Fat, Heart
Risk Said
Acceptable
By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York - (UPD - Because
of all the medical tish-tish
over heavy people, it will
a jm&t2r:n come as a
shock that a
r e 1 a tion be-
X tA
i iween a lot 01
body fat and a
f higher risk of
j heart - artery
disease has
ribeen proved
y,-m. a scientifi-
cally accept-
dcios smiui . able manner
for the first time.
However, it failed to show
that being overweight with
out being excessively fat im
poses an added risk. To many
that will sound impossible,
but it isn't. A so-called "nor
mal" weight for a person of
your age, height, and sex is
taken from a chart, like those
on penny weighing machines.
Other Thing Excluded
The chart figure is the av
erage weight of a large num
ber of persons of your age,
height, and sex. But it does
not take into account other
things besides fat which could
push your. weight, above this
average,, such as a heavier
than average skeleton and so
heavy muscles.
Like, interested scientists
the world over, Dr. Kenneth
Sanders was bothered by this.
Almost all studies implicating
body fat as a factor in the
on-set of heart-artery disease
were baed on body weights
ratner tnan on body fat
He took 48 men who had
had heart attacks. He "match
ed" them with 52 men of the
same ages, heights, and
weights who never had had
a heart attack. Then he meas
ured the amounts of fat on
the bodies of heart-attack vic
tims and the "controls."
Significant Difference
There was no difference in
how the body weights of
heart-artery disease victims
and of the "controls" compar-
:ed to the normal weights
for men of their ages and
heights. But there was a most
"significant" difference in the
masses of body fat on the pa
tients and "controls."
Sanders works in London
and reported to the technical
journal, "The Lancet." He
said he had answered the

Ground spraying with ORTHO'Endrin is the most effective
most economical method for control of orchard mice.
Up until now, the control of orchard mice
has been an expensive, time-KXHisuming
task. Previously used control measures
such as hand-baiting, and the use of wire
mesh screen, required costly hard labor
and were not always effective. Now,
ground spray with ORTHO Endrin gives
you a sure, efficient method of control.
For complete information on the con
trol of orchard mice, call your nearest
