The bill would give the President most of the powers he requested to lower WASHINGTON — Fuel price increase could raise the cost of living in the United States $27 billion next year, said Herbert Stein, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers.

Goswick, M.D., University Health Center Q. Is taking “speed” (methamphetamine), to stay awake to study for finals, dangerous? What should one do to minimize after-effects? A. Most emphatically, yes. Even discounting the potential habituation associated with long-term medication, taking amphetemines (a large group of drugs similar in action to methamphetemine) is dangerous. They are potent stimulants of the central nervous system and have many side-effects—insomnia in particular. It is very difficult to minimize the after-effects of amphetamines except with other drugs which have a depressing or sedating effect (barbituates, etc.). These medications can be equally, if not more, habit-forming and have their own side-effects. While I am on the subject of drugs, let me say that it is very unwise—at finals time or otherwise—to take medication other than that prescribed to the individual. Although drugs nowadays are fairly-well free of serious side-effects, they still exist and may be unpredictable. Never take anyone else’s medicine nor exceed recommended doses of your own. Q. Can a special diet make your hair more healthy or grow faster? A. I know of no special diet which can make hair “healthy” or stimulate growth. However, lack of adequate food intake, including vitamins and protein, can make for unhealthy and/or slow-growing hair. “Health” of hair these days is more apt to be related to care of the hair in the sense of cleanliness, tone of scalp and general health. Q. I know someone who eats only one meal a day to keep her weight down. What do you think of this approach? A. This practice is not too wise. Granted, it works; but so does any regimen in which food intake balances energy output. It would be much wiser to restrict food intake at all three meals and make breakfast and lunch larger than the evening meal. One meal a day, unless very carefully planned, could scarcely be expected to yield a balanced intake for the whole day.
