RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells.
Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Giving radiation therapy
after chemotherapy may be an effective treatment for Hodgkin's disease.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and radiation
therapy in treating children who have previously untreated stage II, stage III, or stage IV
Hodgkin's disease.
