Senior Citizens
May Cause Hike
In Suicide Rate
London-IScience Service)-
More senior citizens commit
suicide than do persons in
any other age group. With
more persons living to age
60 or more, the suicide rate
will rise unless the medical
profession does something
about it, a Welsh doctor be'
lieves.
Oi 881 filicides in Wales
between 1931 and 1055. Dr
Alan Capstick of Whitchurch
Hospital. Cardiff. Wales.
found that nearly 40 per cent
of the persons who took their
own lives were more than 60
years old. This is a dispropor
tionately high percentage,
since the ovcr-60 age group
does not make up 40 per cent
of the population.
Clue Sought
Dr. Cnpstick checked sui
cide notes and statements by
persons who last saw the vic
times alive to see if there
was any clue that doctors
could use to identify potential
suicides.
He found that 39 per cent
of the suicides appeared de
pressed during their last
hours. Such depression was
reported most commonly in
suicides aged 60 or more.
Notes left by older victims
usually included complaints
of physical illness, references
to the hereafter and a con
cern for relatives.
About 35 per cent of all
suicides studied appeared nor
mal immediately before death
but most of them had been
depressed previously. These
suicides occurred most fre
quently below age 30. Dr.
Capstick said that the nor
mal appearance might be due
to the victim's giving up the
struggle and finding some
peace in the belief that It
was almost finished.
To Take Revenge
Notes left by those who
appeared normal or emotion
ally disturbed-irritable, an
gry, worried, afraid or suspi
cious-more often indicated
that the suicide was intended
to hurt or take revenge on
another person, in contrast
to the "complaint type" of
note loft by the severely de
pressed. Dr. Capstick also learned
that nearly 80 per cent had
been under a doctor's care
during the months before
death. This factor Indicates
that the doctors could prevent
some of the suicides If they
could recognize the danger
signals.
However, Dr. Capstick re
ported In the British Medical
Journal psychiatric treatment
cannot prevent all suicides.
The person who decides on
death and then acts quickly
probably can not be stopped.
And It Is doubhtful that medi
cal Intervention can save a
really determined would-be
suicide. Ninety-two of the per
sons studied committed sui
cide despite treatment in a
mental hospital.
Reluctant Satellite
Fell 10 Days Late
Washington (Science Serv
ice) - The U.S. Air Force's re
luctant satellite Discoverer
XI, which fouled up a ground
recovery attempt by staying
In orbit on April 16, has stop
ped spinning around the
earth.
The National Aeronautics
and Space administration's
control center at Goddard
Space Flight center here re
ports that the 310-pound cap
sule apparently fell from Its
shallow orbit on April 26 -ton
days later than planned.
This left three Vanguards,
three Explorers, the Transit
navigational satellite and the
Tyros satellite in orbit around
the earth. Also still In space
are two U.S. and two Russian
space probes - Pioneers IV
and V, and Luniks I and III.
The U.S. Air Force, mean
while, aald Its latest Informa
tion on Discoverer XI comes
from a publication of its Bal
listic Missiles division dated
April 27 stating that both
capsule and its final-stage
rocket were still In orbit.
Doctor Confused on
Kissing Question
Providence, R.I. - When
the number of cases of flu
here began to rise, Dr. Joseph
Smith, Providence superin
tendent of health, took to the
airwaves.
"Those attending parties
should not kiss with one an
other," he said.
"No kissing for the dur
ation of the winter season?"
Inquired hia Interviewer.
"No, I never said that," re
plied Dr. Smith. "A person
with a cold should avoid kiss
ing "
He pased, then added, "io
discriminate kissing,"
