Show Ostebr1J?n Pc4 Seek cancer cure Scientists in Utah colleges and hospitals backed by $460590 from the American Cancer Society are carrying out the research that may help produce a cure for malignant disease some day But their work is aimed less at looking for a “magic pill” for the disease and more with simply trying to learn about the complex cells which make up the human body “Until we learn more about how cells function we’re not going to be able to come up with a general cure for cancer” one scientist said Dr Karl G Lark of the University of Utah Department of Biology said this “basic” approach was learned from disappointments in the past “Everytime there was a sudden apparent break-throug- h it turned out to be wrong It was not as simple as we thought” he said Most of the drugs developed so far deal with the symptoms of cancer rather than the cause although they often are quite effective Dr Lark is backed by a Cancer Society grant in his studies of chromosome replication the role of proteins in replication and other problems in the growth and regulation of cells His wife Dr Cynthia Lark of the U of U College of Medicine also has and ACS grant to support her research into DNA replication Other researchers at the U of Classes set You can learn amost anything— from horseshoeing to yoga— by participating in personal enrichment classes this fall U Brigham Young University Utah State University and LDS Hospital are also engaged in studies on the mechanisms which control and help the body develop “Cancer cells are just normal cells that have stopped being properly regulated amok goes and run The replication process crazy” Dr Lark said The first step to cure this is to find out what regulates normal cells so that they keep in step with others all serving special functions he said “If we can find out what regulates the cell material we can then figure out how to control it when something goes wrong” he added This won’t be easy and is a long term project made up of details almost incomprehensible to the average Utah man-in-the-stre- et Cancer Society sponsored research such as “The role of Methylation in DNA replication” or "Replication and segregation in bacteria eukaryotes” is dif- ficult to comprehend but it is vital in adding to the basic knowledge of science Dr Lark who recently returned from a Cancer Society research conference in the said he was “amazed” at how much had been learned in just one year in basic eastern US research More and more scientists are turning to this approach as offering the best hope for an answer to the problem of cancer he noted Dr Lark paid tribute to the Cancer Society for its support of this unglamorous but necessary type of research “just at a time when the federal government had withdrawn much of its support” ©OD (C(Ml°XY)g NATURAL RESOURCES terested in trying out for Sponsore Sunday PICNI- C- An opening picnic will Corps will be held in the 3 3 at University tober pm held tomorrow for all Natural UC 324 END THE WAR!
