4 D THURSDAY, DECEMBER 5, 18113 MEDKORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON is f , f 'tv"WK mum ft 4 1S ONLY A LOCK SAKE Stephen Quan, 18, recovers his ticking time lock safe which caused a bomb scare in Los Angeles that emptied the USC library o( 1,000 persons. Police evacuated and found the "bomb" after receiving a phone call. They rushed it out to the center of the Coliseum football Held as guards scaled off the area. Quan returned to the library explaining the feared "bomb" was really his time-lock safe. "I want to put in as many study hours as I can to do my best work," he said. "I decide how many hours I want to study each day, then put my trans portation money in the safe and set the timer. Since my money is locked up I can't leave until the time is up." (UPI) Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- AVERY TIMID boxer listened apprehensively while his ambitious manager sought to match him against one of the most highly regarded men in hi? division. "Remember," '"- 1 " w i-v aw I una his manager, "I'm no good in short fights. I only get going when the other feller begins to lose his steam." The manager shook him off, and the match was scheduled. The fight was only two minutes old when the timid boxers worries proved amply justified. His opponent rained blows on him, and down he went. The count had reached "eight" when he rolled over on the can vas and gasped U his manager, "I told you I was no good in a short fight!" Overheard at a ladles' beauty parlor: "I don't know what the world's record is for the high jumps but I do know it's going to be broken when, my husband geuV the bill for the new evening dress I bought this morning!" In an examination paper, a Quaker lad described his sect: "They are very quiet, do not right, and never answer back." He added a postscript: "My father is a Quaker; my mother is not." Q 1863. by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by King Features Syndicit "Eat, Drink and Be Merry' But Shun Excess, Says Steincrohn Ity GKORALD S. SNYDER United Press International Every year, in this age of anx iety, the list of "don'ts" seems to lengthen by the dozen. "Don'tsmoke!""Don'tdrink!" "Don't be lazy!" "Don't eat too much!" "Don't worry!" and so on. Cheer up! You can actually eat, drink and still be merry re ports a retired doctor and author in a book, "Your Life to Enjoy" (Prentice-Hall), which claims that many of the so - called "health rules" can be broken by those with no history of serious medical troubles. D . Peter J. Steincrohn, a for mer fellow of The American Medical Association and retired Hartford, Conn., physician be lieves people are fools to smoke if they have sinus trouble, chron ic bronchitis, asthma, hyperten sion, stomach ulcer or coronary disease. But, writes the 64-year-old doctor (a steady smoker since the age of 18). "If you are at all concerned about the ill effects of tobacco, in the present state of our knowledge, I'd say better look more to your heart and ar terics than to fear of lung can cer." Air pollution, not tobacco, is the real cause of lung cancer, he believes. Alcohol? It can be a poison or a boon, he says. But it cuts ten sion and "when you prevent tension you reduce the possibil ities of coronary thrombosis, an ginal attacks, stroke, hyperten sion, diabetes, hyperthyroidism" If you take alcohol against doc tor's orders you may actually be committing slow suicide, he writes, but many over 40 who do not take alcohol might be bet ter off if they did. "People rare ly become alcoholics after 40." Computer Is Asked About Presidency PHOENIX. Ariz. (UPI) -Gerald L. Phillippe, president of the General Electric Co., here said some of his advanced research people working with computers became intrigued with the possibility of using a computer to solve the question of who should be the next Amer- Overweight? The solution Is simple, says Steincrohn. "Cut down" instead of "cut-out." Con tinue to eat all the fattening foods, but less. Accustomed to six slices of bread daily, cut down to three; four pats of but ter, down to two, two malted milks, down to one. And so on. Are you physically lazy? Don't be asbamed of it, advises the doctor. "There s no special hon or in belonging to the cult of the physically active (for people over 40). Nor is there any added guarantee of healthfulness or longer life." Nervous? Nothing to be ashamed of, writes Steincrohn. This is the "nervous century," he says. We all live in the shad ow of the "bomb" "I ask pa tients to worry less not to stop." Steincrohn's philosophy in a nutshell: "You only live once. Yesterday is in the mind. To morrow is in the heart. Today is your life. Learn to live it in full day by day or you die a little." But, he warns, one rule must be followed always "Nothing in excess." DENNIS THE MENACE 'YOU CM m WDRSElfS ANOTHER W.
