It had every seven yetu,7s since its premiere in 1030, "Cone With th•e Wind" had risen again. During its life span, however, "GWTW" has. undergone a meta- morphosis. On the way down to Atlanta last month foe the gala "Second World Premiere" of the• movie, a friend remarked to vien Leigh, otherwise known as Scateett O'Hara, thatsthe movie, the city, and even the mayor were the same that, in feet, teething seemed to have changed in 22 years. "Well, God, I have," said Miss Leigh, nulling grimly. She could have said the same thing for tee picture. • Miss Leigh still gets mail (from as far • away as Japan) addressed merely to "Scarlett O'Hara, Hollywood," To South- erners, Searlett and Rhett (Clark Gable) are less fictional charac- ters then flesteandablood feriae ars, as much a part of their heri- tage as grits and hush puppies, and a-s real as the folks next dioor.

In the current issue of the Journal of the Amer- lean 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 bate you, you're loathsome'." The psychiatrists believe that for a fat person to become neus rotic about his weight he must have become both obese and emotionally unstable 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 person goes on overeating. A Fourth Front Against Cancer — Science Advances Toward The Goal By DR. GEORGE E. MOORE Director, Roswell Park. Memorial Institute, (Written for News- paper Enterprise Assn.) When Breakfast Was A Real Meal What has Incense et the fora midable family brealafeets of ssore? I frequently meditate on this Matter as. I ride to the office these OhnlY mornings, ;fortified by nothing more caloric than a, hot beverage and eleYlae, have been a good' boy, an apple" My breakfast used to include one boiled egg — no toast — as well. Hut the egg seemed lone- edtrie without the company of another egg, bacon, toast, but- ter, and marmalade. So well, see drifted apart. What reawakened my interest an the subject wars the recent Johnsonian Breakfest Gather- ing" in a London hotels The 200 persons who attended were confronted with a gargantuan and, to me, mouth-watering morning menu which reportedly included a choice of: Oysters, shrimps, prawns, boil- ed eggs, mutton cutlets, beef- esteaks, 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 a beeline for the sideboard, raise the silver cover, sniff, and mur- mur appreciatively: "Ah, kid- neys!" Maybe millions actually exist- ed on toast and tea or fried bread and dripping, But my ideal Eng- listhersari always had kidneys or kippers, Didn't yours? The Johnsonian 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 count on the enthusiastic sup- port of certain children of my sequaintance, who 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. The arrival of the milkman was his alarm clock, writes Henry S. Haywerd 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 * breakfast myself, however, is on a train — which may be one reason I am so fond of trains. To set the record straight, and 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 potsens 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 hest — the patient — produces antibodies which quite rapidly destroy the anti-cancer 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 spectfic can- cers, and against viruses which cause cancer. The first faltering steps have been trade 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: Human Canner Vac vines.)' and the cancer, which was about to do him in, no longer can be found. Apparently 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 point to natural resistance to cancer. Same 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 X- rays or of the hormone, corti- eone, or by subjecting the ani- mals to • stresses such as other diseases, poisons, or extensive stzrgery. 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 Wert or what happened, it's still his- 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 Chaneing's "Show Girl" originated, ene thing was certain; the star and her colleagues — Jules Munshin and Les Quat' Jeudis had given of their talented best to history, the International Tele- meter Corporation, and their audienee in the Toronto suburb of Etobicoke. The special Sunday night per- formance on April 2 was Tele- metered to as many of Etebe coke's 5,800 subscribers as cared to pay $1.50 to see a Broadway revue that sells at a top price et $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 cornmercials. Inside the theater, six strate- gically located cameras covered the stage without obstructing the sight lines of several hundred• guests 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 earnera 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 Miss. Chancing remarked in her cur- tain speech, some day our grand- children will watch a telecast of the tape from the Maseum of Modern Art and remark: "The poor people, Weren't they tunny 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 live 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.

(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 tell, its genes .often change. In human cells, the number of chromosomes may increase from the normal 46 to 50, or 70, or 90 or almost any number. Chromosomes are bags of genes which control the in- herited characteristics of the cell and of the person. Scientists are finding that all of us have some cells with odd numbers of chromosomes. In those of us who don't develop cancer, apparently something in- side us destroys •these cells or keeps them in check so that they don't inultpily and destroy us. The surgeon and the scientist see innumerable instances of re- sistatice to cancer — and the lack of resistance. Here are some common exaMplett Patient A is shot through With Cancer. The surgeon re- moves the original tumor; but he leaves numerous cancerous masses in other areas of the body.

A basic French dressing for salads contains 4 ingredients — oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Sometimes a little garlic is add- ed. One part vinegar and 3 pates oil are often used, but for some tastes only 2 parts of oil to I part of vinegar is more agreeable. Add to this hard-cooked eggs, anchovies, chopped onion, ch,,Ip- ped chutney, tomato catchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, cheese, chopped olives, capers, fruit juice, homy, chopped green pepper, chopped red pepper, or chopped parsley for the dressing you like.
