CRUSADE AGAINST CANCER

Scientists are constantly searching for new ways to treat and prevent cancer.  Improvements in surgery and radiation therapy have led to the successful treatment of many persons.  Chemical agents and antibiotics that will injure cancer cells without damaging normal tissue are being sought.
