By DOUGLAS LARSEN NEA Staff Correspondent DENVER (NEA) It is now apparent that President Eisenhower's whole pattern of life recently was established to try to prevent the heart attack which he has just suffered. Although there had been no positive clinical evidence that the attack was imminent, there were enough suspicious symptoms to move Ike's doctors : in tatA rprtain nreeautions. Those precautions undoubtedly gaved Ike's life. And if his recovery is satisfac tory it is believed he can continue the same pattern of gov ernment, golf and Gettysburg for the rest of his term. In fact; it's possible medically if not politically that he could handle the presidency for four more years at about the same pace and with the same admin istrative techniques which he has been using. , Even if the attack had not occurred, Ike, had planned to finish out his term and perhaps even - put; in another four years by spending a minimum of time in the White House, keeping official chores at a minimum--spendin- g long weekends at his Gettysburg, Pa., farm, and playing plenty of golf. These andT other pertinent facts on Ike's health were gathered o weeks from during the past-twInterviews with close friends of the President, members of the White' House staff ..and from reports of the chief White House I s - r ' I I - - - ' fv1 A i l:-- . . - 3 If . j. -- , -- 1 : X-ra- ys had had since becoming President to be 79.

Doctors also say that up until now the crisp, distinct and easy manner of Ike's speech-ha- s been more indicative of general far good health than his aging appearance. A top medical expert says that during the last six months of Franklin Roosevelt's life it was his slightly "mushy' voice which gave doctors their clue that his health was bad. rather than his appearance. And Ike's voice, when and if he recovers from this attack, will be an important guide to the extent of his recovery. - " . -- v GOLF: Prospect of a round at Whitfield, N.
