Cancer Group Plan Charlotte Center Tiie American Cancer Society hiu announced it will open a re search center in Charlotte, aimed at eliminating deaths from uterine cancer which kills some 16,000 women annually. The society's North Caroling di vision at Raleigh said the project will involve smear tests on 50,000 women in seven South-Central states over a period of four or more years. The project hopes to prove that deaths from uterine cancer now can be almost completely elimin ated. The project also hopes to deter mine whether more cases of cur able cancer can be detected with two smears taken at the same time rather than with a single smear which permits identification of the malignancy before the patient is conscous of any symptom. At this stage the patient has his greatest chances of recovery. Dr. Charles S.
