Forty per cent of the funds col lected here will DC used I O r Grovrr Mandrn treatment of Carteret cancer pa tients while the remainder will be given to national headquarters of the American Cancer society. A portion of the money will be used to maintain one of the five cancer detection centers in the state, including: the one at Kin ston which serves this area. A goal of $1,000 has been set for Carteret county, Mr. Munden stated today. "Fixing of this goal," he com mented, "will provide us with a general objective, a sort of target | that should be struck not once but as many times over as pos sible." Chairman Munden explained that the goal was assigned by the division headquarters of ACS and is an approximate share of what Carteret should raise in propor tion to other towns and cities. "There is very little relation ship," said Mr. Munden "between this figure and the actual money needed. The national headquarters of the American Cancer society has informed us that they will need at least $3,500,000 to con tinue the research projects now underway. They could use millions more if all of the research appli cation! were to be filled. "The Society must select only the mdet pioiuisnig among .the hundred* ' 6f possible avenues which may eventually lead to a cancer cure. It seems a pity that some scientist who may hold a clue that could lead to the con quest of cancer will be unable tcr develop his research for lack of funds. "I know that the people of our county are going to accept this goal as a springboard. From there we can carry the 1949 drive along that extra mile that comes j really from the heart," the chair ! man concluded. Norehead 'Peeper' Told to Leave North Carolina Judge L.
