Blood fat norm
seen “too high”
United Press International
NEW YORK — Two doctors
say many heart attack victims
have cholesterol levels that are
considered normal, indicating
the “normal” level may be set too
high.
Drs. Joseph Goldstein and
Michael S. Brown of the Univer
sity of Texas Health Center in
Dallas said the standards need to
be reconsidered.
In a lecture prepared for de
livery Tuesday at the Mount
Sinai Medical Center, they said
most patients who have heart
attacks have cholesterol levels
that are considered normal for
the population.
“Yet, sufficient plasma LDL
(low- density lipoprotein) choles
terol was deposited in their
coronary arteries to produce an
occlusion,” they said.
“The question we would now
like to address is as follows,‘Are
the plasma LDL-cholesterol
levels we consider normal, really
normal, or might the normal
values actually be excessively
high?’”
The Merck Manual says an
abnormal cholesterol level is
“greater than 200 milligrams
over 100 milliliters plus the per
son’s age.”
The text of the Goldstein-
Brown lecture will be published
in the December’s Clinical Re
search.
Brown and Goldstein were to
accept the 1982 Lita Annenberg
Hazen Award for Excellence in
Clinical Research, which carries
a $100,000 prize.
The two Dallas researchers
were chosen for their work in
identifying the LDL receptor
pathway, the mechanism by
which body cells obtain choles
terol, and determining how an

SANTA MONICA, Calif. —
A disheveled old man sleeping
in a park was arrested for vag
rancy but the $19,000 in cash
and checks he was carrying
made police realize he was not a
run-of-the-mill bum.
The man told police he re
fused to pay $35 for a hotel
room.
Officer Kenneth Hillman
arrested Raymond Edward Jen
sen, 67, as he slept Sunday night
wrapped in a plastic poncho
under a palm tree in Palisades
Park overlooking the beach.
Hillman took Jensen to the
station where he was booked for
lodging in a public place.
But the police realized they
were not dealing with a run-of-
the-mill bum when they looked
in Jensen’s beat-up Army fati
gue jacket and found
$11,178.95 in cash, $6,600 in
traveler’s checks, $1,130 in un
cashed government disability
checks and $ I 10 in U.S. Savings
Bonds.
Jensen said he had been
sleeping in the park for about a
month since leaving his resi
dence in Glendale, Calif., after a
dispute with his landlord.
“I used to have a car,” he said,
“but it was stolen from a parking
lot.”
Jensen also said he had
another $30,000 in the bank,
said he receives governmemd
ability checks fora nervousd
order he suffered in
military.
