Start Aug. I Service
In San Juan Straits
OLYMPIA, UPi — The first
hydrofoil passenger service on the

Mrs. Gilbert I leads
Nome Cancer
Education Drive
Mrs. Lucille Gilbert, wife of
Superior Court Judge Hubert
Gilbert, has been chosen to direct
the 1960 Cancer Crusade in Nome,
it was announced last week at
local headquarters of the Amer
ican Cancer Society by Mary
Dicde, chairman for the Nome
Chapter.
Accepting the chairmanship of
the annual educational and fund
raising drive, which begins July
11, Mrs. Gilbert urged “all public
spirited citizens of our commu
nity to make a full-scale offen
sive against cancer.
“Public enemy disease number
two,” the chairman called it,
pointing out that cancer is second
only to heart disease as a cause
of death.
That week in July has been
designated Cancer Control Week
by the Mayur’s proclamation.
Throughout the week volunteers
will distribute life-saving infor
mation to every home in Nome,
the American Cancer Society
Chairman said, and continued:
“Of course cancer control is a
year-round program. But this is
the time of the year when we go
all-out to try and save more lives.
And it’s the time when we ring
doorbells and collect funds to
sustain the ever-increasing mo
mentum of war against this an
cient enemy of mankind. A war
that must ultimately end in the
defeat of cancer and the saving
of countless lives in the genera
tions to come. At the present rate,
265,000 lives every year.
“More than 85,000 of those
could be saved right now. They
are wasted, literally thrown away,
simply because cancer isn’t diag
nosed and treated early enough.
Either because people don’t know
the facts, or because they pro
crastinate.”
Mrs. Gilbert said a quota of
those wasted lives are to be found
here in Alaska. “So our local
drive must be a drive to save
those lives,” she added. “If our
literature reaches every single
household, and if a member of
every household makes himself,
or herself, responsible for safe
guarding the rest of the family,
we could eliminate this shocking
loss of loved ones.”
The ultimate defeat of cancer is
the great objective of the Cancer
Society’s research program. It
supports more than 1,000 top
flight scientists in hundreds of
laboratories in all parts of the
country.
Mrs. Gilbert will have the help
of the following leaders in
launching July’s Cancer Crusade:
Mrs. Mary Diede, Mrs. Pat St.
Amour, Conrad Potter and Mar
cus Beauchamp.
House Indicates Approval
Of Health Assistance to
Limited Group of Aged
WASHINGTON, W> — The
House today indicated over
whelming approval of a state-fed
eral health aid bill for a limited
group of needy and near-needy
old folks. However, a formal vote
was delayed until tomorrow.
The House, after closing de
bate on the bill, shouted down a
motion to send it back to com
mittee, and so kill it.
But when a roll call was de
manded on passage, the vote was
put over because a number of
members were absent, attending
funeral services for the late Rep.

Suspect Drag Race Bet
Caused Nation’s Worst
Highway Accident
NEW IBERIA, La., UPI — With
the toll of nine dead and one in
jured, police yesterday probed the
possibility that a $10 drag race
bet may have led to one of the
Nation’s worst traffic accidents
this year.
Archie Alexander, 24-year-old
Negro from Patoutville, La., was
the only survivor of the four-car
crash just outside the city limits
Monday night.
Police had to piece together de
tails of the crash with wreckage
scattered over a one-block area.
Officers theorized that three cars
were going in one direction and
the fourth approached from the
opposite way.
Reports were that two drivers
had the drag race bet, although
police declined to comment on
such statements. They reportedly
made the bet at a gas station
Monday night.
STEP LIVELY . . .
HONITON, England, iff) — Vol
unteer fireman Eddie Marks was
enjoying a pint of beer in the
bar of the new Dolphin Hotel
Sunday when the town’s fire siren
sounded.
Marks ran a half-mile to the
fire station. When he got there
the engine had left — for the
new Dolphin. The fire, a minor
one, was in the hotel kitchen.
Orphaned Mother Clubs
7-Year-Old Boy to Death
SEATTLE, UP — A 7-year-old
boy was clubbed to death with a
broken hatchet Monday and police
said his mother signed a state
ment that she killed him while
giving him a bath.
"I started thinking about my
past and what would happen to
my boy if something should hap
pen to his dad and myself,” Mrs.
Jorgen Hesselberg said.
Mrs. Hesselberg, 46, telephoned
for the police.
They found her son, Jorgen
Lynn, lying face down in about a
foot of water. He had been struck
a number of times with the ham
mer end of the hatchet, once at
the base of the skull.
Mrs. Hesselberg said: “I was
raised as an orphan and when I
would think back over how I
was raised I would become very
despondent.”
