CHOLESTEROL LEVEL DOESN'T INCREASE IN ONE MALE GROUP By DELOS SMITH UPI Staff Writer ' NEW YORK I UPI In one tribe ot human beings the cho lesterol blood levels of the males do not increase with age, accord ing to new and impressive' evi dence. That's exciting because it is contrary to previous scientific findings concerning human males. Increasing blood levels of thai fatty blood substance, cholesterol, has been repeatedly indicted as a p-ime cause of "hardening" of the arteries which, in turn, leads to heart attacks, the number one killer of males in their prime. In science a single exception shatters any rule. If increasing years do not make a rise in mas culine cholesterol levels inevitable, then the tendency of the levels to rise in most males as they get older, has to be due to their cir cumstances rather than to their masculinity. The new evidence indicates that Patricia Myers Attends Linfield Summer Institute Patricia Ann Myers, 1107 F. Avenue, is among 119 girls at tending second annual Junior En gineers and Scientists Summer Institute (JESS1) at Linfield col lege in McMinnville. In order to qualify for the pro gram of orientalion on careers, opportunities, and course require mens in science and engineering, the high school girls must have high scholarship, including an 85 per cent grade average, and come highly recommended by their high school principals and teachers. Linfield professors are teach ing 53 class hours in chemistry, physiology, zoology, bacteriology genetics, engineering, glass blow ing, physics, astronomy, statistics. botany, ecology, embryology, for eign languages, home economics, food technology, mathematics, ecology, library science, and pr-ychology. Two .field trips and evening guest lecturers ore cn the pro gram. The session ends Saturday with a final examination. 77-Year-Old Plans To Walk To Missouri SACRAMENTO, Calir. 'UPI' Mrs. Lou Ash, who will be 77 years old on July 1, explained to authorities why she decided to walk to Missouri. "When I take a notion to go some place, 1 Just up and go," she said. She told sheriff's deputies who picked her up on a highway Tues day that she wusn't worried at all about the trip. "1 knew I'd make it," she ex plained. Mrs. Ash. looking for all the world like Whistler's Muther in a neat grey dress and checkered, lace trimmed apron, said she had "taken a notion" to go home lo Southwest City, Mo., so she "up and went'' by the nearest highway She had been visiting her daugh tcr, Mrs. Anne Scrber, in a Sac ramcnto trailer court "for about two weeks." She pinned her wal let, containing $5, in a pocket of her dress and claimed "it was enough to get me where I was going." She maintained that her daught er knew she was going, but Mrs. Scrber said her mother slipped away without her knowledge. Well, anyway, said the aged woman, her daughter knew better than to try lo stop her. And she still intends to return to Missouri, one way or another. the males of Ihe tribe of Yemenite significant differences in cholestcr- Jews are the exception. These males had already attracted much scientific wonderment because they teem all but immune to heart at'acks. Drs. L'aiicl Bruiser, Gideon Manolis, and K. Locbl, research scientists in the government hos pital, Jaffa, Isreal, made exhaus tive measurements of the fattv substances in the blood of 7 of these males, 41 of them betwee i 18 and 20 years old and 35 be between 30 and 50. There we e no al levels between the young group1 and the older one. They ma le the same measure ments in 160 Jews of Eastern and Western European origin, Uhe Ashkenaii Jews.) Forty-five of these were 15 to 20 years old and the remainder were between 30 and 2. Here the difference bctwen cholesterol blood levels between young and not-so-young was found to be aooroximately the differ ence found in males of other ra- Obsorvcr, La Grande, Ore., Wed., Juno 24, 1959 Page 8 ces and climes in the previous investigations which in their aggre gate had caused many scientists to think that aging inevitably in creased the blood cholesterol lev els of males. These previous investigations had been of such diverse males as groups in Minnesota, New York City, Ita'y, Sweden, and the Ban tus of South Africa. The incidence of male heart attacks is high in the United States and Northern Europe, but low in Italy aid among the Bantus. Very Specia' Tribe The Yemenite Jews are a '.ery special tribe which lived a segre gated life for 2,000 years in Cen tral Arabia before it immigrated to Israel 10 years ago. Since then they ' have been living wnn ine Ashkenazi Jews whose blood cho lesterol patterns were shown to be of the general pattern of Europe from which they origina ted. ' In reporting to the International Technical Journal, "The Lancet," the scientists said their studies showed that a rise with age in cholesterol blood levels was "not an inevitable physiological pheno menon." They suggested thai dif ferences in the modes of living of the Ycminito and the Ashkenazi Jews must account for their dif ferences in blood chemistry. Those living differences remain to be investigated.
