Chef Stewart American Women Flabby Says Crusading Surgeon By PATRICIA McCORMACK United Press International New York -(UPD- There's flab in your future if you sit ' to much - munching or not., First it's flab. Then it's fat. A lady surgeon waging a crusade against sedentarian ism - sitting too much-claims that flab and fat are making American females unsightly, ill and tense. Dr. Christine E. Haycock, of Newark, N. J., said in an interview that too many American women excuse their bulges by saying - "I haven't got time for exercise." "What they probably mean is that they're just too tired most of the time to exercise," Dr. Haycock said. "Or that they're a trifle lazy." "Show me the busiest wom an," she said, "and I'll find time in her calendar for exer cise on a regular basis." ' Dr. Haycock, 36, practices what she preaches by holding down the pitcher's job with the North Bergen Co-eds soft ball team. ; The team recently won the New Jersey State Amateur Softball' association's cham pionship. , The pitcher-surgeon takes a lot of ribbing from colleagues about her softball sideline, but she aims to ke'ep at it. "I have to be as cool as a cucumber in surgery," she said. "I have to sit a lot dur ing my office practice.- The softball gives me a chance to keep in shape and it gives me an opportunity to let off steam in a grand way. "That's the second most wonderful thing about regular exercise - letting off steam and releasing tensions. I get nervous and upset over the game. I sweat, swear and worry. "It's an outlet and it saves me from beating up my blood pressure, stomach and intes tinal tract. You need an out let - especially if (you work under pressure every day." If you think you're too busy to find time for regular ex ercise, look at Dr. Haycock's schedule. She has office hours three afternoons and two eve nings a week. One night a week she attends an Army Reserve meeting. She's a ma jor in the Medical corps. Most of the rest of the time she's in the surgical suite at the hospital, making visits to patients or tending to her household duties. But two nights a week, she's out pitching. And usual ly, there's a game over the week end, Dr. Haycock figures that female office workers and suburban housewives can find the time for regular physical activity - Just as she does. - '"Vhat's silly about calling up your neighbors and asking tnein to help you form a soft ball team," she asked. "They may laugh or say they don't have time. But get them out to play ball just once and you'll all sec what fun it is."

' "They sit all day, their feet swell," she said. "When they get home at night they flop in front of the television set. Most don't even have the good sense to prop up their feet." "The office workers should have regular exercise periods during their working day and golf or softball on week ends - plus an hour's walking a day."
