TV in Review By WILLIAM EWALD United Press International NEW YORK (UPI) — There's really only one formula for a TV situation comedy: round up some grownups and some children. Then have all the adults act like children and all the children act like grownups. Peck's Bad Girl, a situation comedy which curtsied in on CBS-TV Tuesday night, is certainly no worse than other TV offerings of the genre and, in some ways, a good deal better. It owns players of skill in Wendell Corey, Marsha Hunt and Patty McCormack. It is on tape rather than filmi which gives its surface the near-clarity of a live picture. And it displays occasional spurs of non-doltishness. Nevertheless, off the evidence of Tuesday night's opener, I would say it falls into the miammal pit of most of TV's family comedies. Father is a research physicist, but even so, acts like a bit of a bumblehead. Mother is less coniving and anti-man than most TV mamas, but she seems a little bit too simple-minded and one-dimensional to be quite real. As for the daughter, played by young Miss McCormack, she is strictly from Mars. Tuesday night, Miss McCormack essayed the role of a 12-year-old who fell in love with her art teacher and pursued him with all the wiles of a 17th Century courtesan. Well, well, practically — after all, this is a family show. The proceedings were implausible, the resolution of the problem unsatisfactory and the dialog excessively arch. Battle Lines Drawn in Milk Pricing Fight SACRAMENTO (UPI)—Battle lines were drawn today in the field of milk pricing—a battle that probably will result in either a milk price war or "the worst lawsuit you ever saw." That was the opinlog of Assemblyman Carl A. Britschgl (R-Redwood City), a dairyman and milk distributor himself until recently. Britschgl said the fight was over a measure (AB2319) by Assemblyman Carley V. Porter (D-Compton) which would eliminate special low milk rates at drivein stores and require them to charge regular retail rates. The first major hearing on the measure is scheduled Wednesday before the Assembly Livestock and Dairies Committee. Britschgl said he felt the issue could not be resolved in the Porter bill, although he called it "the big farm bill of the year" and said it was being lobbied heavily by farm groups, distributors and retailers. Safeway Plans Disclosed "If the driveins win and keep their lower prices, Safeway and a few others will set up their own drivein stores, sell at cut rates to meet competition and get us into a beautiful milk war," Britschgl said. "It if goes the other way and the retailers win, we will have the Garden Grill On Cancer" By Dave Nelson Cancer! This word strikes as much fear in the hearts of people today as rumors of the plague did in the middle ages. In those times people feared, because they knew that death was an almost certain consequence and that escape was next to impossible. The plague was highly contagious, spreading with the same impartial ferocity as a horde of locusts across fields of Mid-Western wheat. Corpses lay piled-in the streets and medical aid was nearly impossible to receive; not only because doctors lacked the knowledge to treat the disease, but also because they feared contact with infected persons. Friends and relatives abandoned the dying, and the dying was not easy. Pain came, and fever. The stench was said to be unbearable. Cancer is not contagious, how ever, cannot be spread through contact. It is a disease like any other in that it is not a God visited punishment for a wayward life. It is a self-sufficient . . . "new growth of tissue of an unknown basic cause. It is endowed with tremendous growth energy and lacks the growth restraint which characterizes normal tissue." If its latter stages it is often painful. It is the second largest man killed in the world. It also attacks plants and animals. But what exactly is cancer an how does it work? As for the daughter, played by young Miss McCormack, she is strictly from Mars. Tuesday night, Miss McCormack essayed the role of a 12-year-old who fell in love with her art teacher and pursued him with all the wiles of a 17th Century courtesan. Well, practically — after all, this is a family show. The proceedings were implausible, the resolution of the problem unsatisfactory and the dialog excessively arch. I will concede that somewhere in this nation there may be 12-year-olds who pursue grown men and unblushingly invite them home to meet their parents, but if there are, I don't think I really want to spend a half-hour watching them. Except, maybe, under a microscope. Short Shots: Mike Kellin and Will Kulava pitched a couple of solid performances into Tuesday night's ABC-TV Naked City, but that plug sneaked in via a parked truck for a publicity-hungry Pennsylvania department store was pretty cheap ... Tuesday night's Cheyenne on ABC-TV was a rather galumph-footed attempt at humor ... Despite the competence of the replacements for the vacationing Jack Paar, the NBC-TV Paar Show needs Paar's presence badly—without him, the program lacks push and fire. The Channel Swim: Elvis Presley's manager, Tom Parker, has closed a deal with ABC-TV which will see Elvis' star in one spectacular year for an undisclosed number of years. Elvis' first ABC-TV spec will take place after his discharge from the Army in March and Parker's original plans to spot Presley in a closed circuit theater telecast are now out. Peck's Bad Girl will surrender its time spot after 13 weeks to a new crime series, Undercover Man, which stars Mike Connors ... Jason Robards Jr., Roddy McDowall and James Donald have joined Don Murray in the cast of CBS-TV's May 25 special, "Billy Budd." CBS-TV's Phil Silvers Show will start its reruns on June 26 and the network will beam out the show for the last time on Sept. 11 ... CBS-TV has assigned a writer to turn out a script of a proposed new Jackie Gleason series about a hot shot public relations man ... NBC-TV will beam out the last Thin Man show on June 26, replacing it on July 3 with Western reruns. Safeway Plans Disclosed "If the driveins win and keep their lower prices, Safeway and a few others will set up their own drivein stores, sell at cut rates to meet competition and get us into a beautiful milk war," Britschgil said. "It if goes the other way and the retailers win, we will have the worst lawsuit you ever saw," filed by the driveins, he said. To settle the fight, Britschgil introduced a bill Monday to repeal the Desmond milk price law and to eliminate the fight by cutting out the minimum prices. He said the measure would not affect prices paid to dairymen under the so-called Young Act, but it would eliminate wholesale and retail minimum prices, throwing the market into free competition. Other Farm Bills Listed Other farm bills introduced Monday—the last day for regular bill introductions—would: —Provide for a 160-acre limitation on irrigation water delivered to each landholder from state water projects (AB2861 O'Connell). —State that eggs and poultry meat stamped with the name "California" would be assumed to be produced here unless the label plainly indicates otherwise (SB1390-1391 Rattigan). —Lavy an in-lieu tax of .1 percent against barley in place of the present personal property tax (SB1453 Miller). —Create the California agricultural labor resources committee of 13 to study all matters relating to farm labor (SB1469 Fisher).

State Files Big Suit To Protect Fishing SACRAMENTO (UPI) — The state has launched court action against the California Oregon Power Company to protect fish life in the Klamath River. The power company will be asked to equalize the peak loads of water runoff to avoid large fluctuations which alternately flood and dry up the river downstream.

No attacks plants and animals that exactly is cancer and so it work? The irritant theory is further borne out by studies done on occupational cancers. These occur in persons who, in their daily work, are subjected to various chemicals and dusts. Roentgenologists and persons who use X-Ray in their work frequently develop cancer from the cumulative effects of exposure. Dye industry workers who are exposed to analine, benzedrine, or betanthyline have been found in subsequent years to develop papilomas and even cancers of the urinary bladder. Respiratory tract cancers are often found in those who are subject to the inhalation of chrome salts, asbestos dust, and nickel arsenide. The chemical compound covered in heavy smokers. Smoke is an irritant in its own right, and has been found through chemical analysis to contain certain coatings which when painted on the skin of mice produce carcinomous (malignant) lesions. Medical men are convinced that there is a direct relationship between heavy smoking and caner, despite the strictly logical criticism that what causes cancer on the outer skin of rice will not necessarily cause cancer on the throat and lungs of human beings. There are many variables involved. Despite these variables, it is known that cancer of the lungs, throat and mouth occurs with significant frequency among heavy smokers. This is FACT. Whether heavy smokers are persons genetically predisposed to the diseases is not known or really of especial importance. The FACT remains unaltered.

Respiratory tract cancers are often found in those who are subject to the inhalation of chrome salts, asbestos dust, and nickel arsenide. The chemical compound attacked the white blood cell producing bone marrow. Irritation Irritation may consist also of very subtle internal inequalities. A chemical imbalance may result in a cancer, and a virus may so upset the normal functioning that the disease results. This has led scientists to conclude that no one is completely safe from developing the disease. This leads to the question, is cancer inheritable? Doctors say no. No acquired characteristic may be passed on to offspring through the genes. The most important factor, however, is an hereditary predisposition towards it. Mice with the disease have been inbred to develop strains in which cancers appear throughout succeeding generations. Whether this is due to a genetically transmitted bodily weakness or a virus which is carried by the genes is unknown. It is therefore cautioned that persons whose families have had cancer victims tell this to their doctor when undergoing tests for the suspected disease. How is cancer treated? The most popular method is through surgery. The greatest successes have come from the operating room procedure, although X-Ray, Radium, hormones and radioactive isotopes are used with some success. Often surgery and one or more of the other methods are used in conjunction. Radiation treatment has been limited because it destroys white blood cells, as well as platelets, those bodies responsible for clotting. Reason To Smile — Be tionary work in bone marrow Nathaniel B.

Is it led in the air like the bacteria, no evil spirits take possession of victim, a belief still widely held in the so-called civilized nas. Doctors are in agreement it is not the latter reason, have found the disease unimpassed by the ministrations of healers. there are many theories to accent for the development of a cannion an otherwise normal human ing. No theory explains all canns; there may be many reasons the development of one type a single reason for the developpment of many. The irritation theory seems to have the most followers, and has great deal of proof to substantiit it as at least a partial explanation of this unhappy affliction. For one time it was thought, especially among the laity, that a single new or contusion could result in a cancer. The Encyclopedia Brittanlsays, though, that "It is illogito assume that single trauma ays any important role in the consation of cancers." "Many small traumas," such as the daily swallowing of hot drinks, fitting dentures, pipe stems against the lips and tongue, and a SMOKE inhaled while using tocoo are said to play a large part in the development of cancers of the skin or mucous membranes of oral cavity and oesophagus. Example A classical example which is used is that of the Indian Hindu who is addicted to the habit of newing a mixture of irritating peca nut, betal nut and lime, and who suffer from an extremely high incidence of cancer of the cheek. In our own country there have been numerous reports made on the high incidence of cancer dis- Orangefair Shopping Center COR. SPADR ORANGETH Between Fullerton and ASON TO SMILE — Because of his revolutionary work in bone marrow transplantation, Dr. Nathaniel B. Kurnick, a resident of Garden Grove and Chief of the Long Beach VA Hospital'sematology Service, sees new hope for other incurable cancer victims. Dr. Kurnick is al-ian Associate Professor of Medicine at U of C, and has done work at the Nobel Institute, Stockholm, Sweden. Pictured at his left is his assistant, Andrew Montano, a Grad Research Chemist with U of C and a native of Long Beach. The machine they are leaning upon is used to slow freeze extracted bone marrow. (Bulletin Photo) Dr. Nathaniel B. Kurnick, of Ben Grove, the chief of the Beach VA Hospital's Hematology Service, has found a way to preserve extracted treatment. The implications of this discovery are two-fold: patients will recover from treatment sooner than perviously also will be able to receive more intense which have heretofore escaped cure at the hands of medical scientists.
