Too Much Sun on Skin Makes One
Look Old, Dermatologist .Asserts
Honolulu, T. H. 'U.R The
thought of a travel poster tan
may lure you to this island para
dise, but one of the nation'
leading skin specialists says
Hawaii's special brand of sun
shine can make you look older
thsn your years.
Dr. John H Lamb of Okla-

SO Proof. Dist. from jrain. Ste. Pierre Smirnoff
f Is. (0I . of Heubleln), Hartford, Conn., U.S.A.
homa City was one of 300 skin
doctors who attended the eighth
annual meeting of the Pacific
Dermatologic Association here.
"Sun ages the skin," the tall,
graying dermatologist said in an
interview. "Too. much of it over
long periods of time destroys the
elastic fibers, or connective tis
sues, in the skin and they be
come degenerated. ,
"These fibers are like rubber
bands. They hold the skin tight.
So if you overdo it, even with a
tan, the rays get down into the
connective tissues."
Avoid Noon-day Sun '
He warned that the sun
"causes wrinkled skin and makes
a 40-year-old woman look like
she's 80."
Dr. Lamb explained that sun
rays in Hawaii are about the
same as anywhere else in the
United States. But he added that
the big difference is that their
reflection from the ocean greatly
increases their intensity and
burning power.
"Moderate sun and bathing is
healthful," Dr. Lamb said. "It is
a wonderful feeling on your
body. It has a tonic effect, and
it helps form Vitamin C."
However, the doctor cautioned
sunbathers to "stay out of the
intensity of the sun."
"Go out in the early morning
or late afternoon," he added.
"The noon-day sun hurts you
because the rays come straight
down."

Dr. Lamb said if you must go
out in the midday sun, smear
your body with some type of sun
burn cream "that will knock out
the sunburn rays." For ethical
reasons he couldn't suggest any
special brand names, but he said
to look on the label of the bot
tle or jar for these protective
chemicals: paramino benzoic
acid or menthol anthranolite.
Looking older than your years
and suffering a painful burn
aren't the only dangers of over
doing sun bathing. Skin cancer
is another big threat. Dr. Lamb
theorized that island sun is prob
ably responsible for giving
Hawaii one of the highest skin
cancer rates in the United
States.
Dr. Lamb said there are as
many skin cancers in Hawaii as
in Dallas, Tex., which is the
heart of the cancer belt." The
skin specialist, added:
"There is no doubt in our
minds that heat infra-red rays
has a lot to do with causing
cancer." .

Democrats To Gel
Fresh Farm Odor
Chicago (U.R) Democrats
will nominate their presidential
candidate this year, as in 1952,
just over the corral fence from
the world's largest livestock
yards.
But the sprawling square miles
of livestock pens will contribute
only a "good, fresh farm odor" to
the atmosphere, stockyards peo
ple said, and if there's a smell
within huge International Am
phitheater it will come from
burning political issues.
"There's nothing here but a
good, fresh farm odor within the
yards," William Wood Prince,
president of Chicago Stock
Yards, said.
Any lingering fragrance of the
cattle, hog and sheep pens is re
moved by air conditioning in the
ampitheatre, officials p o i n ted
out. The air is sweetened by a
s p e cial wintergreen chemical
which is fed into the ventilating
system.
One worker in the vicinity
said, however, that an unpleas
ant odor hangs over the area "if
there's a rainy day, a heavy mist
and a southwest wind" blowing
from rendering plants west and
southwest of the livestock yards.
"Then we just have to pray
that the wind changes direction,"
he said.
To keep livestock odors to a
minimum, the stockyards com
pany keeps about 50 men busy
constantly with more than $250,
000 worth of power sweepers,

Planned at Library
To Aid Organizations
To assist local organizations
and groups with program plan
ning, the Medford Public library
has begun compilation of a
speakers' directory as part of its
service, according to Librarian
Helen Webster.
The project, a continuing one.
will make an extensive listing
of local speakers available to
program chairmen and other rep
resentatives in the area.
"We hope the speakers' file
will make it possible for organ
izations to plan interesting and
worthwhile programs more
easily," she said.
Data Included
The file will include such data
as the speaker's subject, whether
or not a fee is charged, and
whether audio-visual or other
equipment is used to supplement
the talk. Included in the file
will be representatives from
business and professional groups,
social groups, agriculture, indus
try, merchandising, schools,
churches, federal, state, county
motorized scoops, loaders, dump-
uu-tia iiia tiduiur-urawn irau-
and city agencies, as well as
community service and other
groups.
The librarian emphasized that
the library assumes no responsi
bility for topics selected or for
bookings of the speakers. Actual
scheduling and all arrangements
will be made by the specific
group presenting the program.
Those who wish to be included
in the speakers' directory, or
who have suggestions regarding
speakers who might be inter
ested, should telephone the Med
ford Public library at 2-2000.
Mrs. Joyce Fuller, assistant li
brarian, is in charge of the compilation.
JAIL RAMP-AGE
Beckley, W. Va. (U.R) Ramps,
a form of wild onion with an es
pecially penetrating odor, crea
ted a rampage in the Raleigh
County Jail here. A visitor left
some with an inmate, who de
voured them with great gusto,
despite moans from other prison
ers. Said an official of the jail,
"I guess there's no better place
to eat ramps than in jail."
