AP Science Reporter
NEW YORK to - The old warn
las to slow way down at 140 and
quit exereiae is being- torpedoed by
more and more medical experts.
They calj exercise good medi
cine for Ion life andVyour heart
Otherwise, you're likely to rot to
death,; ;, -
The general warning to stop
H vigorous exercise at 40 seems
to me to be ridiculous and, more
likely than not,- actually to lead to
an increase . of coronary athero
sclerosis" or hardening of the
heart arteries, Dr. Paul D. White
of Boston, a prominent heart ex
pert, told the American Medical
Association. )
Some whys and wherefores in
support come strongly from Dr.
Theodore G. Klumpp, tennis-playing
president of a New York phar
maceutical firm, Winthrop-Stearns,
Ine. ; d -,
i It's true -enough, he says, that
heart disease is the leading killer
bow xA Americans.
Half Occur at Night.
But heart experts find that half J
of all heart attacks come during
sleep. Only about 2 per cent come
during severe exertion.' They get
the publicity, and lead people to
blame sports for causing heart at
tacks j I,
' One of be biggest mistaken no
tions Is that "heart attacks are
due to hard work, exercise, over
exercise, and the tempo of mod
ern living. On all sides we are
bombarded with the advice. Take
it easy. Don't work so hard. Slow
down. Do you want to kill your
self? Remember you're not as
young as you used to be. "
The telephone-besieged business
man does get heart attacks, but
not because he's busy, Dr. Klumpp
adds. j
Presidents; Live Amidst Strain.
If pressure and tension so easily
killed men, then President Eisen
hower; and Adlai Stevenson would
not have survived their election
D6or-to-Door
Bakery Goods
Service ZJpped
Plans for early expansion of a
sew door-to-door bread and bak
ery goods service in the Salem
area 'has . been announced by
Marckx Bakery.
The bakery company, organized
in Gresham 14 years ago by Ed
ward Marckx, began deliveries on
five routes "here last Monday and
plan to" expand services to include
five others in the near future.
Each route! is being handled by
an individual driver from Salem
who acts as a rolling retailer for
his area. .
Bakery goods from the com
pany's Gresham Bakery are de
livered to a Salem distribution
point two hours after leaving the
ovens, a company spokesman said
Saturday. Plans also include con
strucuon ot a warehouse as a
center for distribution in the Sa
lem area.

campaigns, ' and "almost- every
President and most congressmen
should drop dead in office. Actual
ly not a single President has ever
had a fatal heart attack in office.
He says it is mostly too much
eating and not enough exercise
that contribute ; heavily , to heart
attacks.' i '
The exercise, be cautions, should
be dictated by common sense and
physical condition. A main thing
is to keep up activity you're ac
customed to. And if s silly to start
in at strenuous sports after a long
lay-off.
But he holds, any slackening of
activity leads very quickly to atro
phy or degeneration.
"The atrophy of dis-use, both
mental and physical, is the most
insidious and, in my opinion, the
most deadly disease known to man.
"We don't wear out we rust
out" -
Shorter Weeks No Help
Today, Dr. Klumpp continues,
most of us have a 40-hour week.
We used to work a 6-day, 48-hour
week, and before that, a much
longer work week. But heart trou
bles weren't killing more people
then.
Businessmen especially have a
neurosis that the tempo of their
lives is killing them. They worry
about K, and "work with mental
brakes set againt their work and
in mortal terror of a heart attack.
They are afraid to live for feaf
of dying."
"Let's do away with this non
sense and take our vacations and
time off because we like vacations
and time off not because we're
afraid well drop dead if we don't"
Exercise Claimed Beneficial.
And Dr. Ernest Jokl, a European
heart specialist, holds that regu
lar exercise, done for fun and with
common sense, can "probably make
you feel, look, and act JO years
younger when you're 60."
The, systematic exercise slows
down aging, he finds. Muscular ac
tivity "will never damage a nornv
alheart There s no . such thing as
heart strain or heart trouble from
athletics themselves.' t
He urges starting in early at
sports you can maintain tnrougn
life whether dancing, table-tennis.
golfV or other activities.- Walking
is good, but you . "must put your
head and heart into it as well as
your feet." "
And there's af difference between
exercise for fun, and exercise under
strain. Dr. Jokl says.
Avoid Nervous Strain.'
Running for a taxicab to make
an appointment can even be -bad.
For exercise under nervous strain
can narrow the artery bringing
blood to the heart. Exercise done
for fun expands this artery, gives
your heart more blood.
; Sports also help you work out
tensions,, leave you relaxed, better
able to sleep.
i Along the same line. Dr. White
calls too much food "the most im
portant faulty way of life in this
country today.
"Malnutrition and infection have
given way to over-nutrition and the
ills that seem to accompany it
High blood pressure, diabetes and
increased coronary heart disease.
"A good program of regular ex
ercise of almost any sort (walking
a few miles a day may suffice),
and avoidance of over-nutrition, and
a return in part at least to the
more . rugged, positive' virtues of
our ancestors the cultivation not
only of courage, patience and opti
mism, but also of good hard work
(even on Saturdays) may do more
for our future health and happi
ness than all the new medicines
or new operations in the world."
