First Doobie nomination
takes top honors during
22nd Annual Grammy Show
By YARDENA ARAR
Associated Press Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The
Doobie Brothers, who 10 years
ago were playing in bars to the
motorcycle crowd, were
presented record of the year
and song of the'year honors at
the 22nd annual Grammy
ceremonies —. the first time
they had been nominated.
The six members of the
rock’n'roll band took home
victrola-shaped trophies
Wednesday for record of the
year, “What a Fool Believes,”
and best pop vocal per-
formance by a group, “Minute
By Minute.”
Two Grammys for “What a
Fool Believes” — in the song of
the year and best arrangement
accompanying vocalists
categories — were personal
triumphs for Michael Mc-
Donald, who joined the group
five years ago and was given
much credit for the band's six
nominations this year.
“It’s a form of acceptance we
never got before, and we enjoy
it," said McDonald, who shared
the song of the year award with
co-writer Kenny Loggins.'
The Doobie Brothers won
more , a wards than any other
artists honored in 58 categories
and were the only major first-
time winners. : v
Repeat winners included
Billy Joel, whose “52nd Street”
won album of the year and best
male pop performance. Earth,
Wind & Fire raised its career
At Wit s End
By Erma Bombeck
I don’t expect anyone to get too choked up about
this, but we are in the middle of National letter
Writing Week.
I don’t know about you, but I’m going to observe it
by sitting right down and calling my friends whom I
haven’t written in three years.
My reluctance to write letters is based on several
reasons: (a) I never have anything to report that is
worth 15 cents; (b) when I read them over, I sound
like a shut-in and get very depressed; (c) I never
remember to mail them and find myself going
through them months later, changing “The baby is
walking” to “The baby is married” or “I am on a diet
and must lose 15 pounds” to “I am on a diet and must
lose 15 pounds over each knee.”
I am intrigued by letter writers . . . what prompts
them to write, how much they write, and their system
for replying.
My mother runs her correspondence like a railroad.
Upon receipt of a letter, she will sit right down that
evening and fire one back (couldn't you scream?)
being careful to note on what day it was sent.
You will hear not one word from her until you write
back. You never have to worry about your letters
crossing one another en route.
Another friend of mine only writes when something
happens. I haven’t heard from her in three years and
can only assume she’s serving time somewhere.
There’s another kind of correspondent whom I only
hear from when they are in another country. 01>
viously, I’m on the B list and receive communications
only when they’re doing something they’re proud of.
Most are merely acquaintances and I am astounded
when they share intimate details of their
irregularities.
The intriguing thing about the postal system is-its
optimism toward its future. They not only1assume
they’ll have one, but they’re already figuring out how
it will work. The letter of the future will be sent
electronically via satellite.
They are studying a system that will transmit a
message to a post office where it is transformed into
digital data at the rate of 10 pages per second, then
beamed to a domestic satellite for instant tran-
smission to a receiving post office. There it would be
reconverted into printed form, automatically folded,
and inserted into an addressed envelope at the speed
of four to six letters per second.
I’m not sure, but I think they’ve just invented the
telegram.

the Love Has Gone,” and in-

Herb Alpert provided the two
major comeback stories of the
night. Alpert, whose "Rise”

tears away after winning the
best female pop performance

Again.” Earlier, her “Deja
Vu” had been named best
female rhythm and blues
performance.
Bob Dylan, one of pop
music's best known born-again
Christians, won the best male
rock performance award for
“Gotta Serve Somebody.”
Rickie Lee Jones, who wore
tight leather pants, gave thanks
to a more worldly bunch after
being named best new artist.

in fi' ' categories, won only
best emale rock peformance
for “Lot Stuff.” The rock group
vocal award went to the Eagles
for “Heartache Tonight;”

Enough;” Gloria Gaynor’s “I
Will Survive” was named best
disco recording; and Emmylou
Harris won female country

Kentucky Girl,” written by a
Missouri school janitor.

Academy of Recording Arts
and Sciences ceremonies, won

ring, no fling
By ROBERT WALLACE, F.d.D.
Copley News Service
Dr. Wallace: I am 16 and have a handsome, sweet, kind
and almost perfect boyfriend. He is 2# and is a college
sophomore and is planning to be a physician. When I
graduate from high school, be wants me to move In with
him.
1 told him 1 would if he marries me, but he said he doesn't
want to be married while he is in college. I love him so
much and I don't want to lose him. Please help. — Sally,
Moundsville. W.Va.
Sally: What your boyfriend is telling you Is that he wants
the benefits but does not want the responsibility or the
commitment. — ,
What you should tell your boyfriend is no ring, no fling' •
Besides, why worry about what might happen two years
in the future?
Dr. Wallace: I’m 15 and have been baby-sitting for this
lady for about a year. Besides baby-sitting, I’ve got to feed
the dog and many times she asks me to make the beds.
For this, I get paid 75 Cents an hour. When another little
boy comes over, I'm paid 51 an hour.
When I asked her for a 25-cent an hour raise, she told me
that she couldn’t afford it.
Do you think that I should quit? — Lisa, Tacoma. Wash.
Lisa: You, as the" employee, should set your expected
salary. If the employer doesn't meet your demand, then the
employer doesn’t get your services.
Dr. Wallace: I'm a 13-year-old girl who met Jim at
church. I thought he really liked me so I invited him to my
birthday party.
Jim came and brought me a present. But he gave the
present to my brother and left early to go to a school
carnival. It really bothered me that he didn't even say “hi.”
How can I find out if he likes me? — Michelle, Sheffield,
Ala.
Michelle: Mail him a thank-you note for the gift and tell
him you would also like to thank him personally. Ask him to
call you and make sure he has your phone number
If he doesn’t call, you know where you stand. If he does,
it’s up to you to make the most of it.

Questions about cancer
DEAR DR LAMB It is my
understanding that every can-
cer more or less follows a cer-
tain pattern For example,
breast cancer many times
moves to bone cancer Could
you please tell me what is the
cause of cancer of the colon ’
,, - DEAlklifclALm. VYe
*Ty 'don’t know all the factors
that cause cancers Certain
conditions are associated with
an increased likelihood of
having cancer Some environ-
mental factors increase the
likelihood a person will have
cancer if he’s susceptible to it
to begin with Viruses have
been involved in producing
„some animal cancers but we
don't have positive proof of
this in humans. We know that
certain chemicals and even
the radiation from sunshine is
lie on this problem and that's
one of the reasons these are
the second most common
cause of cancer deaths
There is some reason to
believe that .individuals who
should also include an ade-
quate amount of leafy vegeta-
bles and be moderately
restricted in fat content.

It follows that

that I can’t
answer your question about
what causes cancer of the
colon Cancers of the colon
and rectum are the second
most common cause for can-
cer deaths in the United
States. Not nearly enough has
Seen done to educate the pub-
eat a very bland diet that
doesn't contain adequate bulk
in it may be1 more susceptible
to cancer of .the colon. There's
also some evidence that eat-
ing a high fat diet may con-
tribute to cancer of the colon.
Also there are some new stud-
ies that suggest that ehloro-
phyl as found in leafy green
vegetables may help to pro-
tect against cancer of the
colon
There is enough circum-
stantial evidence for the pro
dent person to eat a diet that
contains an adequate amount
of bulk, particularly cereal
fiber as in bran the dipt

Fact Of Life It will update

current knowledge about
cancer. Other readers who

The Health Letter I'm send-
ing you will also explain can-
cer spread. A cancer literally
drops off cells that are circu-
lated to the rest of'the body.
Cancer of the colon, for exam-
ple,, may drop off cells that
are carried and lodged in the
liver. Breast cancer may have
cancer cells that are shed into
the lymphatic circulation and
carried to lymph nodes under
the arm Circulation of blood
and lymph explains most of
the ways that cancer spreads
throughout the body
A number of our major can
cers can be prevented, such as
cancer of the lungs associated
with cigarette smoking. It’s
possible that a number of the
cancers of the colon that you
asked about can be prevented
On the bright side, a lot of
cancers that are detected ear-
ly enough can be cured.
