Although Li 3 million

have high blood pressure .
surprihintfly few really know
much about it In fact, half

don't know it
Actually, blood pressure
is ihr force exerted l
blood on the walls of ur
arteries J I s highest when
the heart contracts, called
the systolic phae, and low
est when it relaxes- the
diastolic phase When your
pressure is measured, it's
read as a fraction with the
systolic over Ihr diaslol ic
If your pressu re is normal .
it wiM probably be between
1 20 HO and 1 4090
When blood pressure gets
loo high, the heart has lo
pump harder to circulate
the blood adequately and
that ran put a strain on it
Though high blood pres
sure can affect all races and
ages, most people who have
it begin to develop it during
their thirties It i more com

fective with his passing and
we really took it to them in the
second half."
Mars Hill, now 5-1, trailed
on two occasions, at 7-0 in the'
first period and 14-7 until the
third quarter, but each time
Dickerson connected with
former Enka High star Ronnie
Capps for a scoring toss.
After Alan Rhine's two-yard
run put the Tigers on top in the
first period, Dickerson con
nected with Capps on a 65
yard bomb. In the second
period, Georgetown quar
terback Ron Pitchback hit
Kim Graham with a 33-yarder
for a score that stuck until
Capps caught a five-yarder
from Dickerson in the third
period to tie the score at 14-14.
Capps' second touchdown
came after the Lion defense
came up with a fumble
recovery at the Georgetown
32. Five plays moved Mars
Hill to the Tigers' five, setting
up the score.
The Lions took the lead for
the first time when Jerome
Durham capped an 80-yard
drive with a 12-yard run. The
touchdown was set up by a 43
yard pass from Dickerson to
Capps.
Dickerson's score a few
minutes later, on a one-yard
run, padded the Lions' total
and Tom Anderson returned
an interception 23 yards for
the final Mars Hill score.
Georgetown scored in the
closing minutes when Rhine
plunged one yard.
Dickerson has one of his
best days in the passing
department, completing 16 of
24 attempts for 265 yards. Nine
of his tosses went to Capps for
162 yards.
"This was a big win over a
good team," Gibson surmised.
"The next two games will be
the toughest of our lives."
The winning Bears ran 68
times for 837 yards and added
77 passing in bringing their
record to 3-1-1 and handing
Davidson its third straight
loss.

Researchers are develop
ing a catalytic process for
converting methanol a
form of alcohol into high
octane gasoline. Methanol
can be made from the
world's abundant supplies
of coal, using well-known
technology.
A cost-sharing contract
for designing a pilot plant
to convert methanol into
gasoline has been signed
by the Federal Office of
Coal Research, which is
now part of the new Energy
Research and Development
Administration, and Mobil
Oil Corporation,
Dr. Dayton H. Clewell,
president of Mobil Research
and Development Corpora
tion, said:
"We know the process
works in the laboratory.
We've had a bench -scale pilot
plant operating for some
time. But it would be several
years before we could
evaluate its performance in
a commercial -scale demon
stration unit, and some
years after that before the
process could supply a siz
able percentage of the na
tion's gasoline demand, even
if it is economical to do so."
Mobil 's new process would

of processes in which coal is
first gasified and then con
verted into methanol.
"It's a remarkable proc

concept of taking a simple
molecule like methanol and
.-onverting it into the more
complex molecules in gaso
line in a single reactor is a
big step forward.

fuel through other processes,
but it has always been a low
octane fuel, along with a lot
of bothersome side products,
which it is necessary to re
fine out.
"The process we are
working on produces high
octane gasoline directly,
with hardly any impurities."
No decision has been
made on where the pilot
plant might be built, nor
whether it will be a joint in

Dr. Clewell said that if a

pilot plant is huilt and
proves successful, a decision
to build a commercial size
demonstration plant could
be made by 1978,
"A critical factor will be
the economic outlook at the
time that decision is made,"
I)r Clewell said "We doubt
that gasoline from coal
could compete with gasoline
made from crude oil even
at today's prices. But by
1978, the outlook for the
early 1980s, when the first
commercial plant could be
operating, mav be different "

INSURANCE AND YOU
by M.J. Wanamaktr, president
National Association of
Insurance Agents, Inc.
Inflation-conscious con
sumers are concerned about
how to get the greatest value
for the dollar. They are learn
ing that low price does not
mean a bargain.
Insurance consumers are
equally concerned that the
f"""l,,"T policies they

ments become unnecessarily
complicated. It pays to deal
with an agent who can shop
for and make sure the policy,
whether auto or home, gives
the coverage you need.
Deal with a businessman
who lives and works in the
community and knows local
conditions. His professional
reputation in the community
is his most important asset.
He knows the claims practices
of the company carrying your
insurance.
You should determine if
the person who sells you the
insurance is the one who
handles your claims. Find out
if the agent will provide
back up service such as an
swering questions and helping
with claims.
The independent insurance
aent in your community is
the one who meets all of
these requirements. He repre
sents several companies, often
eiht or more, and can tailor
your insurance by placing it
with the company which best
suits your specific needs.
Since he is a local business
man, he is available to help
in an emergency. He will
help with claims, advise on
new policies and counsel on
problems.

be convenient for the pur

There are things I see, from time to time - just
little things - that are rather reassuring. Things that
help me feel a little better about our society in
general. Things like:
Little girls all dressed up in frilly dresses and
white socks; little boy" ready for bed, wearing
flannel pajamas with "teet" attached; cats snoozing
contentedly in the sun; sail boats 'majestically
plying windswept waters; sea oats swaying in ocean
breezes; families in public restaurants that
inauspiciously offer thanks before the meal.
Rescue squads that are recognized in their
respective communities for the life-saving services
they provide; re-runs of Andy Griffith and sidekick
"Barney Fife;" older men nattily attired in
fashionable haberdashery, topped by a hard straw
hat perched at a jaunty angle; affluent people who
eschew high-priced autos in favor of more
economical modes of transportation; tree houses;
school children, walking single-file on a "tour" with
their teachers;
Band concerts in the park; youngsters feeding
(and chasing) pigeons in a city park; a cacophonous
parade of strutting ducks, arrogantly assertin their
inherent "right" to use of lakes and streams even in
the heart of a city; gentlemen who tip their hats to
ladies.
A barbershop quartet; a pooch, sitting near road's
edge, waiting patiently for the school bus to bring
home his master; pumpkins for sale alongside
country roads; tastefully decorated mail boxes;
window flower boxes.
Joyous (though tearful) reunions at airports; little
ones eating ice cream cones; smart-stepping
military men, parading with the colors flying ... I
suppose I might go on and on.
These are things I like to see, from time to time -just
little things - that are rather reassuring.

measured in terms of monetary worth."
