Science Sheds Light On Hardening Os Arteries

% THE arteries are a system of ' carrying: blood from the heart. To cooperate bestr with, that Organ, they most retain a certain flexibility and “give.” With age, the arteries thicken, and then you have hardening of the arteries, or arteriosclerosis. c Arteriosclerosis causes much of she heart trouble in those over 60 years of age. and also may contribute to imuch klddejdisease. Coronary heart disease, one of the major killers of man. is due to an early hardening of the arteries that supply the heart itself. Many cases of so-called stroke are due to hardening of the arteries. ' r - For man? years doctors have been se ching for the cause of arte -o- .erbsis, but progress has See slow Recent evidence. howso'er, suggests that the guilt} /party may lie a fatty substance in the blood known as cholesterol: Not long ago a group of sciey-j lists produced arteriosclerosis in animals by feeding them a high fat diet which greatly increases the amount of. cholesterol in the blood It is significant that the cholesterol level in the blood is increased in certain diseases bach as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and coronary heart disease.

GOO,OOO to tide it over. 1 Observers of the Iranian crisis have noted that Premier Mohammed Mossadegh frequently adds tears to the eloquence of his oratory. In the case of the money, there might be no question about the genuineness of the tears. Mossadegh came to power in the midst of the following the assassination of his predecessor, promising to seize the oil properties and make al} Iranians rich. Instead Iran is broke. He may have been telling the truth when he said that unless there is 1; \ i ' i ' . i some money in the treasury soon “ho one can be sure of the outcome.” But he probably has a pretty good idea that one outcome will be the end of his rule. - o o The Yugoslavia Deal:The military desl #lth= Yugoslavia, under which that nation gets American arms in exchange fur participation in the defense of J;' i ■» ' i Western Europe, goes against the grain sos many Americans. Yugoslavia is a Connnufnst state and Communism seems to be the ‘.i I ' - cause of all our woes. v Yet Yugoslavia may hold the whole troubled situation. The socalled cold war began under the doctrine, enunciated shcirtly after the war, of “containing” |CommunIshi. Destroying Communism could be accomplished only by de- - - M ! V • stpoying the governments of the Communist nations, probably in a new world war. ■ j , / * ’ K' ' A pur fundamental purpose is to and avbid a new wofjd War. A new world war might very well destroy all real freedom. Perhaps the present regime in Yugoslavia may be capable oi evolving a kind of Communism which would favor national independence rather than a place in the Moscow orbit, and would be intent on domestic afms gnd not on world aggression. It may be a pipe llream. but if alb the Communism :in the world were of the Yugoslav kind, we not be in our present pre- : dicament. Our most serious world ttftf stem not from what iConnnunT Ism does within a; country, but from the fact that it constantly reaches out to conquer other coupt frteS, by any available means. Can Coinmunism exist without that aggressive outreach? Yugoslavia mapr hold the answer. . > /■ ' • ® r 4> ■ ■ i

"No, sir. But i can state the thing quickly, 1 believe." He smiled his quick, appealing grin. “I’ve been rehearsing tt." Nicholas sat back Into his leathef chatr and watched the boy while he told his story, Peter ended with a request that Dr. Cowan tell - the chjet surgeon. A slow, eold rage had built itself within Nicholas during the five minutes it took Peter to outline the mess ne was in. He looked so like his father, who on another occasion*- * And mess this definitely was! Nicholas jerked to nte feet. That other mess, that otfier betrayal, was over and done. That had involved money—the misuse of Nicholas' name. This—- “ You eat something,” he said gruffly, "while 1 think this over."

“Fair enough," said Burke. “Get some sleep." The next morning Nicholas liked his duty even less than ne had done the night before. But ne spent no time in arguing wfth himself. He knew when he could best hope to find Mac tn tus office, and he took himself there at that time. Nicholas Cowan and Dr. Mclntosh were good friends, in and out of the hospital. He courteously asked the secretary if he might see the Chief. Her eyebrows went up. “Why, I’d think so, Dr. Gowan.” “This is somewhat special ..." Dr. Mclntosh, too, was surprised at the ritual. “What you got on your mind?” he demanded, leaning back to look at his friend. "Sit down, boy, and say your piece." Nicholas got his pipe and his story going together. Like Peter, he knew what he wanted to say, and said it quickly. The Chief, a big man with a mop of gray hair and bushy, beetling eyebrows, listened quietly, considered the story carefully. Considered also the revelation of Nicholas’ anger. Cowan didn’t often bother, let himself get involved—“lt’s been a long time since you’ve shown an active interest in residents’ politics," he mused. “You know the two men involved, of course.” “Sure 1 know them.” “The worst that I can say against Peter Shepherd is that he “does show a genius for getting into trouble," growled Nicholas. “Are you personally interested in him? Wasn’t nis father . . .” “His father was a—friend. He took me for five thousand dollars on a note 1 signed. This is another matter. ..." “1 meant, of course, are you asking a favor for Shepherd?” Nicholas looked up, shocked. "Good God, no!" “Mph,” said the chief surgeon. “Tn all fairness to this youngster, Mac, I must say that hb* himself asked for no favor.” So • « “He knew that I was in a position to state to you what he himself realizes should have been written on the record." “That he did recognize and diagnose an inflamed appendix?” \ “That’s right. 1 will say too that he rightly considered the history of malaria to be of equal importance."

He watched Dr Mclntosh, ir# lips puffing on hli pipe which nad cold. “Is that what you want me to do?"

Twelve years younger than 1 am. the charm of that red hair, his creased-cheek smile —" “But he’s not Nicholas Cowan." "That’s what I mean!" said Nicholas, With a flash of his old self. “On top ot all those natural advantages over me, ne gets himself into scrapes. That appeals to women.

Device Developed To Detect Cancer Cells New Device Worked Out By Scientists New York, Nov. 20 —(UP) — A new device for * detecting cancer . cells has been developed by scientists at the Sloan-Kettering institute for canter research. The device, which uses ultraviolet light, a photo-felectric “eye," fluorescent dye and an electronic counter, is expected tb have value in examinations for early canctr. Dr. Robert C. Mellors and Reuben Silver, his associate, explained that the automatic scanner JFas developed to identify and record the presence of cancer cells in fluids obtained from the body. The technique will be used, it was said, in connection with the so-called smear tests—a development by Dr. George Papanicolaou, who found that fluids obtained from body openings contain cells shed from adjacent organs. If those organs are cancerous, then the cells shed are of the malignant type. Thus, in many cases cancer can be detected very early, and stopped. The Papanicolaou smear tech nique already Js widely used in the detection of early cancel 1 of the uterine cervix, and is being applied in tests tor cancer of other sites, such as the lung and lower bowel. The new device will speed up these I smear tests. Heretofore, it was | necessary for- technicians to scan each separate smear. The new device will do the job automatically. In the new device technique, the cell specimens are stained with fluorescent 'dye. This makes the cells glow when exposed to ultra* violet light. The scientists explain ed that the preparations of cells are spread on microscopic slides and exposed to the ultra violet light. In thrn, the light emitted by each cell is made to fall momentarily cm a photoelectric eye. In th? next step, the photoelectric cell relays an impulse to an electronic computer, which records thfe amount of light emitted. 1 The answer—cancer Or no—comes tyom reading the record. If | Jhe cell has absorbed more than a I normal amount of the i dye, then cancer is suspected, i Go to the churcfj »f your choice DON’T TAKE A CHANCE TAKE PLENAMINS Smith Drug Co* CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE NICHOLAS was on his feet: he walked across the office, came back; Ws brown eyes ,blazed. “I hate it!" he said tensely to Dr. Mclntosh. “The getting out of your shell ?” “The whole business. - The fact that 1 speak to you of these Intimate matters . . .** “Fm an old friend, Nicholas." “You are, out—" “So" Shepherd’s tn love with Mollie,** he repeated, still incredulous. “No .* ; said Nicholas quickly. “Oh, I don’t Know, of course. He could be. What bothers me—" He acknowledged Mac’s grin. “Yes! What bothers me is that Mollie is in iove with him." “Oh," said Dr. Mclntosh eloquently. “That's worse,” Nicholas assured him. \ \ “Ye-es, I see your argument. But, of course, she’s going to appreciate what you’ve done for the young man this morning. Frankly, Nicholas, he was tn a bad spot.” “1 know."

But, speaking of age, I’m not near old enough to subsist on h<;r gratitude!" He strode’out of the office, the Chief’s quick apology unanswered. Perhaps unheard. It was not until the next morning that Mclntosh sent word to Dr. Brooks that he’d like to see her in his office, at her convenience. Moßie met the Chief with her hand outstretched, a Amile on her Ups. He laughed a little at her pertness and indicated the chair beside his desk. \ “1 don’t wonder that Nicholas Cowan is in love #ith you Mollie,” he said unexpectedly. "You’re a beautiful woman." Mollie gasped. ’T couldn’t guess what you might want, Doctor,” she cried, “but my wildest imaginings didn’t suggest that statement" M “I know.

He watched Mollie’s face. “A young man, Mollie,” he said quietly, "may live within himself. But is he grows older, he finds the well golnfc dry. He heeds some outside spring, dr river, with which to Refresh htmsett. Do you understand ma? I think Nicholas needs dome outside interests; tailing other sources, his work might suffice. I think you could—well—urge him toward more active work." “But bow?
