Too Much Stress Placed On Stress i Medical Scientist Deplores Situation By DELOS SMITH , United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP)—People are , ■ putting much too much stress on j I stress, even people who should , ' know better, said an internationj ally known medical scientist. “To believe one is under stress , or strain is easy and acceptable. . “Acceptable to doctors because , it explains much that cannot be ' otherwise explained. “Acceptable to patients because . it excuses much that cannot be | otherwise excused I “And acceptable to drug houses ' because it provides a demand for tdrugs that would not otherwise be .demanded.” ! However, continued Dr. Richard ’ Asher, "speed and complexity" i are not the same as “stress and strain.'' An Old Problem “Cavemen probably suffered as much strain over the problem of choosing the right cave as busii ness men suffer today over choosing the right stocks,” he said in | lecturing a scientific audience in i London. "Tension,” to him. “is a vague l word.’ But if there has been any I increase in “tension” due to modern living it "is more apparent than real. Under different names, it has troubled men for centuries.” The difference now is that publicity has made it, “respectable.” His reference was to the tran- ■ quility produced by the tranquil- ! izing drugs. “If there is any real i increase, in tension it may well be | the result of tranquilizers because [their withdrawal encourages the j symptom to develop.” he said. Talk About Troubles Tranquility can also be Jduced by massage, by heat, by \ “appropriate sights and sounds." There are many means of producing it, but it is “more logical Ito quieten a mind directly than Iby stupefying its physical casling” The technique for that is psy- ■ chotherapy. He said he had api plied it to a-young man and had I been thanked for it by the young [man's father in these words: T ’l [think it’s done him a lot of good!

I suppose you’re much the same sort of thing." This, said the eminent doctor, had made him feel “rather small”; ituwas "humbling” but it also was “enlightening.” Tranquilizing psychotherapy is not applied simply by listening. “The doctor, however effective a rubber duck he may be. has to emit an occasional quack.”’ Necessary At Times Like tranquilizing, stimulation can be achieved by a number of means—drugs, cold baths, and such psychological things as music and conversation. But “one man's sedative, and like tranquilizing drugs, stimulating drugs “should be used only to tide a patient through a Critical phase. not r as a permanent requirement like insulin for a diabetic.” He granted, that "stimulants are necessary to savor the humdrum and to enliven the drab. But they must be used sparingly. Overstimulated senses are less perceptive” ... 11 ' Same Place BYRON. Me. — (UP) — Roger E Wheelock, 24, of Falmouth, Me., bagged his deer here in the same spot where he had done it four other years. Wheelock shot the 125-poiind spikehorn on the season’s opening day. He stood in the same clearing and placed his foot against the same log as he had the past four-years and brought the deer down. Lucky Collision CENTRAL SQUARE, N. Y. — (W— Floyd S.

Wide Wide World To Focus On Westerns One-Shot Western To End All Westerns By VERNON SCOTT United Press Staff Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UP)—Television busts loose, with a one-shot Western to end all Westerns next month w'hen haughty “Wide Wide World" focuses its 90 minutes on the blazing-gun history of Western entertainment. Pulp magazines, old movies, “modern Westerns" and TV series will be scrutinized, explained and extolled by cowboy stars from ■Bronco Billy Anderson (the first horse opera hero> to video newcomers James Garner and Jim Arness. In charge of this stampeding ■ wingding —is—natty Ted Rogers. [ NBC producer who could only ■ play dude roles in a hell-for--1 leather Western. “There will be a minimum of ! brittle Eastern sophistication,’' he [assures us. “Only shots from the ■ east will be of Dave Garroway. ! We hope to place the Western in [ its proper position—as an art ! form 1 Will Describe Development “In addition to introducing great [Western stars, we will try to tell the present the evolution of he traditional Wesern story." Film clips from old and new movies—showing such milestones as the first jump from stage coach to horse, the biggest Indian massacre —will occupy 20 minutes of the program.. Narration and' demonstrations of loat opera lore will be handled by ■ Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, John Wayne, Gary Cooper and Hugh [O'Brian. Oldtimers will thrill once again watching Tom Mix, Ken Maynard, Hoot Gibson and William S. Hart go through their paces on scraps of film salvaged from dustv vaults. “The United States is the only place where the Western is not taken seriously,” Rogers said. “Europe and Asia consider Westerns a high art form. Gene Autry is the biggest star in Sweden and Japan today.

He was a cow- ; puncher before he came to Holly- > wood.” Rogers said sage brush sagas ■ are the only true folk-lore in America. “The cowboy as a symbol is only 100 years old," he concluded. "And from the look of next fall’s TV nrogramming. Westerns wil 5 be with us for a long time to . come.”
