Description: Nearsighted cartoon character Mister Magoo tries his best to ignore newspaper headlines, radio reports, and a billboard truck with bullhorn informing him of the seven danger signals of cancer. After a series of mishaps in a carnival, which Magoo has mistaken for a movie theatre, he comes to believe that he suffers from several of cancer's warning signs. When the doctor declares him free of cancer, Magoo joyously urges the viewer to have an examination now, rather than putting it off as he had. Copyright for 14 min.
