(UPI Telephoto) Man Dodging me Syracuse, N. Y. - (Science Service) - In his exhaustive struggle to adapt to today's society of rigid orderliness and conformity, man persists in using the escape hatches of barbiturates and tranquil izers rather than trying "the permanent cure - mental dis cipline through education," said Dr. G. Arnold Cronk, associate professor of health and preventive medicine at Syracuse university, at a synv posium here on Creative Arts Education, , "This dysadaptation of man to his environment has result ed in psychic, psychosomatic and somatic disorders result ing in ulcers, hypertension and possibly arteriosclerosis," Dr. Cronk said. Setting materialism, status and technology as supreme goals was lamented by Dr. Cronk. He said, "it is unfortunate that today's men and women are born at a time when edu cation is devoted to what sells best as. determined by Madi son Avenue techniques. "The time has come when it is imperative that we care fully examine the genetic and biological abilities of man in relationship to the demands of cultural and educational sys tems. Our failure to assume this responsibility would, I am afraid, put the seal of doom on the continued evolu tion of man and his culture," Dr. Cronk continued. In regard to creativity, Dr. Cronk said that If it "is de fined to mean adventure Into the unknown, there has de veloped a tremendous stagna tion of creativity. We are rapidly running out of the ideas upon which tomorrow's culture will depend."

Sparks Administratrix .5 Farrell & Blackhurst ' Attorneys for Administratrix Truck Driver's Sea! Cushion Reduces Fatigue Los Angeles-(Sclence Serv ice) A new self-aligning seat cushion that reduces foot swelling, leg numbness and other causes of truck driver fatigue has been developed. It was designed by Dr. Laurence E. Morehouse and his associates in the Human Performance Laboratory of the University of California, Los Angeles, and tested by five drivers of the North American Van Lines on cross country trips. Dr. Morehouse, who super vised the truck drivers' test ing, said the scat cushion em bodies a new and revolution ary concept of seating. It supports the body's weight on the ischial tuberos ities (seat bones) instead of the fleshy, vein-lined thighs, and employs a system of soft springs which, due to the driv er's continual change of posi tion, are in constant though barely noticeable motion. Movements Maintained This maintains the massag ing or "pumping" actions of muscular movements even though the driver is sealed. "Studies indicate that stop page of normal circulation and hydrostatic blood pooling from thigh pressure during long periods of driving may be responsible for many driv ing accidents because of slowed reactions and black outs," Dr. Morehouse said. The self-aligning seat cush ion, now being produced com mercially, is applicable to present truck chassis or frames without disturbing shock absorbent units or seat backs already in use, he noted. Dr. Morehouse, a professor of physical education and a noted physiologist, specializes in fatigue factors as related to human performance. His re search led to the development of the ripple sole for shoes. Beginning Life Topic of Research Washington - (Science Serv ice) - "Where did I come from? How did life begin? These are questions asked both by children and scien tists; but no answers yet have been found to satisfy either group. Research, cohtroversy and theory on the subject matter are explored in Science by Dr. Sidney W. Fox of the chemistry department, Florida State university, Tallahassee. The range, is from Darwin's theory of evolution to the cur rent attempt to produce a liv ing cell synthetically. Adding to the confusion surrounding the search is the thought, suggested by the' au thor, that even now life may be just beginning. Although we can with certainty say only that life arose at least once, there Is reason to believe that life can, or even must, arise in many places at many times." Dr. Fox suggests the possi bility that "we fall to recog nize life beginning anew be cause it so resembles unevolv cd descendants of primitive forms already here." Macmillan Receives Khrushchev Letter London-IUPII-Prline Minister Harold Mncmillan received a 15-page leJUer from Soviet Premier Nlkita Khrushchev today, the Foreign Office an nounced.

Sabin of the University of Cincinnati's College of Medi cine told the Fifth Interna tional Poliomyelitis Congress here. This experience demon strates, Dr. Sabin told Science Service, the safety of this kind of vaccine under the condi tions of typical American cities. Given proper leadership, Dr. Sabin believes, America could achieve as good results with live polio vaccine as in Soviet countries where such live vaccine has been used in volving 80,000,000 people" The widely used Salk vac cine in America is a killed virus vaccine.
