Jesse Bernard, author of “The Future of Marriage,” “The Sex Game” and “Academic Women,” also is predicting most women will continue to work af ter their marriages and probably will have at least one child. When that child or the youngest of the children reaches school age, the woman is likely to return to work or school, Ber nard said. The average marriage now has a 50 percent chance of en ding in divorce, she told about 100 people during a Monday night speech at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Montreal Alo Congressman Phil Gramm kept his promise. When Phil Gramm ran for Congress, he promised to fight to gain control of federal spending so that we could stop inflation, lower interest rates and balance the budget. And despite determined political opposition, he kept that promise. On the first day of his first session in Congress, Phil Gramm introduced a constitutional amendment requiring a balanced budget. Before he had been in Congress six months, he offered an amendment which would have tied a balanced budget requirement to an extension of the ceiling on the national debt. It lost by just two votes. Twice during the Carter Administra tion, Phil Gramm offered major legislation to substantially reduce federal spending. Last year, he authored Gramm-Latta I and II, which were approved by Congress and signed into law. Those proposals reduced federal spending in over 250 federal programs by more than $130 billion, reduced the rate of growth in federal spending to 5% a year, the lowest growth rate since 1965, and eliminated 68,500 bureaucratic jobs in Washington. At the same time, Gramm-Latta I and II reinforced our commitment to a strong national defense and protected earned benefits for veterans and Social Security recipients. This year, Congressman Phil Gramm has introduced a package of additional reductions in the deficit, to put downward pressure on interest rates and allow the economy to recover. His budget alternative preserves the income tax cut passed last year and protects earned benefits under Social Security, federal retirement and veterans’ programs. But because he kept his promise, Phil Gramm has been attacked by those who don’t want spending controlled or the budget balanced. He has been criticized for failing to put partisanship above principles—his principles and ours. Because he took the long view of what’s good for the country instead of settling for short term political expediency, because he did what he promised us he would do, the advocates of big government and greater federal power don’t want Congressman Phil Gramm reelected. But we have something to say about that. On Saturday, May 1st, let’s show the free spenders and regulators that we share Phil Gramm’s determination to limit the growth of government spending and balance the budget. Let’s show them we stand behind our Congressman who keeps his promises. Congressman Phil Gramm—One Man Who Has Made A Difference. Reelect Congressman Gramm Vote in the May 1st Democratic Primary. Paid for by the Committee to Relect Phil Gramm, Dennis Goehring, Treasurer Study shows new drug makes obese mice virile United Press International PHILADEL PHIA — Fat, im potent mice became slender Don Juans despite a steady diet of sweets when given a drug being tested at Temple Univer sity for treatment of chronic overeaters. The study, conducted by Dr. David L. Margules, found the drug nalaxone depressed the appetites of male laboratory mice and caused them to burn up more calories. This pre vented them from becoming overweight even when they overate. In addition, Margules found nalaxone heightened the sexual interest of male mice previously suffering from stress-related impotence. “This drug has been shown to turn them into studs,” Margules said Tuesday. Tests results on female mice were inconclusive, he said. Margules, a psychology pro fessor at Temple University, be lieves the drug works by block ing the body’s release of mor phine-like substances known as endorphins that slow the meta bolism and prevent calories from being burned. Endorphins, produced by the brain and pituitary glands, appear in abnormally high levels in overweight mice, Margules said, lending support for the hypothesis they are related to obesity. In the study, mice were fed steady diets of cookies and sweets to bloat them. Then they were administered the drug. “Even though they were still able to eat sweets, they didn’t get fat,” Margules said. The drug, patented by DuPont Corp., has been used outside of the United States for treatment of morphine* lion. It has not been::,, for use on humans in theL : States, Margules said. “Because we believed th an addiction to food in i® people, we thought thisi would be a good tool,"Map explained. “It has to do whole problem of addiction 1 the feelings of well-being ptl get when they eat.” The sexual effects of the 1 ’' also are promising. “This drug might be helpful for treatment ofsei dary impotence, due toJ 1 and psychological causes, not due to a lack of teste* one,” Margules said. a Potential side effects of' drug are still unknown, gules suspects it may impair body’s ability to ward off' lion.
