H o s p i t a l employees them­
selves are good recru iters for
hospital careers. Gwen Brewer,
a medical laboratory technolo­
gist at Emanuel, likes the wide
variety of activities and oppor­
tunities In her field.
"The pay Is nice, too," she
says, "and It's a good field for
women."
Currently, she's exciter! about
some new types of diagnostic
tests being run In the laboratory
where she works - for Instance,
one that can help save the life
of an unborn baby, another use­
ful In diagnosing hypertension,
another Involving growth hor­
mones.
"T h is," she says, "Is why
It's so Interesting. There are
many areas to explore - and
many career opportunities, not
only In hospitals but also In re ­
search, pharmaceuticals, teach­
ing, or In specialized laboratory
a re as."
Miss Brewer, who "likes
w o r k in g with people," had
earned a degree In biology with
a minor in chemistry at Bennett
College in Greensboro, N.C.,
when she decided to go on and
become a medical technologist.
Thre’s another advantage she
emphasizes In recruiting for
her own field: "T h ere's always
a job open for a medical tech­
nologist!"

Modern adolescents believe
they can only be considered at­
tractive If they are thin, an atti­
tude fostered by parents, physi­
cians and advertising.
Dr. Hllde Bruch, an authority
on the subject of obesity, con­
tends that because many young
women have never permitted
themselves to eat adequately
and become used to living on a
sem i-starvation diet, "they are
unaware of how much of their
tension, bad disposition, Irrita ­
bility, and Inability to pursue an
educational o r professional goal
is the result of chronic under-
nutrition."
When they become mother,
they also complain continuously
about fatigue and their chil­
dren's problems.

families today own a cat, a dog,
or both, according to a trade
organization’s report. The U.S.
let population also includes 15
million birds, 500 million fish,
and an uncounted number of
turtles, ham sters, guinea pigs,
salam anders, and other exotic
creatures.
About $2.6 billion Is spent on
these pets each year. Of this
amount, $1 billion is spent on
p e t supplies and accessories,
$300 million on health care for
the pets, and $150 on grooming.
The rest goes for the pets
themselves or for pet food, the
report states.
