Research Shows Fat Children
Grow Into Fat, Dieting Adults
Dieting-addicted adults are try
ing to solve problems that began
when they were children, accord
ing to research by a Texas A&M
professor.
Dr. Charles B. Corbin of A&M’s
Health and Physical Education
Department measured fat on 1,200
College Station grade school child
ren for some condemning figures
and grim conclusions. _
His studies under an A&M Re
search Council grant reveals six
to 17 per cent of the school sys
tem’s six through 12 - year - old
boys (first to seventh grades) are
obese. Nine to 26 per cent of the
girls in the same brackets are too
fat.
It takes into account that cer
tain amounts of subcutaneous fat
for specified ages are considered
acceptable.
CORBIN’S measurements were
made with calipers rather than
scales. A fold of skin on the tri
cep and back was measured on
each child. Thickness indicates the
amount of fat. Statistical charts
show whether each child has more,
less or average amounts. Estab
lished criteria specify whether the
student is fit, fat or obese.
British and Canadian surveys
show their children carry less fat.
“It parallels physical fitness
comparisons,” Corbin remarked.
“Our kids are less fit and more
fat.”
His figures reveal Consolidated
school children begin showing ex
tra fat between ages seven and
eight. The age 12 group has less
fat than 11-year-old sixth graders.
“THERE are several possible
explanations,” the professor com
mented. “These kids are getting-
fat before they enter school phy
sical education programs. At 12,
College Station elementary grad
ers get their first PE.”
“Our kids are getting fatter as
they grow older. Research shows
fat people tend to get fatter. The
majority of these kids aren’t go
ing to trim down in their teenage
years. It’s more proof against
the ‘baby-fat’ theory which says,
‘Don’t worry, he’ll grow out of
it.’ ”
CORBIN SAID research results
are “probably representative of
the country as a whole.”
“All of the Consolidated school
system’s first through sixth grad
ers were measured. They repre
sented rural, urban, high, low and
middle income families.”
Findings may be an indictment
of eating habits or diet, Corbin
surmised, “or it may mean par
ents should shut off the TV and
see that their kids get more physi
cal education earlier.”

CAMPUS
CLEANERS
If you don't agree that
business destroys individuality,
maybe it's because you're an
individual.
There’s certain campus talk that claims
individuality is dead in the business world.
That big business is a big brother destroy
ing initiative.
But freedom of thought and action, when
backed with reason and conviction’s cour
age, will keep and nurture individuality
whatever the scene: in the arts, the sciences,
and in business.
Scoffers to the contrary, the red corpus
cles of individuality pay off. No mistake.
Encouraging individuality rather than
suppressing it is policy in a business like
Western Electric—where we make and pro
vide things Bell telephone companies need.
Because communications are changing fast,
these needs are great and diverse.
Being involved with a system that helps
keep people in touch, lets doctors send car
diograms across country for quick analysis,
helps transmit news instantly, is demand
ing. Demanding of individuals.
If your ambition is strong and your abili
ties commensurate, you’ll never be truly
happy with the status quo. You’ll seek
ways to change it and—wonderful feeling!—
some of them will work.
Could be at Western Electric.
