Cancer Patient ls Seeking Pal

lo Take: Part In: Rare Experiment

TUCeON Me

“next six months, maybe in two weeks, Robert F, .Alien is going to die of cancer, the doctors..say...

They offer one way out—if Al- len can find ‘‘the right person.”

So Allen, a Tucson insurance executive who will be 29 on March 9, is looking for some- one with osteogenic sarcoma—a rare type of bone cancer.

There Pl ga many of them alive. Those who are face the same.. fate - Allen= does—impend- ing death.

To’'make things more difficult, the person Allen seeks also must have O positive blood.

If that person can be found— and agrees to try a new cancer oe with Allen—both may Ive.

Last fall, two Roswell Park Memorial Institute physicians from Buffalo, N.Y., told the an- nual clinical congress of the American College of Surgeons about a successful tumor trans- plant treatment.

DOCTOR WILL TRY One of them, Dr. Sigmund M.

- Nadler, has agreed to try the

operation on Allen and the per- Son he is seeking. _

Nadler and Dr.George E. Moore said they have found that antibodies can be generated to

combat tumors by transplanting |o

the tumors from one victim to another.

Later, white blood cells — — catry the antibodies—can

be withdrawn from the patient and given to the other to destroy his cancer. The process can work both ways.

Nadler and Moore that- their experimental treat- ment worked in the case of a 25-year-old woman who had skin cancer.

But Allen has bone cancer.-

“I don't care: if the chances

are’ 100 to 1 against it,’’ Allen said. ‘‘It would be better than the 100 to nothing. odds... am facing now.’

THINGS LOOKED GOOD

Until last September, life looked promising to Allen, who starred as a football guard in 1957 at Illinois University.

Married and-the father. of two sons and‘a daughter, Allen was doing well in the insurance bu- siness and taking part in com- munity affairs.

“Then, on three different oc- casions, it felt like I’d pulled a muscle in my leg—once when playing tennis, once when wa- ter skiing and once when div- ing,”” he recalls.

“T went to the doctor, and he x-rayed my leg.

“It was like he had hit me across the chest with a baseball bat when he said I had é¢ancer ew leg would have to come

WEATHER LAUNCH DUE TODAY

Apollo Moonship Flight “Called Fully Successful -

CAPE KENNEDY, Fla. (AP) As experts studied results of Saturday’s spectacular inaugu- ral flight in the Apollo man-to- the - moon. program, another launch crew prepared to launch today an “instant picture” weather satellite.

"The satellite; Essa 1, is sched-

ed to go into orbit aboard a Delta rocket in a_ favorable launching period between §$:58, a.m. and 9:33 a.m. EST. The

lite is designed to send cloud Di Ss directly to local weather stations around the world and will complete forma- tion of the first operational space meteorological network.

Initial assessment of data ra- dioed during Saturday's 40-min-

ute flight of a Saturn I-B rocket | :

shots to practice rendezvous, docking and space walk tech- niques for the. moon flights.

The successful. launching also opened an alleut drive to achieve the manned lunat land- ing within two or three years, using much of the. equipment tested Saturday. ~
