4-TKE CAROLINA TIMES SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1382 Cold Weather Is 5 r Not Only Enemy Of Your Hair . DALLAS, TX "It won't be , the , cold ' weather that damages yor hair the most this winter," according to a .leading skin care ' authority. "It will be the drop in the relative humidity that causes the real damage to nan Dr. Myra O. Barker, vice president of research ..and development for Mary Kay Cosmetics, Inc. says "It's so impor tant to condition your hair and restore it to its maximum possible good condition before the relative humidity begins to drop this winter. "When the relative humidity begins to drop, damaged hair can't maintain its moisture balance. It begins to get very brittle and will start to dry out, split and break," she says. Most people have already damaged their hair this past summer which has left it virtually defenseless against the winter. Damage from chlorine, salt water and especially the sun has tended to damage the protective outer layer of the hair shaft and dried out the hair. Hair has an ideal moisture balance that needs to be preserved in" order for the hair to be elastic and smooth. When this balance is lost, the hair gets into because it's the reflection trouble. "You need to think of your hair as if it was a , $100 silk blouse. You wouldn't throw a silk: blouse into the washing machine with your jeans and socks. You'd treat it your very carefully," says Dr. Barker. j Hair is primarily com posed of keratin, a highly complex protein substance. The only liv ing part of each hair shaft is the root which is under the scalp. The hair we see is actually old cells that have been pushed out from the scalp as new cells have been formed in the root. Hair grows an average ot nan an men per r.

"There are several things you need to do right now to prepare for winter. First, go to a hairdresser and have the ends cut blunt, removing as much of the split ends as possible," Dr. Barker suggests. Start using an intense conditioner once a week and, when smoothness returns to your hair, taper off to a couple of times a month during the winter. A conditioner smooths down the outer layer of the hair shaft, which resembles the scales of a fish.

That was the message being preached here by Ronald F. Hudler, direc tor of corporate of light off the cuticle scales that determines how shiny your hair is," she says. A conditioner also seals moisture in the in ner layer, the cortex, by making the cuticle scales lie down, which makes your hair less susceptible to damage through com-, bing and blow-drying. Mechanical and thermal damage actually breaks off the cuticle scales leaving the, protein fibers of the cortex exposed , and causing them to unraveland break. Once .you have rstored your hair to its best con dition, there are several ways to protect it from damage during the cold University's fast growing computer science pro gram and in business, engineeering and technology. Hudler said at GM, about 20 per cent of the product design is cur rently being ' done by computer. But he in dicated that this, percen tage is rapidly increas ing. "In the last three mon ths, we have ap propriated $52 million for computer graphics hardware," he said. "Another $35 million is appropriated for November, and $70 million , has been ap propriated for the first six months of next year. According, to Hudler, another sign of the grow ing interest in computer designing is the increas ing number of design consoles at General Motors. He said the con soles now , total 1,000, but by the end of the decade the company will have 5,000 consoles. "The industry for the first time is a $1 billion industry. By the end of the decade, it will be a $25 billion industry," said Hudler. He said in recent years there have been at least 50 new start up com panies selling hardware and software for com puter design.. "This is one of the fastest grow ing segments of the com puter business," added Hudler. "I can't think of another industry which will grow as fast." The. , representatives from, General - Motors visited classrooms and provided technical presentations for students. The team included Ms. Vivian Logan, recently promoted to the position of trade analyst; George Stewart, director of linguistic information services; and Haven Cockerham, personnel director for the Fisher Body Division. Cockerham is a graduate of A&T. A&T's computer science program was in itiated in August of 1980 with 24 students, accor ding to Dr. Wendell Jones, chairman of the Department of Mathematics and Com puter schiece. He said more than 300 students are now enrolled in the computer science program. Plan For Healthy, Happy Holidays body's use of energy that could help determine whether a tumor is malignant. It might also , be used to diagnose con ! ditions that could lead to later heart attacks or strokes. Radiologists have sought for decades a way of taking pictures of the body's interior without using ionizing radiation, such as X-rays. ' The NMR scanner wll do that, producing images similar to those from the computed tomography (CT) scanners. The NMR system at Duke will be the most, powerful in a university research facility, accor ding to Duke radiologists. With the system , researchers will compare the information obtained with NMR to the information gained through other diagonostic methods. The Duke NMR system will be installed in June 1983. Its heart will be a powerful magnet, id feet tall and eight feet thick, cooled by liquid helium and. liquid nitrogen. The donut shaped magnet weighs more than nine tons. It can produce a magnetic field 25,000 times as strong as that of the Earth. The unit will make im ages and gather body chemistry data by beam ing radio waves into the system's magnetic field. This will cause the atoms of various elements in the body to give off characteristic signals that can be recorded and vent the scanners, magnetic field from af- tecting eieciromc equip-; merit in the immediate area. Duke researchers us ing the device will con centrate on metabolic r studies, looking at how' disease changes the body's use of energy. Metabolic changes in the body often occur before ; any change in anatomy that could be picked up by using X-rays, Duke radiologists said. For instance, if the blood flow is cut off to a part of a person's heart, the metabolism in that area changes rapidly. If these metabolic changes persist, the person mayj suffer a heart attack. But if the blood supply can be restored promptly, the metabolism quickly . returns to normal. In studies of tumors, Duke radiologists will measure tumor metabolism to determine if they are malignant. Early studies in animals have shown that NMR can demonstrate the metabolic effects therapy on tumors.

Evans 544-7771 Ralph Hester 544-3020 Some readers will remember when the day after Thanksgiving was the unofficial signal for the start of "the Christmas season." Department stores unveiled their Christmas displays, - Christmas shopping got, underway, "radio stations started to include the traditional carols, and the first holi day party guest list was, drawn up. The traditional signals appear earlier with every year, and in many cities the stores are have been decorated since October, Christmas catalogues have been mailed, and hostesses are counting the china in preparation for holiday dinners. Holiday planning, shopping and partying, are usually fun, but they can also be physically and emotionally wear ing. Medical researchers have found that stress and tension and overin dulgence in drinking and eating can all contribute to gastro-ihtestinal pro blems. They tell us that gas, bloating and cramps frequently are the result, and that talking and smoking encourage air swallowing, another common contributor to gaseousness. However, you can still enjoy the holidays. Try planning your time and delegating details, whenever possible. Ac tually family and friends are likely to enjoy your parties more if they con tribute to them. Practice moderation in whatever you do. Don't encourage guests to overeat and don't feel you need to .freshen their drinks every time you see a neartempty glass. Keep "on hand remedies for temporary gastronomic indiscretions. There is a special tablet recom mended by physicians for gastro-intestinal gas called Phazyme-95 which contains simethicone and digestive enzymes. There are - also antacids for heartburn and indiges tion. Aspirin may prove to be vital first aid for headaches possibly brought on by a houseful of enthusiastic guests and their children. Ban dages for cuts and may i. be tuseful, bruises too. Next year when the signal for holiday plann ing is sounded hopefully your thoughts of this' year's festivities will be happy ones. Hopefully, too, Labor Day will not become the future deadline for ordering the Christmas tree. To maintain good looks and long life, wash sweaters frequently before soil becomes; embedded in the 'yarn. Follow label instructions when laundering.
