The 1976 theme is "4-H - Koom to Grow". Local clubs are busy preparing exhibits for the enjoyment of the community. Watch for these windows. The first 4-H club in Illinois was the Union Pig club in Macoupin county, formed in 1915. The clubs provided worth­ while activities and soon became popular in McHenry county. Now there are about 1,155 young people enrolled in seven McHenry county clubs. The oldest surviving McHenry county club at present is the Huntley Harvestors. This group has been active since 1926. Our Busy Three club was formed in 1946. The present enrollment is about thirty members with a large variety of projects. Our emblem is a green four-leaf clover with the letter H on each leaf.

NEWS i Physicians in Veterans Administration hospitals, long believed to be isolated from medical advancements and removed from their coun­ terparts in civilian practice, are disproving that belief. One such noted doctor is Dr William M. Lees, chief of staff of the Hines VA hospital near Chicago As a trustee of the Illinois Cancer Council he has been instrumental in establishing a state-wide telephone system that will enable any physician in the state to obtain specific patient consultation from a panel of qualified cancer specialists. By calling an 800-toll-free number which has been fur­ nished to all physicians in the state, any doctor can ask the heip of the Illinois Cancer Council consultants in deter­ mining what is the latest and best treatment available for his particular cancer patient. Dr. Lees says with the ever- expanding knowledge about cancer, the information service offers an exchange of reliable advice and inforamtion about cancer research, detection, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation to professionals who want to be sure the best available medical resources are provided their patient. The VA physician says the Illinois program is only the second such service in the nation. It links clinician directly with cancer experts in professional physician-to- physician relationships the available information through the service covers many different scientific ap­ proaches to medical management of the cancer patient as well as the social services important to the patient and his family The Illinois program is in cooperation with the American Cancer Society, Illinois division. It was initiated on June 1. Dr. Lees says he estimates that if all the available in­ formation and technology were put to use, early detection and adequate treatment could save the lives of an additional 100,000 cancer victims each year. The Illinois Cancer Council is a cooperative effort of every medical school in the state and other organizations having cancer control, education or research as a major interest. The council is linked to the other 17 comprehensive Cancer Centers throughout the United States, and progress made in scientific information related to the treatment of cancer becomos available to benefit cancer patients anywhere in the world. Dr. Lees said the new telephone system makes possible both a physician-to- physician communication and a scientific-to-layman channel that together should improve the chances of successfully combating cancer. In addition to his duties as chief of staff at the Hines VA hospital, Dr I,ees is clinical professor of thoracic surgery at Stritch School of Medicine, Loyola University and a trustee of the Illinois State Medical Society.
