CANCER STRIKES OUT

HOW MANY STRIKES

AGAINST DAD?

the worst part—you'll never know
T HAT'S
how close you are to being struck out by

cancer—until you check with a doctor. And it's

more than a personal tragedy when a family loses

its breadwinner.

Every three minutes the clock ticks off, some

man, woman or child is killed by cancer in this

country. Often needlessly. For doctors seldom have

a chance to check those danger signs* in time—

life-saving time in which they can often stop

cancer in its early stages.

So help your doctor help you.

The moment

any one of your family develops one of cancer's

danger signals*, see him at once. And lend a help-

ing band to conquer cancer. Join the American

Cancer Society's April drive to wipe out this

scourge. Every dollar you give lets you march in

spirit beside some child your nickels helped save

through research . . . comfort some woman

your dimes have helped relieve from suffering

. . . safeguard some family with new X-ray or

radium equipment your dollars helped to buy.

So give more than generously. Give so many

may live.

Your dollars never bought so much.

LIFE-AND-DEATH FACTS ABOUT

*Cancer's Danger Signals

„One-eighth of our entire population — 17,000,000 Americans — are today
doomed to die of cancer. This is a shocking, but absolutely true fact.
But there is hope . . . even today, one out of three may be cured of
cancer, and in at least one type, 92% is curable — when caught in time.
And to help science finally conquer cancer, the American Cancer Society
has made more than 100 grants for research projects. Right now, the
same scientific group responsible for the atomic bomb is directing the
research to conquer cancer. Every dollar you give speeds the search.
