Appeals for participation in
the Cancer Control Month ac-
tivities and the financing of the
work of the American Cancer
Society were made at a lunch-
eon meeting last Friday at the
Detroit Press Club by Congress-
man Jahn D. Dingell and Dr.
Harry M. Nelson, general chair-
man of the current campaign
and president of the ACS South-
eastern Michigan Division, re-
spectively.
Speaking from personal tragic
experiences as a sufferer from
cancer of the larynx and who
now talks again thanks to the
esophagael speech lessons given
him through the American Can-
cer Society, William Gargan, who
became famous as the TV star
"Martin Kane, Private Eye," ap-
pealed for support of the ACS
campaign. Gargan first learned
that he had cancer while he was
playing the title role in the play
"The Best Man" in which he
depicted a former U. S. Presi-
dent who dies of cancer.
Dr. Nelson stated that many
cancer victims can be saved, if
the disease is detected on time.
He deplored the fact that only
13 per cent of the countrys adult
population has had examinations.
Dr. Nelson, chief of the gyne-
co1ogy department of Woman's
Hospital, said 73,000 Americans
will be stricken by cancer in
1963 unless the educational pro-
gram is stepped up. He reported
that Wayne State University's
medical department has received
large American Cancer Society
allocations for research on con-
cer.
Congressman Dingell -asked
community-wide support for the
drive during April. He said 30,-
000 volunteers are being en-
rolled for the month's efforts
and he stated that $500,000 will
be needed as this area contribu-
tion towards the American Can-
cer Society's work.
Dr. John R. McDonald was an-
other speaker at last Friday's

bert J. Bloom.
Michigan volunteers, as part
of a nationwide army of work-
ers, will distribute ACS pam-
phlets in door-to-door visits on
April 22, Rep. Dingell said.
"In this way, more than 40
million copies of these life-sav-
ing facts will be .distributed
door-to-door throughout the na-
tion, in the greatest educational
drive in the history of the so-
ciety," he added He explained
the volunteers w:11 urge citizens
to heed advice in the literature
and to ask for contributions that
will help save other lives.
