SUMMER HEALTH TIPS<br />
Keeping healthy<br />
when getting high<br />
By Frank Chappell, American Medical Association<br />
Planning a trip to the<br />
mountains to get away from<br />
the heat for a week or so? So<br />
are several million other<br />
American families at this<br />
time of year.<br />
The American Medical Association<br />
cautions that if<br />
you're headed for some really<br />
high mountains -- above 7,000<br />
feet - it would be wise to<br />
make the change gradually if<br />
you wish -to-avoicLhigh altitude<br />
sickness. Anyone who<br />
has made a trip to Mexico<br />
City can tell you of his<br />
troubles in this respect.<br />
Try, if you can, to make the<br />
ascent over a span of days so<br />
that your body can adjust to<br />
the oxygen-poor thin air at<br />
higher elevations.<br />
Symptoms of high altitude<br />
sickness are drowsiness;<br />
headache; blueness of the<br />
Credit Union<br />
being started<br />
An organizational meeting<br />
of the Tuscola Community<br />
Credit Union will be held Aug.<br />
8 at 7:30 p.m. at the Dom<br />
Polski Hall, Caro.<br />
For the last year members<br />
of the community have been<br />
coordinating their efforts to<br />
insure that a community<br />
credit union is implemented.<br />
It is extremely important at<br />
this time that interested persons<br />
attend this meeting to<br />
insure that the credit union<br />
receives its charter.<br />
The credit union will serve<br />
persons residing or working<br />
in the following townships:<br />
Akron, Aimer, Columbia,<br />
Dayton, Fairgrove, Gilford,<br />
Indianfields, Juniata, Koylton,<br />
Wisner, portions of Wells<br />
and the city of Kingston.<br />
More information can be<br />
obtained from Barbara<br />

Members should bring their<br />
own table service and a dish<br />
to pass.<br />
The picnic will be the last<br />
time to sign up for events at<br />

THE COST<br />
Half of getting what we<br />
want today is knowing what<br />
we have to give up to get it.<br />

nails, lips, nose and ears; a<br />
feeling of warmth and flushing<br />
of the face soon after<br />
arrival; troubled sleep; irritability,<br />
and shortness of<br />
breath.<br />
If you must make the trip<br />
quickly by plane, before the<br />
trip get a good night's rest<br />
and avoid alcoholic beverages<br />
and heavy smoking. A<br />
good breakfast an hour or so<br />
before departure.is all right,,<br />
but no food should be taken<br />
during the rest of the climb.<br />
Reduce physical activity during<br />
the trip. Sit quietly as<br />
much as possible. After arrival<br />
in the high altitude area,<br />
go to bed for a few hours and<br />
eat very lightly.<br />
Indulge in only light physical<br />
activity during the first 24<br />
hours. Walk, don't run, if you<br />
have to climb steps to a hotel<br />
or lodge.<br />
Patients with certain heart<br />
and respiratory conditions<br />
may encounter more serious<br />
discomfort by abrupt changes<br />
to high altitudes. However,<br />
physicians have noted that<br />
most patients with cardiac or<br />
pulmonary disease who can<br />
move around and engage in<br />
moderate activity at sea level<br />
most often can tolerate altitudes<br />
of 7,000 to 8,000 feet<br />
without serious effects.<br />
If you have doubts as to<br />
whether you or someone in<br />
your family may suffer from<br />
a trip to the high mountains,<br />
consult your physician in<br />
advance.<br />
Sales up<br />
at General<br />
Cable<br />
General Cable Corporation<br />
(NYSE symbol GK) reported<br />
today that sales for the sec :<br />
ond quarter of <strong>1977</strong> were $163,-<br />
134,000, up from $86,332,000<br />
for the second quarter of last<br />
year, an increase of 89 per<br />
cent.<br />
Net earnings for the quarter<br />
were $6,550,000 or $.45 per<br />
share, an increase of 55 per<br />
cent from the $4,213,000 or<br />
$.29 per share reported for the<br />
same period a year ago.<br />
Sales for the first half were<br />
$310,013,000 or 92 per cent<br />
above the level of $161,552,000<br />
reported in the first half of<br />
last year. Net income for the<br />
first six months of <strong>1977</strong> was<br />
$12,058,000 or $.84 per share, a<br />
gain of 40 per cent over the<br />
$8,592,000 or $.60 per share for<br />
the same period last year.<br />
According to Robert P.<br />
Jensen, president and chief<br />
executive officer, "The increase<br />
in sales and earnings<br />
over 1976 is largely attributable<br />
to the acquisition of<br />
Sprague Electric Company of<br />
which General Cable now<br />
owns approximately 96 per<br />
cent of the outstanding shares<br />
of common stock. The contribution<br />
of Sprague, after carrying<br />
costs, to General<br />
Cable's earnings was approximately<br />
$.30 per share in the<br />
first half of <strong>1977</strong>.<br />
"There was no LIFO inventory<br />
gain in the first half of<br />
<strong>1977</strong>, in contrast to the first<br />
half of 1976, when reduction in<br />
LIFO inventory levels resulted<br />
in an increase in net<br />
earnings of approximately<br />
$600,000. In compliance with<br />
Statement of Accounting<br />
Standards No. 8 requiring<br />
that we report foreign currency<br />
exchange gains and<br />
losses as incurred, we experienced<br />
a negative impact on<br />
net earnings, principally in<br />
wire and cable operations, of<br />
approximately $1,300,000 in<br />
the first half of <strong>1977</strong>, as compared<br />
to a net gain of approximately<br />
$400,000 in the first<br />
half of 1976."<br />
