CORONARY HEART DISEASE Every newspaper reader must realize the widespread occurence of heart trouble. All too often news columns tell of the sudden illness of a friend, or the unexpected death of a prominent person. These reports are borne out by statistics, which tell us Standard Equipment On All Models Now enjoy peace of mind you never knew in a car before with Ramblers Double-SafetBrake System.

Main Gunnison, Utah that heart diseases are the Number One causes of death in the United States. There are several kinds of heart trouble, but the type which usually ocurs in the middle years of life it what physicians call coronary heart disease, and what newspapers call a heart attack. The term coronary refers to the two arteries which supply the heart with blood. We know that coronary heart disease is caused by a hardening and thickening of the walls of the arteries so that the flow of blood through them is partially or completely blocked. The effect is similar to what occurs when water piper are clogged with sediment or rust. We still do not know all the reasons why the arteries harden or become blocked. This is a problem that has been under investigation for many years, and while the complete answer is still unknown, we do know a lot of important facts. Scientists have learned, for example, that hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) tends to run in families, that is is more common in men than in women, and that it often occurs in diabetics. Most physicians think that high blood pressure hastens arand many think teriosclerosis, that regular physical exercise tends to retard it. The degree to which alcohol, tobacco or nervous strain affect hardening of the arteries, has not yet been clearly determined, but it is agreed that these factors, when excessive, exert a harmful influence. Diet also plays a part as a cause. Medical investigation indicates that there may be a connection between the amount and kind of fat one eats, and the occurence of arteriosclerosis. Further study is going on in this field. Usually the first sign of a coronary is pain or discomfort felt over the front of the chest, beneath the breast bone. (Of course, the majority of chest pains are not due to heart trouble.) But this particular one usually occurs when a person is exerting himself, as, for example, in running upstairs, or to catch a bus. Sometimes it will occur when one is angry, upset or nervous. The pain generally disappears after the individual rests. Anyone who has such a pain should ask his physician about it. Further examination, using such tools as the can electro-cardiogra- deter- mine whether the heart trouble is the proper diagnosis. There is no medicine that can prevent coronary heart disease. However, there are some practical measures which all of us can follow to reduce our chances of having a heart attack. First, the obese person should lose weight statistics show that middle-ageoverweight men are twice as likely to have heart attacks as men of normal weight. Secondly, if a person has high blood pressure he should obtain medical treatment to reduce it to near normal levels. Finally, plain common sense measures, such as appropriate physical exercise, moderation in the use of tobacco and alcohol, and the maintenance of emotional atan titude, will make valuable contributions to a better level of general health. d, even-temper- ask. When are they going to adjourn?" Would that you knew! This goes on every year. It is nothing new. We should be used to it by now, yet everyone hopes that it will be different this year. Everyone continues to make plans and then change them. I no longer hazard a guess as to when the Congress will adjourn. But this much I know. This is my last column for this year.
