Women's Work By VIVIAN 8AHDE United Press Staff t Correspondent New York (U.R) Around this time of year, a number of experts advance various theories about how to beat the heat. Just in case you could use some, here is a sampling of theo ries from a physical culturist, a dietician, a dancer, a decorat ing institute, and a psychologist. Paul Miller, who believes in relaxation of nerves through ex ercise and runs a New York school to teach his belief, nat urally plunges for the relaxation theory. "Frayed nerves," he main- ftalned, "step up the pulse rate. when your blood is flowing faster, you feel hotter." Eat Cool For those who have the cour age to take his treatment, here it is: 10 to 15 minutes of exercise a day; hot towels and massage at regular intervals. Dancer Alicia Alonzo, who spends her summers working out on the concert stages of her na tive Cuba, also subscribes to the exercise for coolness theory. She says she doesn't mind the heat because "I work off all my excess energy." Florence Brobeck, dietician and writer of cook books, be lieves your reaction to weather is directly related to your in take of calories. Comfortable eating during high - temperature days should comprise a low calory but not a reducing diet, she says. Her recommendation is about 1,500 calories daily in meats, fruits, and salads, leaving out as much fats and starches as pos sible. High school students, men who have to use physical energy in their work, and athletes, Miss Brobeck says, need about 2,400 calories of the same sort of foods. Think Cool The Decorative Fabrics Insti-i tute in New York suggests cool colors for slipcovers tints of green, blue or gray, or bright floral prints to give an illu sion of coolness. The institute also favors crisp white curtains fresh flowers around the house, and white decorative touches throughout. You'd expect a psychologist to j say you can beat the heat by ex ercising the power of mind over the discomfort of body, and i Thursday, August 13. 1153 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE ?

But if you're one of those who has tried this unsuccessfully there's at least one psychologist who won't' claim you're weak- minded. Dr. Charles McCormick. who teaches a personality adjustment course at the New School for So cial Research, believes that "the theory of the power of mind ov er matter is an ideal." The only thine to do in sum mer is to accent the fact that weather is weather, and it's big ger than you are, he adds.
