CLARK, M D Good nutrition is Nke mo t her hood and apple pie - every Mpltditl!ti But like other things the! we know to be good, we dont necessarily prac tice it. We know that a woman's nutritional status before, dur ing and after pregnancy con tributes to the welmekig of both herself and her infant. It follows that what she eats before she conceives and while she is preg nant is of vital importance to the health of future generations. One age group, teenagers is notorious for their disregard of good nutrition practices and for their tendency to exist on fries, chips, hamburgers, pizza and soft drinks. Teenagers have one-sixth of all babies. Preg nancy for the youngest in this age group is already fnore risky than for older women. It be comes even more so when in adequate diet is added to the risks already present. If good nutritional habits have not been practiced before pregnancy, it si important that they be begun as soon as preg nancy is known. How are diet deficiencies in need of correc tion revealed? One common technique is to analyze the complete diet history for a per iod of 24 to 48 hours. This will usually be representative of the person's normal diet. Without listing specific diet advice, the Committee on Nu trition of The American Col lege of Obstetricians and Gyne cologists states several sound nutritional principles which ap ply generally to pregnant wo men. 1. diet providing adequate intake of protein, particularly from animal sources, should be insured. 2. A diet providing approxi mately 10 per cent more calo ries than required for the non pregnant state is advisable. S. Weight gam during preg nancy should not be excessive ly restricted, nor is this normal ly a time to attempt to reduce weight. Ttis average weight gam in normal pregnancy is W4 22 to 27 pounds. The theory that the gain should be no more than 16 to 20 pounds is no longer held. 4. Essential nutritional ele ments (such as sodium) should not be restricted during normal pregnancy. 5. Supplements of iron and ton-containing foods are indi cated. Other supplements such as vitamins or additional pro tein sources may be helpful where nutritional deficiencies are determined.. Nutritional advice should be continued after the child is born. In this early period, die tary restriction should not be advised for nay new mother, nor for the new mother who is nur sing her baby. Much of what we choose to eat is from habit. In many cases adequate nutrition is no more expensive than the nutrition-deficient diet we may be eating. Once proper nutri tion habits are established they should become the life-long nutrition pattern. Pregnant, or non-pregnaat, a good diet yields health benefits throughout life. MORE CIGARETTES U. S. manufacturers will turn out roughly 593 billion cigarettes during this fiscal year, and most of them will be made in North Carolina. Persons 18 and older are expected to smoke about 3 percent more cigarettes in 1972 than in 1971. Another increase may be on the way in 1973, due largely to a slowdown in retail price increases, more consumer income and the fact that more people are of smoking age.

Kssisa Br awWPB 1 avfl Blj A two-year-old is happier and looks more natural curled up in a chair or on the floor instead of sitting or standing stiffly for the camera. Remember, the more relaxed the child, the better the pictures you will have. At the age of three months, the baby has begun to change as its abilities increase. Shoot ing from the baby's level is always a good idea. Framing your shot through the bars of the crib will give a sense of scale to the picture. As a consequence, many priceless moments are lost. The charming tousle-haired three-year-old merges into the large eyed first grader and into the sedate 12-year-old almost be fore you're aware of it. The solution is both to plan your picture-taking and to keep your camera handy for the unexpected. Planning does not mean, necsssarily, setting a rigid inflexible schedule. Rather it means keeping an album or some sort of collection to which pictures are added at more-or-less regular intervals, includ ing the big days' (birthdays and Christmas) as well as the little ones. The unexpected needs no explanation to a mother. It's when your little girl decides to experiment with your make-up or your small son first en counters an open can of paint. Neither the planned nor the unplanned pictures require complicated photography. A simple aim and shoot; Kodak X-15 Instamatic camera with a supply of handy film car tridges and magicubes are all you need. - The basic instructions for good pictures are equally sim ple. Hold your camera steady. Shoot from the child's level. Stay as close as your camera allows (four feet with the Kodak X-15 camera) so that the subject fills the viewfinder. fry to shoot when the child is relaxed and happy and in terested rather than stiffly posed. And most important of all keep shooting. The child hood mm are recording is a one-time thing. A newborn is so incredibly tiny that you'll want some album pictures to help you re member. One of the best ways to illustrate the baby's siie is with a mother and child shot. Family Makes Jewelry To Pay College Costs By JANICE CHRISTENSEN Expenses for a daugh ter's college graduation and wedding could put a dent in many a family budget. So one ingenuous Richmond County family, who is facing such expenses this summer, decided to supplement regular income by mak ing and selling crocheted Jewelry. Father and son string thousands of pearls and beads on crochet thread so mother can fashion necklaces, ropes, rings and novelty sandals. The daughter helps sell and deliver the finished items. This business venture came about quite by accident, according to Mrs. Martha Adams, home economics exten sion agent. When people learned the homemaker had made the attractive Jewelry she was wearing, they swamped her with orders for similar items. It was then that other members of 'the family volunteered their net Several businesse catering to tourists asked the homemaker they could stock her Jewelry on consignment, the agent adds. So the family is now busy making jewelry for this market. DOUBLE WORK Twins can be a double blessing for a family, but they can also mean twice as much work for the mother, unless she fig ures out some energy saving shortcuts. Recently, Bernadette Watts, Durham County assistant home econom ics extension agent, heard two women who have twins comparing notes on ways to save energy. Mrs. Clyde Williams said she always stores freshly laundered clothes in pairs or doubles. "That way." she added.

V CtBB TENSION I Mrs. Robert Debnam, a senior citizen from Norlina, uses her baking skills to help relieve tension. She's so busy baking cakes, pies and rolls for others that she doesn't have time to get "all tensed up," notes Mrs. Bertha Forte, home economics extension agent, Warren County. Mrs. Debnam added, "I told my husband that I had no idea when I started baking for others that I would have such a successful business. I feel much better with something to occupy my time and mind." DECORATING '73 The decorating look for 1973 is comfort. Al though the graphics of 1972 are still around, they tend to be less bold and more glamorous. Sharp angles have given way to soft curves and colors harmonize, notes Wilma Scott, North Caro lina State University, extension house furnish ings specialist. , Recliners that don't look that way are big news in house furnish ings this year. Many of the versatile recliners have low-backed styling, says Mrs. Edith Me Glamery, North Carolina State University, exten sion house furnishings specialist. The headrest pops up when needed.

The column answers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers. Q) Is it true that this year's Federal income tax return asks questions related to Federal revenue sharing? A) Yw. Your 1972 Form 1040 and short Form 1040A ask two questions related to the sharing of Federal money with state and local govern ments. One question asks the location of your . principal place of residence (state, county, locality & township) ; the second question asks for the number of your depend ents who are filing a return of their own or who did not live at your principal place of resi dence at the end of 1972. You must supply the cor rect information in your an swers to these questions to ensure that your state, county and local community receive their rightful share of revenue sharing funds. Q) Docs every taxpayer have to give Ma state, county, local ity and township in answering the revenue sharing qneation on place of reaidence? A) All of this information may not be required. Only cer tain states have townships and these are specified in your tax form instructions. If your Once again, these listed in your in- a county, areas are structions. Unless you lived outside the U.S. on Dec. 31, 1972, .son must enter the abbreviation for your state in the column provided. In addition, if you lived inside an incorporated city, town, or village, print the name of the municipality in the "locality" column. If you did not live inside the boun daries of such a location, check the box in this column. Q) Can you give me some tips on how to guard against dishonest tax preparers? A) The IRS offers the fol lowing advice to taxpayers seeking assistance from com mercial income tax return pre parers: never sign a blank re turn; do not sign a tax return prepared in pencil because it can be changed later ; do not allow your refund check to be mailed to the preparer; avoid the advisor, who "guarantees" refunds, wants a percentage of the refund, or supposedly knows all the angles; and avoid the preparer who ad vises a taxpayer to overstate deductions, claim fictitious de pendents or omit income. In addition, taxpayers state is not listed there, you should insist that the tax p re can leave this column of your parer sign the return he pre tax return blank. Secondly, pares and enter his tax iden there are a few places, such as tifying number. Finally, be Baltimore City, Md. and St. sure to keep a copy of your Louis, Mo., that are not within return. 4 i Q What are the rule fox deducting finance charges on department store revolving viuti nvvvvuiiiD A) You may deduct the "fi nance charge" levied by retail stores on your revolving charge, accounts if the charges Ere based ,0 your unpaid bai lees ami computed monthly. J so, in the case of bank credit ard plans, you can deduct the ' finance charge if no Dart of 1 this amount is for service charges, loan fees, credit in vestigation fees, etc. However, if you buy items on the installment plan and the carrying charges are sep arately stated, but the interest charge cannot be ascertained, deduct the lower of (1) 6 per cent of your average unpaid monthly balance or (2) the actual charge for the year. For more details, see IRS Pub lication 545, "Income Tax De duction for Interest Expense." Use the order blank on the back of your tax forms pack age to obtain a free copy. Q I had no income tax lia bility for 1972, but I'm filing a return to recover income tax withheld from my pay. Can I still designate $1 of the tax withheld towards the Presiden tial Election Campaign Fund? A) No. You can only make the $ I check-off if you had an income tax liability. This does not mean that because you are getting a refund, you can't use the $1 check-off, but it does mean that you must be able to show tax on line 20 of your Form 1040 or line 21 of your short Form 1040A to use the check-off. il I Ll'ihA lltlf t 1 II 1 j 'j'' ' 'JffifiSStJ Illilli -r-.

Russell stopped by to rap with Stax's Bar-Kays Bar-Kays Set For West Coast Appearances Car Talk How To Cut Costs And Pollution Despite growing public con corn about air pollution, many drivers continue to ig nore the simple stops they can take to minimise pollu tion created by their person al cars. Motorists receive a double bonus when common sense maintenance procedures are observed, say engineers for Wix Corporation, one of the nation's leading suppliers of auto filters Proper mainte nance results in lower oper atinf Mft and reduced auto pollution ' Emission control systems are now mandatory on all U.S.-built can. but they are a mixed blessing for drivers who don't maintain them properly. When the crank case emission control system burns residual vapors, it cre ates a byproduct that can dilute engine oil, form sludge and eventually shorten the life of key components or even the engine itself. Buildup Boosts Costs The crankcase buildup also reduces engine efficiency and raises operating costs by in creasing the consumption of gas and oil. And, of course, the emission control system loses a good deal of its pollution-abatement capability. Faulty systems are rela tively easy to spot and gen erally simple to correct. Per haps the most common symp- toms are rough engine idling cape ot blue smoke from the exhaust system. If , emKtmg you detect, or suspect, either condition, ask your mechanic to check your emission con trol system. For do-it-yourselfers, the system check is relatively simple, say the engineers. J Check the oil or breather. If it is smoke, the problem probably is a clogged PCV valve that should be cleaned or changed. An oily air filter can indicate that a PCV valve ia stuck open or that a crank case breather is not working. When this symptom occurs, the valve and breather should be checked and the filter should be changed. If the filter element isn't oily but appears dirty, tap it lightly with a wrench. If this causes a spill-out of dust and other particles, it's another sign that the filter needs changing. Most filters, as well as PCV valves, are good for 12,000 miles or one year of service. 4 In the event of extensive stop-and-go, short-trip driv ing, the filter and valve should be checked more fre quently. For the pollution-conscious, or cost-conscious, driver, fre quent checks of emission con trol systems should become a way of life. The time in volved is slight, the cost ia minimal even if some com ponents need replacement, and the contribution to clean er air and smoother car op eration can be significant Your Guide To Home Safety Most accidents happen at home . . . and most are pre ventable.

Known for their spectacular costuming (the scuttlebutt a round Memphis is that they taught Isaac Hayes how to dress) and exuberant showman ship, the seven young (19 to 23) musicians brought the Coli seum crowd of 100,000 to its feet at WattStax. For the Bar Kays, that was just the begin ning, as audiences at Winter land and the Whiskey found out this month. MEMPHIS - Emerging as a Stax super group, the Bar-Kays have been set for two major West Coast appearances hot on the heels of their resounding success at the WattStax Festi val in Los Angeles, and coin ciding with the January release of their new album "Do You See What I See," The group heads to San Francisco where they will ap pear in concert at Bill Graham's Winterland on two consecutive nights January 27th and 28th with Curtis Mayfield and To wer of tower. The Bar-Kays consisting of six young and spectacular costumed musi cians and one equally flam boyant vocalist, will then join other Stax artists hi Los An geles for the premiere of. the WattStax film on February 4th. Following the concerts at Winterland, the Bar-Kays return to Los Angeles where, they will headline the Whiskey on Sunset Strip Januray 81st through February 4th These appearances mark the first major personal appearance dates by the group with current membership. During the past few years, the Bar-Kays have earned numerous musical back up credits serving as the resi dent Stax rhythm section. Their studio credits include pro viding fhythm concepts for such artists as Albert King and Isaac Hayes', albums "Hot But tered Soul," "Movement" "To i Continued" and "Shaft." From their involvement with the "Shaft" score came the idea for the Bar-Kays own sin gle, "Son of Shaft," which fared well in air play and sales. The original Bar-Kays were formed in 1966 but aU, ex cept two Of the original mem bers were kiled in the plane crash which also killed Otis Redding with whom the group was touring.

After the regrouping, the Bar-Kays ad mittedly veered away from the successful Soul sounds that they had been identified with before the plane crash. James Alexander, who playes bass guitar and an occasional tuba with the group, says ot tne transition period: "It was a phase we had to go through. But, when you hear our new al bum ("Do You See What I See"), I think you'll agree that we're right back in the Otis Redding bag -- we're back to our roots, you might say, and happy to be back."
