"Provoking
Heart Disease"
Diseases of the heart and blood
vessels are among the most com
mon in the world today. Many
people wonder if they will get
heart or blood vessel disease and
they wonder what they can do to
lessen their chances of doing so.
Let’s look into these matters.
“Cardio” means pertaining to the
heart. “Vascular" refers to the
body’s blood vessel system. Dis
eases of the heart and blood ves
sels are called cardiovascular dis
eases. Other terms associated
with these diseases are “occlu
sion” which means “closing” or
“stopping up” of a vessel and
“thrombus” or “thrombosis" which
means “a clot.” “Coronary arter
ies” are arteries which supply
blood to the heart muscle. A “cor
onary thrombosis” is a clot in a
coronary artery.
Blood pressure is another fac
tor associated with cardiovascular
disease. Normally blood vessels
are elastic. They stretch accord
ing to the amount of blood in
them. “Diastolic” pressure is the
pressure in the vessels when they
are relaxed. “Systolic” pressure is
the pressure in the vessels when
the heart beats and forces blood
through them. These pressures are
measured by a device which caus
es a column of mercury to rise
according to the amount of. pres
sure in the vessels. Diastolic and
systolic pressures within a wide
range are considered normal, but
the usual diastolic pressure in a
normal person is about 70 to 80
millimeters of mercury, the sys
tolic, about 120 to 130 millimeters
of mercury. These two readings,
expressed as a fraction, are called
the blood pressure.
Valves in the blood vessels and
heart keep the blood from flow
ing backward when the heart re
laxes. A “leaking heart” is one
in which the valves in the heart
fail to close properly. When this
happens the heart must work
harder to pump the same amount
of blood. Because it is thus ex
ercised more, it enlarges, just as
any other muscle would. If it en
larges to a certain extent the

valves may become stretched and
leak more.
* As we grow older, blood ves
-11 seis tend to lose their elasticity
> j and “harden”. This makes it hard
.| er for the heart to pump blood
r i through the vessels. Sometimes an
I artery breaks open or ruptures.
llf the break occurs in an artery
j in a vital organ, such as the brain,
results may be serious. Death can
I occur in such cases.
Physicians do not know all of
। the causes of diseases of the heart
I and blood vessels, but some sac
. I tors which seem to favor their
। development are known. Over
| weight, nervous tension, lack of
! rest and relaxation, lack of exer
।( cise, smoking — all these things
। increase the likelihood of heart
I and blood vessel disease.
’ I What can a person do to reduce
’ j this likelihood?
,| DOC MAG SAYS:
■ 1. Maintain the proper weight
. I for your age and height. Eat a bal
( [ anced diet.
. I 2. Avoid tension as much as
• you can. Don’t overwork for long
periods of time without rest and
sleep.
3. Take a moderate amount of
: mild exercise daily. Don’t try to
be a weekend athlete.
4. Have some interest besides
your work. See that your outside
interest helps you relax and takes
your mind off your worries.
Literary Group
Pays High Honor
To Sen. Talmadge
The Demosthenian Literary So-'
ciety of the University of Georgia
has paid a special tribute to one
of its alumni — U.S. Sen. Herman
E. Talmadge. When the senator
appeared as guest speaker at the
Society’s annual banquet in Ath
ens the other evening, the Demos
thenians placed his portrait in
their “Wall of Fame.”
Acknowledging this honor, Tal
madge said his membership in
Demosthenian “is one of the most
prized possessions that I have,
and many of my fondest recol
lections of my days at the Uni
versity are of moments spent in
Demosthenian Hall.”
In his speech, the junior sena
tor said that “education is the best
I weapon we have in the world
struggle for freedom.” Stressing
the importance of our schools and
universities, he declared that “an
educated people are more vital to
. the security, both economic and
political, of the United States and
the Free World than all the mis
siles and planes we can build.”

Groundwork Now
Being Laid For
Auio Check Law
Although Georgia’s new motor
vehicle inspection law doesn’t go ;
into effect until Jan. 1, 1965, the ।
State Patrol is busily laying the
groundwork for enforcing the .
law. 11
And there is plenty of work to !'
be done between now and the ef
fective date, according to Col. H. <
Lowell Conner, director of the; i
Georgia Department of Public
Safety.
Right now the important thing
is for those who expect to qualify
as authorized state safety inspec- <
tion stations should write in for
an application. This includes au
tomobile dealers, garage owners,
service station owners, auto serv
ice stores and any other establish- ]
ments dealing with motor vehicles
and desiring to become an author- ]
ized inspector. j
They should write to the Geor- i
gia Department of Public Safety, i
Motor Vehicle Inspection Divi- c
I sion, P. O. Box 1456, Atlanta, Ga. i
30301.
Immediately upon receipt of
these requests applications will be
sent out from the department. All
applications are expected to be
approved by July 1, according to
Capt. E. D. Mink, supervisor of
I the Motor Vehicle Inspection Di
j vision.
j Capt. Mink, who is making
speeches all over the state in the
interest of the upcoming safety
program, has as his assistant Sgt.
David T. McCord, who served as
service manager of the State Pa
trol Headquarter’s garage since
1953. Twenty-four other troopers
will be assigned to the new divi
sion.
Col. Conner said that while
their primary duties will be with
the Motor Vehicle Inspection Di
vision, they also will be perform
ing patrolling duties as time and
conditions permit.
Meanwhile, owners of cars and
i trucks are urged to have their
vehicles inspected and repaired
now’ in order to avoid delays and
expense once the new law’ be
comes effective. They will then
have to pay a fee of $1.25 for the
inspection as required by law.

Agri - Business
Agri-business, a term coined to]
describe occupations related to ag
riculture and requiring an agri
culture background and training
in agriculture, is a very modern
word.
There are today more jobs
available in agri-business than
ever in the history of our coun
try because of the many types of
industry’ that process farm prod
ucts and distribute these. Some
of these are:
The Dairy Industry: Processing
dairy’ products, ice cream, cheese,
etc.
The meat packing industry.
Fertilizer industry.
Naval Stores industry.
The Vegetable Processing In

The Textile industry.

Ths L'Estaxt Plas or 1791 S
Among major American cities, Washington, D. C. is considered
one of the most beautiful. The fact is neither one of chance nor
of recent date.
In 1790, President George Washington chose a new site on
the Potomac River for the cap- 1
ital. Commissioned to chart the
plan of Washington, D.C. Was
Pierre Charles L'Enfant, a
French engineer who came to
the U.S. with General Lafayette.
L’Enfant's plan, executed in
1791, covered ten square miles,
and had a grand mall centered
on the Capitol Building and the
President’s residence. Avenues
100 to 120-feet wide were laid
out in radiating fashion popular
In Paris at the time. For ex
ample, the grand sweep of Con
stitution Avenue is similar to
Paris' Champs Elys^es.
Washington, probably more (
than any other city in the (
world served by Air France,
shows the elegant influence of
Paris. Neither city has sky
scrapers, but both have hand

Agricultural jobs are important
in keeping down unemployment.
These agricultural jobs are in
creasing in the agri-business field.
A young man wishing to study
agriculture and go into a tech
nical job or a job related to agri
culture has a bright future before
him and the pay is very adequate
in comparison with other jobs.
There are many well paying jobs
now that cannot be filled because
of lack of trained men.
VETERANS NEWS
High school seniors eligible for
War Orphans Education Program
assistance should begin qualifica
tion procedures now, Pete Wheel
er, Director, Georgia Department
of Veterans Service, said today.
Eligible under the program are
the sons and daughters, natural
or otherwise, of a parent who
died of an injury or disease in
curred or aggravated in line of
duty during wartime, or under
special conditions during the per
iods, September 16, 1940 - De
cember 6, 1941 and January 1,
1947 - June 26, 1950. Age of the

tory, art, and amity between

United States. A further link
between them will be the open

ton, D.C. to Paris. Three direct

i tor, but because the law provides
many exceptions to this qualifi

should file a claim for assistance,
. Mr. Wheeler said. Neither remar
