started
 For one thing, about 1,5O0 pure bred Angus cattle and many Here lords range the big Arizona spread instead of the wild-eyed long horns
 Now Grounds wants to see if the carefully nurtured purebred cattle can thrive on a new front fer

lyme activity could be explained
in all but one, they said, further
study is necessary to determine If
the LDH test can be used to diff
ferentiate between benign an
malignant conditions.
The extreme sensitivity" of the
test was demonstrated by on e
patient whose LDH activity was
only slightly elevated and who had
only small, low-grade, malignant
tumor of the bladder, the authors
pointed out.
An elevated urinary LDH activi-
ty occurs in a number of serious
kidney diseases as we'll as in
patients with cancer of the kidney
and bladder, the researchers said.
However, the differentiation of
these diseases from cancer is
easily accomplished, they said.
LDH activity in blood and other
body fluids has been used widely
in the diagnosis of a large number
of diseases, including heart ait
tacks, blood clots in the pulmonary
artery, and cancer, they said. How
ever, data from 200 patients in
dictate that urinary LDH activity
is not significantly correlated with
blood LDH activity, they said.
The development of a method of
measuring urinary LDH activity
was made possible by the dis
covery of substances that inhfbit
LDH activity which have been
found in all urinalyses, the re-
searohers said. Once these in
hibitors are removed by a separa-
tion process, they said, determina-
tion of LDH activity is as simple
as that for the enzyme in blood.
The finding of an elevated
urinary LDH activity in patients
with cancer of the bladder or kid
ney could have been anticipated on
the basis of the disturbed bio
chemistry of malignant cells, ac-
cording to an editorial in the same
Journal. Tumor cells appear to be
dependent on a chemical process
in which LDH plays a cardinal
role, it said. The measurement of
LDH activity in fluids that are in
direct contact with malignant cells
has been used previously as
diagnostic indicator, it said.
To apply this knowledge TO
urinalysis required the recognition
and elimination of inhibitors of
LDH activity which was possible
only through an understanding of
enzymatic reactions, the editorial
said. Thus the development of this
screening method is another ex-
ample of the benefits to be de-
rived from advances in dynamic
biochemistry made during the past
several decades" it said.

Simple Screening Test

was described in the curren {
Journal of the American Medical
Association.
Widespread use of the test TO
screen ostensibly healthy persons
could reduce mortality from such
cancers in much the same way as
the Pap smear test reduced deaths
from cervical cancer, according to
the Journal article.
Silent malignant tumors of the
kidney and bladder can be detect
ed by measuring the activity of an
engine, lactic dehydrogenase

Warren E. c. Wacker and Lionel
E. Dorfman, Harvard M die a !
SCHOOL, Boston, reported.
1T is clear. that diagnosis of
these cancers would be made i'm
a significantly earlier stage, with
a consequent reduction in mortal
ity, If the measurement of urinary
LDH activities were made a
routine determination on asympto-
matte individuals undergoing hos
pitalization or periodic physical
examination, they said.
Successful treatment of malig-
nant disease is influenced more by
early diagnosis than by any other
factor, they said Deaths caused
by cancer of the urinary organs
