DR. LAWMNCE E. LAMB
Too Many Prunes
Aren't a Problem
By Lawrence Lamb, M.D.
Dear Dr. Lamb — How
many prunes a day are too
many? I eat five or six ev
ery evening and need no
laxative. Am I too dependent
on prunes? I am 70, of normal
weight, and in good health.
How much water should the
average person drink a day?
Will your recommendation
include or be in addition to
coffee, fruit juices, etc.? I
am a faithful reader of your
column and think it is excel
lent.
Dear Reader — You are
very fortunate. There are a
good many people who would
like to solve their bowel
problem by the simple ex
pedient of eating five or six
prunes a day. Don’t worry
about being dependent on
them. That is one of the best
approaches you can use to
this type of problem. Keep
right on eating them.
There is no set rule as to
how much water a person
should drink. As your letter
suggests, you do get water in
all the different beverages
that you drink. Some people
drink very little water be
cause of the large amounts
of coffee and other drinks,
they consume. I am not a big
fan of coffee because of its
drug effect, which can affect
the digestion, the heart and
the nervous system. Fruit
juices are excellent. There is
also water in other food, for
example, approximately 70
per cent of the weight of a
piece of lean roundsteak is
water.

Call 227-3276
Page 13
A person’s thirst is usually
a pretty good guide as to how
much water he should drink,
unless he has a medical
problem that suggests he
should drink more or less. A
person should drink about
eight glasses of fluids a day,
including fruit juices, other
beverages, milk and water.
Dear Dr. Lamb — Have
you ever heard of fibrous
anemia (dry bones)? If so
can you tell me the cause
and cure?
Dear Reader — I suspect
this term refers to loss of
function of the bone marrow.
Normally, the bone marrow
manufactures blood cells.
When anything happens to it
so that it can no longer fill
this function an anemia
results.
Fortunately, this problem
is relatively rare. It is more
apt to occur in older people
but it can occur following ex
posure to a variety of
toxins (poisons) and even
sometimes as a complication
or toxic reaction to certain
medicines.
Occasionally the spleen is
a factor. A person with this
type of problem needs a com
plete evaluation by a spe
cialist in blood diseases
(hemotologist). In some in
stances, if one can be certain
that the spleen is a factor,
surgery is indicated. In other
instances hormones and
other medicines are helpful
and sometimes it is neces
sary to provide blood trans
fusions.

Italy's autostrada
tests the strong
By JEFF CUSHING
Copley News Service
NAPLES, Italy — Any Amer
ican brave enough to drive the
no speed limit toll roads here
should be awarded a trophy if
he is lucky enough to survive
the experience.
Motoring down the sweeping
ribbons of asphalt that make up
the autostrada system in Italy
is not a task for the weak or the
timid. It is said that the meek
shall inherit the earth, but if
they’re not careful here, they’ll
be ground right into it by an
overexuberant driver in a little
Fiat 500.
Virtually all of the highway
systems here are in top shape.
No potholes, no blind curves, no
cattle roaming around on the
shoulder. The tolls charged for
the use of the highways pay for
the upkeep of the roadbed, re
pair of fences, even the plant
ings along the way.
The cost is reasonable. For
example, the 125-mile run from
Rome south to Naples costs
about $1 U.S. for a passenger
car. That is a cheap admission
ticket to any racetrack. And the
autostrada is as racy as you
can get.
Even the toll road guards go
along with it. Auto designer
Alejandro DeTomaso proudly
tells of his exploits on the auto
strada. His most popular tale is
of the time he drove from Milan
to Rome on the four-lane road
in two hours and 20 minutes;
and he had the guards at either
end sign his toll ticket for con
firmation.
The trip is normally a 4-hour
venture.
While there are speed limits
posted along some routes, few
motorists pay attention to
them. How fast you go depends
on who is in front of you and
which lane you’re in.
The left is theoretically only
for passing. The idea is to stay
in the right lane, turn on your
left blinker, pass, turn on the
right blinker and slip back into
line.
But the Italians have found a
way around the passing lane
only rule. They simply race
along in the left lane for hours
on end, their left-hand signal
blinking away like mad.
There are massive pile-ups
from time to time along the au
tostrada, but the tales of 18 or
20-car chain collisions don’t
stop intrepid motorists from
thAouqh
fheai/i
with the greatest of ease,
once they get the hang of
it and with a little help
from a ground crew. The
daring young man soaring
over the coast at Tor
rance, Calif, (above) is
kiting, a new sport. Kites

pounds, ore simple con
structions of bamboo and

their high-speed antics.
“What is the joy of owning a
fast car if you can’t go fast?”
reasoned one Italian motorist
as he filled the tank of his Alfa
Romeo at one of the many off
ramp service station areas. “If
I am to be kept down to 80
kilometers an hour (50 m.p.h.),
I will drive a baby Fiat. If I am
going to drive at 180 k.p.h. (105
m.p.h.), I prefer my Alfa.”
An American Highway Pa
trol officer would love to hear
that argument.
Tourists who travel the auto
stradas of Italy are often sur
prised to find drivers to be gen
erally more polite than their
stateside counterparts.
“American drivers are
downright rude if you compare
them to Italians,” said one va
cationer from New Jersey.
“Here they may drive like the
devil, but they sure drive better
than they do back home. They
don’t cut you off the road like
they do on the New Jersey turn
pike.
“It’s almost like a game over
here; they drive right up to the
limit of the vehicle’s capability,
then back off. They’ve been
driving fast for so long that
they really seem to know how
to handle themselves. And I’d
sure as heck rather be outrun'
by some fellow in a Ferrari who
knows what he’s doing than by .
some kid in a hopped-up Chevy.
“I’ll take my chances here
any day, but in the states it’s a
gamble every time you turn on
the ignition.”

WARDEN REIMBURSED
OAKLAND, Calif. (UPI)-A •
game warden whose jacket was
shredded by a mountain lion
has been reimbursed $36 for his
loss.
Jon N. Jones was holding the i
lion while a picture was being '
taken when the animal became I
excited over a passing chicken. I

A supervisor told the Alame- :

Jones received some minor

the chicken escaped unharmed.
