PAGE M - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2. 1977 CANCER Answerk American Canctr Soctoty ? A postal worker asks: "What is Make Today Count0" "Make Today Count. Inc " is a national organization for advanced cancer patients and their families which was for­ med in 1974 by < rville E. Kelly, a journalist, a year after he discovered he had cancer The group, which has a number of local chapters throughout the country (some of which work with American Cancer society units in the community* offers emotional bolstering and the chance to share problems among people confronted by cancer. Kelly, himself, travels widely and speaks frequently about his own emotional reaction to cancer and the importance of living to the fullest, regardless of how long one has to live He is a spokesman for niore honesty when dealing with patients. He believes that many patients don't realize that medicine can often extend their lives even if they cannot be cured He also has called public attention to the sellers of un- proven remedies who prey on frightened cancer patients and their families. A housewife wflt¥§T "Several years ago my cancer was treated by a physician called a therapeutic radiologist and now 1 know someone who is being treated by a radiation on­ cologist Are they the same0 Yes The terms therapeutic radiologist, radiotherapist, radiation oncologist and radiation therapist all have the same meaning: a physician who has received specific training in therapeutic radiology; one who is certified by a recognized medical specialty board, and usually limits his or her practice to radiation therapy. The radiation oncologist has a particular interest in cancer. although the others also treat the disease. A man in his forty's explains: "I am a bartender and my work puts me right in the middle of a lot of cigarette smoke. Is there anything that I can do to protect myself?" First, it is important to be a non-smoker because smoking will compound the harmful effect of inhaling the customer's tobacco smoke. Second, try to make sure that the work area is well ven­ tilated A study done at the University of Cincinnati showed that bartenders inhale the equivalent of thirty-six cigarettes during an eight 1 our shift if they work in a stuffy area, but that the number drops to the equivalent of twelve cigarettes if the arjyi has a good air flow.

The container should never over­ shadow the plants -- the plants should be the center of attention. The shape and size of the con­ tainer indicate the type of ar­ rangement best suited to it. Oval or round shapes are best for circular designs, while tall con­ tainers look best with vertical lines. Many inexpensive containers can be found around the home or made from unusual objects. Con­ sider kitchen utensils such as chopping boards, wooden cutler boxes, butter bowls, earthenware jars, crocks, kettles and jars All types of baskets, pitchers, canisters, black iron pots and many kinds of potter containers are also good for holding ar­ rangements Most metals such as brass, pewter, iron, aluminum and bronze also make attractive containers.
