Join the Army and Lose Weight— I
New Order Makes It Possible!
By FRANK W. VAILLE
WASHINGTON, Iff)—The Army,
already pressed to cut the fat
from its spending program, is also
attacking fat on another front—
that of its personnel.
A recent order, sent out in the
form of a 42-page supply bulletin,
recommends a 15-day low calorie
diet. It’s up to local commanders
whether—and on whom—to put it
into effect.
The bulletin suggests the diet
“is applicable for use for person
nel who have consistently put cm
weight due to the consumption of
a ration of higher caloric value
than required by their physical
activity.” Or, in other words, those
who get fiat because they eat too
much.
Look Better, Feel Better
Then, in a tactical vein, it adds:
“The success of using this menu
will depend on such factors as—
the designation of a separate mess
where it will be served, proper
indoctrination and instruction on
good eating habits, and motivating
the individual by convincing him
that he will both feel and look
better if he eats a diet more in
keeping with his energy require
ments.”
“No personnel will be required
to subsist on this menu without
the prior approval of the surgeon.”
A suggested 15-day menu con
tains an average of 2,308 calories
for each day, as contrasted with
the 3,600 calories which the Army
says are needed by the physically
active and 3,000 by the relatively
inactive.
From Turkey to Hamburger
The daily count ranges from a
peak of 2,601 calories on the sec
ond day—when roast turkey (493 I
calories) is listed for dinner and j
Creole beef cubes (647) for supper
—down to a low of 2,150 on the
seventh day when grilled ham-1
burger (314) with roll (179) sub- j
stitutes for the turkey, and roast!
chicken (420) takes the place of I
the beef cubes.
When a further reduction in j
caloric value is warranted, the!
Army, says, another 420 calories |
can be chopped away by elimin- |
ating a half slice of bread from j
three meals, and a half pint of
skim milk and a pat of butter
from two of the day’s repasts.
Dr. Daniel Bovet
Wins 1957 Nobel
Medicine Award
STOCKHOLM, UP)—'The 1957
Nobel Prize for medicine was
awarded yesterday to Dr. Daniel
Bovet, 50, Swiss-born Italian sci
entist who pioneered in the de
velopment of antihistamines.
The award, approximately $42,
000, is the first Nobel Prize to
Italian medicine in half a cen
tury. The selection was made by
Sweden’s Royal Caroline Institute
of Medicine.
Newsmen who brought word of
i the award to Bovet’s home in
j Rome were told he was in bed re
! covering from Asian flu. His wife
i said he “has been working very
; hard” on studies of the effects of
| tranquilizers on humans.
I Bovet for years sought a check
| against histamine, the irritant
! whose release in the body by pol
len or other disturbing factors
causes hay fever, rash, eczema,
asthma and other allergies.
In 1937, with a Swiss colleague,
he produced the first antihista
mine 929F, or thymoxy-ethyl
diethlamine.
