A new ad campaign will be launched in the UK entitled ''his health is in
your hands'' that will try to cut down on death from the most common form
of cancer in men aged 20 to 35, testicular cancer.  The campaign which
promotes the ''30 second ball check,'' asks women to use their seductive
skills in the bedroom, or wherever, to check their male partners for subtle
signs of testicular cancer since less than a third of the men check
themselves.  90% of testicular cancer is curable, if found early.

Rest rooms in 45 shopping centers throughout the UK will display the
posters.  It will be a hot day in the morgue before anything like this
would show up in the U.S.
