Studies of Sheep
May Solve Human
Pregnancy Ills
Los Angeles (Science
Service) Experiments with
sheep may provide a clue to
the mystery of toxemia of
pregnancy one of the major
causes of death in expectant
human mothers.
A research team, Dr. Nich
olas S. Assail and Lawrence
Longo, University of Cali
fornia Medical school, Los
Angeles; Dr. Louis W. Holm,
University of California, Dav
is; Dr. Yale Katz, University
of Southern California, and
Dr. Leon C. Chesley, State of
New York university, is in
vestigating a toxemia-like dis
ease which occurs sponlane
ously among pregnant sheep
Nine of 10 smyptoms of hu
man toxemia, whose cause is
unknown, are found in the
sheep disorder. These in
clude the fact that the disease
occurs sporadically during
the latter part of pregnancy
in both humans and sheep,
occurs more frequently in
short, obese types, is more
frequent with large or multi
ple fetuses, manifests itself
in prominent nervous system
and visual disturbances, con-
culsions and coma. A rapid
Improvement Is noted in both
humans and sheep following
delivery.
Mysterious Disorder
One mystery about sheep
toxemia is that high blood
pressure, a characteristic of
human toxemia, does not oc
cur. This difference is being
investigated at the present
time. Spontaneous toxemia
among sheep seems to be as
sociated with lack of exer
cise. Physical stress such as
snowfalls and rainstorms may
precipitate the sheep disorder
by a mechanism not yet clear.
So far the study of the dis
ease in humans has not been
productive as to its cause or
cure. The disease can now be
produced experimentally In
sheep, which are gentle and
easily managed animals for
experimental work under
carefully controlled condi
tions. For this and other reas
ons, sheep studies may be
more profitable and help to
determine the cause of hu
man toxemia.
Poor Italian Town
Uses Barter System
Vnlle Agricola, Italy-rtJPII-Money?
It's hardly ever seen
in Valle Africola, one of
Italy's poorest towns. The
town is so poor that It uses
the ancient system of barter,
rather than money.
For instance, a man can
pay for a haircut at the -town's
only barbershop with three
cauliflowers or a dozen eggs.
A shave costs one cauli
flower. Some persons say the town
of 1,300 people may be the
poorest In Italy. At least it
is the only town so poor that
it is exempted from paying
taxes.
The town, 30 miles from
Naples, is located atop a 2,-200-foot
mountain and Is sur
rounded by rocky land from
which most of the residents
squeeze out a bare living
The richest man in town is
Giuseppe Risslo, 70, who gets
a $105 monthly pension for
disabilities suffered in World
War I.
Raking Reported
Good for Lawns
East Lansinir 1UiMi ntpn
Don't spare the rake on your
iawn.
Raklns and fprtill7lm
lawns are recommended by
James Tyson, extension tin
specialist at Michigan Stat
university.
Raking should be dun
with a steel garden rake to
remove sticks, stones, leave
and other debris which hi
cumulate.
In addition to being good
for the lawn, this will help
keep the lawn mower in good
condition by eliminating the
causes of nicked or broken
blades.
Feeding your lawn wilh
me proper lertllizer Is tlu
most important, however, ac
cording to Tyson. You car
determine w h I c h fertlllzei
your lawn needs by having
the soil analyzed.

Irregular Heart
Can Cause Many
Olher Troubles
Los Angeles-(Science Serv-lce)-The
action oi an irregu
lar heart may cause all kinds
of trouble - Including blood
starvation and perhaps severe
damage to brain, kidneys,
stomach and intestines.
Using a "space age" elec
tromagnetic flowmeter, Drs.
Eliot Cordav and David w
Irving of the Universilv uf
California Medical school and
Cedars of Lebanon Institute
for Medical Research have
demonstrated that irregular
heart action can reduce blood
flow to these organs by as
much as 75 per cent.
Irregular heart action in
cludes premature beats (sys
toles) and racing heart (tachy
cardia). Such irrcRular action
may be caused by coronary
heart disease, an overactive
thyroid, or other factors.
Flow Reduced
When such action occurs,
the heart chambers do not fill
up enough. The heart pumps
virtually empty, failing to
Send Sufficient blnnd tmnl.
to other oreans Even .-iri,-
heart action has been return
ed to normal by medication,
tne blood flow to other organs
may remain reduced fnr na
long as two hours.
ouch a reduction in the
brain may bring on a stroke
Willi attendant paralysis or
mental disturbance. In the
stomach, impaired blood flow
will cause distention or ulcer
ation. In the kidneys de
creased function will follow.
Drug Use Urged
The investigators urged
that physicians make every
effort to prevent irregular
heart action by use of proper
drugs now available.
The flowmeter used in the
study is based on the princi
ple developed by Dr. Alexan
der Kolin. tICLA hinnhvsiciat.
It is connected to computers
(of the kind used to guide
space rockets) which help to
ngure me complex mathe
matics of flow problems.
The research was supported
In part by the Ventura and
Santa Barbara County Heart
associations.
Laughing Helps
ToCuHensions
East, Lansing, Mich.-ltlPD-To
get along in the present
world of tensions and trou
bles, you have to learn to
laugh and cut the tensions.
That is the advice of Betty
Garliek who heads a nursery
school at Michigan State uni
versity and in her work, has
picked up some pointers on
what can make kids laugh.
One way to encourage
humor is to let a child hear
songs, stories and poems bor
dering on the humorous
and enjoy them yourself.
Miss Garliek suggests
adults laugh at "jokes" o(
children even though they
may not be funny. It helps
the children.

Bears Up a Tree

Newport, Ark.-(VPD-T h r e e
bears up a tree almost turn
ed the household of Mrs.
John Keel upside down recently.
They made a coward of
her once fearless Dalmatian
and brought a crowd of 75-
100 persons stomping all over
her lawn. The crowds even
kept Keel's tractors from
crossing the road.
Efforts to chase the bears
away proved futile. They even
failed to acknowledge two
jars of honey placed on the
ground. The bears left when
they were ready.
