..... j , Retirement Home Price Includes Medical Project Seal Beach, Calif.-fljpt-Med-leal care i9 included in the purcnase price ot property at this unique southern Califor nia beach retirement colony. Already 3,000 persons over tne age ol 52 have moved to Rossmoor Leisure World. By the time the project is com pleted it is expected 60,000 will reside in the $150 million community 25 miles south of Los Angeles, according to builder-developer Ross Cor tese. The medical and recreation al plan at the development is managed by the "Golden Rain Foundation," a non-profit organization. Foundation administrator is Lewis M. Letson, former administrative executive of St. Francis hos pital, Lynwood, Calif. I he Foundation provides complete medical and nursing care, as well as drugs. There are five full-time and two! part-ume physicians on the siaii in addition to many con sulting specialists. Hospital ization is not nrnviripH The Medical center includes iwo operating rooms for mi nor surgery, complete x-ray facilities, a laboratory, physi cal therapy and 10 three-room examining suites. Designed for Care All of the apartments are designed for nursing care. There are no steps, wide hall ways, built-in seats in show ers and rolled curbs. Prices for apartments in Rossmoor range from $9,950 for a one bedroom to $13,600 for two-b e d r o o m s. After downpayments of about $1, 000, monthly payments run from $94 to a maximum of $122.50. The apartments are fully electric with built in heating, oven-range, refrigerator and garbage disposers. The medical costs are in cluded in the price. "This is free enterprise's solution to the nation's prob lem of housing for the elder ly," says Cortese. "It also in dicates there are better solu tions to the medical needs of the elderly than socialized medicine." Study Heart The medical staff at Ross moor is cooperating with two medical research specialists . working under a federal grant to study heart and vascular distase. They are Dr. Paul Ehrlich, director of heart dis ease control station, U.S. Pub lic Health Service San Fran cisco, and Dr. Reuel Stations, associate professor of epidem iology, medical school, Uni versity of California at Berk eley. "We are enthusiastic about the possibilities of this re search since this will be the first time an accurate study can be made of this number of people in one area," Letson said. "It will also be the first opportunity to establish standards or criteria of defini tion on specifics." Rossmoor also has a com plete line of recreational facil ities, including hobby shops, a golf course, swimming pool and a $526,000 2.500-seat amphitheater modeled after the Hollywood Bowl. A shop ping center has just been com pleted. Bus service is avail able to all points within the 541 acres of the Leisure World. MKOFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Environment Is Factor in Ability Stanford, Calif. - OiPil -What ever difference may exist be tween the achievement levels of American whites and Ne groes can be explained by en vironment, according to a group of Stanford university anthropologists. "Difference in partici p a tion in the existing society" was the reason given by the anthropologists in discussing the findings of Army IQ test ers who reported that Negroes scored an average of 20 points lower than whites. "In IQ tests for any group," Professor Roy D'Andrade said, "if the person tested must manipulate unfamiliar symbols, he is not likely to do well." D'Andrade said "illiterate New York Negroes score bet ter on IQ tests than illiterate Alabama whites." The IQ of any individual, he said, "can move up as much as 20 points after long residence in New York." FORGETS CHOPPERS Newburyport. Mass. - m -Mrs. R. Catherine Welch told police Tuesday that someone had slept overnight in her car, parked in front of her home. She said she found a set of false teeth in the car the next morning.
