New Low-Fat Diet Book
Published by University
Eugene - A book to help
guide the person who has
been placed by his doctor on
a low-fat diet has been pub
lished by the University of
Oregon.
The book, entitled "Low-
Fat-Diet - Reasons, Rules, and
Recipes," was written by Dr.
Roy L. Swank, professor and
head of the division of neurol
ogy at the University of Ore
gon Medical school, and Miss
Aagot Grimsgaard, research
associate.
The 143-page, paperback
publication contains more
than 300 recipes to guide the
housewife in preparing meals
which are palatable and nu
tritious even though the fat
intake has been restricted.
Many of these recipes were
contributed by patients who
are following the low-fat diet.
The book is the first of a
series of books by Medical
School staff members planned
for publication by the Uni
versity of Oregon.
Much of the material con
tained in the book is based
on research performed by Dr.
Swank and Miss Grimsgaard
at the University of Oregon
Medical school and earlier at
McGill University Medical
School, Montreal. It reports
their ten-year experience with
the low-fat diet in the treat
ment of patients suffering
from multiple sclerosis, a de
generative disease of the cen
tral nervous system.
In addition to the use of the
low-fat diet in multiple sclero
sis, "scientists throughout the
world are daily piling up evi
dence that indirectly indicates
that a high-fat intake may be
a factor in the development
of vascular disease, and that
a low-fat intake may be help
ful to those who already have
the disease," Dr. Swank writes
in the introduction.
For this reason, the Oregon
Heart Association has pur
chased 1000 copies of the book
for distribution to doctors in
the state particularly interest
ed in the problems of heart
disease.
"Being a strong advocate of
the low-fat diet, I welcome the
timely publication of this
book," Dr. Roger H. Keane,
president of the Oregon Heart
association, said. "It is my
opinion that, in spite of the
unsettled status of this method
of attack on cardiovascular
disease, we shall come to real
ize its need. It seems rather
Family Life
Topic of PTA;
Officers Named
A panel consisting of Dr.
June Byers, the Rev. Richard
Jones, and Lawrence Tweedy
presented a discussion on the
topic "What Makes for Strong
Family Life" 'at the Dad's
night observance of Jackson
Parent - Teacher association
March 13.
A group of committee men
from Cub Scout Pack 8 led
the flag salute which was fol
lowed by a brief business
meeting.
Officers for the coming year
who were elected at this time
are Mrs. Richard Phillips,
president; Mrs. Bernard Rice,
vice president; Mrs. Donald
Stroh, secretary, and Mrs.
John Wimer, treasurer.
Parents of children in the
second grade served refresh
ments.
foolish for all those who have
reached the adult state not to
take advantage of the knowl
edge that doctors have ac
quired concerning the control
of heart disease. This book
offers the simplest method of
attacking the problem of fat
intake control in an accurate
manner."
The diet may also be useful
in the control of obesity and
in other disorders in which a
high-fat intake appears to be
a complicating or a causative
factor, Dr. Swank points out.
In addition to the recipes,
the book contains a brief his
tory of dietary fat, an outline
of the development of the low
fat diet, and general instruc
tions for going - and staying
on the diet.
Publication of the book was
made possible by funds held
for the neurology division by
the Medical Research Founda
tion of Oregon, Inc., a private,
non-fat organization support
ing medical research in the
state. Proceeds from the sale
of the book will be used for
continued research in the
UOMS neurology division.
Copies of the book are
available for $2.50 from book
stores or University of Oregon
Publications, Eugene, Oregon.

The world's largest maker of
hardwood floors gives some
helpful floor care tips
D 'Rood floors require different care than lino
leum, vinvl and others. For example, ood
floors should never be vashed with water.
After years of testing, we learned dry cleaning
is the only right way to care for them.
You just pour Bruce's special combination
of dry cleaning ingredients and liquid wax on
the floor. The most stubborn marks, dirt and
old wax wipe away instantly. All the dirt comes
up on the cloth. On the floor is lots of rich,
clean wax. A light buffing and
you're all done in half the usual
time with no messy, hard scrub
bing. You can touch up heavy traf
fic areas again and again without
redoing the whole floor.
We recommend bruce cleaning
wax for a rich coat of wax,'and
BRUCE floor cleaner where less
wax is desired. Both work their
clean-as-you-wax wonders on
linoleum, too. Try this easy, proper method next
time you wax and see the beautiful difference.

tips on the care of wood, cork, linoleum, vinyl,
