V an co u ver Ave P o rtla n d , O r e . Flu season arrives .X X X X X llm W inter is a flu wonderland. Like the common cold, tlu is an infection of the upper respiratory tra ct. But it is much more severe. Flu v i ruses can work their way into the breathing passageways and damge the linings, then spread to the a ir sacs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged. The workings of the entne body can be d is rupted . Antim icrobial drugs do not attack flu viruses but they can work to treat othei comp lications. With bed rest arid m alical attention, most people recover within days or weeks from the flu. But if the in fection is not properly tended, complications like pneumonia can set in. 'Freedom now ” shows Black History O R . JEFFREY I W M O D E R N LIFELIKE DENTAL PLATES Robert W itt Ames spent al most three years completing his wood carving •'Freedom N ow ", a panoramic history of black Americans.

Last week we discussed vi tamin B, today le t's learn a little about vitamin B2, Ri boflavin. Riboflavin is im portant for proper skin tex ture. If it is deficient in the diet the skin may become scaly, the tongue reddened, with taste buds smoother than norm al. Prolonged subnor mal intake of riboflavin can lead to visual problems, cat aracts, burning eyes. Child ren do not grow as well in the absence of adequate ribo flavin. Riboflavin is relatively easy to incorporate into your menu. You probably eat many foods high in it already. Enriched and whole grain flo u rs, cer eals and baked goods con tain riboflavin, Swiss cheese, and evaporated m ilk are ex cellent sources; whole m ilk contains a fa ir amount, most meats are as good sources as m ilk, but the organ meats such as kidney, heart, and liv e r are very high in this vltiam in. Most green leafy vegetables are good sources as are mushrooms. Cooking rules to preserve riboflavin are the same as fo r thiamine. Useonlyenough water to prepare, save liquid fo r use in other dishes, do not over-cook. if you feel a supplement is needed, pick up some brew ei's yeast, which contains most B vitamins plus protein and iron and Is incidentally very inexpensive. N utrition classes, called "E a ting fo r Beauty" w ill he held one evening a week start ing in January at Figurine Shaping Studio. Classes are free to members and are open to non-members at a nominal cost. F o r Information,please call 285-0495. \ I here are several different types of pneumonia, some more serious than othei s. But about half of them are caused by viruses, and antibiotics are ineffecQve in treating vi ra l pneumonia. Antibiotics cari"be useful, though, in trea ting types of poeunu nia caused by bacteria. "W alking pneu m onia," whose symptom is usually a violent cough, is s till another kind of infaction cause.! by the smallest free- living agent ot disease called mycoplasmas. This agent cannot be c a lle l a virus or a bacteria, but tt has charac te ris tic s of both \ntibiotics can help combat this infec tion. Anyone with suspicious symptoms of violent coughirg, ch ills, chest pains, fe>ei, an.: headache, should call msdoc- to r immediately. Infections of the re s p ira to ^ tra ct, even when they i espond to antibio tics, demand e a rly diagnosis and treatment. The pneumo nia-influenza disease group is the country’ s fifth leading k il le r. To support the struggle against respiratory disease, answer your Christmas Seal le tte r. There's more to do. Eartha Kitt w ill sing in South Africa Many a rtists, including black a rtists have boycotted South A frica because of its racial policies, but some have chosen to defy this method and see for themselves. Most refuse to perform their be cause they are unwilling te play to segregated audiences which South A frican laws re quire. American black singer Eartha K itt is the lates star to take the opposite point of view. She completed a high ly sucessful engagement in Mbabane, the capital of me neighboring black kingdom of Swaziland, and while there spoke to reporters about tier plans to tour South A fi lea in 1972. “ Of course 1 do not ap- prove of apartheid. Ihaveex- perienced all the hurt and in dignity of such a system ," she said. "When I was six years old I picked cotten in the fields of South C arolina." Anti-apartheid organizat ions and other black artists have criticized her decision. M iss K itt explained, "you do not cure a sickness by Ignor ing it. Some black stars say they w ill only play to non- whites in South A frica , I hay play to non-whites for a fan- tastic fee and take this money from the pockets of tie poor black people. I ’d rather take tie money from tie affluent w h ite s." Her Mbabane audieneescon sistod mainly of South A frican whites who crossed tie bor der of Swaziland by the plane load to see her perform . Many hailed her as thegreates staff to appear inSouthernAfrica, in m u lti-ra cia l Swaziland, M iss R ift’ s act was fiee from tie restrictions she w ill en counter across tie boarder in South A frica. m i n u c a ^PHARMACY - Ï S C R IP T IO N s U N IO N A V tN U I ANO F A IL IN G PO RTLAND, O S I aO N 97212 2 8 1 -3 9 6 7 New biography ol Geòrgia State Kepi esornative Julian Bond called "Ju lia n Bond: Black Rebel" ha, tee,, ao.uired by thè North B randi Public L ib ra ry .
