People write to ask if a "heart attack" always leaves the heart badly damaged, and my anwer is "No." There are are thousands of men and women who have little heart attacks in which there is but slight damage done to the h e a r t muscle. Per haps only a small bit of it dies, or the Alvatn coronary a r - tery never plugged up; it only went into spapin, and hence none of the heart muscle was damaged. In such cases, there Js no change in the electrocar diograms, which shows that there was not enough destruc tion of muscle to change the course of the heart-beat. Remarkable is the fact that, not infrequently, at the autop sy on a man who died with a sudden heart attack, no plug of coagulated blood is found in the usual place in a coro nary artery at the top of the heart. Perhaps the man died before a plug could form. The coronary arteries run around the upper end of the heart and supply most of the heart muscle with blood. The word "coronary" comes from a word-root meaning a crown. The ancient physicians thought of these two arteries 8s forming a crown on the top of the heart. Even when a small amount of henrt muscle is damaged in an attack, this amount may be so small that it docs not handicap the heart in its work as a pump; and hence it does not bother the man. He is able to go on walking down the street as fast as he ever did and without any anginal pain Often, he goes ahead and lives comfortably for many years no More Coddling Today, we doctors are learn ing not to coddle our patients too much after coronary at tack. Some able heart special ists maintain Hint their heart attack patients do much bet ter sitting up in a chair than lying in a bed. Some doctors let their patient walk around his room, and I like the idea; It seems logical. There is another possibility Shout quite a few of the spells that are supposed to lie heart attacks, and this is that if a little arlcry really plugged up, it happened up in the brain and not in the heart, 1 am sure of this when, after the spell, the patient has no difficulty with his heart; his distress is in his head, with perhaps some loss in ability and in memory, together with gome change in character. ! Oftentimes vuhun n l:w-tf,,l ' physician thinks that the pa tient had a little stroke, he calls It a "heart attack," be cause he knows that the fam ily will not mind having a relative with a heart attack when they would resent hav ing one with a stroke. Even In this day of college educations, many people are influenced in their thinking by the very ancient, but utterly ground less idea that in the case of a stroke, an angry God had struck the man down because He had caught him in some skullduggery which had been well concealed from friends and lownfolk! A New Term The mild strokes which leave only some defect in character or ability to get the I day's work done are due usu ally to a plugging-up of a lit tie artery in the brain; ihe big devastating strokes which, In a moment, throw a man to the floor with a paralyzed right side and an inability to say anything, are due usually to a rupture of an artery. Many physicians, in trying to avoid the haled idea that God struck the man for some good cause, now call a stroke a cer- ebro-vascular accident, or a Circulation of Newspapers at Peak Chicago mrii -Circulation of daily and Sunday newspapers in the United States and Can ada has climbed to a record high, according to a study Just released by the Audit Bureau of Circulations. The record. 114,044,118 combined aggregate total, was reached in the six-month pe riod ending March 31. The record was nchieved despite losses due to large circulation newspapers in five states going out of publication since a comparable study was made in llllil. the study said.

I prefer to use the old word stroke, which all of us know, and then to assure the patient that God had nothing to do with it. The moral o.' all this is, when you suffer a brief, dizzy spell - perhaps with a little chest pain, and the doctor calls it a heart attack - don't despair. You may have 20 good years still ahead of you. How is your heart? Maybe it's time for a checkup. You'll profit, too, from reading Dr. Alvarez' booklet "Heart Trou ble."

The amendments subcommission is the only body which still has some items to clean up. The subcommission will holds its final session next month to put final touches on the draft proposals for the council, opening in "t. Peter's Oct. 11. 70 Draft Proposals The Ecumenical press ser vice said the central commis sion discusseed a total of 70 draft proposals submitted by the specialized commissions, contained in 119 booklets for a total of 2,060 pages. The contents cover virtual ly all facets of Catholic church organization and doc trine, from "chastity and the family" to "the dress and tonsure of priests," problems of the press, cinema, radio and television and the great church - state issue of "reli gious liberty." Straw Hat Bandit Forgets Bank Loot Irvington, N.J. -IUPU- Au thorities were wondering to day if the straw hat bank bandit was careless or con science stricken. The bandit, replete with summer straw, strolled into the Supreme Savings & Loan association Monday and ask ed teller Edward Lapp to change a $10 bill. When Lapp, who was alone In the bank, produced the change the bandit pulled a gun and ordered him to fill a plastic brief case with money. Lapp stuffed $1,015 into the brief case and the bandit left, but the teller got a descrip tion of his car. About an hour later police found the car, reported stolen earlier, abandoned in a near by parking lot. On its seat was all the stol en cash and the bandit's $10 in change. Several of the draft "Con stitutions" refer directly or indirectly to the great goal of the pontificate of Pope John XXIII-eventual reunification of all Christians in the church of Rome Four Draft Decrees They include four draft de crees on "Catholic Ecumen ism," "The Need to Pray for Union," "The Word of God as a Means of Union" and "Reli gious Liberty." All of these were submitted by the secre tariat for the union of Chris tians under German-born Au gustin Cardinal Bca. , Indirectly important for the unification movement were drafts on the problems of Catholics of the Eastern rite, who could conceivably serve as a bridge towards the East ern Orthodox churches. The Ecumenical news ser vice, in reporting on last week's final meeting, said the Catholic church has never stopped its work towards unity and "not only intends to help with prayers the good will of those who seek union, but also encourages all work on the theological ana pas toral level to make the center of unity shine more clearly."

He and his family are now residing in Rockville, Md., a suburb of Washington, D.C. All of the 70 draft propos als were worked out by the specialized commissions and reviewed by the central com mission which in turn sub mitted them to the Pope. Final decision on whether each proposal should be placed before the council rests entirely with the pon- Pine Association Gets Safety Award Portland -IUPH- The Nation, al Safety council has present ed an award for progress in industrial safety to the West ern Pine association.
