Farrell brushed his teeth and shaved this morn ing just like many other husky 23-year-olds except that he is pretending to be on a trip to the moon. The blond six-footer from the Bronx was squeezed Sunday into a 3-by-5-foot experimental sealed cabin, quickly dubbed a space barrel, at nearby Randolph Air Force Base. Space medical experts at the base's School of Aviation Medicine expect Farrell to crawl from the cabin at 9:35 a.m. next Sunday unharmed by the seven days in a make-believe space ship. "Very bright and chipper" was the way Lt. Col. George R. Stein kamp, chief of space medicine, reported Farrell's condition. "At this point I see no reason why he should not last the full seven days. Steinkamp described how Far rell spends his time in the her metically sealed cabinet. He sees and hears nothing on the outside. All instructions are relayed to him by a closed-circuit television hookup or by prearranged signals on a panel of buttons and switch es. He said Farrell has "work ne- fiods" of about four" hours 'that mlgnt be compared with standing a shift at the controls of a space ship. He has a rubber mattress he can inflate and stretch out on during a specified sleeping period. Otherwise he must sit almost bolt upright. However) it is not all work and sleep. There are "rest periods" during which he reads, including two textbooks on accounting and English grammar. In these peri ods he also listens to hi-fi record music piped into the cell mostly George Gershwin and Cole Por ter selections that he picked be fore the "trip" started. The scientists figure it 'would not be impossible for space trav elers to hear radio music broad cast from the earth or maybe from a space station relay point. Farrell follows a master menu that Steinkamp said was "high in protein and highly nutritious, It does not consist entirely of con densed or dehydrated foods. He had an orange with his breakfast. Cold Weather Hard On Feet NEW YORK Wl Cold feet? "The current cold wave is tak ing its greatest toll below the ankles," says the American Foot Care Institute, Inc. Here's what the institute sug gests: 1. Bathe your feet alternately with hot and cold water after your bath or shower. This stimu lates blood circulation. 2. Wear closed shoes. 3. Men should wear two pairs of thin socks instead of one heavy pair. The space between will help retain body warmth. 4. Women, prone to cling to ny lons, can rub lanolin or baby oil into the skin to prevent chapping. 5. Exercise your feet briefly, by wriggling the toes and rotating the feet Irom the ankles. 6. Stay indoors if you can. HALLMARK VALENTINES By B. L. LIVINGSTONE WASHINGTON ( - Two ex perts in the field of psychiatric medicine cast a Vote of confidence today for tranquilizing drugs and the pharmaceutical houses which make and market them. The psychiatrists told House investigators that although occa sional abuses and honest mistakes occur, these do not warrant charges of misleading and distort ed advertising against the great majority of drug firms. Tranquilizers are not the hap py pills" some people think them to be, the doctors said, but "very important new medical tools" about which a great number of misconceptions have sprung up. I his testimony was prepared for a House Government Opera tions subcommittee by Dr. Frank J. Ayd, a psychiatrist of Balti more, Md., and Dr. Nathan S. Kline, director of research for the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene. the testimony opened an inves tigation of what Subcommittee Chairman Blatnik (D-.Minn) said was concern by some physicians that drug houses have resorted to unscientific and deceptive sales promotion to ballyhoo their prod uct. Blatnik said the new tranquiliz ing drugs are included In almost third of all medical prescrip tions written today. He put their total sales at 300 million dollars a year. Both Dr. Ayd and Dr. Kline said that tranquilizers do not cause addiction, and that side re actions may be annoying but not dangerous. Properly administered, these drugs are safe," Dr. Ayd testi fied. The risk of addiction or habituation from prolonged use of tranquilizers is practically ' nonexistent." At the same time he said even the most sanguine physician would not prescribe a tranquilizer for what might be termed normal anxiety. On the score of advertising, Dr. Ayd said most drug firms "cher ish and seek the medical profes-1 sion's confidence and respect." He conceded that some firms may violate good taste and ethi cal standards, but added: "For tunately, physicians are percep tive individuals who, by their training and experience, view all drug advertising with a critical eye. . . . While a few of the so called tranquilizers have been ad vertised unwisely, the majority of manufacturers have exercised ad mirable caution and restrain in their promotion." Dr. Kline praised pharmaceuti cal firms for their research which he said has produced major drug discoveries. The "occasional excesses" of pomotional activity, he said, have already resulted in develop ment of a self-regulating code of ethics among pharmaceutical or ganizations. He said this code Is now well along in preparation and meets most of the objections which have been raised. As for tranquilizers themselves, Dr. Kline said their development was akin to the beginning of the atomic era, and may in fact "be of markedly greater Import in the history of mankind." Use of these drugs in the last five years, he said, has reduced the number of patients in mental hospitals, permitted individuals to go back to useful lives, and pre vented institutionalizing many acute patients. Americans Called Best Drivers LONDON -A British; govern ment official says Americans are better drivers than Britons. - Richard Nugent, parliamentary secretary to the Transport Min istry, told a meeting of the Royal Automobile Club last night Amer icans drive at higher speeds but have more skill at the wheel than the British.
