Ozick pointed out that formulas
ven to bottle-fed babies contain
dded lactose — milk sugar or corn
01 ugar, so the babies very early de-
elop a taste for sweets.
In infancy, humans not only have
taste receptors on the tongue but on
the lips and in the throat, a fact that
is significant in development oflater
tastes, the dentist noted.
“Babies who are bottle-fed, and
they perhaps represent the majority
of infants, are being fed a sweet-
tasting, high-carbohydrate diet
from birth, he said.
“These infants grow into toddlers
who may very well desire sweets
because of their previous feeding
experience, Ozick said.
Canned baby foods also contri
bute to further development of a
sweet tooth, he said, because even
foods that are naturally sweet have
added sugar.
“By the time a child reaches the
age of 3 or 4, a sugar-consuming
preference has been strongly in
grained in his eating habits,” he
said.
Producers blame price controls
Associated Press
HOUSTON — Independent
producers said Tuesday oil and
natural gas price controls should be
removed in that they are the prim
ary cause of the nation’s energy
shortages.
A national energy' policies state
ment adopted by the Independent
Petroleum Association of America
(IPAA) also said Congress should re
store the depletion allowance and
other tax incentives that were re
duced in 1969 and 1975.
Such tax actions, the indepen
dents said, have discouraged
domestic petroleum exploration
and development at a time every
possible drilling rig should be in
use.
Congress reduced the depletion
tax allowance from 27% per cent to
22 per cent in 1969 and practically
eliminated the allowance last
March.
C. John Miller, president of the
4,100-member trade group said
Tuesday he was not impressed by
the March efforts by Congress to
retain part of the allowance.for in
dependents.
“ By the time they encumbered it
with so many limitations, it was
meaningless, said the Allegan,
Mich., independent.
A natural gas report adopted at
the concluding session of the associ
ation’s annual meeting said a gas de
control bill approved by the Senate
last week was made almost ineffec
tive by amendments sponsored by'
Sens. Ernest F. Hollings, D-S. C.,
John Glenn, D-Ohio, and John V.
Tunney, D-Calif.
The amendments limit the
amount of new gas that woidd be
decontrolled and set a price ceiling
on emergency sales.
The independents said the
amendments severely limit the
amount of natural gas which would
become available for interstate con
sumers.
“The overall result of the action of
these senators and their supporters
is to mislead consumers into believ
ing some significant action has been
taken which will provide a substan
tial answer to our critical natural gas

shortage when in fact they' have
merely prolonged the crisis and de
layed the time when real progress
toward increasing natural gas pro
duction can begin,” the gas report
said.
The new female
By CAROL SHAKESHAFT
Reviewer
Television has been doing an un
usual thing lately.
It has, in some exciting new
shows, been portraying women as
strong, interesting individuals.
A
worth listening to, worth watching.
The major networks have made a
timid start, but public television is
the good guy.
PBS has four programs about
women currently running. The first
is a series on “Masterpiece
Theatre,” Sundays at 9 p.m., called
“Shoulder to Shoulder. This is an
excellent recreation of the women’s
rights movement in the late
eighteen-early nineteen hundreds
England, which was spearheaded
by the Pankhurst family. This look
at some earlier feminists shows the
“weaker sex militantly demanding
their rights by storming Parliament,
throwing rocks through windows,
and going to prison where they were
force fed. This is a fascinating series;
one of “Masterpiece Theatre s
best.
A look at women of today is pre
sented by 7 PBS on Tuesday nights in
two shows, “Women Alive and
“Woman. ”
“Women Alive is a ten part
series in magazine format which the
producer, Ronnie Eldridge says is a
documentation of what “we con
sider to be the woman s move
ment.” The first show presented a
look at Army wives and was filmed
at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. It discussed
the role these women play and
many of the changes that are occur
ring in that role. In addition,
Gretchen Cry'er and Nancy Ford,
musicians and composers, per
formed, and Shiela Tobias, a college
administrator, discussed “Math An
xiety” and what is being done to
alleviate women’s fear of mathema
tics. The second episode on Oct. 28
at 9 p.m. will feature a documentary
exploring how women are breaking
traditional female stereotypes in
jobs, and the New York Lyric Arts
Trio will perform.
i “Woman/ yvhjeh follows at 9:30
p.m., attempts to present women,
some well-known, some not,
through in-depth interviews.
Elizabeth Janeway, author and lec
turer was the subject of a two part
interview, the second part shown
Oct. 28, in which she discussed
the woman s movement, the bene
fits men derive from it,
discrimination of both sexes based
on age, and female assertiveness. It
is unfortunate that these two prog
rams appear back-to-back. Schedul
ing would insure a larger audience
and dispell the suspicion that the
station is trying to get them out of
the way.
“Jennie: Lady Randolph Chur
chill is PBS s final offering and is an
excellent series about Jennie Chur
chill, the mother of Winston. This
fascinating and strong woman is
protrayed by' Lee Remick, and the
program is not only interesting his
torically', it is good fun to watch.
Commercial television is more
careful with its programs for wo
men. “Babe,” was a one-shot at
tempt, and the story of a champion
woman athlete. Babe Didrikson

in track and field at the 1932 Olym
pics and later distinguished herself
in other sports as well.
