Excess Body Weight Energy Use Noted Cleveland (Science Service) It takes more energy to carry 50 pounds oi excess fat than to carry 50 pounds of lead, researchers reported at the American Dietetic Asso ciation meeting here. Drs. E. R. Buskirk, R. H. Thompson, R. Moore and G. D. Whcdon of the National Institute of Arthritis and Metabolic Diseases, Bcthcsda, Md., studied the metabolism of four obese women main tained on 650 to 1,000 calories per day. They found that it was easier for them to walk on a treadmill while wearing lead vests than to walk while carrying the same weight in excess fat. During the walking period the energy exerted and the calories burned up are in creased. But for the remain der of the day, in heavy per sons, less energy than usual is used. Thus the total cal aries used by the body dur ing the whole day is less than if no walking is done. Studies of one obese indi vidual subjected to cold also showed that about 50 per cent less energy is used by the fat than the thin in respond ing to cold. New Drugs Treat Blood Pressure Washington (Science Serv- ice)-The first large-scale con trolled test of newer antihy pertensive drugs in general use has been announced by the Veterans Administration after nearly two years of re search in eight VA hospitalan' Dr. Edward D. Freis of the Washington, D.C. VA hospi tal, was chairman of the study which involved some 320 pa tlenls with high blood pros sure. Patients with severe and moderately severe cases were given combinations of the tranquilizer reserpine with each of three nerve-blocking drugs-mccamylamine, chlori- sondamine and pcntolinium tartrate. All three were about equally effective in produc ing significant reductions in blood pressure. But undesirable reactions varied slightly, producing slightly more dryness of mouth and bladder difficulty with mccamylamine than the other two drugs. Chlorisonda mine treatment caused some visual disturbance. Chuck Wagon $1150 Served from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Weather FOHKCASTS Medford and vicinity: Cloudy and mild with rain tonight.

Live Parasite Is Used in Cattle Disease Vaccine Washington-lScience Serv- lce)-A vaccine made of weak ened live parasites is being used in Great Britain to com bat increasing parasitic infec tions in cattle. Irradiation of larvae by X-rays during ihe molting period weakens but docs not kill the parasites Dr. Ernest J. L. Soulsby, University of Cambridge, Eng land, said that a heavy dose of 60,000 roentgen units was used to weaken the larvae so that a live parasite vaccine could be made. The tiny larvae are like minute worms, a third of a millimeter in length and fine fiftieth of a millimeter across They are collected from the excreta of infected cattle, then irradiated before being put into vaccine that is injected into healthy cattle to prevent infestation. Vaccine Expensive The vaccine is expensive, Soulsby said, but a single shot, double strength, is ef fective, and costs the equiva lent of about $3.50 in U. S. money. Parasitic bronchitis is es pecially prevalent among Eng lish cattle. This sets up an irritation leading to pneumo nia and secondary infections that may be fatal. Although it is possible to work only with animals at present on parasitic immunol ogy, Soulsby said that not too far in the future it would have application for human beings. In an interview preceding his lecture, which was under the auspices of American In stitute of Biological Sciences, Soulsby said there are com mon parasitic cross-overs be tween cats, dogs and humans. Soulsby has just completed a lecture series at universities throughout the U, S., arrang ed and administered by a Na tional Science foundation grant.
