The Light Company has
installed a toll-free Nuclear
Information Hotline to their
Houston office The number,
Enterprise 70066, is available
through local operators and
will be manned Monday
through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5
p.m., said HLAP District
Manager Ray Fiedler.
The line will provide
residents of Wallis, Sealy, and
surrounding communities with
information on nuclear power
and the Allens Creek Nuclear
Generating Station. The plant
to be built near Wallis will
include a recreational park and
lake. A Nuclear Regulatory
Commission construction per-
mit is expected to be obtained
in early 1982, Fiedler said.
Projected completion is set for
1991.
The Nuclear Information
Hotline is also available to
residents of Bellville, Brook-
shire, Burleigh, Cat Spring,
Frydek, Mixville, Orchard,
Pattison, San Felipe, and
Simonton.

study of participants in a
weight control program.
“Losing weight requires a
complete change in lifestyle
and principles and can take
yean; it is one of the hardest
things people try to do!’ said
John Foreyt, Ph.D., associate
professor of medicine at
Baylor and director of The
Methodist Hospital Diet Modi-
fication Clinic.
He recently completed a
study of the effectiveness of
the program in which behavior
modification is taught and
found that it was successful for
a majority of the program
participants. More than 70
percent of the patients
maintained their weight loss or
continued to lose weight one
year after completing the
program.
Additional findings of the
study were that:
—Women have a harder
time losing weight than men.
—People who have been
overweight all their lives may
not find it more difficult to
lose weight.
Foreyt concluded from the
study that to lose and keep
weight off, people must make
changes in their behavior, such
as avoiding the food table
when at a party, or reading or
exercising instead of eating
when depressed.
He also found that a
person’s sex and the amount of
weight he or she wants to lose

independence into a thriving
pioneer town. Outside obser-
van at the time said it was
' absurd that this muddy pioneer
settlement on the banks of
mosquito-infested Buffalo Bay- .
ou, 50 miles inland from open
seas, should ever hope to
achieve greatness.
But Houston evolved from
strictly a timber, cotton and
cattle shipping town to the
nation’s second-largest port in
foreign general cargo and the
third-largest in total tonnage
moved.
The establishment of the
' NASA Space Center brought a
■ new kind of “brain pool” to
Houston. Today, space scien-
ces play an important role in
the city’s economy.
» Indeed, Rice University
established -he nation’s first
College of Space Sciences
which performs a significant
service for the U.S. space

’ Several miles east of the
, central business district stands
the world’s tallest monumental ■
column, the San Jacinto
Monument, marking the site
where Texas won its indepen- j
dence from Mexico. Five
hundred and seventy feet
below the giant star atop the
monument is the Museum of
Regional History, depicting
the Texas story from the
' Indian civilization to Texas as
a Katt in the Union.
' Nearby in permanent berth .
on the Houston Ship Channel
is the U.S.S. Texas, the only
remaining dreadnaught of two
' world wars. The Battleship of
r Texas was presented to the
‘ State by the U.S. Navy and
f today is a popular museum and
flagship of the Texas Navy.
In an effort to preserve the
, image of Houston as it existed
* in past years, the Harris
, County Heritage Society has
implemented a plan to build a
village replica of Houston’s
. early commercial and residen-
; tial life.
, ' Called Sam Houston Histor-
! ical Park, the village contains
restored homes of famous
families, an old German
3 colony church, an outdoor
• bandstand and the Long Row,
* a replica of Houston’s first
*, commercial properties includ-
' ing a general store, a library
and fancy shop, barbershop
and town hall.
Downtown, there is a
modem airconditioned three-
mile underground tunnel and •
sky-walk system with more
then 31 connections.
A foremost attraction is the
' Astrodome, the world’s first
• indoor air-conditioned stad-
ium and home of big-league
baseball, professional football
and soccer, and the site of
t numerous auto races, rodeos,
boxing, trade shows and
• Hollywood headliners.
Immediately adjacent to the
Astrodome is the Astrohall,
550,000 square feet of air-
. , conditioned exhibit and meet-
ing space. Astrohall also is the

Although the program
helped most of the patients, he
said, the average weight loss
was relatively modest (under
20 pounds) and the program
was unsuccessful for many
patients, especially women.
Three times more males than
females in the program were
successful at achieving their
goal weight.
“This was probably because
men have less body fat than
women, and women are
around food more often than
males; Foreyt said.
Foreyt’s study also con-
firmed that the more weight
someone wants to lose, the
harder the task. Only two
percent of the patients who
wanted to lose more than 30
pounds reached their goal,
except for one woman who lost
more than 100 pounds.
The study’s results do give
hope to people who have been
overweight all their lives.
“Those who were fat since
childhood did not have any
more difficulty losing weight
than the recently overweight:’
Foreyt said.
