Cancer victim starts
hotline for patients
United
BROWN
United Press International
FORT WORTH — The first
image most people associate
with cancer is “death,” but the
organizer of a cancer patient
outreach program is hoping to
change that thought to “dial.”
Larry Moore, himself a can
cer patient, began organizing
the Cancer Hotline of Tarrant
County Inc. last July. In Janu
ary, it became the fifth operat
ing cancer ’ hotline in the
country.
The need, says Moore, is im
mense.
“In Tarrant County alone, an
average of nine new cancer pa
tients are diagnosed every day,”
he said. “If we can make half of
those aware we exist, that will be
a real service.”
“I’m not sure what it was I said
that helped the fellow, but what
ever it was, it helped, because
two weeks later, he called back.
That’s what we’re about.”
The Tarrant County prog
ram is patterned after the ori
ginal cancer hotline in Kansas
City established by Richard
Bloch, co-founder of the H&R
Block tax preparation chain.
Moore conferred with Bloch
before beginning work on the
Tarrant County program and
Bloch, who founded the Kansas
City program after recovering
from what had been diagnosed
as terminal lung cancer, recently
addressed volunteers in Fort
Worth.

Condominium living is just a
short walk from campus.
A three minute walk from the
main campus brings you to The
Northgate—condominiums custom
designed for Texas A&M students.
Fully furnished all the way
down to the forks and knives, The
Northgate lets you step into an
incomparable student lifestyle with
nothing but a suitcase.
The Northgate offers two and
three bedroom floor plans, kitchens
loaded with GE appliances, includ
ing washer/dryer, and convenient
garage parking.
It’s an excellent investment for
parents and alumni who want to avoid
paying four years’ rent for a college
education. And it will remain an
extremely valuable property long
after you’ve graduated.
But best of all, The Northgate
is convenient to the campus. It’s
less than ten minutes walk from the
main library. And excellent shop
ping, dining and banking facilities
are always just around the comer.
The Northgate is available for
occupancy in August, 1982. Call
Mary Bryan at Green & Browne for
more information today. 209 E.

By dialing 817-535-0756,
cancer patients or their family
members are placed in contact
with a volunteer who has suc
cessfully coped with a similar
cancer and who provides a lis
tening resource, a morale boost
and an abundance of facts.
“I have not talked to any can
cer patients who were not enthu
siastic,” Moore said. “Our first
call was from California, from a
lung cancer patient.
The goal of the Tarrant
County program, and similar
projects in Little Rock, Ark.,
Memphis, Tenn., and Gainesvil
le, Fla., is to help people cope
with the sudden, shattering
emotional and mental realities
of a cancer diagnosis.
“Many patients are too afraid
to take the treatments,” Moore
said. “They are not aware that
many people are alive because
they took the treatments.
“Most people equate cancer
with death. It just isn’t so.”
