THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS
New Huggins Blood
Test for Cancer
To Be Used Here
; Georgia probably will be one
I of the first states to use the new
Huggins blood test for cancer
according to Dr. Enoch Calla
way, of La Grange, chairman of
the American Cancer Society’s
State Executive Committee.
Already, Dr. Callaway said,
the Georgia Division is studying
the test, with a view to perfect
ing techniques which will make
it possible to do the blood test
on a mass scale
The new test, announced by
the American Cancer Society,
) was described as “what is for
all practical purposes a simple,
cheap and reasonably sure
blood test for cancer.”
The discovery of what ap
parently is the answer to medi
cal science’s long search for a
mass test for cancer was made
bv Dr. Charles B. Huggins, of
the University of Chicago, who
already has contributed several
important discoveries to cancer
research. Dr. Callaway said.
The test is based upon al
i bumin disturbance in cancer
patients, which registers in the
blood’s ability to coagulate un
der heat. It registers even on
tiny malignant tumors.
Tests on almost 300 people—
equally divided among cancer
patients, apparently healthy
persons and patients with non
cancerous diseases — proved
positive for all cancer cases,
negative for al) normal people
and negative for all other pa
tients except +hose with lung
tuberculosis and massive acute
infections. However, inasmuch
as tuberculosis and the inflam
mations can be diagnosed read
ily, the test is not expected to
confound cancer with any other
condition.
Pregnancy, and even the blood
of embryos, whose fast growth
have given reactions similar to
cancer in other efforts to
achieve a blood test, proved
negative in the Huggins test.
Benign, or non-cancerous tu
mors, also registered negative
in the tests.
Dr. Callaway said that the
Georgia Division of the Ameri
can Cancer Society is taking
immediate steps to 'bring the
new test to Georgia’s three can
cer detection centers in Atlan
ta, Savannah and Columbus,
and to make it available to the
17 stateaid clinics.
The three .detection centers
are financed “in their entirety
by the Cancer Society’s Georgia
Division , which also supports
the state - aide clinics. Funds
come from contributions made
by the public in the annual can
cer campaign. The state’s drive
for $200,000 is now under way.
Rutherford Ellis, Atlanta in
surance and real estate execu
tive and member of the So
ciety’s national board of di
rectors said that in his opinion
the news of the test was "one
of the most significant an
nouncements in the history of
the fight cancer.”
"Also significant,” he added,
is the fact that Dr. Huggins’
work—and the work of other
cancer researchers — is made
possible by public contributions
to the American Cancer Society.
The Society gave him grants
last year totaling $74,485, and
will support his research again
this year with additional grants
of $89,600.
“It is the most persuasive rea
son I know why every one of us
must contribute to the fight on
cnacer being led by the Ameri
can Cancer Society."
Twenty - five cents of every
cancer being led by the Ameri
can Cancer Society is earmark
ed for research.
Dr Callaway pointed out that
the Huggins test is not yet
available to the public, but ex
pressed the hope that it will be
l in a short time. He emphasized
। that the test is not a new meth
od of treating cancer. But he
said it offers an additional
means for doctors to discover
the presence of cancer while it
:is still in an early stage when
i chances of cure are best.

Much too Much
A Latin-American colleague
tells how a business man in one
of the "banana republics" wrote
a letter placing an order for an
engine capable of a thousand
revolutions a qjlnute. The let
ter was intercepted by govern
ment agents, whereupon the
business man was called before
El Presidents who said:
"One revolution a day we can
handle, but a thousand revolu
tions a minute—too much.”
