Phone 7372281 Over l000 Affiliates across the World ifes the examiner Monday A92 20 979 By IRIS GADD For the Examiner ALLISTON About 150 Alliston area residents were tested for fitness through the Fit Test program which ended here Wednesday after 22 weeks We always run into few people one in 20 who are really in bad shape says Tony Verde fitness unit supervisor The $15 fit test is good value since it costs up to $100 in most fitness institutes and large health clubs says Verde The most important aspect of the tests in threelead eleclt trocardiogram which monitors heartbeats before and during exercising and spots about 85 per cent of abnormalities We definitely find lot of abnormalities as people in crease their heartbeat to greater levels says Verde About one out of 20 people tested have ECG abnormalities and about one out of 15 have blood pressure problems Flexibility is measured dur ing the program and tests show that Canadians have pretty poor flexibility since were always sitting with knees bent and the back of the legs get no exercise advises Verde He adds that good flexibility allows greater blood flow through joint areas and reduces the chances of arthritis in later life It also prevents sports in juries since muscles will stretch instead of tearing Another series of tests measure muscular endurance and strength good percen tage of back problems are pro bably due to lack of abdomina strength which might be prevented from the beginning an acceptable level of ab dominal strength was attain ed says Verde screening technique shows up any major upper pulmonary obstructions caused by smok ing asthma bronchitis or lung problems Probably 95 pe cent of the people are norma here but shows up on this screen tha persons lungs probably won ever return to completely nor mallevels Another test includes body once problem We fat check with different stan dards for males since women are made up of larger compo nent of My fat by nature Verde warns that too much fat results in blood pressure pro blems takes oxygen from the bloodstream and decreases flexibility The Fit Test group will be Ix back in Alliston in two weeks to test the 130 employees of Bax ter Travenol Labs then will move on to the Collingwood and lt Midland areas in October One in 20 persons who took an Ontario government fitness test in Alliston recently was found to be in bad shape

uItllol For more information all Phone 7286748 Ann Lenders Dear Ann Lenders do not recall that you have ever and dressed yourself to an important change that has occurred in American women in the last 20 years It is an unsightly physical deformity known as Balloon Butt or Pillow Hi Why is it that so many American women who appear to be under 40 are afflicted with this ugly accumulation of fatty tissue around the hips rear end and upper thi area Is there medical term for it Is it byproduct our much vaunted standard of living It is because American females have grown careless and lazy How does woman who must know she is being observed from all angles feel about the shape she is in If she doesnt care does it mean she is mentally unhealthy If she does care and refuses to remedy the situation with diet and ex ercises does it mean she is slob Ive spent most of my life in foreign countries and have seen very few women of comparable age who suffer from this disfiguring problem Please explain Bemused In Berlin Dear Bemused Actually there is nothing new about the Balloon ButtPillow Hips syndrome What IS new is that women have taken to wearing slacks jeans and pantsuits thus exposing themselves to the casual observer in way they never didbefore In the old days yards and yards of fabric covered multitude of sins You label the problem peculiar to American women and sign yourself Bemused in Berlin Check your glasses and take better look Bub Ive been around the world good bit myself and Ill bet you bushel of German marks that pound for pound frauleins of all ages outweigh American women by at least 20per cent Dear Ann Landers You have printed many gripes in your column about computer errors delayed refunds and hassles with mailorder houses Will you please tell your readers they could help themselves lot by simply putting the date on their letters Heres how it works If clerk sees the date on letter it is possible to tell whether the item ordered or the refund check or replacement has crossed in the mail Corrective action can be taken immediately Another way the consumer can help himself is by in cluding the area code and telephone number It takes time and money to hunt up missing area codes These costs of course are passed on to the consumer Ill bet your readers would be shocked to know it costs less to make 50cent or even $100 phone call then to write business letter these days Also the phone saves time Do your readers favor Ann and print this They need to be educated Tom Natl 4H Supply Chicago Dear Tom My readers have done plenty of favors for me

stay up nights worrying about it but every once in while sense that our civilization is near its end Its demise is not by fire flood or earthquake but slow insidious extinction death by overcommunication think about the billboards dotting the countryside two papers at your doorstep each day 13 magazines month on your coffee table radios that play as you sleep and travel television that desensitizes you pipedin music at work CBS in your car transistors in your cket letters stacked at your mailbox telephones that fol ow you everywhere Dial aPrayer DiaIaJoke DialaRide and DialaPlumber Intercoms throughout your house singing telegrams group therapy talk shows and newsletters All we seem to be doing is communicating No one listens anymore Well neednt have worried The problem has solved itself It is becoming so expensive to communicate it will only be matter of time before we are back to runners and drums used to call my sister on her birthday to tell her letter on on the way The letter revealed there was box to follow and if the box didnt arrive on Wednesday to be sure and call me back That transaction today would cost enough to make us share birthday Im not sorry to see all this com munication go by the boards Death by listening can be exhausting Some days get to the point where know too much about too little The other night dropped into chair and was struck by something very strange The silence No radios TV phone conversations stereos nothing smiled and thought So this is the way its going to be My daughter walked in and said If you dont want me in the room just say so but dont use that tone with me What tone asked didntsay anything You didnt have to she said read body English It had known my body was going to be the last means of
