o G SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, October 23, 1955 Back Stairs: Ham Left Off Ike's Diet By WARREN DUFFEE United Press Correspondent Denver (U.PJ Backstairs at the temporary White House: President Eisenhower's care fully regulated menus included meat at almost every meal, but so far his dieticians have never included ham. The main reason is simple he doesn't particularly care for it. Some dieticians consider even leanO ham a little more fatty than other meats. But as Press Secretary James C. Hagerty puts it,, "More or less, he's a beef and potato man. "I haven't seen him be over enthusiastic about harn since I have been with him," he said. ' So far, the President's menus have included steak, roast beef, chicken, lamb, roast pork, trout, squab and turkey but no ham. Reports from the bedside in dicate that ealthough the Pres ident likes almost everything, the steak and roast beef are among jkis favorites. Mr. Eisenhower injected his own hand into the ' planning of his 1600-calorie daily diet when he asked for his own version of his favorite dish quail has and got it. The succulent game birds, al ready dressed aed frozen, were flown from the White House freezer in Washington and the cooks dietitians at Fitzsimons Army Hospital followed the President's own recipe in pre paring the dish. False Symptoms Often Cause Worry About Heart Ills Minneapolis Out of the "many thousands of worried peo ple seeking examinations by heart specialists, two out of ev ery three persons will find they i have been worrying over false symptoms mistakenly associated with heart impairments, accord' ing to the medical department of Northwestern National Life In surance company. . Since the President's attack, many specialists report a sharp increase in requests for heart checkups. This is a wise precau tion, say the doctors; if one's heart is impaired, the earlier this is discoverer the better the chances for complete cure. If it is not impaired, a peculiarly de structive worry is halted. Worry has itself ultimately caused many serious nervous, troubles and actual organic ailments. Chest pains, either dull . or of the sharp stabbing variety, do not " necessarily indicate a heart condition, but may result instead from any of a score of other causes, such as digestive disturbances,51, nervousness, ' a rheumatic condition of the spine, or neuralgia of the chest mucles due to a cold. A prompt medical examination should be undergone however, as the symp toms may. indicate some condi tion which calls for treatment or a change in personal habits, even though the heart is not involved. '."Fluttering" heart sensations or skipped beats often alarm peo ple, particularly at night, but these are commonly the result of over-use of alcohol, tobacco, coffee, or caffeinized drinks, or of emotional tension, fatigue, or indigestion, particularly in the younger age groups. Here, too, a change in personal habits, as advised by a physician, may be all that is necessary for relief.. UF TORCH SNUFFED OUT Detroit (U.R) The gas-burning flame in a 60-foot torch rep resenting Detroit's United Foun--dation's Torch Drive was snuffed out Thursday night. The torch caught fire. "SOMETHING TERRIBLE" Gloria Vasquez, 19, from San Jose, Calif., sits in Brooks ville, Ind., police station after telling authorities she saw "something terrible" Sunday night in Chicago and that she was with "two fellows who dumped three boys" in the "Backstairs" readers will get the recipe as soon as the White House turns it loose. The President got so much en joyment out of his birthday pres ents from the pross corps at the temporary White House last week that he instructed Hagerty tc send each newsman a personal letter of thanks. The reporters gifts included a pair of red pajamas, gold em broidered with five stars on the collar and. "much better, thanks" on. the pocket; a cashmere muff ler, some playful western neck ties, and a recorded skit of their woes in covering his illness, capped by a vocal rendition of "Happy Birthday." Hagerty wrote thatt "Nothing pleased him more than did the gifts from you. We are having difficulty even in prying the Davy Crockett tie marked down to 3f2 cents away to send to David,", the President's grand son. He said "The President has examined his list of visitors to determine when fee will dazzle with the pajamas. I think Dr. White won and he has picked out the shirt to go with the se quined western tie. The soft grey muffler he wore out on the ter race yesterday and again to day." Dr. Paul Dudley -White, the Boston heart specialist, who ar rives tomorrow for his bi-weekly check on the president, may find his patient wearing some of the wildest attire in the his tory of coronary thrombosis. In his letter, Hagerty con tinued: -"To our disappointment, none of us are able to get the tape re cording out of his room so WE can hear It again. . lie also thought of providing mass sing ing lessons, but decided he loved every flat note." The press secretary said he signed the letters "rather than have the President sign so many," but "the words were vir tually dictation from the Pres 1JT3 .- -I- ... . - ; . - , Fashions liL '--''---ijaBrfc.- SBt;-:-:::?:.";::" itl-J&' R was; - BIGGEST BUY EVER!
