Sam Cayhall is caught, but goes to trial three times before he is convicted 13 years later and about the wider family of the Cayhalls that he is a part of. This is what I mean when I say Grisham moves from strict- ly advancing the main pla. We leam the story of Adam's Aunt cat's hair that saliva far more about Death Row and the legal system than a thriller requires. Because we know Grisham fol- lows formulas, we expect that Adam will save his grandfather by some miraculous unheard-of appeal. and every bit of anguish as Sam Cayhill’s remaining time winds down, but hope runs high. How- ever, unlike his earlier novels, The Chamber doesn’t let us off clear that Grisham decided to attack capital punishment—to denounce by death-penalty litigation and other legal matters. We leam a lot by reading this novel, but it’s not a regular thriller. Be’ prepared, read- er, for a different John Grisham experience. the letter from a New York reader who thanked you for emphasizing the importance of the PSA blood test for carly detection of prostate cancer. I, too, was motivated by a column of yours, and a lot has happened since. Three years ago, my first three PSA tests, spaced six months apart, regis- tered higher than normal. At the same time, follow-up sonograms and biop- sies were negative. After the fourth PSA test, prostate cancer was diag- nosed from the follow-up biopsy. When the organs were checked for any spreading, a cantaloupe-sized lym- phoma was found. During exploratory surgery at the Mayo Clinic, another growth was discovered. After a year of Canadian Criss Cross i PESOS by Walter D. Feener 1 —2° 73 74 py and ication, the prostate cancer is localized for now. I have experi fi the lifesaving potential of the PSA test, and one purpose of this letter is to thank you for the tip. The other rea- son I'm writing is to express my con- cerm and bewilderment at the indifference of others. Of the hundred or so people I've urged to get tested, the majority had never heard of the PSA test and showed little interest. I'm also amazed that this test is not routinely given to all males who take annual physicals. And now a word to the wives: If you want your man around for the golden years, make sure he takes the PSA test. I am a 74-year-old who plans to live a lot longer because of it. — Red in Beloit, Kan. Dear Kan.: Your letter will save some lives. The only thing you might have added is how simple the PSA test is. It requires just a few minutes with a docter or technician who takes a blood sample. Men over 60 should have this done twice a year. STORE | WIDE CLEARANCE CONTINUES CARL'S PLAZA DRUGS 9. Of the chin 10. Slumbered 11. Spanish nobleman 12. Phoenix team 32. Liquid part of fat 34.
