Dr. Horwitz has developed a new test which checks for the presence of progesterone receptors in a breast tumor. The test determines whether a woman is a good candidate for hormone therapy. If she is not, the test enables her doctor to prescribe conventional treatment right away, without waiting to see if hormone therapy works and giving the cancer time to spread. The National Foundation for Cancer Research is a private, non-profit organization based in Bethesda, Md. With the help of donors nationwide, it has allocated more than SSO million to basic cancer research over the last decade. Bork's worth Supreme Court nominee Robert H.
