L a w r e n c e E . L a m b , M . D . , N e w s A m e r i c a S e r v i c e Bad memory not always senility By Dr. Lawrence E. Lamb DEAR DR. LAMB: I am desperate. I'm a 54-year-old female and I'm very senile. I thought it would help if I got a job, so I got a job in a r.iotel as a desk clerk. I come up short every time I count my money. I count it over and over again. If I can't get it to come out the same I get the lady next door to count it for me. Last night a guy came in and paid his rent, 70 dollars. I gave him his receipt and all his money back. Of course, I always pay the money I'm short out of my pocket. Since I'm broke I can't put more money in the cash register. I take Sinequan for depression. What else can I do to help? DEAR READER: You may not be senile at all. Difficulty in remember­ ing, and in problem solving such as counting your money, doesn't always mean senility. Since Sinequan is a prescription item for treating depres­ sion, I assume that you are seeing a physician and have a basis for saying you have a depression. One of the most common disorders mistaken for senility is depression. It can cause the symptoms you are com­ plaining about. And while Sinequan is a good medicine, it can cause mental confusion, too. Mental senility is not as common as you might think from some news stories. Only five percent of the popula­ tion over 65 has^senile dementia, and many of those are well past 65, so senility does 4ccur in your age group, but is rare„ Depression is not. Depres­ sion can be treated, but many cases of advance^ senility cannot. Please read carefully The Health Letter, Special Report 47, "The Mind: Aging or Illness," which I am sending you. Others who want this issue can send 75 cents with a long, stamped, self-addressed envelope for it tp me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Bok 19622, Irvine, CA 92713. It will explain to you how various illnesses may be confused with senility. I am quite concerned about the re­ cent trend to call everything Alzheimer's disease. At present we do not know how to prevent or cure Alzheimer's disease, but physicians do know how to treat depression, how to help prevent multiple brain infarcts and even how to improve circulation to the brain, in some cases. It is most im­ portant that anyone with failing men­ tal ability have a complete examina­ tion' to be certain what the real cause is. DEAR DR. LAMB: Recently I lost CROSSWORD my wife to a subarachnoid aneurysm (brain hemorrhage). I have been told by some doctors that this was a con­ genital condition and by others it could have formed later on. How does a per­ son anticipate this? My wife occasionally complained about stiffness in her neck. On the day this happened she insisted we take a vacation at a resort three hours from our home, and did not complain of any ill feelings. She had been under stress and tension for a period of some weeks before this, DEAR READER: A subarachnoid hemorrage is usually from arteries on the surface of the brain and enclosed in the membranous space that contains the cerebrospinal fluid. These can be congenital "berry" aneurysms, so called from the small berry-like shape. But one can also have generalized enlargement from a damaged arterial wall caused by fatty-cholesterol deposits. Often there are no warning signs. A severe headache is the most common complaint. Sometimes a minor headache is all that is noted, but if it occurs with stiffness of the neck in a person not usually subject to headaches it is wise to consult your doctor. Anything that raises the blood pressure may cause the aneurysm to rupture.

Several dozen world- class players are each invited to sub­ mit an entry, including partner's name, but no one is guaranteed accep­ tance. A committee selects only the strongest pairs. That decision is sub- • jecjtive, but the quality of the field has always been high. The scoring is in in­ ternational match points (IMPs), and so there is a premium for bidding and making games and slams. As in te^m- of-four play, overtricks are not iitipor- tant. This week we will look at deals from last May's Cavendish Pairs. Today's deal demonstrates the val­ ue of a 5-3 fit in a minor suit for slam purposes. North-South had no more than 11 tricks at no-trump, but six dia­ monds was easy. The three-diamond response to the Stayman three-club bid denied a four-card major. Four di­ amonds showed a suit, and four hearts was a cue-bid in support of diamonds. North then asked for aces and bid the slam. South won the opening lead with the jack of hearts and led a spade to dum­ my's king and the ace from East. It was easy now for declarer to ruff the third spade with his small diamond, draw trump and get rid of dummy's last spade loser on the third high heart. The only way six no-trump would make is if East sticks the spade ace in his back pocket and never finds it.
