Cancer Victim’s Gift: A 7-year-old Oneida Indian who is suffering from a rare form of cancer realized a dream Wednesday during a visit from his home in Wisconsin to Disneyland. Duane (Little Bear) King, who said visiting Disneyland was a “dream of a lifetime,” toured the amusement park with his parents, brother and sister. The little boy, who met Mickey Mouse and other Disney characters, suffers from cancer of the skeletal tissue. During a scheduled eight-day stay in Southern California, Duane and his family plan to visit Universal Studios and hope to meet Iron Eyes Cody and Margaret Wiley, two American Indian actors. The trip was paid for by various contributors; one donation was a free airplane ticket from a travel agency in Oneida, Wis.
