Nome Cancer
Crusade Has Local
Coal of 5§l 150
What happens to the money you
give to the American Cancer So-.
eiety Crusade?
The question was asked and
Mrs. Lucile Gilbert, chairman ot
the drive in Nome, gave pertinent
answers.
The 1960 Cancer Crusade, which
begins Monday, has set a mini
mum local goal of $1150. No limit
has been fixed for the nation
wide drive which seeks funds “to
save lives without limit.”
“Sixty cents out of every dollar
we raise will stay right here in
Alaska,” Mrs. Gilbert said. “And I
think that’s the first thing our
residents will want to know.“They
like the feeling of joining to
gether and fighting cancer as part
of a countrywide offensive. But
they also want to know that
enough of their money is used for
local and regional cancer control
programs.”
Some 85,000 lives will be lost
needlessly to cancer this year,
and of that number, according to
present rates, many will be here
in Alaska.
Mrs. Gilbert said that 40 per
cent of funds raised will go to
the national Crusade; 25 per cent
to support nation-wide resareh;
12 per cent to administer nation
al programs of professional and
public education and service; and
the remaining three per cent for
medical grants, scholarships and
fellowships.

Philip Laughs At
Big Art Exhibit
LONDON, UP—Prince Philip, a
buff for science, cricket and polo,
spent 32 minutes surveying the 65
years of artist Pablo Picasso’s
career Tuesday night and 35 min
utes at the chow table that ac
companied it.
"Ha, ha, ha,” was the major
comment on the art from the hus
band of Queen Elizabeth II.
What he thought about the food
—that Spanish hash of chicken
and rice called Paella—was not
reported.
The prince was the honor guest
at the opening of the Tate Gal
lery’s summer show of Picassos.
The 268 paintings and other
works from private and public
collections in 12 countries, are
the biggest showing of the noted
Spanish artist’s work ever as
sembled.
The artist stayed home at his
chateau in France, keeping up the
prodigious output which lhas
made him a millionare at 78.
In addition to the paintings,
paella and Philip, the 2,000 pre
viewers who paid five guineas—
$14.70 a head got to see movie
stars Gregory Peck and Anthony
Quinn, to drink a sour red wine
called Sangria and to hear a back
ground of canned Flamenco
music.

Pioneer V was about 23 million
miles from the earth. It had been
tracked since its launching last

Sen. Johnson's Theme At
Convention is ‘Leadership’
LOS ANGELES. UP>—Sen. Lyn
don Johnson arrived today waving
his Western style hat and firing
away at one of his chief rivals
for the Democratic presidential
nomination.
Several hundred Johnson sup
porters whooped it up and a band
played his campaign song, “Lead
ership” as his private plane
touched down.
With Johnson were his wife
Lady Bird and his two teen-age
daughers, Linda and Lucy.
Johnson, the Senate majority
leader, stressed his leadership
theme in a brief talk to the cheer
ing crowd.
He told them it doesn't matter
“how many razzle-dazzle predic
tions” they get about who is go
ing to win the nomination at the
convention starting Monday.
“The only important thing is
who ought to lead the nation,”
he said.
California Democrat
Charges Butler Rigged
Convention For Kennedy
LOS ANGELES, UP) — Edwin
Pauley, California Democratic
leader, said today Chairman Paul
Butler “has used every power at
his command in favor of Sen.
John Kennedy.”
He said: “I don’t necessarily
like the word ‘rigged,’ but it is
obvious that Butler controls the
tickets to the convention.”
Pauley, millionaire oil man and
friend of former Persident Harry
S. Truman, bowed out of the orig
inal Los Angeles convention-host
committee in a dispute over his
request for 5,000 tickets.
“The difference between the
5,000 and the 1,500 tickets finally
granted to the host committee,”
said Pauley, “gave Butler control
of the situation. Whatever he has
done with those tickets has not
been detrimental to his candi
date.”
