United Press International SAN ANTONIO — A drug used to treat high blood press ure appears to stimulate hair growth when applied to the scalps of prematurely balding men, a researcher said Wednesday. Dr. Richard De Villez, assis tant professor of dermatology at the University of Texas Health Science Center, said the drug produced remarkable responses in balding men during a year long clinical study. The results confirmed simi lar studies conducted with mino- WELCOME BACK AGGIES JOIN CHUCK E. CHEESE FOR THE MOST FUN & THE BEST PIZZA IN TOWN.

The study showed that 12 men in the 56-man study showed “a noticable cosmetic en hancement of hair growth” after the drug was administered directly to the scalp twice a day for one year. De Villez said 16 other volun teers in the study showed “ada- quate improvement” in hair count, while 28 men showed no response and “grew only fuzz.” “We’re not sure how the drug promotes hair growth,” he said. “Perhaps it stimulates sleeping hair bulbs by providing them with an increased supply of blood and nutrients, or maybe it blocks hair bulb sensitivity to the balding effect of the male hor mone testosterone.” |Z n .

Neither has been resolved. However he cited a case the University recently lost as one of the most important to higher education. A lawsuit was filed against the University in 1981 petitioning for the release of the names of the nominees for the University presidency. The Uni versity was required to release i the names to the Bryan-College Station Eagle after the decision by the Texas Supreme Court. “I think that as a matter of law, that case stood as the most important issue for all higher education,” he said. “The appli cation of the open records law as determined will be a serious de triment to the real world recruit ment of the type of people needed for those jobs.” He said he did not see a role j for the public in the selection ! process when a cross section of people from students to admi nistrators has been chosen to make such decisions. The court’s decision was a crippling blow to the selection process, he said. As a result of the decision, Bond said there will be less for mal activity taking place during a selection process with fewer re cords being kept.
