After each service volunteers will sell long stem red roses at the following locations: St. Mary's and St. Patrick's in McHenry, St. John the Baptist in John- sburg, St. Joseph's in Rich­ mond, St. Peter's in Spring Grove, and Christ the King in Wonder Lake. This event has always been McHenry Birthright's largest yearly fundraiser, with over 3,400 roses to sell. The red rose was chosen because it is the traditional symbol of the life and wonder of the pre-born child and of all life that God has created." From Dec. 1 to April 1 Birthright, an emergency pregnancy service for distressed women, received a total of 65 calls on their hot line. Thirty-four of the calls were pregnancy-related and 25 of these were confirmed pregnancies. Of the con­ firmed pregnancies, 13 have delivered (11 keeping their babies), 10 Women are not yet due, and four are unknown as to their present situation. Birthright hopes that the beauty and fragrance of the roses will honor the mothers and grandmothers and mothers-to-be in1 the corn- Men who retire may have an increased risk of death from coronary heart disease; according to the recent report by Boston researchers to the American Heart Association's 52nd Scientific Sessions. The study was designed and conducted by Charles H. Hennekens, M.D., of Har­ vard Medical school and Pefeer Bent Bringham hospital. I The data were derived from personal interviews with the wives of 649 men wh6 had died from coronary heart disease within 24 hours following the onset of symptoms and an equal number of wives of men of approximately the same age who were still working and who lived within two bloccks of the heart attack victims' former residence. All the men had lived in com­ munities in Dade or Broward county, Florida. The average age of the men was 58 years, with a range from 30 to 70. Dr. Hennekens said in an interview that, it would be premature to draw firm conclusions from this study, which shows a positive association between retir- ment and subsequent death from coronary disease. "We certainly feel, however, that the current evidence is strong enough to make a follow-up worthwhile. Iji fact, we are planning such a study in East Boston," he said.. ^Ttie c.e searchers estimated that the men who retired had a risk of death from cornonary diseases which was 80 percent higher than those who did not retire. This result emerged from an analysis that took into ac­ count other risk factors, such as age and history of hospitalization for heart attack prior to the fatal event: "It is possible that we may have stumbled across a new risk factor," said Ward Casscells, M.D. an author of the report and medical in­ tern at Beth Israel hospital in Boston, "because many of those whp die of heart at­ tacks have none of the established risk factors, and that's why we are searching for possible psychosocial stress factors, such as retirment." The authors also pointed out that the study raises important public health questions about whether re- tirement increases the risk of heart disease and whether people should be forced to retire. "This study has raised questions rather than answered them," said Dr. Casscells, who was a medical student at Harvard when he collaborated with Dr. Hennekens on the research. Dr. Casscells said he first considered the retirement hypothesis because he had seen a number of patients who retired, became depressed or anxious, and suffered a heart attack: "If a patient derives his self-esteem from his work, retirement may create psychological stress that may affect the heart. We normally think of the business executive as the one who is under a lot of stress, but perhaps the guy under the most stress is the one who is no lone«*r working and feels isolated and useless. On the other hand, for many people retirement means getting away from a demanding boss and finding time to read, travel and be with grandchildren.. It depends on the individual." Others co-authors of the report are Denis Evans, M.D., and Bernard Rosner, Ph.D., of Harvard Medical school, as weU as Regis A. DeSilva, M.D., and Bernard Lown, M.D., well-known experts on psychological stress and sudden death, both Of the Harvard School of Public Health.

Serve at once. Are the summer days (and spring, too) longer in the northern part of the United States than they are in the South? Yes. summer and'spring days are longer in the north, and winter and fall days are longer in the southland. When the sun crossed the equator (it- did Vhis on March 20 this year) the days in the northern latitudes be­ gan to get longer than in the southerly states. Bv the end of March the difference already amounted to about ten minutes, and this differential will increase steadily until at the time of the summer solstice (June 21) the days in Boston, for example, will be an hour longer than the days in Charleston. The difference between Maine and Miami will be even greater. The sun re­ turns to a more southerly p o s i t i o n , r e c r o s s i n g t h e equator in September and then the days in the South begin to get longer. * • * * Laziness explains more failures than igno- rahce but the combination is catastrophic.
