My husband doesn't know how to relax and is constantly on the go. If you ever saw a type A personality, he is.lt. I've tried to tell him to slow down, but he won't listen 19 me. He has to run everything. If there is a problem he has to solve it. He can't just sit still and enjoy himself. All that energy is fine but I'm afraid he is headed for a heart attack. •„ He is a workaholic and, of course, he is very successful in his business, but he could forget about it once in a while. Even when we went on vacation he had e»ch day planned with activities, not relaxation. The only good thing I can say about his habits is that he does stay fit. He doesn't smoke, but I wish you would encourage him to eliminate some of the stress and just relax before it is too late. He is 44 now but seems to think he is still 24. DEAR READER: Remember that one man's meat is another man's poison. What you are describing as stress may be fun for your husband. * There really is no evidence thtft doing? things, being active and * making decisions is harmful to your health - quite the contrary. And thpro is no reliable evidence that THERES fluuflysBM RHGiE- being a. type A personality will increase yOur risk of heart attacks. On the contrary, some studies suggest that teal type A individuals are less likely to have a heart attack. * > Remember that heart attacks were first described in this century. They were most uncommon before then. If they were caused by active energetic type A personalities, that would mean our forefathers were not type A's, and I rather thftik some of them were. There must rjflve even been a little hostility present when Aaron Burr shot Alexander Hamilton. * •\ Stress* Is Important in some cirgunstances/and some forms of stress -- or better stated, frustration - can cause medical problems, but it is overrated. Stress is even beneficial in some cases. It depends a lot on how a. person handles stress: whether he drinks lots of coffee and overeats or couples stress with a good lifestyle. I have discussed hqw to live and grew with stress in The Health Letter 20-12, With Stress," which I am seeding you.Others who want this issue can send 75 cents with a long, stamped, self-addressed envelope for it to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 19622, Irvine, CA 92713. Meanwhile, keep your husband lean, fit and happy. ' DEAR DR. LAMB: Is there a cure for tendonitis? 1 woke up one morning with a pain in my left shoulder. The doctor gave me two shots, plus I had therapy and am exercising every day. But It seems to be getting worse. DEAR DR. LAMB: It is often called bursitis, but It Is usually tendonitis, and It means inflammation of the tendon or the sheath around the tendon. It is a much more common cause for pain in the shoulder than arthritis. Often there are calcium deposits In the tendon, and some of them ara from physical Injury, usually chronic from repeated minor injury. Steroid injections are used In some cases. Other anti-inflammatory medicines are helpful. Since the tendonitis Is often caused by injury from overuse, It is more often advised to rest the shoulder, but it is important to move the joint through its full range of motion several times a day to avoid a frozen shoulder, with a significant loss of mobility. Physical therapy is helpful In obtaining the best results. The Inflammation usually subsides, but if it was brought on by too much use, or improper use, it is, wise to eliminate the repeated stress on your shoulder.

One player will be a top-notch diverse skills. bidder, another will defend hands with diabolical cunning, and still another will exercise consummate skill as declarer. I have long thought that the most dangerous opponent on defease on tbe^ North American bridge scene was Mark Lair, but recently he gave me a sample of his excellent declarer play. " Let me add a footnote to the bidding. The final pass by East was not a precipitate action. In fact, he first huddled for quite a long while. There's nothing wrong with that, but you'd better be aware that against the likes of Mark Lair, you can be figura­ tively exposing your hand Lair ruffed the second club. How would you play next? Most of us would go to dummy's heart ace and lead the queen of diamonds. That will set you. West will win the king and play to partner's spade ace, and another club play will promote the setting trick with West's 10-9 of diamonds. Lair realized that the slow pass from East indicated a probable diamond void To avoid the trump promotion via another club lead, he played a low diamond from his hand at trick three. The defense was now helpless. If West rose with the king and put East In with a spade, declarer could simply ruff the. third club with the diamond ace and draw (he remaining trumps with dummy's Q-J.
