The possible result of such expe riments would be proof that even moder- &kM.kA ate exercise Delos Smith couid prevent people getting overweight. This is a hypothesis, you understand, which is a word muchly used by scientists to describe a logical supposition needing to be proved or dis proved. The core of this hy pothesis is that people in our take-it-easy age don't exercise enough to rouse their appe tite chemistries. Scientific studies in the past few years have shown that military cadets . spend 173i hours out of every 24 lying,, sitting or standing, and coal miners do those things 1894 hqurs a day. Since those are exceeding "active" call ings, the rest of us can't be more active. Originally Used Rats The American physiologist, Dr. J. Mayer, originated the hypothesis back in 1954 with experiments with rats which science now considers "classi cal." His rats were required to walk a treadmill for from one to six hours a day. For rats that is light to heavy exercise. And these rats automatically and pre sumably unthinkingly adjust ed the amounts they ate to the amounts of exercise they had had. As the result, their weights remained constant there 'were no overweight problems among them. But when they were al lowed to walk the treadmill for less than an hour a day, they didn't eat less. In fact, they ate more and fat rats Leon's January MISS were the result. This would ' indicate that exercise is need ed- in order to trigger appe tite chemistry which, once triggered, adjusts the amounts needed to the amounts actually needed. These simple, clear - cut facts about rats have stimu lated physiologists around the world, giving many the yen to repeat the experiments in people if only it could be done somehow. So far no physiologists, has figured out how to do it, but R. Passmore of the University of Edin burgh has now done it in the next best thing a dog. Passmore, reporting to the technical journal, "The Lan cet," noted that many of his scientific colleagues say ex ercise doesn't cause people to lose weight that exercise promotes appetite which in creases food consumption. But with people who sit or stand around most of the time which most people are said by science to do that probably isn't so, he said. First, Mayer's experiments in rats and now his experi ments with a dog, supports the hypothesis that "certain minimal level of physical ac tivity is necessary for the ap petite to function with pre cision and to adjust food in take to requirements." Weight Reduction Classes Scheduled The Oregon Heart associa tion has announced that those desiring to join a weight reduction class should contact their family physi cian. There is no charge for the classes, an annual project sponsored by the Heart asso ciation as a public service, a spokesman said.
