That is the concensus of researchers in the psychology of aging at the Veterans Administration hospital in Houston, Tex. REGARDLESS OF their age, persons who are effective and productive do not think of themselves as growing old. Apparently they are not aware that they are aging. In sharp contrast, the researchers observed that individuals who have difficulty in their adaptation to later life tend to occupy themselves with thoughts of growing old even while they are relatively young. An integral part of the evaluation included assessing the attitudes of different age groups toward growing old. This included exploring the role of tire and the attitudes about ones body in the process of ag- - i f: Lis' Ipd&i&ssiK .$, ' m Ri $i I I ? v - ..

AS THE averageage of American war veterans passes 46 years, the expanding research program in aging the helath problems of senior citizens established by the Veterans Administration has been functioning long enough to begin to report its findings. Of the 165 VA hospitals, 38 hospitals and a number of outpatients clinics are conducting research nrograms in this ftelL Special laboratories for aging research are established in seven VA hospitals. Thirty-tw- o cooperative studies, involving three to 30 hosp itals each, are directly related to the research. A program of "satellite laboratories nourishes new concepts in the problems of aging. In these the VA is obtaining the cooperation of a distinguished group iff scientists and physicians who are not otherwise associated with the agency. To them the VA offers facilities and staff assistance in nearby VA hospitals for the advance of their own ideas for research. SIX OF these VA satellite lab oratories operate at Bedford, Mass., Baltimore, Md., Downey, 111, Buffalo, N.Y., and two at Sepulveda, Calif. Ten wMiUnqri satellite laboratories are planned. Concerned with the physical aspects of aging, researchers at the Sepulved VA hospital observed a progressive enlargement of the heart and changes of metabolism during the aging process. They noted a decrease in protein al bumin carried to the heart muscle, and a decrease in hyaluronic acid present in organs having an increasing amount of connective ing. tissue.

In the animal laboratory they were able to demonstrate an increase in albumin and hyaluronic add in the vital organs following the administration of die female hormone estrogen. WHILE AN expected increase has occurred in die number of pat ients suffering from the chronic diseases whidi affect older persons, the VA hospitals have had an increase of 33 percent in the1 number of arteriosclerotic heart disease patients, and an increase of 50 percent in the ber of patients suffering strokes and other brain damage accompanying aging. Efforts have been intensified in the. investigation of heart disease, strokes, emphysema, cancer, diabetes, rheumatism and mental illness, the VA revealed. Emphasis is being placed upon new Ideas and new approaches to the multitude of problems presented by aging and the increasing population of senior citizens. Certain complex body sugars called mucopolysaccharides (MPS), always decrease with age, according to research workers at the VA hospital in West Roxbury, Mats. They also found an increased resistance to drying by the MPS while the water content decreased with age.1 time-in-gra- and service remake it easier de quirements for outstanding young soldiers to assert themselves and be recognized by the Army.
