Actress Celeste Holm public service announcement on behalf of the American Cancer Society

Title: "A Message From Celeste Holm" superimposed over sword / MS actress Celeste Holm sitting in living room with group of men, women, and a boy: "I'm Celeste Holm and here are 5 friends of mine and we've come together here to bring you a message from the American Cancer Society. Cancer strikes one in five. Does that mean that one of my friends here will have cancer? It sounds like a grim thought, doesn't it? But the truth is strange, and very exciting. Cancer has already struck each of these five, and each has been cured. (VO close shot of each of the five in the room) Yes they all have had cancer and been saved. They're proof that we can strike back at cancer. Five have been cured but let's face the fact that we are losing too many people we love to cancer. To save more lives we need your help. Cancer is a major problem and we need your support. Cancer strikes one in five but we can all strike back. We can strike back by giving, and giving generously to the cancer crusade of the American Cancer Society. Just put your gift in an envelope and mail it to (CU envelope): "Cancer" - c/o YOUR LOCAL POST OFFICE just like this, mail it today, won't you? Please strike back. Give to conquer cancer" / Caption: The Foregoing subject has been presented by this theatre as a public service.
