ever, appeared to conflict with
some studies linking air pollu-
ton to the disease.
Mr.. Haenzel is chief Of the
biometry branch of the Fed
eral Governments National
Cancer Institute in Bethesda.
He directed the survey with
Donald B. Loveland Of the
National Health Survey and
Monroe Sirken of the Vital
Statistics Division of the Pub
lie Health Service.
The Governments research
ers Interviewed the families
or friends Of 10 per cent Of all
persons known to have died of
lung cancer in the United
States during 1858. They not
only checked for a link be-
tween the victims smoking
habits and lung cancer but also
for a link between the victims
birthplace and residences and
the disease.
In every population division
whether rural or urban, they
found smoking to be consist
emily related to the incidence
Of lung cancer.
But they also found that for
eign-born and farm-born per-
sons who move to cities had
higher rates Of lung cancer
than other population groups
with the same lifetime smok-
ing habits.
No definite reason has been
established for this circum-
stance. Further research, DR.
Haenszel said, should be done
in this group. This high lung
cancer group has had less ex-
posure to air pollution and,
probably, less exposure to
viruses than lifelong city
dwellers.

Three Planes Used
The original Kills program,
being carried out by three
planes, called for studies in
aerodynamic heating, opera
tional and control problems.

personic aerodynamics, an d
problems of exit and reentry
through the earth's atmosphere.
The original goals were to
obtain information vital to
putting man in space, in con-
trollable craft, and returning
him safely. The new goals ex-
pand the program.
The Kills once made head
lines just by getting where it
did, as fast as it did. From now
on the research ships will have
to do the tricks-and turn in
a days work, too. For example:
When the X-15 is dropped by
its mother ship-a B-52 which
lifts it the first few miles into
the sky-it fires its rockets and
roars up into the sky. The
rockets soon stop and the X-15
coasts upward. like an arrow
shot toward the sun, until it
slows, drifts across the top of
an arc, and heads down.
Will Go to Work
At the top of the arc, where
pilots once admired the view
and marveled at their own
weightlessness, the research x
15s will go to work: ClamShell
doors behind the pilots seat will
open. exposing cameras or hori-
zon-scanning instruments.
Then, the Job done, the doors
will shut, and the Kills will
start its paint-scorching streak
for home and a landing on a
dry lake bed.
