That is the question posed by a team of University of Min­ nesota doctors conducting a study of the relationship bet­ ween cholesterol and heart disease. "Heat disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the United States," said Dr. Henry Buchwald, the head of the Twin Cities based study. Nearly all heart disease results from atherosclerosis, or har- Safety Hints By Alan J. Dixon Secretary of State As the time approaches for our children to return to school, I urge all drivers to be doubly cautious when approaching school areas. Be alert for small children as they walk to and from school, as well as children playing on school grounds. Difficult to see and often unpredictable in their actions, youngsters sometimes dart into the street from bet­ ween parked cars. Watch for signs in school areas. Shaped like an old- fashioned schoolhouse, they warn of school buildings or grounds adjacent to the roadway. 1 School crossing signs are etected at the crosswalk. Slow, ftratch carefully, and be prepared to stop. Remember, too, schools hold classes at different hours, and some activities are held at night. This sign wiil also be used when there are crossing signals. School speed limit signs are used in unincorporated areas where both a reduced speed limit and a no-passing zone have been established. The and no-passing rules only on school days when children are present. Be aware. Our children are our greatest resource. (A copy of the Rules of the Road will be sent to you upon request.

Atherosclerois gradually thickens and narrows arteries until blood can no longer flow through them; the result of this narrowing is usually acute illness, the most prevalent of which is a heart attack. According to Dr. Buchwald, cholesterol, a fatty substance, is found in diseased arteries and may represent a clue to the cause of atherosclerois. Also, the amount of cholesterol found in blood can predict, somewhat, SMALL BUSINESS REBUILDER You've invested a lot of time, imoney and energy in your business. Don't let a disaster wipe it out.

VA chief Max Cleland said the review was prompted by his concern over possible long range effects of exposure to radiation and herbicides during military service. As a result, Cleland said, he WORKWISE has halted the practice, in effect since 1965, of disposing of certain raw medical files 15 years after a veteran's last treatment at a VA medical facility. Before disposal, the voluminous raw records were digested into a more easily stored and more accessible form and retained for 50 years after the veteran's last contact with VA. No data was lost under the system, he em­ phasized. Cleland advised the General Services administration, which has government wide responsibility for records management, that VA would suspend its congressionally- approved records disposition plan pending a complete review of possible new medical requirements for the in­ formation. "While no essential medical data is lost under our current disposition process," he said, "I feel it is important that we thoroughly study this subject as it relates to our current records, to make absolutely certain that all records are retained as long as there is any possible use for them." 0 how likely one is to have heart attacks. Facts such as these have led many doctors to use various means to lower blood cholesterol in their patients; it is still uncertain, however, whether such lowering can actually prevent heart attacks. The University of Minnesota research team is now seeking individuals from 25 through 59 years of age who have had only one heart attack in the past five years. Such individuals may obtain more information about the study by calling the University of Minnesota Hyperlipidemia Study collect at 612-376-4494. 1. I have been unemployed for 3 months and decided to use a private employment agency to find a job. I agreed to pay the placement fee because I really want employment. The private employment agency found a job which wanted their placement fee at that time. Being unemployed has left me. Without the money to pay the placement fee. When does the applicant have to pay the fee to the employment agency? Usually the applicant who agrees to pay the placement fee is required to pay the fee when the job offer has been accepted or at some other time as may be mutally agreed upon in writing with the agency. If you have questions relating to private employment agencies in Illinois write to Illinois Department of Labor, Private Employment Agencies Division, 910 South Michigan Avenue, Room 1863, Chicago, Illinois 60605, (312 ) 793-2817. 2. Are you aware that in job service offices, some people get serviced faster than others? If you mean waiting in line at the reception point, you're right. Veterans are served before non-veterans, by law. There should be a sign to that effect at the reception desk. Generally, the first available interviewer will call the name of the applicant with the earliest time marked on the identification card. If you have indicated a need for "special" services such as training, testing, etc., you may be in- -- SSL. terviewed by a specialist who, again, is calling people by earliest time, but whose schedule may be slightly behind the "regular" in­ terviewers. Also, the process is always faster the second time you visit job service. Questions may be submitted to Workwise, 910 S. Michigan, Room 1823 Chicago, 60605.
