’ HORIZONS OF HOPE1 IN CANCER RESEARCH
Animated Film Report Produced by Sloan Foundation to Be Shown For First Time on ’American Inventory*
The first public showing of "Horizons of Hope/' an animated film report for the layman on current progress in cancer research, will be given on NBC -TV’s AMERICAN INVENTORY program Sunday, Dec. 5 (12:30 p.m., EST) .
The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation produced the film, which will subsequently be made available on a loan basis to schools, medical groups and other community organizations.
Script and film were developed by John Sutherland Produc¬ tions, whose writers and artists worked for more than a year in con¬ sultation with leading cancer authorities - particularly with the group headed by Dr. Cornelius P. Rhoads of the Sloan-Ketteripg Insti¬ tute for Cancer Research, at New York City’s Memorial Center for Cancer and Allied Diseases.
"Horizons of Hope" describes some of the more promising techniques currently being developed by researchers In the United States. It indicates that research thus far has inspired high hopes, and that in the foreseeable future scientists may achieve their final goal in finding a cure for disseminated cancer and eventually a means of preventing it.
Sutherland and his staff have translated complex scientific concepts into easily understood, dramatic pictorial terms. Ingeniously animated sequences visualize for the layman such approaches to cancer research as the use of antibodies, as a kind of special police force which gangs up and destroys invading organisms.
