Don't know whether you
have noticed it or not, but the
four-way stop at the old bank
corner doesn't seem to be
sufficient to allow for pedes-
trian traffic and parking and
backing from the curb.
With today's modern auto-
mobiles, a driver can drive
down Main Street, touch
base lightly with the stop
sign, and be going 25 or 30
miles an hour again within
100 feet. This doesn't give"
the poor pedestrian time to
hardly make up his mind
whether he can make it or
not. A backing driver can see

ting that he is too prejudiced
and small for such an un-

beginning to sound like a
broken record.
Mr. Young is demon-
strating selfishness and has
a chip on his shoulder. There
are more people in the world
than just blacks, and if he is
going to be constantly pre-
occupied with his own race,
then he's not big enough for
the job.
He should ask himself,
"Am l the Ambassador of
the black race to the United
Nations, or am I the United
States Ambassador to the

ther or not the fears are
legitimate, the doctor is at
fault, although he is not
wilfully so.
In a recent case of breast
cancer, the patient had gone
through a cancer clinic
after noting a series of
"minor" lumps periodically.
As a result, mammograms
followed at specific inter-
vals. During the screening
and observation period,
about six months prior to
a radical mastectomy,
a physician not connected
with the program, found
nothing "suspicious".
He felt the patient was un-
duly concerned since her
mother had a history of
breast cancer. Around
four weeks prior to this same
patient's breast surgery, an-
other general practitioner
gave the patient a clean bill
of health.
Nonetheless, the woman
could detect the lumps easily
so she went to her health
clinic for examinatin. When
the staff there found the
danger symptoms, the
patient was pre-admitted to
a hospital after confu-ma.

following week, the radical
mastectomy was done after
numerous tests confirmed
the malignancy. The theory
that a woman (or man)
knows his or her own body
better than anyone else held
true in this case.
Much credit goes to con-
scientious staff members
of the Payne County Health
Department who are often
extremely helpful in such in-
stances such as breast
examinations. Again,
perhaps, this is due to the
fact that another woman
may observe abnormality
because of her personal
familiarity with both normal
and abnormal structures of
her own body.
The Cancer Answerline
explains their view on two
controversial issues--
Laetrile and Mammograms.
First in regard to the drug
laetrile they say:
