Published an extended article on
"Cancer; How We Stand Today
on Research and Treatment.” It
covers the progress made in
many research laboratories in
the United States.
One paragraph of the article
ig of particular interest to Exe
ter people as it refers to the
work of an Exeter Old Boy, Dr.
Hugh J. Creech, and shows an
excellent photo of him at work,
The paragraph reads:
"At the Institute of Cancer
Research, Inc., in Philadelphia,
Dr. Creech and his colleagues
have for several years been ex
perimenting with complex sugar
produced by bacteria. These
powerful sugars will cure the
cancers of some mice, hut
are so toxic that the large __
used in mice will kill as many
animals as they cure, in tests of
human beings, the multiple
sugars used in safe doses only,
cause remissions of cancer
growth for a few months.
Now the Philadelphia scien
tists are attempting to produce
sugars that will have less
ty and greater effect on
growth.”
