Discouragingly, Type A person­ alities who have survived one heart attack are nearly five times more likely than other survivors to have a second fatal attack. But they can change their life style and reduce their vulnerability to death, says Dr. Friedman, who is his own living proof. Before suf­ fering a coronary seven years ago, the doctor, who admits to being a Type A, was a chainsmoker and a compulsive worker who never learned to delegate responsibility. Now, he says, he takes time for living and refuses to be enslaved by the clock. If he didn't, he might be dead. WANT MORE INFORMATION?

NOW IS THE TIME WE'RE MAKING PRE-SPRING DEALS TODAY ! Future Tense The American melting pot is congealing into subtribes and subcultures, with grave im­ plications for our future, believes Alvirr Toffler, author of the best-seller, "Future Shock." In a recent talk in New York, discussing the death of Life magafzine and the proliferation of specialized magazines, Mr. Toffler commented: "It is not accidental, it seems to me, that at the very time we are diversifying our media we are also getting increased ethnization in the United States, so suddenly instead of everybody being embarrassed by the fact that his parents were Jewish or Italian or Yugoslav or black, we a~e suddenly concluding that the differences among us are more important and honorable than we ever thought before." This ethnization of America will have enormous con­ sequences for writers and speakers, he continued. "For one thing, I think we can expect to see not only a proliferation of groupings or sub-societies within the society, but also a proliferation of languages. I think we are going to be dealing with more specialized jargons, and not just scientific jargons or technical jargons, but also sub- cultural jargons, whether jwe are talking about Black English or Teen-age English. "I think we are going to see the development not just of languages in the sense of words, combinations of words, and rhythmetic patterns in which they're used but also the development of whole new sets of metaphors, whole sets of analogies, that make sense to one group, but make no sense to other groups. And I think that PAGE17-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARC H 23, 1973 Kenneth Flske Named Chairman Outdoor Committee Kenneth Fiske, executive director of the McHenry County Conservation district, was appointed chairman of the Outdoor Recreation committee for the Illinois chapter for the Soil Conservation Society of America. The Committee is composed of individuals throughout the state who are members of the society and have a specific interest in outdoor recreation. The committee will be reviewing the new Illinois Department of Conservation Recreational plan for the state of Illinois and preparing position and policy statements regarding it. Fiske is a former president of the Illinois chapter of the Soil Conservation Society of America. as the society fragments in this way we are going to need more and more inter-subcultural ambassadors, people who can speak more than one language and who can write and carry the messages from one group to another." What effect will • this ethnization of America have on our everyday lives? First of all, ten years (or perhaps twenty) from now we will probably all be reading more "little" magazines and newspapers, each appealing to a different audience and a different point of view. On our video screens, we will receive the equivalent of the "little" maga­ zines....instead of so many network programs, we will have regional and local cable TV (almost like a weekly newspaper of the air) and we will be able to buy video cassettes to pop into our TV sets whenever we please. In our schools, we will probably need more language courses - and teachers to teach them. They, in turn, will need more textbook writers and interpreters to bridge the gap, so the job opportunities may be wide open in the language field. More translation services may be needed in offices, depart­ ment stores, telephone com­ panies. Maybe some en­ terprising businessmen will even start a "Dial-A-Linguist" service. Dictionary writers may also be kept very busy revising the shades of meanings for older words and adding new ones as our vocabularies assume more ethnic flavors. History books about various nationalities and their im­ migrations to America may be in great demand if the ethnization of the country continues as Alvin Toffler believes it will. And what about BYRD ON SEATO Senator Robert C. Byrd (D-W.Va) has proposed that the United States terminate its involvement in the South­ east Asia Treaty Organiza­ tion (S^ATO) or "drastical­ ly pha-fige" its charter. ethnic art, dance, museums, theater, retaurants, music clothes? They're going to be crowd-pleasers - and possible money makers for some emerging tycoon in the year 2,000. "Of course, it's impossible for anybody to know what's going to happen next," points out Mr. Toffler. "But I think it's possible to know what's happening today and to draw some conclusions about that from some of the possible directions of change." . . .TO TALK ABOUT TRACTOR & IMPLEMENT TIRES See Us For A Complete Line Of Firestones Interest Is High In Mechanics The Power Mechanics courses at West campus are proving to be extremely popular with students. Enrollments have increased to the point where some students may be turned away. Boys, and a growing number of girls, may select from three courses, Power I, II and III. Power I and II are courses in automotive engine mechanics which cover theory necessary for skillful engine diagnosis. Students use the latest in diagnostic equipment. Power III is an advanced course primarly for students who are working in the auto trade through the school's Cooperative Work program. These students participate in actual job situations in which they are expected to diagnose and repair automotive problems THE CHURCH FROM GOD One of the most popular subjects of today is that of the value of "thechurch". Many would identify the church with "the establish­ ment" and thus reject it completely. Perhaps it is a good thing that the church is under such close observation and judgment today. If we go back to study the Biblical concept of the church and seek to make necessary adjustments or alterations, then good can be accomplished. The Biblical concept of the church is actually three directional and each of these identify closely with one Person of the Trinity. There is the Ecclesia, the Koinonia and the Body of Christ, each of which illustrate a separate concept of the church. The Ecclesia concept identifies with God, the Father. Ecclesia is a Greek word meaning "to call out". The church is a body of "called out ones". It is called out by God. Just as God called Israel out of Egypt (Hosea 11:1), God called His church out of a worldy nature to Himself. God called Abraham from Ur of Chaldees to become the father of His people. He has especially prepared and called His church to be a blessing to the people of the world. It uniquely belongs to Him- The church is also the Koinonia of the Holy Spirit. Koinonia is a Greek word describing the life shared in Christ by members of the church. It is a life with a special quality of fellowship between its members. This fellowship is a bond provided by the indwelling Holy Spirit within each believer. (Acts 2:42). The church is also the Body of Christ (Romans 12:1-5). It is uniquely united to Christ Jesus as a wife is united to her husband (Ephesians 5:29-33). Jesus Christ, Himself, is the head of this body (Colossians 1:18). Therefore, the true church of Jesus Christ is very unique. It is very relevant for today. The true church recognizes herself as belonging to God, the Father. She lpves^'the brethren" as she sees herself as being the body and bride <)f Jesus Christ. The whaler's expression "thar she blows" refers to a whale's discharge of warm breath, which condenses in the cold air into a visible vapor, when a whale surfaces.

George, a 47-year-old dairy-firm executive who worked to win, played for keeps, and never had a moment to waste, dropped dead last July while running on the cinder track near his San Francisco home. George digd of ventricular fibrillation -- a form of heart attack -- but there is mounting evidence to indicate that the real killer might have been his personality. According to Meyer Friedman, M.D., of Mount Zion Hospital, San Francisco, California, a nationally- known authority on heart disease who has spent 15 years tracing the medical histories of 3,000 San Francisco men, the majority of heart victims show the same com­ mon traits of excessive ambition, overwhelming aggression, impa­ tience, and slavishness to the clock -- and George was no ex­ ception. These "Type A" personal­ ities, as Dr. Friedman labels them, suffer two-and-a-half times as many heart attacks as their more relaxed and easygoing com­ panions. Among men under 50, the figure is three to one. While cardiologists agree that the full explanation of America's epidemic of heart disease has yet to be disclosed, certain causative factors have been isolated and identified. Just being male greatly increases the risk of heart attack; a family history of heart attacks is another factor; overweight is a third; and heavy cigarette smok­ ing definitely adds to the risk. (George qualified on all four counts.) High blood pressure is also implicated, along with heart­ beat irregularities, which may be a cause, and blood cholesterol, although no one has established its role with absolute certainty. But, as research continues, many investigators are coming to accept Dr. Friedman's view that the high- pressure, twentieth-century, post- industrial way of life is partially or fully to blame -- and that the "Is He !
