Female hormones are a pro- tection against this illness. The doctor revealed two males be- tween the ages of 45 and 62 are afflicted with coronary heart disease as compared with one female in the same age bracket. Dr. Rowsell briefly outlined coronary heart disease and a film was shown demonstrating the function of the heart. TAKES 60,000 LIVES Coronary heart disease causes three out of 10 deaths, he stated. Each year it takes the lives of 60,000 Canadians. To. day 1,200,000 Canadians suffer from some form of heart disease. "Diet appears to play an im. portant role in the study of this affliction," he said. 'In the development of athero- sclerosis, which underlies most heart attacks, fatty substances collect in the inside lining of heart arteries interfering with the flow of blood. When this develops on arteries leading to the brain, atherosclerosis may set the stage for some kind of strokes," he explained, "Others," said Dr. Rowsell, "feel fats affect the clotting mechanism in the blood sys- tem." The doctor revealed animal fats are strongly implicated in atherosclerosis. "Sedentary workers are more liable to suffer coronary heart disease than laborers," he stated, Diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, cigaret. smoking and/ heredity 'are related in this! disease, the speaker indicated. | STRESS A FACTOR | Anxiety and stress were other factors mentioned but Dr. Row- sell stated it was difficult to display relationship between the disease and these factors. | He informed the group it was difficult to pinpoint the duration of heart disorder. He cited case histories that varied from a few months to years. 'Ninety per cent of coronary patients recover and 60 per cent return to their occupa- tions,"' he said. | He said there was no reason why patients should not get! back to their job.

Monday meeting, decided terminate the lease of the land and retake possession of the parcel of land at the south west corner of Queen and King streets. | The city property committee voiced the opinion that to pro- 'tect the city's interests the lease should be terminated. and| also that action should be taken to secure judgment for the amount of rent owing to the municipality, If this action were taken, the committee said, the owner of the building would have the right to remove the building from the property.

There will be a period of time, the committee said, when the intersection of McMillan drive will be completely blocked off the reconstruction program.

It is proposed that a 24-foot temporary roadway be con- Structed to angle across the corner of the King and Queen) streets property.
