Laetrile foes, fans agree to showdown
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Advocates and opponents of Laetrieve agreed yesterday to a winner-take-all clinical showdown to determine, once for all, whether the girl was right
The uneasy compact was forged by Sen. Edward M. Kinemidy, D-Mass, who is the chairman of the Senate health and justice committee that is conducting hearings on LaTeRie.
Kennedy pledged that if the government-conducted clinical tests prove Laetite was effective as a cancer cure, she would move a move in the Senate to legalize it.
a lecturer supporters promised in turn that if the tests proved the substance was not effective, they would stop publicly promoting it.
Latreli, a derivative of apricot juice used by many as a cancer treatment, is banned in interstate commerce, but 11 states have approved its use.
Donald Kennedy, Food and Drug Administration commissioner, told the subcommittee yesterday that a new government review of evidence shows beyond serious question that Laetrile was ineffective against cancer.
He called promotion of Laetrile a fraud
and said it could be properly classed with cancer cure boxes of the past.
Kennedy said he was angered by Laetrile promoters.
"I do not believe that anyone has the right to debase the concept of freedom of choice by swindling those who are desperate for their lives," he said.
In Columbus, Ohio, yesterday, two Battelle Laboratories researchers announced tests of use on Laetrile as a treatment for the rare blood disorder Houchens and Artemio Ovejera, physicians, used Laetrile to treat human breast and colon tumors implanted in mice during six months of testing conducted for the American Cancer Institute.
"The drug had no effect on the growth of the tumors," Houchens said. "It was neither positive nor negative. We saw no toxicity. I would have to say in this particular test system, the drug is not responsible under standard testing procedures."
"But this certainly does not say it would not work in some tumor in some other system," he said. Houchens said the mice did not get a special diet that some Laetrile proponents claim is essential to treatment.
Burglars threat to students
By HANNES DEAR
Staff Writer
Students who leave Lawrence after August 6 for the two-week break before fall semester may have their homes burglarized if they don't make their homes belonging to them. Mr. Markhors, crime prevention director of the Lawrence police department,
Home burglaries happen during all KU vacations, Brothers said yesterday. Students leave apartments and houses with them to study or work and they come back to an empty house.
If the student renter wants to protect his home, Brothers said, he should first talk to his landlord to find out what can be done to make his apartment building or house secure. Then the student should take a look at his apartment and correct is weaknesses.
"Burglaries tend to be inherently lazy," it boasts. "But they want the best return for the littlest expense."
If it is possible, the student should take anything of value with him, he said. Otherwise, he should find someone who will be staying in the Lawrence area during the vacation, and check to see if he will check the hospital or home even if it is only a superficial check of the outside.
"There could be 300 or 400 divided between five to nine n officers." Brothers said. "I thought it was the best way I could do it."
Another idea, Brothers said, is to call the police and ask for a property check. Unfortunately, he said, it isn't possible for the police to make checks made for checks during the vacation.
However, he said, it wouldn't hurt to call the department and request a check. If an officer has a slow day, he could go by and do it.
“Get a good one, though,” he said. “The
alumium can go through an alum-
ium beer can.”
To secure an apartment or house, the student renter should be prepared to spend a little money, Brothers said. The first thing that should be secured is the door. A good deadhold lock from a reputable locksmith company, Brothers said, and provides good security.
The window must also be made secure and solid. It can be fastened down with locks and nails. Make sure, Brothers said, that the burglar will have to break the glass. This will make noise, he said, and make the burglar anxious to get away.
With patio doors, put a stick in the track of the door slide. he said.
Another good idea, Brothers said, is to leave a light on in the house or apartment. It is better to buy a timer and set it to go on and off. But the best approach, he said, is to get two or three and put them in different rooms.

Carter supports bomb as option
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Jimmy Carter said yesterday that he supported production of the controversial neutron bomb as a new weapon in the American arsenal, but that he had not yet decided whether he would order deployment of the nuclear weapons.

"I have not yet decided whether to approve a neutron bomb, but I think it should be one of our options," Carter said at a nationally broadcast news conference as the Senate resumed debate on a bill containing funds for the production of the weapon.
Carter said that if nuclear weapons were ever used in a conflict, the neutron bomb, which has a higher radiation level and lower blast level, would result in much less
AT THE SAME TIME, the President said he continued to advocate elimination of ownership of nuclear weapons by all nations.
