Wednesday, January 2, 1963 The very act of making a New Year's resolution means you may be trying too hard to be perfect, Dr. Frey explained.

"Resolutions tend to make people try even harder for perfection.

"Many of the emotional illnesses that affect parents and children could be avoided if parents learned to accept themselves as they are, human beings with limitations," the woman psychologist said.

Dr. Frey's advice might be translated into these resolutions: 1. I will not try to be a perfect mother (or father). If I make a mistake with my children, I will not brood about it.

My love will get through to them anyhow.

2. I will not expect my children to be perfect. I will not set rigid standards which they feel they must meet to win my love.

3. I will set limits for my children. I will not be the kind of mother (or father) who does "everything" for the children without disciplining them to do for themselves.

aculously strong, are subject to stress.

It is a well known fact that all around us in this world, men and women are cracking up. Why? Psychiatrists, we are informed, think that the main reascn is that they feel inadequate.

Many believe that they are born to failure and therefore think "failure" from day to day. Others are convinced that the burden of life is too much for them to bear and still others think that they have problems which do not have any passible solution, and that their guilt, actual and imagined, is too depressing.

The fact is that these people are really not failures as they imagine themselves to be. Many of them earn a good living, and are reasonably happy and adapt themselves to the social scheme of life.

But what breaks them down is the gnawing feeling of the fear of failure — not failure itself — and this is the ultimate end.

Avoid such feelings because they are not healthy. We all battle with such a detrimental thought now and then. But try to avoid brooding over it, try to ..nercoine irritation and worry, and arouse yourself to a new enthusiasm and putting life into threadbare topics.

4. There must be exposure to the activities of life. If the old individual is able to be up and around at all, he must never be allowed to settle in one chair or one room. He should be taken out frequently and brought into contact with the crowds and noise of active life. A necessary part of this is exposure to young people. It is common to hear the old person say in regard to even the aest places for their care, 'Oh, I don't want to be around all those old people.'

"Reason for this, of course, is that old people don't want to be reminded of how they look and act. In a group of simpatico younger people the oldster is apt to forget for a time and to effect some degree of rejuvenation thereby.

"To provide for these needs is no simple problem. But if we do not solve it, we are apt to find that we shall have an increasing number of homes and hotels for the aged in which they do nothing but watch each other and await the inevitable. It would be very sad indeed if this should come about." ) 0( ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY AT LODGE NO. 66, LINDEN HALL In both the English and Czech sections, readers will read the details of the Christmas Party held at Linden Sall on December 22nd.

15 ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIVITIES OF DISTRICT FIVE It is my very great pleasure to report on an event related to organizatior, al activities in District Five which would gladden the 'heart of any district organizer.

As everyone engaged in the organizational work knows, the matter of. succeeding in our endeavors to enroll new candidates for membership depends entirely on seeing the people. Any organizer who earnestly tells the story of the SPJST to four or five people every day simply cannot help but be eminently successful.

Today, Sister Lillian Kruse walked up to the counter of a jewelry store where she has made purchases on occasions and announced in a firm clear voice that she was selling fraternal insurance.0 ne of the young ladies working in the store who heard her responded by saying that she wanted to know more about Sister Kruse's subject. Sister Kruse enrolled this new member by signing her up on the spot, for a $5,000 endowment certificate.

Now it happens that Sister Lillian had been delayed in her organizing activities by several days of suffering from a virus infection. She took note of the fact that it made her feel very good to get such a

It gives me great pleasure to acknowledge the fact that Lodge No. 88 has accomplished a great step forward. This is due to the efforts of the hard-working Board of Directors, Brother President Tim Kostom, Birthday Club Sisters, Youth Club, Entertainment Committee and all the members and friends who helped out in the Loan Fund for our future home of Lodge No. 88.

Our lodge hall was full of merriment Christmas night, Dec. 25. This was the annual Christmas Dance. Music was furnished by the famous Czech Disc Jockey Joe Gavronovic of Rosenberg. This was some toe-tapping music that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. This same band will be back to play that good dance music on Saturday night Feb. 16. So keep that date

With Brfo. Morris' departure for West, the Czech community in the Dallas-Fort Worth area will be losing a hard-working, sincere (and singing) fraternal. y oung man. He will be hard to replace.

As chairman of a committee made up of representatives of nine Czech organizations in Dallas, he steered the Czech Festival to a great and successful climax at the State Fair, last Oct. 7th. He was Co-Chairman of this event in 1961, and Chairman in 1960. During 1962, he was nresident of RVOS Lodge 142 and president of Dallas Lodge 401, of the Western Bohemian Fraternal Association. He filled all of these positions capably and honestly. I would like to say here, Brothers and Sisters, that if the salary of the Editor were not attractive, we would never have gotten the services of Nick Morris.

As chairman of the Committee on Salaries and Donations at the last several conventions, I was sometimes criticized for raising the salaries of our officers. This committee could not decide which officer was entitled to a higher or lc—er salary, since these amounts are set ..?.e convention before the officers are elected.

Fourteen years ago, we paid our Czech editor 1\tr. Moucka, $200 a month, and Mr. Valcik, the English editor, also $200 a month. When Bro. Moucka passed away before the Houston convention, Mr. Valcik was elected editor, at a salary of $400 a month. Since that time, salaries have been increased by one-half. I remember that in the Schulenburg convention, we paid our Supreme Secretary, J. Kubena, $200 a month. I was the first delegate to propose that he receive an additional $50 a month, because I realized that he well deserved it. That was 40 years ago; today, our Supreme Secretary gets four times that amount. I was a businessman for many years, and I know frein experience that the "cheap" hand oftentimes was the most expensive.

Our meeting was very nice. Our president led us in the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a moment of silent tribute for our late departed Anton Ro•rekl and J. P. Moseley. We allocated $25 for the Children's Christmas party, which, was held on December 16th, in conjunction with the Circle of Czech Women, and

18 Sokol Zizka. We gave permission to Sis. B. Valcik to use the hall to teach the youngsters to sing and speak Czech. For this, we can be grateful mostly to Bro. Miro Jurcik, who represents us on the Board of Directors, where such decisions are made We had good officers for 1962, 0 and they were, therefore, re-elected for 1963.

They are: Arnold Vrla, President; Milton Vrla, Vice-President; Deanna Vrla, Secretary; Frances Jurcik, SecretaryTreasurer; Edward Kovar, Treasurer; Youth Leader, Helen Vrla, assisted by Mildred Kovar and Albina Vrla. Election of the various committees and of correspondents was postponed until our next meeting.

After the meeting, we enjoyed a delicious supper, then came games. I wish to remind you all that our next meeting will be held Sunday, January 6, and Bob and Ann Zvolanek will show us pictures of their recent trip to Europe and Czechoslovakia. They will be interesting, I'm sure, so please attend.

I wish you all a happy Holiday season, and a prosperous New Year.

Dr. Frederick J. Stare, head of the DeThe adults had a time trying to get us partment of Nutrition, Harvard Univerout of the hall. sity, writes about how food and good We have no immediate plans for the health affect our young people:

19 All teen-agers want to be healthy and happy.

Boys and girls share the same ambition: to be attractive and well-liked.

They all long for clean skin, bright eyes, :;piny hair. They recognize that firm muscles and gcod posture are necessary for . good looks. They should know that they cannot enjoy either work or play without plenty of energy.

That's where food makes a difference.

We are what we eat. Faod helps, and helps a lot.

Every teen-ager who wants to be liked and admired by his group — and who doesn't — needs to practice the rules of good nutrition. NOW is the time to begin.

Teen-agers cannot do it alone. They need help, and this requires understanding •and cooperation of parents and teachers. When teen-agers are concerned about being fat or skinny, weak or weary, it's up to the adults to be available for advice. And it's up to the elders to set good examples, and practice what they preach.

"Do as I say, not as I do" won't work when it comes to good food habits.

For fitness, adults as well as their children should base their meals on the Basic Four: 2 servings of milk or its many products, such as ice cream or cheese; 2 servings of meat or fish or poultry or eggs, 4 servings of vegetables and fruits (one to be citrus, and one to be darg green or yellow), some enriched or whole grain bread or cereal.

Unfortunatel y. in this regard, adults fail in their responsibility.

Mothers set the pattern and girls follow suit in the no-breakfast routine. The rest of the day they cut out eggs, cut down meat, and avoid bread. What happens? They end up anemic.

Thousands and thousands of high school girls all over the land don't get enough iron. They lack zip. They are not alert for classes and dates. Iron-rich foods just cannot be by-passed.

When it comes to the boys, they eat breakfast but skimp an lunch. Like so many fathers, they go light on fruits and vegetables but heavy on pie and cake.

Is that the kind of menu served at a training table? NO! Athletes know food makes a difference.

President Kennedy has a word for it Physical fitness. The space age needs a sturdy generation. This means exercise, and the right amount of the right foods. There's no magic way to health and physical fitness.

For Your Information:..

FOR TEXAS: HELP FOR 250 SMALL TOWNS A 15-year plan for industrial growth of Texas in a period in which population is forecast to jump 40 per cent to 14,000,000 was outlined Thursday to Governor elect John B. Connally.

It was drafted by the Texas Induustrial Commission and presented at a breakfast meeting presided over by E. B. Germany of Dallas, commission chairman.

After Mr. Germany had told the group that the commission's primary interest had been a goal of locating small ndustries in 250 small towns, Mr. Connally agreed.

Mr. Germany pointed out that firms in small towns would offer employment to local people who could work eight hours a day and then have time to add other sources of income, such, as through farming or raising livestock and chickens.

"If we could have 250 little towns with little industries," said Germany, who is chairman of the board of Lone Star Steel Co., "we would have more solid citizens."

Agreeing, Mr. Connally said that in 10 months of campaigning he had found in almost every community he visited a prinary interest to be attraction and exoansion of industry.

He told the group he wanted to confer with them again before his inauguration Jan. 15 on financing the state's program for attracting industry to Texos. Tourist and industry attraction was :mphasized by Mr. Connally in his campaign.

Cennally has proposed a Bureau cf Commerce to replace existing tourist industry agencies. r:.n.)-cl-ty and others agreed that financing the program, should be with ser than asking industry io share half the cost. That was done to :ram started. its program entitled e::ans" to Mr. Connally, • C os ,3 any said "we feel that Texas on e greater' industrialization by he reah vation cf these goals."

The plan included a program for each of 20 industrial classifications, which were analyzed as to number of plants and workers this year and anticipated 15 years hence.

The commission study indicated there are now 10,581 plants with 488,250 em)loyees with a projection of 14,750 plants end 802,250 workers in 197'7. Assumptions were based on an anticipated state pop-

Wednesday, January 2, 1963 ulation of 14,000,000 in 1977, a 40 percent increase in population but a 61 per cent increase in workers.

Conclusions of the study included: "The small communities should benefit from expansion in the standardized apparel plants, furniture and fixtures, plastics, supply manufacturing points for the snoe industry, major primary metal facilities and fabricated metal plants.

"The larger cities in the 'state should become manufacturing centers for the style apparel, specialty printing, basic shoe distribution facilities and communication and electronic plants.

"Continued work on the water problem is essential for a healthy industrial growth. Low-cost transportation is another need for goods movement, and improvement and development of marketing techniques will greatly aid all industrial growth."

The commission also pointed up the necessity for an upgrading of the educational systems to provide the pool of skilled techniCans and workers which can he the best asset for the changing economy in industrial growth.

The report outlined a 7-point program of over-all action including: more research and development; correction of transportation problems; more consumer industries; taking advantage of the new NASA facility for "brain-power"; up-grading of educational system; and continued cooperation with public and private industrial development agencies.

The commission is mailing copies of this report to regional and local groups for their action initiating their own longrange industrial growth programs. )O( LET'S USE ALL OF TEXAS' RESOURCES Most people. More industry. A bigger state. A bigger economy.

That, in general, is the outlook for Texas under the plan drafted by the Texas Industrial Commission and submitted to Governor-elect John Connally.

It is a far-reaching plan, involving a , reat many people and a great deal of industry.

But figures alone don't tell the story.

It is a plan aimed at building not only Dallas and Houston but also hundreas of other places. And it is a plan aimed not merely at developing a few big industries. out many small ones as well.

It is a plan aimed at taking up a lot of the slack that began to develop when Texas moved out of the rural and ag ricultural category into one characterzed as urban and industrial.

Many communities are drying up for lack of income and for lack of industry to hold their younger citizens.

The problem is to bring industry to them, not to have the younger men and women leave home to look for industrial jobs.

The Industrial Commission figures that the 40 per cent increase in population will also mean about 61 per cent increase in workers.

Keen research minds are seeking ways around the immunity barrier to acceptance of other tissues and organs.

On the evidence that each individual's tissues contain a specific substance, Or antigen, that stimulates antibodies, radiation or drugs are being used to knock out the antibody mechanism for a time.

Then the transplanted 'organ might still survive when the antibody mechanism later came back into action.

A first great break came in January, 1959, when John Riteis of Milwaukee was given a kidney donated by his fraternal twin, Andrew. Transplants had worked well between identical twins, presumably having the same antigen, but fraternal twins are not exactly alike.

A team of specialists at Harvard and Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, including Drs. Joseph, E. Murray and John P. Merrill, used a powerful dose of x-rays to knock out Riteris' antibody-forming mechanism, then transplanted the kidney.

Both men are in full health today, nearly four years later. Since radiation could have harmful long-term effects, experiments recently turned to using anti-cancer drugs which suppress at least part of the antibody mechanism.

In a few persons, borrowed kidneys have kept working for seven months thus far through drug treatment.

In animal experiments, researchers are attacking basic problems, refining drug treatments, and hunting still better chemical agents.

All the problems ahead are still formidable. But confidence is growing that the dead one day will contribute organs to keep the 90 per cent healthy alive for many more years. ) 0( SCIENTISTS SAY PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT People do differ greatly in many respects, top U.S, scientists emphasized recently, at the University of Texas.

The keynote came from a University of Texas biochemist, Dr. Roger J. Williams: "There has been too much study of the hypothetical average man. We have ,devote.d too little attention to individuals. That is the only kind of people we have — individuals."

Dr. Williams' career has been devoted to analyzing the biological differences among p.eopie.

People differ greatly in physical reaction to fear, added Dr. David A. Hamburg, a phychiatrist at Stanford University Medical School in Palo Alto, Calif.

British - born Alexander G. Bearn, a medical doctor doing research at Rockefeller Institute in New York, told of differences in human blood, according to race, geographic location and other factors.

"A gene good for one 'environment may be semi-iethal in another," he said, adding a quotation from William Cowper: " `Variety is the spice of life that gives it all its flavor.'

He predicted that further research on recognition of biochemical differences will furnish significant benefits for mankind, Particularly in health. Dr. Ream told of research on the proteins in human blood, describing the variations, for example, between whites, Negroes and other races as "astonishing " Psychiatrist Hamburg asserted that the understanding of individual differences have an important place in studying the fear responses, which he said becomes increasingly vital to the health and well-being of man in a complex world.

Fear is a reaction to something which threatens an individual's survival or threatens his self-respect, Dr. Hamburg said. He told 'of scientific studies on humans viewing emotional movies, taking difficult examinations or awaiting major surgery, by measuring their nerveous and b/Idy- chemical reactions.

Movies shown to a test group of young

Wednesday, January 2, 1963 adults were "High Noon," and "A Walk in the Sun," both action pictures. Dr. hamburg said the emotional response ::,btained from written tests and blood samples indicated that these films itirred immense fear patterns in some viewers but left others unconcerned.

A group of medical students at Duke University, taking an important examination, were found to have increased heartbeats from apprehension early during the test. This usually leveled out after the examination got underway.

The researcher said that moderate `fear" helps a student takin,g a test — exerting him to better efforts. He said one harmful extreme is the student who "panics" on a test, and the oppisite — "nonchalance" to the point of poor performance.

The danger of a "natural selection" system was related by Dr. Theodosius Dobzhansky of Rockefeller Institute, New York. Because of the author's illness, his paper was read by Dr. R. P. Wagner of Austin.

"Natural selection does not guarantee survival," Dr. Dobzhansky wrote, noting that the system failed to save the dinosaur from extinction. "Natural selection has no purpose. Man introduces purpose, (only) man . . . has achieved the knowledge that he came by evolution, by the will of his Creator."

The scientist added that "biology alone is insufficient" because it lacks ethics, which are furnished by man's spiritual and cultural inheritance. He noted the changes in culture to which man must adjust his own body.

"Our animal past is irretrievably lost," he concluded, but expressed hope that humanity has the knowledge and ability to match the everchanging world. iOl CULTURE LEADS IN AMERICA There are 32,000,000 Americans who play musical instruments among the 50,000,000 classified as "do-it-yourself" addicts. There are 1,000,000 amateur "art" photographers opposed to the commercial or professional. There are 500,000 amateur actors in the collegiate-community theater setup of the country.

These findings of the Stanford University Research Center contain other startling statistics. There are more piano players than licensed fishermen and just as many painters as hunters.

Twice as many persons listen to concerts and recitals as attend major league baseball games.

All the known boaters, skiers, golfers and skin divers combined are fewer than the theatergoers.

Several warnings were subsequently issued of potential toxicity of the drug for bone marrow.

Because of its effectiveness and the relative infrequency of undesirable side effects, the drug quickly attained popularity among doctors.

By Wendell Williams, PhD Texas has never had a better chance to set up a touchdown march in the field of mental health than there is in the coming months. Now is the time to coordinate efforts, develop strategy, and field a balanced team. Ten million Texans will be watching and hoping to share in the victory.

The team will include the many state and voluntary agencies and professional and citizens' organizations already interested and experienced in dealing with mental health needs at both state and community levels. These resources represent a tremendous depth of strength on the bench and on the field. New recruits will provide additional resources as activity progresses.

The opponent is mental illness, the number one health problem of our nation. To defeat such an opponent, we must score significant gains, as well as withstand his onslaught on the goal we are defending — mental health.

Every coach and quarterback knows the importance of calling the right play at the right time. A number of developments in recent years indicate that the time is ripe for a big push to avoid the necessity of desperation goal line stands.

Since 1955, the Joint Commission on Mental Illness and Health has studied and reported in 11 volumes the overall mental health needs and problems of the nation. These reports have recommended the 'development of mental health services for prevention, early diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation at the Community level along with the ,gradual elimination of the large state hospital, isolated from the population centers.

Meanwhile, Texas has been working to improve hospital care, to provide adult outpatient clinic services in major metropolitan areas, and to contract for patient care in general hospitals in the community. Community preventive services have also developed in the form of community guidance center, regional mental health center, and the incorporation of mental health activities in the programs of local health departments and other community agencies. We now

Wednesday, January 2, 1963 have experience on which to base a broader and more aggressive attack on mental illness. Number one priority for the Texas Association for Mental Health in the coming year is the encouragement of statewide planning of a long range mental health program for Texas.

Any forward-looking plan to serve theneedsof 15 million Texans by 1975 must be comprehensive. It must include, the immediate and pressing needs of the mentally ill and for the institutions and clinics which seek to serve them.

It must include the approximately 10 per cent of our population not in hospitals but needing professional mental health services to help them function effectively in their families, in their communities, and on the job. It must encompass the 90 per cent who enjoy varying degrees of "wellness," to prevent the mental and emotional disabilities and impairment which accompany the spiraling pressures of an increasingly urbanized, industrialized, high-pressure age. )Of DISSOLVING KIDNEY STONES A substance capable of dissolving certain types of kidney stones and in some cases preventing their recurrence has been described by a Cincinnati, Ohio, urologist.

Dr. William P. Mulvaney said the solution, called hemiacidrin, was developed from an organic solvent used for cleaning calcium slats from dairy equipment.

Modified and buffered, it has been capable of breaking up calcium and increasing the solubility of •normally insoluble calcium salts through the formation of water-soluble complexes, he said.

(Stones, which form in the bladder and urinary tract as well as in the kidneys, contain salts and mixtures of salts along with various other substances).

Dr. Mulvaney said stones continue to recur in some patients despite the most careful surgical and medical treatment and surgery must be repeated. He said, however, that it may eventually become technically impossible to reoperate effectively.

This situation can now be overcome by administering the solvent through a tube directly into the kidney. One such patient, with only one remaining kidney, has been free of stone formation for more than five years under this treatment, he said.

The urologist reported on the solvent at the recent clinical meeting of the American Medical Association in Los Angeles, Calif.

LUNG CANCER DETECTION Frequent chest x-rays for men over 50 have assumed ever greater importance as a result of a Veterans Administration survey.

The necessity of regular checks was combined with advice for early surgery of anyone with a possible cancerous lung lesion after information from more than 70 VA and Armed Forces hospitals was collected and studied.

Investigators found that of 900 male patients having surgery for a single lung nodule (a small swelling or protuberande), 55 per cent were cancerous.

A report issued after the study stressed that the only way to tell definitely if a lone lung nodule is cancerous is by surgery. The investigators said that skin tests are unreliable in establishing the cause of the nodule, even when it results from tuberculosis or fungal disease.
