In :Knoxville, Penn,, 1100. people • had to be turned away the first night. This month. ids ready seen by 00,000 Allentena, it had infiltrated every major Southern city, and in mid-May it ;would be heading North. As it had ,every seven years since • its premiere in 1039, "Cone With. the Wind" had risen again. • During its We span, however,, "QWTW" has undergone a meta- morphosis. On the way down to Atlanta last month for the gala, "Second World Premiere" of the movie, a friend remarked to Vt.- vien Leigh, otherwise known as Scarlett Oliera, that the movie, the city, and even the mayor were the same — that, in fact, nothing seemed to have changed in 22 years.. "Well, God, I have," said Miss Leigh, smiling grimly. She could have said the same thing for the picture. Miss Leigh stilt gets mail (froni as far away as Japan) addressed merely to "Scarlett O'Hara, Hollywood." To South- erners, Scarlett and Rhett (Clark Gable) are less fictional charac- ters than flesh-andeblood famili- ars, as much a part of their heri- tage as grits and hush puppies, and as real as the folks next door. In Atlanta, several .people told producer David Selznick that they had met him when he was filming there, and that sueh- and-such a house,. which he used. in the Movie, was still standing; this was awkward ,for Selznick, since he .shot the movie entirely in Hollywood; At Southern cos- - ttune parties, an almost standard figure is Aunt Pittypat, a lesser character whom most Northern- ers remember 'with 'difficulty. Some devotees .have seen the movie 60 times. For all its familiarity to its fans, the most common reaction among those Who see it more than once, including Miss Leigh aged 20 to 64, to find out: Are fat people neurotic about the way they look? In the current issue of the Journal of the Amer- ican Dietetic Association the psy- chiatrists offer their finding: Three-fourths of the, heavy- weights who were interviewed looked upon their fat selves with relative equanimity. But the remaining obese peo- ple were in bad emotional shape, "Just looking at myself in a store window makes me feel terrible," a 300-pound man said, "I just look at myself and say, 'I hate you, you're loathsome'." The psychiatrists believe that for a fat person to become neu- rotic about his weight he must have become both obese and emotionally u n s t a b l e during childhood or adolescence, and his parents must have poked fun at' his avoirdupois. Only prolonged psychoanalysis will help. The reason: Neurotic feelings of self- loathing. are constantly being re- newed by every glance in the mirror—and in a fury of self- punishment, the fat perscin goes on overeating. Bernard L.

A Fourth Front Against Cancer — Science Advances Toward The Goat When Breakfast Was A Real Meal What has become of the fOr- midable family breakfasts Of yore? I frequently meditate on this matter as x ride to the office these chilly inornings, fortified by nothing more caloric than a hot beverage and maybe, if I. have been a good boy, an apple. My breakfast used to include one belled egg -- no toast — as But the egg seemed lane- some Without the company at another egg, 'anon, mast, but- ter, and matmaleele. So well, we drifted apart, What reawakened my interest In the subject was the recent "Johnsonlan Brealefest Gather- ing" in a London hotel. The 200 persons who attended were confronted with a gargantuan and, to me, mouth-watering morning menu which reportedly included a choice of: Oyeters, shrimps, prawns, boil- ed eggs, mutton cutlets, beef- teaks, kidneys, tongues, ribs of beef, turkeys, squabs, teal, game pie, muffins, baked potatoes, rice, and cheese. I am surprised kippers were not mentioned, but especially pleased to hear about the kid- neys. Somehow to me, English country life of a generation ago was epitomized by the drawing- room play in one scene of which the characters were bound to come downstairs in the morning in scarves and blazers, make tkeeline, for the sideboard, raise the silver cover, sniff, and mur- mur appreciatively: "Ah, kid- neysl „ Maybe millions actually exist- ed on toast and tea or fried bread and dripping, But my ideal Eng- lishman always had kidneys or kippers. Didn't yours? The ,Tohnsonian breakfast was the idea of actress Edana Rom- ney, who is campaigning here to revive the tradition of the hearty morning meal. I know she can cesupt pn the entneesiastic sup- ;cart of certain aildren of nlTy acquaintance, w h, o r ec ently munched their way from Boston to St. Louis and back on a star- vation breakfast di et of pan- Cakes, waffles, and kindred diehes. And during the Christ- mas holidays, a boy I know re- gularly assuaged the pangs of hunger by having a big bowl of cereal before his parents arose. e arrival of the milkman was leis alarm clock, writes Henry S. Hayward in the Christian Sci- ence Monitor. A substantial. British break- fast nowadays is likely to in- clude porridge, kippers or plaice, bacon or sausage and egg, toast or rolls, and marmalade. The only place I ever encounter such a breakfast myself, however, it on. a train — which may be one reason I am so fond of trains. To set the record straight, and By DR.. GEORGE E. MOORE Director ' 'Roswell Park Memorial Institute, (Writtin for News- paper Enterprise' Assn.) NNW cancers within the foreseeable future may be controlled or cured (but not prevented) by vaccines made from cancer cells or cell components. I believe that other human cancers may never respond to this treatment be- cause either they resemble nor- mal cells too closely for anti- bodies to form against them, or they produce potent poisons which suppress the body's forces of resistance, It is barely conceivable that the patient's own healthy lymph nodes or a well person's lymph nodes, which have 'been remov- ed and incubated with a portion of a patient's cancer, may be transplanted to the patient and. will destroy his cancer. This has been done in animals with occa- sional success. A great draw- back to this technique is that the new host — the patient — produces antibodies which quite rapidly destroy the anti-caecer lymph node transplants from an- other person. In the last 10 fast-moving years, great strides have been made in the field of cancer im- munity. Animals have been vaccinated successfully against specific can- cers and against viruses which cause cancer, The first faltering steps' have been made in efforts to cure terminal cancer patients with' vaccines' Made from their own tumors. While no miracles have been achieved, the results warrant expanded study. Perhaps the next 10 years will bring even greater progress, (NEXT: Etunia.n Cancer Vac. cineS.) and the cancer, which was about to do him in, no longer can be found, Aptearently something in his resistance to the infection overcame the cancer as well. There are bits of evidence -- some seen every day in a busy cancer centre — which paint to natiaral resistance to cancer. Some of us take it as a good sign when we find that the pa- tient's cancer is surrounded by, and his blood loaded with, the cells and substances which pro- tect us during infection. These include, white blood cells which eat up invading viruses, and germs and antibodies which des- troy the infecting "bugs." When a cancer patient does not develop a fever or show other signs of resistance to an infection or when, as has hap- pened in a few experiments, he will accept and grow a skin graft from another person, we know that his outlook is most unhappy. Healthy people over- come'infections and reject grafts, We can depress animal resist- ance to infection, tissue grafts and cancer transplants in several ways — with large doses of rays or 'of the hormone, cortie tone, or by .subjecting the, anis mals to stresses such as other diseases; poisons, or extensive surgery. The big problem is to raise resistance, If this can 'be done, cancer, May be beaten. It is likely that some human "No matter how bad we were or What happened, it's still hiss tory," said Carol Channing in an amiable curtain speech follow- ing the first "live" telecast of a current Broadway entertainment to a pay-TV audience. From an orchestra seat in the Eugene O'Neil Theater, where the broadcast of Miss Channing's "Show Girl" originated, one thing was certain: the star and her colleagues — Jules Munshin and Les Quat' Jeudia — had given of their talented best to history, the International Tele- meter Corporation, and their audience in the Toronto suburb of Etobicoke. The special Sunday night per- formance on April 2 was Tele- metered to as many of Etzen- coke's 5,800 subscribers as cared to pay $1.50 to see a Broadway revue that sells at a top price of $7,50. What they got was a full performance of "Show Girl," complete with pre-curtain lobby interviews by Faye Emerson. There was an intermission, but no commercials. Inside the theater, six strate- gically located cameras covered the stage without obstructing the sight lines of several hundred gueste of the management. We in the auditorium were remind- ed of the special nature of the proceedings by batteries of blaz- ing lights and the neatly printed signs on each camera which read: "Please do not look at the cameras," With no microphone booms visible, the atmosphere of a. regular performance was, how- e v e r, satisfactorily simulated, writes John Beaufort in the Christian Science Monitor, Technically, the telecast of "Show Girl" probably compares with early talking picture ver- sions of stage plays. As Mite Charming remarked in her cur- tain speech, some day our grand- children will watch a telecast of the tape from the Mese= of Modern Art and remark: "The poor people, Weren't they funny in those days." Meanwhile, it can. be recorded that the principal losses to the Telemeter subscribers were the absence of colour (which can be remedied) and the limited num- ber of camera angles employed, The rewards were the spontane- ity and immediacy of a 1 i ve show. These elements Would, of course, be missing in rebroad- casts from tape, The airing of "Show Girl," which probably cost something more than $100,000 to produce, is the second of a series of new programs being prepared by Jean Dalrymple for Internation- al Telemeter Corporation, a divi- sion of Paramount Pictures, for its Etobicoke subscribers. Here- tofore, with the exception of a three-night "live" and Video tape appearance by Bob New- hart, the comedian, the pay-TV programming has consisted of first-run movies and sports.

Get Neurotic Over Your Weight II BUFFALO, N.Y. — (NEA) — A lot of things cause cancer — radiations from-the ground be- neath 'us and the sky - above; chemicals in the air, food, water' and drugs we take, perhaps even the substances our bodies pro- duce. Some• viruses may cause cancer. Everybody is exposed to can- cer-causing agents but only one in four people comes down with the disease. Three don't. Of those who do and are treated for it, one of three is cured. It is quite apparent that some people have great resist- ance to cancer; others are very susceptible to it. Between these two extremes, the rest of us - probably have varying degrees of resistance and susceptibility. When' a normal cell becomes a cancer cell, its genes ,often change, in human cells, the number of chtornosomes may increase, from the normal 46 to 50, or 70, or 90 or almost any number. Chromosomes are bags of genes which control -the ins limited characteristics of the cell and of the peraon. Scientists are finding that all of us have some bells with odd numbers of chromosomes. In those of us who don't develop cancer, apparently something in- side us destroys these cells or keeps .thern in cheek' so that they don't taultpily and destroy its, The surgeon and the scientist see innumerable instances of re., sistance to tenter — and the lack of resistance. Here ate some venation examples:: Patient A is shot through with cancer. The eurgeon re- moves the original tumor; but he leaves numerous cancerous masses in other areas of the body, To his and the patient's surprise and delight, 'the cancer colonies throughout the body shrivel up and disappear, The patient may live several years, seemingly without cancer, be- fore the disease reeure arid kills the patient. Patient lr seems to have Only A small,. slow.growing, localized _canter. The surgeon rertiolts it and, for good measure all the adjoining tissues to which it flight have spread, TO his dis. may, hidden colonies come to life, spread rapidly and soon kilt the patient. Patient- C is the most remark- able — aft(' unfortunately the rarest — of hll. In the last stages of cancer, he develops art acute itifectieni, and fat a kW daYS. his life hatige by a thread. He recovers front the infection "I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror this Morning," a Man who had long been over- weight told the psychiatrist, "I was surprised how fat I have become." Boasted another fat man: 'I'm a good-looking guy." These responses May conic as a surprise to many weight- conscious people. Yet they aren't. unusual.
