Opponents also say such efforts
are aimed at the basest instincts of
Americans, and that English is
hardly threatened by immigrants
who generally want to learn English
when they come here anyway
State Rep. Francis Bardanouve of
Montana said,“This is not an Ameri

think of as America.”
‘Eat your vegetables’
for health, experts say
BOSTON (AP) — Claims for the
health benefits of different vitamins
elements, oils and other arcane nu
trients pop up regularly. But often
the advice boils down to the same
idea: Eat your vegetables
It is one of the few reasonably un-
controversaal nuggets to emerge
from a growing mishmash of stud
ies, opinions and assumptions on the
interplay of diet and wen-being
On one thing food experts are vir
tually unanimous Saturated fat is
bad There is strong evidence it
causes heart disease, and it may have
something to do with cancer as well
Saying which foods are good for
you, however is much chancier Ex
perts note that behind all the food
fads, there is surpnsinglv little hard
evidence that a particular item will
increase your < >d<M of living longer
’’There aren’t anv magic foods.”
Dr Johanna Dwyer of New England
Medical Center said
What makes sense, she said, is em
phasi/mg plant foods in the diet
They are high in potassium and
other nutrients that may be benefi
rial, and they don't have much salt
or fat.
Here are some of the theories that
have popped up in recent years
• Vitamins A and E and beta ca
rotene prevent cancer They are
commonly found in such green veg
etables as broccoli and cabbage and
such yellow ones as carrots One be
lief is that they work by trapping
chemical compounds that can harm
the body’s cells
• Potassium deters strokes and
high blood pressure For stroke pre
vention, at least, an extra serving or
two of fruits or vegetables is said to
be linked with a .SO percent redut-
tmn in risk.
• Polyunsaturated fat. monosatu-
rated fat and omega 3 fatty acids
prevent heart disease Many vegeta
ble ods are high in polyunsaturated
fat; olive oil u a good source of mo-
nomtu rated fat. Fish od derived
from salmon and other oily ocean
fish contains omega-3 fatty acids.
None of these theories has been
proved beyond reasonable doubt,
and the evidence for some is down
right skimpv Vet all have their advo
cates.
So until scientists learn more
about the preventive power of food,
experts say the best advice is to avoid
saturated fat and. by all means, eat
those vegetables
Governor
causes stir
in shake-ups
PHOENIX. Ariz. (AP) — Gov
Evan Met ham, who vowed to shake
up the state’s bureaucracy, is shaking
up legislators as well with some of his
appointments, including an educa
tion lobbyist who says teachers
shouldn’t argue with students who
think the world is flat
The maverick Republican began
his administration last month amid
controversy by canceling a holiday
honoring the Rev Martin Luther
Kingjr
As expected, he methodically is
replacing many of the MX) ap
pointed officials who served in the
administration of long-time Demo
cratic Gov Bruce Babbitt
Some of his choices, however,
have alarmed even the Republican-
controlled state Senate, which has
decided to hire a private company to
invttsligatr some of the 300 nomi
nees who serve subject to Senate
consent
Met ham. a conservative who cam
paigned against his own party’s es
tablishment as much as against the
Democrats, has defended his choices
for appointive office
Longest married couple
in U.S. without argument
WEST KITTANNING. Pa (AP)
— Almost 81 vears after they paid M)
cents for a marriage licence and said
“I do.” Calvin and Mina Dunmire
are calmly accepting the fuss that
comes with being named the nation's
longest married couple
‘T’here’s no secret to it. We just
lived happily together.” Dunmire,
105, explained at the couple's south
western Pennsylvania home, glanc
ing at his wife, silent in her rocking
chair
“Mrs just did the housework, and
I did the outside work," he said Sat
urday. “That was all there was to »C
It wasn’t luck. We just loved each
other."
To the best of Dunmire's recollec
tion. he and his wife, who will soon
be 101, have never had an argument
since their marriage on April 24,
1906, across the Allegheny River m
kittanning
“We just enjoy each other, that’s

natural gas and banking businesses
Theirs is the kind of commitment
Worldwide Marriage Encounter, a
religion-oriented organization that
sponsors marriage enrichment
weekends, hoped to find in its third
annual search for the nation's long
est married couple
Tom Gorman of San Diego, said,
“Society needs to step back once a
year and coBectively tip our hats to
people who are husband and wife
and who are going through better
and worse and through thick and
thin.” He and his wife Jeanne are
this year’s national coordinators for
World Marriage Day, the second
Sunday of February.

With 82 years and three months
of marriage, last year’s winners. Oli

Ala., are still technically the nation s
longest living married
according to Worldwide

other organisers decided that rather
than honor the couple again, k
would be better to spreaul the glory.
