A U.S. N/
School clinics reducing pregnancy raten|
United Press International
NEW YORK — A research arm of
the Planned Parenthood Federation
of America says in a report that fami
ly planning clinics in two St. Paul,
Minn., high schools have reduced
the rate of pregnancies among stu
dents in those schools by 40 percent.
The report was written by Dr.
Laura E. Edwards and associates in
“Family Planning Perspectives” — a
Planned Parenthood of America
publication.
Similar services in all the nation’s
high schools would reduce the num
ber of teen-age pregnancies — now
running an “epidemic” 1 million a
year, Edwards said in a telephone
interview.
At first, the pioneer family plan
ning clinics in the St. Paul schools
didn’t draw too well, apparently be
cause students did not wish to be
seen entering them. So other health
services were added to provide
anonyminity — cover — including
athletic, job and college physicals,
immunizations and weight control
programs.
The work is done by the clinic staff
consisting of a medical social worker,
a nurse practitioner specializing in
family planning, and a clinic atten
dant.
The report said 25 percent of the
female students in the high schools
concerned asked for family planning,
Bob Hope
says:
“Red Cross
can teach you
first aid.
And first aid
can be a
life saver.”
A Pubhc Service of This Newspaper A The Advertising Council
and 87 percent of them have con
tinued contraception after three
years.
The journal in which the report
appeared is a production of the Alan
Guttmacher Institute, research arm
of Planned Parenthood Federation.
The Federation budget of around
$116 million last year included about
$50 million reimbursement in tax
funds for research and services.
The report on family planning in
the classroom was teamed with two
others on teenage pregnancy.
One, from the National Institutes
of Health, showed the intellectual
development of children born to
teenagers, as well as their physical
health subsequent to birth, may be
jeopardized by their parents’ ex
treme youth.
The other from Census Bureau
analysts said there is a sharp rise
among teenagers in the percentage
of first births that are conceived out
of wedlock, and a decline in “shotgun
weddings” — the after-the-fact legi
timation of these births by marriage.
Since the mid-1950s, the fraction
of first births premaritally conceived
has more than doubled among white
teenagers and grown by about half
among black teenagers.
Dr. Edwards is head of the St.
Paul-Ramsey Hospital Maternal and
Infant Care Project and an assistant
professor of obstetrics and gynecolo
gy at the University of Minnesota.
She said the clinics are a continua
tion of one opened in a St. Paul
junior-senior high school in 1973.
When that school closed in 1976,
funds were sought to open clinics in
the two senior high schools where
the students of the closed school
were sent.
The pioneer program in the St.
Paul schools, designed to show what
could be done in high schools to cut
teenage pregnancies, was partially
funded by the U.S. Department of
Health, Education and Welfare’s
Maternal and Infant Care Project.
The National Center for Health
Statistics, in Washington, said there
were 559,154 births to mothers 19
years and under in 1977 — the latest
year for which national statistics are
available.
The national Center for Disease
Control in Atlanta, keeper of statis
tics on abortion, said during 1977
those 19 and under accounted for
332,486 abortions.
Dr. Richard Selik, of the CDC’s
Family Planning Evaluation Divi
sion, said when adding stillborns and
ectopic pregnancies the figure on
teenage pregnancies comes to a little
more than a million.
Other highlights from the report
by Dr. Edwards and Mary E. Stein-
man, Kathleen A. Arnold and Dr.
Erick Y. Hakanson — chairman of
the department of obstetrics and
gynecology at St. Paul-Ramsey hos
pital and professor of obstetrics and
gynecology at the university:
— The original junior-senior high
school clinic was unanimously sup
ported by the St. Paul school board,
after some initial hesitation, with the
stipulation the school principal
would be responsible for the project.
— In response to community
pressures, contraceptives would not
be dispensed in the school itself, but
would be made available to the stu
dents by school clinic staff at a nearby
clinic.
— By the time the first school
closed, at the end of the 1975-76
school year, its clinic had been used
by about two-thirds of 12th grade
students and by more than nine in 10
pregnant students.

GREENWICH, Conn. — The
story of Robinson Crusoe has en
chanted generations since the 1700s.
Many people yearn to live on islands
themselves.
But a man who sells such places
says the castaway life isn’t for every
body.
“People don’t realize the logistics
of living on an island. They are very
complicated,” says Bruce Wenner-
strom, president of Previews, Inc., a
Greenwich-based realty-marketing
network of 20,000 brokers that
matches people with property worl
dwide.
“A fellow called me two weeks ago
and wanted to buy a Greek island.
The majority are uninhabited, sun-
beaten and barren. Beautiful blue
water around them. But no electric-

ity. Probably no water. No boat ser
vice or anything else. Assuming you
overcome these things,” he asked,
“Who do you talk to?”
Robinson Crusoe talked to his par
rot for 24 years in author Daniel De
foe’s story.
“You have to really have a very
strong family unit to go on to an is
land,’ Wennerstrom said.
“We continually get calls on is
lands. Everybody wants to buy one
for $20,000. There aren’t many of
those, ’ says Wennerstrom, 52,
whose firm has sold dozens of islands
since its 1933 founding during the
Depression, when it began its prac
tice of catering to the well-to-do.
Among the islands in Wenner
strom s sales kit:
— Restoration Island in the Coral
Sea off Australia, where Capt. Bligh
and 18 of the crew were restored to
their vigor in 1789 after the mutiny
on the Bounty.
— Whitehead Island in Sault St.
Marie, Mich., a 12-acre hunting and
fishing refuge on the St. Mary River
that has shelter facilities for boats up
to 35 feet long.
— Up to 46 people can be accom
modated in the main lodge on Atso-
kan Island in Rainy Lake, Minn.,
gateway to Voyageur’s National
Park, six miles east of International
Falls, Minn. Price: $225,000.
— Patience Island in Narragansett
Bay off Newport, R.I., which adjoins
Prudence Island. Both were sold in
1637 by Chief Canonicus for "20
fathom of wampum and two coats” to
Gov. John Winthrop and Roger Wil
liams. The islands are named for Wil
liams’ daughters and were given
them for their dowries.
Everybody dreams of owning an
island where, Wennerstrom says,
“you pull up the drawbridge or pull
the boat in and become the master of
all you survey.”
Previews helps owners unload ev
erything from a $3.5 million “seig-
neurial domain” in the American
south to sundrenched villas on the
French Riviera and Scottish and Ir
ish castles — the most recent an in
sulated eight-roomer that sold for
$295,000 at Newmarket-on Fergus in
County Clare. It had slits in the
bricks —just the thing to fire arrows
through to beat back weekend drop-
ment tennis court, and4
a 2,000-gallon underpin
