Deadly Tumors in Animal[s]

By CHARLES [guess: PARMITER]

A housecat, a bulldog and an elephant have been relieved of deadly tumors by a remarkable heat treatment developed at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine.

The cat had a cancerous tumor in her nose, the bulldog a malignancy on the leg and the elephant a baseball-sized obstruction in his trunk. All three animals are free of their tumors since receiving the heat treatment at the university's Animal Resource Facility in Albuquerque.

"It has been known for years that heat kills cells, and that tumor cells are especially sensitive to heat," explained Dr. [text cut off] ...ity veteri-

nant tissue was destroyed."

Said Dr. Clint Hughes of Albuquerque, who diagnosed the cat's cancer and referred the case to Dr. Day:

"Since the cat was given this heat treatment 2½ years ago, there has been no indication of a return of the malignancy. I consider the animal cured."

As for the bulldog with a malignant tumor on the leg, Dr. Day said: "We gave the dog two treatments of 30 minutes each. That was 22 months ago, and there has been no recurrence of the tumor."
