Every once in awhile I get a craving to see a mature
woman delivering the six o'clock news.
I know I’m crazy, but sometimes I think if I see
another silken-haired nymph with capped teeth and
wet lips wrapped around the failing economy, I’ll
scream.
At times when I like to have died from sitting there
figuring out how many ways there are to tie a scarf,
I’d turn on Walter Cronkite and try to imagine him
with hair parted in the middle and rolled into a bun at
the nape of his neck.
One of the things people liked about Walter was that
he not only deliver^ the news with wisdom and ex-
perience...he gave you the impression he was going to
do something about it.
An older woman could do that.
Experience could be an asset to a mature woman
newscaster. Take the other night. I saw a young
anchorperson...no more than l^years-old...shove a
microphone into the face of a 23-year-old woman who
had just given birth to five children, had four others at
home, a husband out of work and sne asked, “How do
you feel?’’ -
The print media, somehow, do not indulge them-
selves in that kind of discrimination. We have scores
of mature woman writers who wear glasses, suffer
from paleness, sweat, frown, have poor posture,

small eyes, buy boring coats, and don t care diddly
about the weather.
I used to know a lot of women who were involved in
broadcasting 10 or 12 years ago. One of them had hips.
When the School for the Terminally Serious began to
turn out women graduates, they were reassigned to
small booths in radio stations and eventually phased
out. Most of them are underground now, leading beige
lives and watching their old tapes.
Granted television personalities should look at-
tractive, but a word to tne eye-liner and lip gloss set—
inside everybody is a mature woman fighting to get
out.
I’ll never forget the late Totie Fields who appeared
one day on the Mike Douglas show. When a sex
symbol joined them the audience nearly went crazy.
Totie walked out into the audience and shouted,
“What are you applauding HER for? Everyone of you
in the audience looks just like me! ”

DEAR DR. LAMB - Would
you please let us know the
benefits of potassium to the
system and what harm might
be caused by not getting
enough of it? I have friends
taking diuretics prescribed by
different doctors; some also
prescribe potassium supple-
ments and others do not. Some
recommend orange Juice and
bananas and again others do
not. I take Lasix for water
retention since I had a heart
attack, but I don't have high
blood pressure. My doctor
prescribed potassium supple-
ments. A friend with high
blood pressure takes Aldomet
and Dyazide. But her doctor
has never mentioned potassi-
um.
DEAR READER - First,
people take diuretics for any
number of conditions that
lead to water retention You
may not have as strong a
heart as before your attack
and that may cause you to
accumulate sodium and
water So you take Lasix
Now. Lasix can also wash out
potassium from your body so
your doctor is replacing the
amount you lose
Your friend takes Aldomet
because of high blood pres-
sure. The Dyazide is a diuretic
but it acts on the kidneys in a
different way and does not
eliminate potassium People
who take Dyazide should not
try to add potassium to their
diet or take supplements
unless their doctor tells them
to do so. Otherwise, they may
build up a dangerously high
level of potassium. So it
depends on what diuretic you

Potassium is the main salt
inside your cells and sodium
the main salt outside vour
cells. If you do not have
enough potassium the funda- #
mental processes of the cells
are affected It can cause
heart irregularities, some of
which can be dangerous. Too
much potassium can be equal-
ly dangerous That is why I
don't recommend just taking
potassium or adding potassi-
um to your diet just because
you are taking a diuretic. Let
your doctor tell you if you
should or not for the diuretic
you are taking

Jail tries to meet
special diet plea
HOUSTON (AP) - Sheriffs
Capt Chester Hilborn says he is
trying to comply with requests
made by Brent Evan Bierman,
38, a county jail inmate.
Bierman filed a district court
motion asking that his jail food
be prepared under strict Jewish
dietary standards.
Judge Allen Stilley took no
action after being assured jail
officials would try to comply.
Hilborn said Bierman now is
eating salads and cheese.
“But I will be checking with
our jail dietician to see what
else we can do,” he said.
But Hilborn waa not certain
what can be done about Bier-
man’s demands calling for
separate refrigerators for dairy
and meat products and that
meat be blessed by a rabbi and
prepared by a Jewish cook.
“We’re not running a hotel,”
Hilborn said.
“Maybe if we give him
special food, the Catholics will
want something, too. But I think
we will act fairly.”
Stilley is to hold a probation
revocation hearing for Bier-
man, who was convicted in 1960
on a theft charge.
Hilborn said Bierman's
demand for special food is the
first he knows of for Jewish
food.
