Solution to swallowed air
DEAR DR LAMB - I've
read several of your columns
about people, having excess
gas ana, as a result, I learned
about my own condition I've
had to be something l was
doing when I was* home 1
always took my teeth out
(lower plate) when I was
home. Would you believe that
WHO ARE THESE people and why are they smiling? The man in the foreground is
Lord Patrick Lichfield, photographer and cousin of Queen Elizabeth II. Several
years ago, he made the background portrait of the British royal family. They are
smiling because Lichfield placed a TV set tuned to Groucho Marx beside his camera
to hold their attention. Lichfield is touring the U.S. with an exhibit of his works,
sponsored by a British tobacco company, State Express. , *
Reader's on women's rights-
A recent column concerned
two women who were repeat-
edly and rudely interrupted
during a conversation over
drinks by a man who assumed
they would not have been in a
' bar if they had not wanted to
be picked up
I asked for reader reactions
to the situation, and the
responses poured in. Here are
a few rPjiresentative exam-
ples:
DEAR DR BLAKER -
Because there is a commonly
accepted norm that females
alone in a bar are looking for
male propositions, one should
not really expect to be able to
have a quiet drink in that kind
of setting.
Why not patronize a restau-
rant that serves cocktails and
avoid the problem? I do,
however, wish that things
were different. (This response
was frpm a woman.)
DEAR DR BLAKER -
Those two women were not
doing anything wrong, The
more we refuse to be intimi-
dated by the opinions of igno-
rant people, the safer and
more secure our world will
become for women who only
want equal privileges
This goes back to 'our being
treated as sex objects with no
understanding of our rights as
hufnan beings I hope women
unite and fight prejudice
whenever and wherever it
occurs - even in bars. (This
was also from a woman.)
DEAR DR. BLAKER
What an invasion of privacy! I
hope more women speak but
against tjiis kind of behavior.
In no way did the two wom-
en ask for the ill treatment
they received. (This reply was
from a man.)
DEAR DR BLAKER - I
personally feel that any
imply in your column
Personally, I am fed up
with being so intimidated and
I want to start being more of
my own person. However. I
am also frightened of break-

WALLACE, Ed.D.
Copley News Service
Janet, 15, of San Diego,
Calif, (one of the world’s
great cities), • likes a guy
with “shady” morals and
wants to know if she should
date him again. Bev Martin,
16, from Odessa, Texas (one
of the great high school foot-
ball cities in the United
States), and Clyde Brock-
man, 16, who lives in Michi-
gan City, Ind. (where high
school basketball is king),
will join me in solving
Janet’s problem.
Dr. Wallace: Last month I
had my first “car” date
with this really cute guy. We
went to a drive-in and saw a
movie that was rated “PG.”
He wanted to see an "R”
rated film but I said no.
During the movie be con-
tracted the Italian sickness
known as “roamin’ hands"

Paris.
lemale — whether alone or in
a group of half a dozen — who
goes to any bar, hotel, motel,
nightclub or disco unescorted
by a male is looking for and
secretly hoping she will
attract a man’s attention.
Some won’t admit it. But
why else would they go’’
They might say it’s just to
relax with a lady friend, but
in truth they are hoping for a
fast pick-up — and really ask-
ing for it. (This was from a
man.) *
DEAR DR BLAKER - I
am so glad you raised this
important issue. Because of
the connotations of going to a
bar alone, I have never set
foot inside one without a man
by my side.
But that isn’t all. 1 can’t
even go into a restaurant or
coffee shop and sit by myself
without feeling that someone
might think I am trying to get
picked up; —
So, as you can see, this
problem has broader implica-
tions for women than you
ing certaiii ‘ rules."
Maybe if I knew what most
of your readers thought about
this, I would feel more confi-
dent.
DEAR READER - Luckily
for you, the results of * my
informal survey show a con-
sensus among women and
men alike that a woman
should feel free to have a
drink in a bar alone or with
others of her sex without the
assumption being made that
she is looking for a man.
I think this conclusion
reflects feelings generally in
the United States today about
the importance of equality for
women.

Clarence Dixon, 1031 N,
Davis, who underwent a heart
bypass operation Thursday
morning was reported in
critical condition in the ip-
tensive care unit at Baylor
Hospital in Dallas by his
nephew, Joe Orr of Sulphur

Earl Payne of Sulphur
Springs was a business visitor
in Commerce Friday.
and he wouldn’t leave me
alone. [
1 went out with him again
and he started to smoke a
joint while tfe was driving.
When I asked him to stop
smoking, he proceeded to
tell me that if l didn't like it.
I could get out. I did (1 was
only four blocks from
home).
He has called me again
and wants to take me out. I
like him and really would
like to see him again but
something inside keeps tell-
ing me no. Please have the
guest writers also give their
opinions. — Janet, San
Diego, Calif.
Janet: Talk to this boy
face to face and come to an
agreement before the date
takes place: as to where you
both will go, how he will act,
what he won’t smoke, and
that he will be a gentleman
and bring you home — on
time.
- If he does agree, give it a
go but if he doesn't keep his
word, that ends it with him.
Usually, I would advise you
to "forget the guy" but I
bow to your statement, "I
like him and really would
like to see him again.”
Reluctantly, I’ll give him
one more chance. — Dr
Wallace
Hi Janet: This boy Seems
to have sex and pot on his
mind quite a bit and it ap-
pears that he only wants to
use you. '
Regardless, I think I’d
give him one trial date.
Make it after school and in
daylight. If he behaves, he
earns another date. If he
acts like a goon, even slight-
ly, dump the guy. — Bev,
Odessa, Texas
Hi Janet: You have given
this guy two chances and
both times he blew it. Listen
to the voice that is telling -
you no.
There are too many nice
guys around, so why choose
a loser? — Clyde, Michigan
City, Ind.

was when 1 swallowed air” I
had gotten to the place .where
1 was afraid to eat and lost
needed weight I've already
helped one friend with this
knowledge and am back to
normal again If it hadn’t been
for your column, 1 woukfnev-
er have known about swallow-
ing air.
DEAR READER Thank
you for your helpful letter and
congratulations on finding out
why you were swallowing air
Your observation is consistent
with the point that’ ajiyone
who has ill-fitting dentures-is
apt to be an air swallower So
good teeth and wearing them
does help prevent the problem
in many people.
Because of your thoughtful-
ness in expressing this to
other readers, 1 am sending
you The Health Letter num-
ber 6-8, Controlling Gaseous-
ness.
I hope your thoughtful sug-
gestion will be of use to others
who have the habit of not
wearing their teeth or who
need dentures or use improp-
erly fitting dentures
DEAR DR LAMB When
I went to have my prescrip-
tion for Colbenemid refilled
the other day, the druggist
told me about another drug
that’s cheaper than what I’m
now taking. Please read the
tag he put on the bottle. Do
you think this drug is as good
as Colbenemid and can I buy
it over the counter?
DEAR READER - The lit-
tle tag you sent me ’ says,
"This drug is available in cost
saving generic Please ask us
about it." That means that
your pharmacist gave you
exactly the same medicine as
you’ve been getting all along
So, of course, it should be just
as effective.
The difference here is the
brand name I know this is
confusing to the public but
we’ve had to put up with it in
non-medical items for a long
time
To stay out of the medical
area and the problems
involved, let’s just look at
common baking soda. You're
probably used to buying it
with a brand name but its gen-
eric name, meaning its chemi-
cal name, should be sodium
bicarbonate Buying sodium
bicarbonate might be cheaper
than buying one of the brand
names of baking soda.
Aspirin is sold under differ-
ent. brand names but it s all
aeetylsalicylic acid. The
exceptions to this are aspirin
preparations that have had
other chemicals added to
them, such as antacids for
buffering action. Everyone,
including professional people,
is so used to calling it aspirin
that you never hear.doctors
say take two aeetylsalicylic
acid tablets and call me in the
morning. And if they did, the
patients would probably say,
"What7’’
In any case, don’t worry
about the medicine your phar-
macist gave you It’s the same
thing you’ve been taking all
along.
