Women's News Social Events Nutrition Study Shows Seniors Eat Wrong Foods By CLAIRE COX United Press International New York 0JPD The aver age senior citizen tends to eat less of the right foods and weigh more than he should, a nutritional study shows. The study also found that although old people did not eat as they should, they ac knowledged that other seg ments of the population were doing better, nutritionally, than a generation ago. These conclusions were reached at The Age Center of New England, in Boston, in a study financed with grants from the U. S. Public Health Service and the National Vita min Foundation. A report on the findings, written by Dr. Charles S. Da vidson, Dr. Seymour Kauf man, Patricia Anderson and Jane Livermore, a nurse, was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Dr. Rcbert S. Goodhart. sci entific director of the Vita min Foundation, commenting on the report, said that age should be no excuse for inat tention to proper nutrition. Too Few Proteins "A large proportion of the elderly have much too low a daily intake of protein, vita mins and minerals, particular ly those who are socially iso lated," he said. Goodhart said that old per sons who eat alone generally do not do as well nutritional ly as those who have someone with whom to sit down at the table. The study showec' that the more isolated old persons ate a far smaller variety of foods than those who tended to be gregarious, but the lonely ones still were heavier than those who shared meals with others. Among those who usually ate alone, the daily intake of all nutrients except iron was less than in the other group Many were short on intake of vitamins A and C, riboflavin, niacin and calcium. Not i uddiiii Food fads held little inter est for the old people in gen eral. Only seven of the 130 persons studied went in for fad foods bought in health food stores. As far as calories were con cerned, the study found that the old persons generally con sumed the desired amounts. "The daily intake of pro tein and of vitamins and min erals, although highly vari able, was surprisingly low in some instances," the report said. and Mrs. Lewis Thompson, deputy great Pocahontas for Weatonka council. Mrt. Elsel't official visit coincided with a district session of the northern California and southern Oregon lodges held Saturday, June 9. Pocahontas lodge is the women's order affiliated with the Improved Order of Red Men. ". . . when vitamin intake was calculated from food alone (omitting that from multivitamin and similar sun- plements), a large proportion of the members were found to have relatively low daily in takes . . . however, many members were taking vitamin supplements." Most of the persons studied ate the usual three meals a day, although more than a third ate more frequently. More than half ate alone or most frequently alone and most did their own shopping, mainly at supermarkets, and carried their groceries home. Facilities for preparing food were generally adequate but a few had no refrigerator to use. "Annetites were eenerally said to be good or excellent," the report said, "although more thought of eating as a necessary activity than a pleasure."

So says Dr. Milton S. Os borne, head of the Pennsyl vania State university depart ment of architecture. It takes no magic wand, said Dr. Osborne - a dab of paint nere, a sprig of greenery there and, perhaps, a discreet building adjustment. The Penn State veteran of years of rejuvenating com munities cited Hollidaysburg Pa., as an example of how "beauty consultations" can make a town more pleasant, if not a glittering gem of urban glamour. Merchants along Allegheny street in the Blair county com' munity, lacking parking space and hamstrung by deterior ating buildings, were losing business to nearby shopping centers. They asked Osborne for ad vice. He asked for pictures of each building in the area and then, as is his custom, made free-hand sketches of how each could be made to look. He explained that a grill- work of mullions inside a plate glass window gives a more picturesque character and a more intimate scale to massive gleaming front. Flowers boxes and trees can do wonders, he added. Overhead signs were taken down and "suddenly the street seemed twice as wide." The fixup spirit spread to home owners along the side street of the community. The whole community was interested," Dr. Osborne said. "They felt like it belonged to them. And people did come back to Allegheny street to do their shopping." The community beauty con sultant always works through sketches with the help of his wife, who is also an artist, - Bakersfield Woman Makes Annual Visit Hornbrook - Mrs. Hattie Holland has arrived here from her home In Bakersfield, Calif., for her annual summer visit with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr, and Mrs. Dwain Hamner.

Reading last night about the trouble airline companies . are having with the flight engineers brought to mind a column published not long Bgo in the New York Times. The j writer, Brooks Atkinson, started out by asking "Doesn't anyone ever have a joyful experience with the airlines?" and continued by saying that he had been forced to take a train not long ago when an airline had "abandoned" him in the Atlanta airport, and had been comfortably and ef ficiently rescued by the train. . He pointed out that the discontented airline travelers are legion. Frank E. Shaffer of The Charleston Gazette, it seems, asks his friends "are you going first class or are you flying?" when he hears that they contemplate travel. A certain Jim Marshall of New York has a printed card that he presents to airline clerks. "What is it this time?" , the card wants to know. It Is signed by "The Wheals Club'' which is described as a group of citizens united in a com mon cause "We Hate Eastern Air Lines." Last summer Potpourri had a long conservation with a Washington state business man who travels a lot by air, both in the United States and in Europe he has his Million Mile card and has served on the advisory board of one of the major lines. He related a long list of grievances against air lines in general, but said some of the practices put into use by the companies such as making passengers confirm and re-confirm reservations and then confronting them with last-minute cancellations and changes, had been the result of the abuses of the passengers themselves. He sighed and said the whole mess seemed a vicious circle and admitted that he had been forced into the practice of making double reservations for flights on which he believed he absolutely must have space. He makes the second reservation in the name of his wife, secretary or one of his employees, and then makes a last-minute cancellation of the second one. He knows this is bad, but believes he is justified because so many times he had been assured of reservations and then : found there were none when he checked in at the airport. Later in our vacation we attempted to make reservations from Centralia for a Sunday flight from Portland to Med- j ford. On Tuesday we were informed that none were avail able, but that we would be put on the wailing list. Saturday : morning the agent called and said there had been a cancel- j lation, and the reservation was ours. When we boarded the plane in Portland Sunday there were exactly eight pas sengers on a plane which had seating space for about 20 persons. Standing in line in the Portland airport we witnessed an ncldent which, if typical of the traveling public, must result in grey hair for airline employees. A worried woman and her son, about 10, stood in the line next ours. When she reached the attendant, she told small bag and take the large The large bag was the fortnighter" type which she could scarcely lift, let alone lug it into the passenger section of a plane and stow it anywhere. j At length she was convinced that she must check the large piece of luggage, and then could not find her tickets. She decided they must be inside the bag and then searched ' her handbag for the luggage keys. This took quite some ' time. When they were found, she could not make any one fit the lock. At length the boy, who seemed strangely calm with such a nervous mother, took the keys, found the right one, opened the big bag, rummaged around and produced the tickets. All this went on while more restless and impatient kept warning the woman that she was in danger of missing her. flight. The woman and boy at length ran for the ramp and disappeared from sight. A relative in Centralia airport and of hearing the flight which these passengers planned to take had been cancelled; they could be transferred to another, but would have to pay an extra charge. in the line paid and in the meantime a man standing im mediately behind our relative said "Don't pay; they can't make you." So when it came her turn she said in a loud, firm voice that this was against airline regulations. The at tendant sighed, processed her ticket and let her proceed on the flight, without the extra money. Ditto the well-informed man traveler. ' Which brings us back to column. "Leo Gorin of Brooklyn has been scientifically an alyzing the metaphysics of bureaucracy. He thinks the phe- 1 nomenon is best explained by Finagle's Law: 'Once a Job is 1 fouled up, anything done to improve It only makes it worse'." j This coincides with the gloomy opinion 01 our wasnington state friend.
