Three Cycles of Biorythmns Responsible for Highs, Lows Explained at Kinsmen Meeting Have you ever jumped out of bed on a given morning and felt ready to tackle any problem or any person? Then, the next moring all you wanted to do was to forget the world and pull the covers back over your bead and wondered why the drastic change in the way you felt? That's your biorythmns at work according to Ted Heaton, a Ph.D. Metaphysics Grad of the University of California. Mr. Heaton, a marketing consultant, based in Toronto, addressed •the regular meeting of the Bowmanville I'insmen Club on January 6 and explained in detail why we have our "highs" and "lows" and how the individual can deal with them. "Many decades of research in the medical, scientific and psychological professions have been devoted to biorythmns and the three cycles involved," he said. The three cycles are physi- cal, sensitivity (dealing with emotions) andthe intellect. "Biorythmns and their cycles can be easily computed by simply knowing the birth date of the individual," ne stated. "Thephysical cycle is 23 days which means, in effect, for the first 1112 days, a person is below his average norm. That is, they may feel sluggish and unco-ordinated." The same applies to the sensitivity cycle which spans 28 days during which the initial 14 days, a person tends to be more cheerful, optimis- tic and creative. The intellectual cycle runs for 33 dajs and our "ups" and "downs' are evident in our creative thinking, aþility to understand and grasp new subjects. Mr. Heaton stated each cycle affects us individually but "when they rise or fall in unison which is approximately every five months, it can be a very critical time in an individual's life." According to Mr. Heaton, about 20 percent of our existence falls into critical days. "This occurs when two or more of the cycles rise or fall at approximately the same time. He cited several examples such as the defeat of Cassius Clay by Sonny Liston, the poor showing of skater Tollar Cranston in the 1974 winter games and the failure of golfer Jack Nicklaus to win the PGA in the United States two weeks after easily winning the British Open. In all cases, at least two of the individual's cycles were on the downswing or at the lowest ebb. Our ups and downs are easy to forecast because they are all mathematically calculated from our date of birth, he noted. Therefore, it is easy to predict the "down" portions specifically, and govern our conduct and mental approach to living and deaing with problems he said. At first glance, biorythmns and their effect on us may not be as far-fetched as we think, Mr. Heaton tioted. "Among many organizationswho con- sider employee biorythmns in work planning are United Airlines, Swiss Air, Bell Canada and the Miami Dolphins." Mr. Heaton who had been introduced by Kinsman AI Tibbles was thanked by Kins- man Corrie Kuipers. For Only Ontario Lîberais Plan T estimonial Evening to Sor R trn Leader the Liberal Party in Ontario.

O0 SSO1US0 | S R tr Tet eCOn C VVee K s Iie àrnCy Twelve musicians, associ- ates of the Hamilton Phil- harmonic Institute, are returning to Trent University, Peterborough, for the second of three week-long residen- des. The visit of these young professional musicians pro- vides an opportunity for them to develop their existing talents through community, university and orchestral per- formances. In turn the associ- ates offer performances to the community that are the result, of their first class abilities and their fresh, innovative ap- proach to audiences. The musicians, who come from across Canada, include a soprano, a flautist, a violinist, cellist, two trumpeters, two trombonists, a bassoonist, pianist, a string bass and viola player. OBITUARY BETTY (SNOWDEN) PRITCHARD The late Betty (Snowden) Pritchard was born on the farm at Maple Grove, elder daughter of the late Leslie Cole Snowden and Minnie (Baker) Snowden. She was educated at the little red schoolhouse at Maple Grove and Bowmanville High School where at the age of 16 in 1932, she graduated with ber Jr. Matriculation Certificate. Two months later, her father died and having ber driver's license, for two years she was of great assistance to ber mother on the farm. She then took a commercial course and spent the next 10 years as an employee of the R. M. Hollingshead Company, spending two years at the plant in Bowmanville and eight years at the office in Toronto. In 1946, she married Otis Pritchard, a prominent far- mer in the Ottawa Valley near Manotick. The Pritchard home was always open house to friends and relatives. Betty and Otis were devoted parents to three sons, who survive, John of Richmond, B.C.; Peter of Mlanotick and Paul of Esk, Sask. Also surviving are, a loved daugh- ter-in-law (Mrs. Peter, Prit- chard) and two grandchild- ren, Shannon and Matthew Pritchard, ber mother Mrs. Leslie Snowden, Maple Grove, a sister Mildred, Mrs. John Huband, Oshawa and a bro- ther Robert, Maple Grove. Always ready with a helping hand and a cheery smile especially to elderly neigh- bors, Betty endeared herself as she did to a wide circle of friends and associates in the commuaity, Women's Insti- tute and church services. She was a member of the Mano- tick United Church session at the time of ber death. Her regard for old friends and relatives at Maple Grove and Bowmanville always re- mained the same as in former times. She is just away, but memories remain.

Other sponsors, with Trent, are the Peterbor- ough County Board of Educa- tion, the Separate School Board of Peterborough, Vic- toria and Northumberland Counties, the Peterborough Symphony, Coventry Singers and the Music Society of Peterborough. Much of the detailed organi- zational work has been under- taken from the oútset by the students and faculty of the fine arts committee of Otonabee College. Workshops in city high schools wil begin Tuesday, Jan. 27, and continue through the weèk, with individual performers and groups (brass, woodwinds, strings. keyboard and vocal) workinf with their students.

The Reverend W. Clarke MacDonald, Secretary, De- partment of Church in Society of The United Church of Canada, whose political lean- ings are usually in support of the New Democratic Party, says that in questioning Can- ada's structures and systems the Prime Minister is "consis- tent with his so-called 'philoso- phical musings' of the past." "It is six years since hie reminded us, perhaps out of his Club of Rome contacts, that equally important to the gross national product as a measurement of a nation's henlth is the net social benefit of its various endeavours," Dr. MacDonald said in a statement released Tuesday. "I have neyer been seized by Trudeaumania "continued Dr. MacDonald, "but I see his year-end statement as an application of that philosophy - an invitation to dialogue which we ought to welcome. No doubt some criticism of the present controls program and its method of application is justified. Yet what the Prime inister was saying in that speech, and to which big labor and big business reacted in such a hyper-sensitive man- ner, cannot be denied. We cannot go on demanding more and more without finding ourselves on a collision before theconcert at the box office. The associates will also be performing for the public in the Lady Eaton College dining hall at 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 27 and in the Peter Robinson College dining hall on Thursday at 8:00 p.m. Trudeau's PIan course. " Dr. MacDonald said he found it interesting that "the very day the Chairman of the Toronto Board of Trade was rebuking Mr. Trudeau and extolling the virtues of the free enterprise system, the same news told us of a tenement house burning in Montreal and six children dying in the flames. Much of the slum housing produced in this country was produced by that system. "The fact that the gap is widening between the ton 20 per cent of our people who' received 42.7 per cent of the national income and the bottom 20 per cent who received 3.9 per cent in 1973 is not a success story in humani- tarian terms," the churchman said. He concluded: "There are, I an sure, many legitimate criticisms to be made of Mr. Trudeau and his policies, but if I were to translate what he said into theological terms it would be: 'Remember the word of the Lord, thou shalt have no other gods before me' Telophone 725-3144 draperies BROADLOOM DRAPERIES BY THE YARD ' VENETIAN & CLOTH BLINDS CUSTOM MADE DRAPES - DRAPERY RODS & TRACKS INTERIOR DECORATING SERVICE HOWARD VICE 926 Simcoe St. N.
