large cities.
Early in the new year the Queen Mother is to stop briefly at Montreal and Vancouver on her way to Australia and New Zealand. .
MADE HISTORY
The Queen's October visit marked the second time a British Sovereign has come to Canada. Her father, King George VI, and the Queen Mother toured Canada in 1939.
In Ottawa, the Queen's major function was to open the first ses- sion of the 23rd Parliament; the first time in Canadian history that a sovereign has presided at the ceremony. .
Throughout the royal visit, th predominant theme was that Eliz- abeth II reigned in Canada and visited the U.S. as Queen of Can- ada. In Washington, she was at- tended by Prime Minister Diefen- baker.
The beautiful Queen and her handsome husband provided one of the year’s biggest news’ stor- ies. Covered at every public ap- pea-rance by batteries of report- ers and cameramen-—in Ottawa the press radio and television corps was more than 1,000 strong --the royal couple attended press receptions in both Ottawa and Washington, apart from ceremon- ial visits. .
MORE INFORMAL ,
The deviation from the more rigid relations with the press at home sparked a British press cla- mor for some of the same treat- ment.
In Ottawa, the major chips off Victorian ideas surrounding roy- alty fell in -the field of fashions. Official announcements state d that contrary to outdated ideas, women could Wear black cos- tumes in the presence of royalty.
But the royal couple shook thousands of hands and went through a gruelling round of offi- cial functions during their brief visit.
Whether future visits will in- clude_more time for informality and relaxation remains to be seen. But Canadians now sing Will Ye No Come Back Again?

Says Big lncre In N. S. Teach
HALIFAX (CP) - Glen Mor-i ison, president of the Nova Scotia Teachers Union, said Friday sal- aries of teachers with university: training must be raised by $1,» 000-$1.500.
Miss Morison said a recent of- fer by Premier Stanfield to help the municipalities increase teach- ers‘ salaries, if more money can be found by the province, fo- cuses attention on the need for, towns and municipalities to bet- ter teacher’s financial positions. Salaries for teachers with uni- versity degrees must be raised by at least $l,000~$1.500 above pres- ent figures before the remunera- tion for teaching can compare with that offered in other fields
Cancer Seems
By STANLEY MEISLER NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- John, a man in his 70s, noticed a lump on top of his foot one day. The growth proved to be cancer. Doctors trie d the standard treatment. On th e operating table, they sliced away -the growth and some of the surround- ing tissue. Then, from his upper thigh, they cut out the lymph gland for lympl1, a body liquid carrying some elements of blood, often spreads cancefcells.
John and the doctors hoped the surgery had come in time, that all the malignant cells had been removed. Hope did not last long. TUMORS SPREAD
Black t u m o r s spread” over J ohn’s leg. There were more than 2_(_l(_). Cancer had intensified. Now_ facing the patient was an operation, promising little chance of success and much horror. It IS called hind-quarter surgery, an operation that removes an entire leg . and buttock. John fought against this. And doctors thought perhaps such,/a major operation would be too dangerous for so old a man.
Instead they chose an operation tried only on experimental dogs.» The name of the technique: per- fusion.

Premier Stanfield said in mid-' December that the government would like to help the municipal- ities pay salaries higher than a scale drawn up in 1956 on the basis of a royal commission re- port.
Miss Morison said in a pre-
pared statement the foundation scale pays a teacher with Grade 12 education and one year of 1 teacher’s college training at start- ing salary of $150 a month. Uni- versity graduates with a year in
She said the government's pro- education receive $225.
Promising
Last June John became the first human to have cancer treated by perfusion.
DRYING ACTION
Several weeks later, John no- ticed some of his black tumors ‘had started to dry. Soon they crumpled and fell off.
Today only six of the 200 tu- mors remain. ‘
Has he been cured of cancer? Doctors at Tulane University schools of medicine, where the the treatment was performed, are not sure. But they know there has been a startling improve- ment, enough to prompt them to continue further research into the technique. 4, .
-Perfusion éombines two medi- cal weapons that usually are un- related—drugs and the heart-lung machine. '
For some time, the drugs nitro- gen mustard and phenylalanine mustard have fought cancer. But their success has been limited.
TWO PROBLEMS
The problems were two. Doc- tors would inject the drugs into the arteries sending the chemi- cals all «through the body. If the dose was too little, the drugs would have almost no effect on the particular part of the body
was too large, the drugs would reach into bones and destroy the marrow, the s u b s t a n c e that makes blood. ‘
But Tulane researchers feel the heart-lung machine may solve all that.
Normally the device is used for heart operations. Surgeons con- nect it to the veins and arteries attached to the heart. (In this way, the machine takes over the pumping job of the heart so the heart can be clear of blood as the surgeon operates.
In perfusion, the machine is connected to the veins and arter- ies attached to the diseased part of the body. In John’s case, that meant the leg.
Doctors tied a tourniquet or tight bandage high on his thigh, stopping blood from entering or leaving the leg. The heart-lung machine then took over the job of pumping out blood from the leg veins, replenishing it with oxygen and pumping it back into the leg arteries.
In other words, John now had two circulatory systems. One, with the heart pumping blood, took care of most of his body. The other, with the machine pumping blood, took care only of his leg.
Just before the machine pumped blood back into John’s leg, doctors added the drugs.
The key -problems may have been solved. First, the drugs con- centrated only on the diseased‘, limb without being wasted on other parts of the body. Second, doctors would not have to worry much about the dose being too large for bone marrow. If the marrow in John’s leg were de- stroyed, there still would be enough in the rest of his body to make all_the blood he needed.
EXPERIMENTS NECESSARY
Much more experimentation is necessary, of course, before per- fusion can take a place as a major weapon against cancer. At Tulane, doctors are operating on dogs and several more humans to find out on what cancers the technique works best.
Working on the project with Dr. Oscar Creech Jr., chairman of the department of surgery, are Dr. Robert F. 'Ryan, Dr. Edward Krementz, Dr. James N. Win- blad, W i 1 l i a m Chamblee and Howard Creek.
Dr. Creech guesses that perfu- sion’s main use would be auxil- iary to surgery: The operation

Kansas Plan Brings General
By ED L. CAMPBELL l ALTAMONT. Kan. (AP) — IS there a doctor in the house? There is in this little southeast Kansas farming community Wlth a population of 678. He is Victor L. Jackson. 37- He came here because the town, doctorless for many V933”: set out to get one and keep h_1m. And because Altamont was Jllfst what he wanted for himself, his wife and three children. _ The same thing is happemng across the country wherfr. the American Medical Association re- ports, the demand for family doc- tors exceeds the supply by W70 to one. ' _ Altamont’s last resident physlc-E ian died several years ago after»
more than half a century of serv-I -ice. .
Dr. Franklin Murphy, then dean. of the medical school and now chancellor, of the University of Kansas, discovered that while the population of Kansas had In--. creased by 25 per cent in_ 40 years, the number of medical practitioners had decreased‘by 30 per cent. The state was losing 80 doctors 3, year by death. or _re- tirement. The 5 t a t e medical school turned out only 58 grad- uates that year.
Dr. Murphy estimated the.state would have to produce 100 or more doctors each year and work out some scheme which would at-. tract doctors to rural areas. ;
He came up with the three-way § Kansas Plan: communities need-' ing doctors would raise funds_to provide office space, examining rooms and laboratories for their doctor; the doctor would agree to rent or buy o'n easy terms fac- ilities so provided; the state would set up post-graduate train-. ing facilities to keep rural‘physic- ians in touch with advances in diagnosis and treatment.
After eight years of the Kansas Plan, these are the results:
The n u m lg e r of physicians turned out by the medical school has been increased by nearly 100 per cent—107 in this year’s grad- uated class, compared with 58 in 1948.
