Try to find at least one point of interest for each travel day, so that your children may have something to look forward to, and something to keep their mind off the uncertainties. For the trip itself, take along some games, drawing paper, pencils, and a healthy supply of snack foods. This will help ease long hours of riding and cut down on unnecessary stops as well.

The Committee also authorized Tom J. Vandergriff, mayor of Arlington, Texas, to appoint a subcommittee to draft a bill to submit to Congress. The present USOC was chartered by Congress and the Committee for a Better Olympics is pressing to have the charter revoked and issued to a new or, ganization. ), Rep. Ralp H. Metcalf a former Olympic athlete himself, was in attendance at the meeting, as well as C. Carson Conrad, executive director of Page Five Heart Disease in Cattle Seems To Have A Human Counterpart Research at the University of Utah Medical Center into heart disease affecting cattle which graze at high elevations may some day help scientists better understand related conditions in human beings. The condition in cattle called brisket disease, is characterized by high blood pressure in the circulatory system of the animal referred to as pullungs. Also ' monary hypertension, the condition eventually leads to heart failure. Brisket disease in cattle is known to occur in Utah, Colorado and New Mexico, and cattle grazing at high altitudes in the other parts of the world can also be affected by the often times fatal condition. , Human beings arc more often affected by systemic hypertension or high blood pressure in the arterial system of the body, said Dr. Hiroshi Kuida, chief of the Division of Cardiology at the Salt Lake City base medical center. But, he added, humans are also subject to pulmonary hypertension under certain circumstances. In humans, pulmonary hypertension is prevalent in patients with chronic heart and lung diseases, especially in places where people dwell at high elevations. This is true even in Salt Lake City and Denver. It is the relationship between pulmonary hypertension and heart failure that led Dr. Kuida and a team of researchers to study the condition in cattle. We are concentrating our current research efforts on why cattle pulmonary vessels are so reactive to various stimuli.. If we can understand why cattle are so extreme in this regard we may gain insights into human disorders that effect lung blood vessels. Dr. Kuida said cows, particularly young ones, appears to be the most susceptible to altitude, dependent pulmonary hypertension. In contrast, sheep graze at higher altitudes without being affected. Man falls somewhere in between the two in the spectrum, he said. He said ranchers have known of the disease for over 50 years, but they did not equate deaths with heart disease or the lower oxygen pressure found at high . . altitudes. Instead, they specu-date- d that death resulted, from the cattle eating certain plants having nutriotional deficiency. University of. Utah research into the condition spearheaded by Dr. Joseph L. Thorne began in 1957, and within a short time scientists were able to positively determine that brisket disease was caused by the oxygen shortage and the resultant effect on the blood vessels in the lung. Cattle are usually taken to high pastures near the end of May, and the symptoms make their appearance in some cattle during August or early Septem- ber. The stricken animal- becomes lethargic, suffers from a - diarrhea and generally doesnt look right to the cattleman. In the final stages the afflicted animal suffers a swelling in its neck or so called brisket. Even at this stage the animal may survive if it is taken to a lower elevation, he said.

We all want to see the USOC get changed because it is a failure, Metcalfe told the gathering. Conrad, sent by the White House to observe the meeting said, Ill make my report this week. President Nixon is well aware of whats happening, and there's nobody more interested than he is. The structure calls for each state to organize a State Olympic Committee (SOC), which would be responsible for all the Olympic programs in the state and which would also send three delegates to the national governing body. The District of Columbia would be considered the same as a state in organizing an SOC and electing delegates to the USOC.
