Should Have Jo,o! I
-by WILMA DOME —
in female anatomy over the years have not been as frequent
fashions, but they have been almost as frivolous. The late H. L.
Mencken dourly observed that American women at one time were
shaped like a drunken dollar-bill c
Ssign.
Wasp waists and full hips were
once all the fashion. Lillian Rus
sell, the famed Gay Nineties beau
ty, tipped the scales at 165 yet was
P considered the glamour girl of her
day! Her curves would now be
considered not only very qnglam
orous, but her family physician
might rightly put her on a strict
reducing diet. Even the world
renowned beauty, Venus de Milo,
might find herself counting cal
ories in today’s world. Her meas
urements are a hefty: 48-39-51,
• but, of course, she is over 6%
feet tall!
Counting calories preoccupies
the minds of almost half of Amer
ica’s adult population. Recently,
one eager-beaver for statistics es
timated that the aggregate over
weight of all American adults
amounts to a fantastic 500,000,000
pounds.
Vanity is probably the chief in
centive in causing women to re
duce. However, thdre is a more
urgent and serious reason to guard
against overweight. Doctors and
medical authorities warn us that
excess pounds are a definite
health hazard. It is of primary
, concern in the study of the high
frequency of heart disease, the
No. 1 killer in the United States,
particularly among men.
Men have not done as good a
job as women in controlling their
weight. Women of all ages today
weigh less than their mothers,
while men are generally heavier
than their fathers.
Unlike the common cold, some
thing can be done about over
weight. The modern reducer is
fortunate in having available a
wide variety of tasty dietetic foods
at the nearest grocery store and it
is not unusual now for most res
K
"Goodie f Now the nation is
only 499,999,999 pounds
overweightl"
taurants to feature a special menu
for the caloric counter.
Many major food companies
are acutely aware of the national
concern over obesity and are
spending millions of dollars in re
search to develop delicious, low
calorie food products at moderate
Srices, One such company is Wish
One, famous for its tasty and pop
ular salad dressings. Wish-Bone
has now introduced nationally two
new low calorie dressings that give
dieters an opportunity to enjoy
any salad without paying the piper
in calories.
The new Wish-Bone Low Cal
orie Italian Dressing contains just
one (1) calorie per teaspoon (less
than the calorie content of a tea
spoon of fresh lemon juice!) and
Wish-Bone Low Calorie French
Style Dressing has a mere two (2)
calories per teaspoon.
Salads supply essential vita
mins, and also can be a bright ad
dition to diet fare. A salad can be
easily prepared and served as a
satisfying meal in itself. Either
way, they are the dieter’s best
friend, especially when the salad
is tossed with m flavorful, low
calorie dressing.

GOP Leaders See
No Need to Delay
Adjournment of Congress
WASHINGTON (4) — Republi
can leaders said Thursday they
see no need to delay adjournment
of Congress because of the inter
national situation unless it be
comes more critical.
Sen. Everett Dirksen and Rsp.
Charles Halleck minority leaders
said President Kennedy could
reconvene Congress at any time
*nd, with modern transporta
tion, the members could assemble
quickly.
Dirksen said his target date for
adjournment is Sept. 23. Halleck
said he saw no reason why the
House could not finish its work
by Sept. 16.
In the Senate Wednesday, De
mocratic Leader Mike Mansfield
of Montana held out the possi
bility of adjournment by Sept.
15-16. He said, however, he

close to Oct. 1.
