MEDF03D MAIL TRIBUNE. BEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 110. PAGE SEVEN ? SECRET LIKELY If Pressure Rises, Odds for Grouch Are Good, Doctor Finds Health Signals. San Francisco Float in Rose Parade Milwaukee, Wis. (U.R) Your general well-being as well as the weather may be signalized by the barometer, accordihg to Dr. William F. Petersen, path ologist and bacteriologist at the University of Illinois. The next time you feel a grouch coming on consult the barometer. It is ten to one, said Dr. Petersen, that the baromet ric pressure will be going up The doctor asserted that air pressure plays an important role in health. Sudden death and even spring fever are soma of its effects, he contended. Reaction Noted Pain in an abscessed tooth may be due in some degree to high atmospheric pressure; the ability of an athlete to perspire and the tone of his muscles vary with the air pressure; the nervous, mental and even di gestive systems react to the stimulus of air pressure. In normal persons, Dr. Peter sen said, high barometric pres sure increases the blood pres sure and with cold temperatures when the blood runs fast, you feel full of pep. However, when the pressure makes the blood sluggish the effect is to put you in the dumps. Changes in atmospheric pres sure work the hardest suffering on the young, old and sick. Ordinarily healthy persons, the doctor explained, can readily adjust their bodies to outside influences like a thermostat. Changes Warn . Dr. Petersen said changes in the barometer should serve as warning to physicians to be especially watchful over their patients. On the basis of a survey, the doctor concluded that the death rate is in direct proportion to the ups and downs of the at mospheric pressure. Sudden in creases or decreases in the pres sure, he declared, often will show an adverse, effect on pa tients who-appeared to be on the road to recovery and some times the shock is so great it causes death. aTT- N: ' -if- - If s FLORA F IN EARLY DIES IN ,F DAY FILMS Hollywood, Flora Finch, a edienne of the is dead after y Jan. 5. famous film corn nickelodeon days, ears of obscurity.

With the Finch and Bunny comedy team disrupted by his ! death in 1915, Miss Finch's pop ularity declined and there were years of slim earnings. But for the past decade or more she was back on a regular salary, playing bit and extra roles at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios. Never married, she kept her personal history to herself and was chary about telling her age. She must have been past 70. Traffic Toll Portland. Jan. 5.
