With the mercury reaching near
record highs in Bryan-College Sta

spend the afternoons swinging in a
hammock. But mornings, af
ternoons and nights for 10 consec
utive days?
J.D. Joyce, 19, of Bryan plans to

money to fight multiple sclerosis and

world record for swinging in a ham

ness record, but . . . the main thing is
to raise the money,” Joyce said.
He said he first got the idea to
raise the money when his sister-in-
law, Darbie Joyce of Dallas, was diag
nosed as having multiple sclerosis, a
degenerative disease that affects the
central nervous system.
Joyce, a sophomore business ad
ministration major at Texas A&M,
began swinging July 29 and hopes to
raise $10,000 before he calls it quits

Joyce has raised about $2,300 so
far, but said he is confident he’ll
make his $10,000 goal.
He set up the hammock and a
large shade tent behind JD’s Old-
Time Sno-Cones, the business he op
erates during the summer. Joyce has
been operating the snow cone stand
for three years.
He said he has received a lot of
support from his customers as well
as from his family and friends.
His cousin Ken King and friend
Roland Tieh will be working for half
price at the snow cone stand while
Joyce spends his days and nights
swinging.
“I’ve spent about $500 setting up
this event, and I’m not going to take
any of that out of the donations I’ve
received,” Joyce said. “All the money
will go for MS research.”
Although Joyce can take a break
for five minutes each hour, he said
he is accumulating his break time in
case any problems occur during his
attempt to break the eight day and
four hour record. He needs to have
enough time to make repairs in case
something breaks, he said.
He swings the hammock, which is
suspended between two poles, by
tugging one of the ropes strung
through pulleys on either side.
One of the problems Joyce faces is
getting enough rest during the 240-
hour event.
“If I give the rope a good, hard
tug, the hammock will keep swr*
ing for about two to five ininuit
Joyce said. “I’ll be able todozeofl:

Study: White males more prone to heart disease
CHICAGO (AP) — White males
may be naturally more susceptible to
coronary heart disease than black
males or women of either race, a
long-term study by researchers at
Louisiana State University suggests.
The difference is in the way cer
tain proteins that either promote or
prevent the buildup of cholesterol in
the bloodstream behave in growing
bodies, according to the study di
rected by Dr. Gerald Berenson.
While all children experienced a
drop in both types of proteins — and
total cholesterol levels — in early
adolescence, white boys experienced
an inordinate drop in the level of the
proteins that prevent cholesterol
buildup, Berenson said in a tele
phone interview Tuesday.
Researchers gathered data on
about 8,000 subjects, one-third of
them black and two-thirds white, in
the 15-year project, which is still un
der way. The subjects, living in Bo-
galusa, La., ranged in age from early
infancy to 26 years, Berenson said.
The project is the first large-sam
ple study to use measurements of
apolipoproteins, a protein compo
nent, according to Pediatrics, the
journal of the American Academy of
Pediatrics, which reported the find
ings in its August issue.
The study also is unusual in using
childhood data to suggest a hered
itary link among apolipoproteins,
cholesterol and coronary heart dis
ease, said Howard Lewis, a spokes
man for the American Heart Asso-
white men are more prone to coro
nary heart disease than other
groups, Berenson said.
“But most of our attention to
heart disease looks at end-stage, cri
sis medicine,” he said. “We’re
looking at the early natural history
where it begins.”
He said researchers found the be
ginnings of coronary heart disease in
children as young as 3 years old,
with black children actually showing
more cholesterol in their blood ves
sels and arteries. Coronary heart dis
ease is a result of artherosclerosis,
the blockage of arteries by choles
terol, Berenson said.

Researchers have long known that
Women of both races tend to de

than men, he said.
