Studies Raise Hopes for Finding Cancer Cure WASHINGTON (AP) There are strong indications that vi. ruses cause tumors in humans and that by exploring this connection cancer may yet be added to the list of diseases checked by science, a federal research official says. Dr. Robert J. Huebner, head of viral research at the National Institute of Allergy and Ins tectious Diseases, said Thurs.

day at a news' briefing re searchers have now established that tumors can be caused in some animals by viruses. Armed with this knowledge, Huebner said, scientists are pressing for the answer to a question of life and death sig. nificance to millions: human cancer also virus-caused? The evidence points strongly to an affirmative answer, he said, adding that would be "a very hopeful thing" because some of the greatest successes of science have been against virus-caused diseases.
