Mlaking Men More Like Women Wbaen a mani bas a heart attack, bie imay simply be paying "the penalty of be!ng a maie." Tbis is the opinion of Dr. George C. Grif- fitih; a University of Southerra Califo-ria cardiologist who cites the fact that twvice as miany menl as w.omen ag-ed 40) to74, suffer h-eart attacks. In Pan article lin theýý current Annais of Initerniai ei cine, Dr. Griff'ýti suggestedJ' a pos-. sîbie solution 7: Makre men chemi- cally more likeonen, Accordlng to Dr. Griffith, stud-- les have shown that men are f ai mrore likely to accumulate choies- terol, a f atty substance whicb ciogs the arteries and is balieved ta be a major cause of heart at- tacks. Amrong women, says Dr. Griffith, the condition is much less commn-on. This biological in- equity, says the USO cardioiogîst, has been traced to the fact that the female sex hormone, estrogen, shieids arterial walls fron fat ýmomnen past the maenopause, lacking estrogen, are more hiable to heart disease), wbiie the maie hlormone, testosteronDie, seam)-s to promote the f at depositls ('eunuchs are less likeiy to develop athber- oscrerosis) . 'Putting this toprcia use, re- searehers at TJSC (notahly, Dr. Jessie Marmiorston) haveý given 354 maie beart patients doses of the famale.sex hormone - in airn- ounits too smnall to feiize - -daily for at least two and a hall mnonths. Thie resuits were encour- aging: The deatlh rate for these men was cut fromn the usual 15 per cent aifter a heart attacrk to a mere 5 par cent. Dr. Griffith's recommenidatio)n: "The administration of estrogen in a smnall dose that does not 'pro)- duce breasýt chanlges or 10oSs of libido sbould be considered for every maie patient found to have an abnorrnial distribution of the t('bl)ood) fat patterni plus early clinicai findinga, of atheroscler- osis.

Cool weatber is praferableý ta the heat we have been enidur- ing just lateiy. However, I didJ get up and set the thermostat gets ever-yoýe cdown -- except maybe children at summner cot- tages.

We got ahaad of the crowds and wvent to se the flowers at the C.N.E. grounds, The waste land where the Mana- facturer's Building uised ta be is now a miass of flowers. It is ex- traordinary how quickiy a trans- formation can take place. But lt must have taken thousands and tbousands of haddcing plants to do the job. It alrnost makes mie wilt to thinlkDof the financial out- lay, judging by wbat it costS to set out an ordinary home flow,,er gardan, And Ghen wvhat can ,sorne- times happen, when flowa,-rs arýe at their best is often tragic.

Howaý,ver, thlat's nothing to problemns that farmners are fac- ing this surrnmer. Hfay aiready t eut; haler mnoves in but before one round of the field is coin- pieted, dlown cornes the rain That was the distressingý news contini- ed in-, a recent letter freim farmr- ing friends. We could visualise the situation so el because cf our own past experiences. Marly is the thie we had the same tbing bappen. And yet, niow w;e lhave been away, from the f arm a few years we find it uinbeiievab'ly easy to forget. And we don't really want to forget. I -mention this be-cause when we were on the farmn we were olten provoked by city f-riands, who had 50 ittle undicerstandcing of our probiemis at that timne. No-w wa cari appre- ciate botti sides of the matter. To f armri folk wet, stormy weather mneans extra work, often couplad with financial loss. To urban f olk it is a matter of an- noyance - upsetting plans for a long w %eek-end -- for a family picnic; a round of golf or attend- ance at a basebali gamie. It is a fact that onielhaIf 0f our popula- tion doasn't know how the other bau1 lives - somaetimes bacausc we don't even care. Surely it wvouid be weli to taka a mnore sympatbetic attitude t ow ar ds eacb tersprobiams. ~However, farmiing problemns are not what thea'y used to ha.
