Researcher:
Exercise may
prevent cancer
Found: Old, deaf Beagle, female, near Chicken Oil.
845-9061 (d), 696-8971 (n). 9U2/16
BOSTON (AP) — Girls should be
encouraged to exercise vigorously
enough to delay their puberty, be
cause this may help protect them
from breast cancer and other dis
eases later in life, a researcher said
Sunday.
Grade school girls who play stren
uous sports often have their first
menstrual period, or menarche,
later than usual. Even after adoles
cence starts, they may miss periods if
they exercise regularly.
Although delayed or missing
menstruation is often thought to be
abnormal, some experts now say that
it is natural and even desirable, be
cause it may protect the body from
the damaging effects of sex hor
mones.
American girls have been going
through puberty at increasingly
early ages throughout this century.
I
Dr. Rose E. Frisch of the Harvard
School of Public Health said that
typically American girls now have
their first period at age 12V2. But if
they exercise in such vigorous sports
as tennis, running, basketball or soc
cer, their average age at menarche is
15'/a, the same as it was 100 years
a s°-
And Frisch said a simple rule
seems to apply: The more menstrual
cycles a woman has over her lifetime,
the greater her chance of breast can
cer, the biggest cancer killer among
U.S. women. So anything that delays
the start of menstruation should
lower the cancer risk.
“I suggest that regular exercise
starting early in elementary school
would have a long-term spin-off in
reduced risk of breast cancer and,
from our data, a reduced risk of dia
betes and cancer of the reproductive
system,” Frisch said.
She and other experts who study
the effects of exercise on reproduc
tion presented their work at a meet
ing of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science.
Recent federal statistics suggest
that the risk of dying from breast
cancer may actually be increasing.
Dr. Jack Fishman of Rockefeller
University said breast cancer may
take 40 years to develop. “What you
do in puberty can be very relevant to
what happens in breast cancer after
menopause,” he said.
Frisch based her recommenda
tion, in part, on a study she con
ducted on 5,398 women who grad
uated from 10 U.S. colleges. She
found that those who had been ath
letic in college and high school had
only about half as much cancer of
the breast and reproductive system
later in life as those didn’t get regu
lar exercise.
Those who have delayed or irreg
ular periods during their teen-age
years seem to suffer no long-term
problems. Frisch’s study found that
athletic women had just as many
children as those who were less ac
tive.
Dr. Tenley E. Albright, a Boston
surgeon who was an Olympic skating
champion, said coaches and parents
often consider delayed or missing
periods to be a disorder, while
young athletes often do not.
She said the condition should be
thought of as an “appropriate adapt
ive response” by the body, not a de
fect.
The relationship between exercise
and fertility is complex. Experts be
lieve that very lean and muscular
women sometimes cannot get preg
nant because their bodies do not
have enough fat. to nourish a grow
ing fetus. They must slow down
their exercise and put on some
weight to become fertile.

Next president may face recession
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
recent spate of skittish economic
indicators is raising concerns that
the next president will take office
without the tools to combat a re
cession, even if an election-year
downturn can be avoided.
That’s because the federal bud
get deficit has grown so huge that
the historical remedies for jolting
an economy out of a recession —
lower taxes and more federal
spending — simply will not be
available to the next president, a
growing number of analysts say.
In fact, if anything, the next
occupant of the Oval Office will
be under extreme pressure to
press for higher taxes to reduce
the budget deficit —a tactic that
would become all but impossible
during an actual recession.
In 1981, when the last reces
sion began, the federal budget
deficit stood at $78 billion. By
1987, with the recovery from that
recession entering its sixth year,
the shortfall was $148 billion af-

Activists make proposal for elections
ridit fie
Bi th
hoi
MOSCOW (AP) — Communist
Party activists proposed in an arti
cle on the front page of Pravda
on Sunday that more than one
candidate be put forward for top
party posts and that all party
members be allowed to vote.
The suggestions, appearing in
the party’s main newspaper, came
from party activists in the Uk
raine.
Although the proposals do not
have the party’s formal approval,
their appearance on Pravda’s
front page indicated the lead
ership is seriously considering
them.
The article said the issue would
be formally taken up at the 19th
All-Union Party Conference, a
rare gathering of the nation’s
Communists to be held June 28 in
Moscow.
Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorba
chev has said electoral reform will
be a key topic at the conference.
He has talked about many of the
same suggestions printed in
Pravda, beginning at a plenary
meeting ol the party’s Central
Committee in January 1986.
At that session, he raised the is
sue of secret ballots and discussed
the possibilities of giving party
members a choice in voting for
top party officials.
He also criticized the system
that allows bureaucrats to reirnin
in party posts for life while per
forming little work. He lalkeb
about broadening the nominatM
procedure for government elec
tions.
Some of the suggestions have
been adopted experimental
I-ast June, “multiple-candte
elections” for local party pose
were held in several areas. The
government called the system
democratization, although all
candidates must be approved bv
the Communist Party, and no
ot her parties can be created.
In the June experiments,part)
members in one of every 25 vy
ing districts chose among more
than one candidate for local gov
erning councils. Runoff elections
had to be held in 59 of the Soviet
Union’s 52,000 districts because
candidates tied.
Although there lias been no
firm indication whether the ex
periment will be expanded,
continuing articles in the pressin-
dicate the idea is, still very mueb
alive. The party cohference in
June could set the stage for mak
ing the system permanent and
nationwide.

Millions jobless in communist China
BEIJING (AP) — Every day,
they gather by the dozens, some
times hundreds, near a highway
overpass in Beijing in hopes of
finding a job in this so-called
workers’ paradise, where practi
cally no one is ever fired.
“I’ll take anything,” said a 20-
year-old girl from clirt-poor An
hui province, muffled against the
cold by several sweaters and a
greatcoat as she waited for job of
fers at the unofficial street labor
market.
She is among millions of
Chinese — some down and out,
others just restless — who are
drifting beyond the fringes of tra
ditional socialist work patterns.
Some come To these informal
labor markets. Others find jobs in
small factories which are spring
ing up in former rice paddies as
part of a drive to absorb the na
tion’s surplus farming popula
tion. Many are moving into the
nation’s mushrooming service in
dustry or taking avantage of
China’s new system of contracted
labor.
All together, they have given I
China’s economy a new mobly
and vitality, as well as introducing ,
new problems of rising ui
ployrnent and a breakdown in so-’
cial controls.
The Anhui girl said sk
worked for two years in Beijingas,
a waitress, returned home fora
while, and now was back for an
other try.
A 37-year-old handyman from I
H enan province said he had fin-1
ishecl a work contract that gave I
him a bed and about $1.20 a day I
He said if he can’t find “suitable' I
work, he planned to return totk I
wife and two children heleftbe j
hind on his farm.
Such roving would have been
impossible a decade ago, when
Chinese were assigned jobs fot
life and were seldom allowed to
leave their village. But Deng
Xiaoping’s market-oriented re
forms, begun in 1979, are grad'
ually turning the Chineseworket
loose, and in doing so, chai
the face of the land.
