The total objective for the On- 800 Volunteers To Conduct Cancer Blitz tario County Unit is $30,000. He said that in most of the county units, the blitz canvass will take place on the same date. He said that well over 1000 people will take part in the campaign throughout the county. Mr. Gibbie added that the ma- jority of the funds collected will be directed to research to com- bat cancer. Since 1949 more than $5,000,000 has been spent by the cancer society on research -- 82 per cent of the total money raised. The balance of the money is used for dressings and service for patients.

Can't Outrun Train, Jumps TORONTO (CP)--A 14-year-old boy, trying to outrun a train over a bridge on the Humber River Thursday, leaped for his life and fell 40 feet to the ground. He suffered minor bruises. Police said Dennis Sweitzer and Bobbie Terry, 12, were strolling on the bridge about 60 feet from one end when they heard the whistle of the west-bound CPR passenger (rain. Dennis thought he could outrun the train but tripped on the ties near the end of the bridge. He decided to jump down 10 feet to an abutment but hit the side of the abutment with his stomach and fell to the ground. His companion took refuge in a nearby safety island and was not hurt.
