The invisable pollutant
By James L . Mack, M J )„
President of Oregon Thoracic
Society
We can close our eyes to
wipe out the world. But we
can't shut our ears.
The decibel count in our In
dustrial aoclery is soaring.
Jet planes streak across our
skies.
Trucks and millions
of cars pound our highways.
Rock music chokes the a ir
waves, and television sets
turned up too high assault our
silence.
Noise bombardment affects
our hearing and high levels
a n cause permanent hearing
damage.
Experiments have
shown exposure to high levels
disrupts sleep and rest pat
tern«, causes Irrita b ility and
mental distress, and reduces
work capacity. A b n o r m a l
heart rhythm may be asso
ciated with long-term occupa
tional noise exposure.
F o r reasons not yet fully un
derstood, noise even affects
the way we breathe. A recent

Tuition for
Public School?
Squeezed for funds, a hoard of
education decided Io impose a tui
tion fee on all high «chool stu
dents. In short order, indignant
parents went to court to complain.
They pointed out that the stale
constitution called for a system of
"free” public education.
In reply, the board argued that
it was simply using its discretion
to ease a light financial situation.
Bui the court decided that tuition
was indeed unconstitutional.
"The right of children Io attend
public school," said the court, "is
not dependent on the discretion of
anyone.”

report prepared by the UJ>.
Army shows that our rate of
breathing actually decreases
from exposure to noise. And
the heart rate and blood pres
sure increase. Experiments
on animals showed that expo
sure to high levels of noise
also damaged the kidney, liver
and stomach, aswell ts caused
deviations in brain waves and
skin resistance.
We can, of course, start
wearing earplugs and insu
lated helmets. B u tw eca n a l-
so demand that top levels for
noise be established i t the
places where we work and the
cities where we live.
Noise is polluung our plan

hot lunches. The halance (or
entire amount) Is paid by fed
eral funds. Federal funds also
subsidize about 25 to 30 per
cent of hot-lunch costs for all
students.
During a typical year, stu
dent-staff patrons of school
cafeterias and snack b a r s
consum e
37-1/2 tons of
cheese, 67,800 gallons of Ice
cream,
270,000 Ice cream
cups, 50 tons of french fries,
50 tons of ground beef, 14- 1/2
tons of fish, 108,000 bags of
potato chips, 96,000 bags of
com curls and 300,000gallons
of fru it juices.
Food Is prepared locally In
68 elementarles and 14 high
achools. Those kitchens also
prepare and transport hot
lunches to 28 elementaries
and 26 early-chlldhood-edu-
cation centers.
M rs . Smalley pointed out
that school lunch prices In
Portland w ill remain equal to
or less than prices in subur
ban school districts.
With education costs climbing,
there has been renewed interest
in the idea of charging fees of one
kind or another to public ichool
sludenta. B i l l tuition, at least, has
usually been ruled out because of
the requirement that education
should be free.
Lesser fees, loo, have been re
jected by the courts more often
than not In another case, a school
board tried to charge pupils for
their textbooks. The board’s the
ory was that "free” education re
ferred merely Io the school build
ing and the teachers — not Io
"extras. ”
However, the court held this
fee unconstitutional also, saying
that books are an integral part of
the educational prixess I he judge
commented:
"No education of any value is
possible without school books.”
Nevertheless, another school
hoard did succeed in collecting a
texthixik deposit from its students.
This time, the plan had two fea
tures Ihnt made it more palatable:
1) the deposit was waived for
anv student who could not pay it;
and
2) the deposit was refunded at
Ihe end of the semester, if the
bsMiks were returned in reasonably
good condition.
A court decided that this kind
of a fee was too minor a burden
on Ihe educational process to be
objectionable. All it amounted Io,
said the court, was a practical
method of encouraging students
to take good rare of their books.

Check Refrigerators,
Stoves Before Buying
+
G old
O f course, I had to make
some basic decisions myself.
Did I want an electric or
gas stove?
Did I want a side-by-side
freezer-refrigerator combina
tion, or did I w ant a re
frigerator with the freezer at
the top or at the bottom?
Then I had to take into
account the amount of space
available in nay kitchen for
each appliance and
how
much oven capacity and
freerer-refrigerator capacity
I needed for my fam ily.
The government’s purchas
ing experts really were not
qualified to advise me on
these questions, but their
checklist for safety and effi
ciency was very useful. You
may want to use it too:
'* Ampere rating for re
frigerators You can usually
find this on a plate either on
the back or in some other in
conspicuous place. The high
er the amperes, the higher
the cost of operation.
' Shelves Adjustable re
frigerator shelves and half
shelves allow you to make
the most efficient use of the
interior space. The shelves
should fit close to the back
and sides but should be easily
removable for cleaning.
' Condenser. The conden
ser is the long tube with
parallel metal fins that mean
ders along either the back
or the underside of the re
frigerator.
It
should
be
cleaned at least »very six
months. Ask for a demonstra
tion to see how easily this
can be done.
v A ir vents. Cold air
vents in the freezer should be
designed to prevent packages
and containers from block
ing the flow of cold air.
' Safety. Avoid re frig
erators with sharp edges on
the door and sharp handles
as well as those with unpro
tected lightbulbs inside the
cabinet. Stoves should have
a safety certification label—
Underwriters Laboratory for
■ lectric stoves and American
Gaa Association Inatitute for
gas stoves.
> Placement of control«.
The stove controls should be
easy for you to work, but
difficult enough to discour
age a small child, or they
should be placed so they are
out of reach. Check to make
lure you do not have to lean
over a hot burner to reach
the controls.
' Stability. You should
check all of the removable
elements of the top of the
stove to make sure they fit
firm ly
in
place
without
tilting.
x' Oven. Put a piece of
paper between the oven door
and the body of the stove;
if the paper pulls out easily,
you are going to loae heat.
Y Racks. Pull the racks
almost out of the oven, put
your hand on them with a
little pressure to make sure
they do not d it or bend. This
can be very important when
you are pulling a heavy roast
out of the oven or basting a
turkey. T ry the doors to
make sure they stay open.
And for both stoves and
refrigerators, read the in
struction books and guaran
tees before buying. Get an
swers to your questions be
fore you buy, not afte r the
appliance is installed.

I recently redid my kitchen. New stove, new
refrigerator, the whole thing.
Before shopping for these appliances, I checked
with some of the Federal Government’s purchasing
experts. They suggested a number of tests that I_
or anyone—could perform in a store to compare the
efficiency and safety features of stoves and refrig
erators.
