Depression puzzles experts Men hide depression, avoid being counted depression symptoms than men. Finally it may be that it is simply more depressing to be female. Yale researcher Myrna Weissman and psychiatrist Gerald Klerman, in a study often dted as a classic in the field, concluded that wo7 men's lives may be at the root of women's higher depression rate.

That conclusion came avoid losing one Girls are taught that if a woman isn't with a man, something is wrong with her." Since most depression can be traced to some triggering event a divorce, say, or a disappointment many experts believe the tendency of women to blame themselves when life goes awry is a key to their higher depression rate. At the University of Pennsylvania, psychologist Martin Seligman has identified an "attributional style," or way of viewing events, that is common to depression-prone people. Women in general are more likely to have the depressive attributional style, he said. It's not surprising, then, that one way to cure depression is to change the way its victims view their world to reshape their thinking to avoid depressing pitfalls. Thursday: Talking Your Way Out of Depression By Tht Associated Press Though twice as many women as men become depressed, some experts believe there are men out there who have not been counted perhaps because depression takes a different form in men.

"Men may cope differently, so that they don't end up looking like depressed people," said psychologist Jeffrey Young of the University of Pennsylvania Center for Cognitive Therapy. "It may be that depressed men throw themselves into their work and look stressed or anxious." The center director, Dr. Aaron Beck, noted that studies have found that it is more socially acceptable for a woman to be depressed. "Women get a sympathetic reaction when they express depression, but men get rejected," he said. While 65 percent of the center's patients are women, Beck said, "Women tend to come to us sooner and to be less severely depressed than men.

Men tend to let it go, which seems to me the only sensible explanation for the higher suicide rate in men." In 1978, 19 men in 100,000 committed suicide, compared with 6.3 women in But suicide experts -like Dr. Calvin Frederick of the National Institute of Mental Health warn that suicide rates can't be used as a measure of depression. "All suicides aren't necessarily depressed," he said. Some, for instance, are mortally ill. Some are crazed by other psychiatric disorders.

Another explanation for the higher male suicide rate is that men tend to succeed when they attempt to kill themselves because they generally use emphatically lethal means guns, explosives and hanging. Women fail more often because they tend to use poisons or drug overdoses. But in a study of depression rates, psychiatrist Gerald Klerman and Yale researcher Myrna Weissman concluded that the evidence is overwhelming two times more women than men actually do get depressed. And while it wouldn't account for the vast numerical difference in depressed men and women, they also decided they couldn't rule out a popular theory'that some men turn to alcohol to obliterate depression's pain. They cited studies that found between 35 and 50 percent of alcoholic men have depressive symptoms.

But there's a rub: Alcohol is a depressant. Did the depression bring on the drinking or did the drinking trigger the depression? liberated times it still applies: Girls aren't aggressive or competitive. They are warm and sympathetic. Girls aren't fighters. They are peacemakers.

Something is basically wrong with a girl if boys don't like her. Sixty-five percent of the center's depressed patients are women, and mostly they're depressed about men, said psychologist Jeffrey Young. "The worst thing they can imagine is being without a he said. "They'll tolerate enormous amounts of unhappiness and misery to leased by the President's Advisory, Committee' on Women found 50 percent of Americans still think a woman's place is in the home. Most also thought doctors, lawyers and bankers should be men, while nurses and salespeople should be women.

One-third of the women surveyed thought they could have done better in life if they'd been men, and one fourth said being female had kept them from accomplishing what they wanted. The litany of rules for feminity is familiar, but experts say that even in these By JANE SEE WHITE Of Ttit Associated Press Depression is not an equal-opportunity illness. Two-thirds of the 2.4 million Americans who are suffering severe symptoms of this disabling ailment and millions more with milder pro-blems are women. Why? The answer remains a puzzle. But scientists say depression is probably caused by a mix of biology, psychology and life experiences.

"Depression probably doesn't exist by itself," said psychologist Violet Franks of the Carrier Clinic in Belle Meade, N.J. "It's tied up with feelings and self-image and life situation." One theory is that depres- sion may have a genetic component: Researchers studying identical twins found there is a 68 percent likelihood that if one twin becomes depressed, in time the other will too. It may be that some mothers pass to their daughters a predisposition to depression. Another theory is that depression stems from chemical changes in the brain. Another suspect is hormones.

Women expert-ence wide hormonal changes during child-bearing years, they're most vulnerable to depression. It may also be that men mask depression better than women Three times more men than women commit suicide perhaps partly because men succeed more often. Men typically use deadly women typically use poisons or drugs. "Studies have found that the overt expression of depression is less socially acceptable in men," said Dr. Aaron Beck, chief of the University of Pennsylvania Center for Cognitive Therapy.

They concluded that "ele- Seconddf three parts ments of the traditional female role" may pontribute to women's higher depression rate. They noted, for instance, that "real social discrimination" makes it difficult for women to achieve, that women's jobs in and out of the home tend to be lower status than men's, and that married men are less likely than single or divorced men to become depressed, while this is not the case for women. Many other experts believe a source of women's depression is the way women learn to think, to cope and to live.

Ruth Greenberg of the Center for Cognitive Therapy says the high rate of female depression has "a lot to do with what women "Women learn more 'shoulds' and if they can't deliver the payment may be depression," she said. Certain culturally transmitted requirements affect women every day, whether they know it or not."

With the exception of the Bruce Clark case, in which he says, "we really didn't get a chance to negotiate," Harlan describes his major deals as "pleasant negotiations." Harlan is still a great sports fan with a particular fondness for college basketball. He admits though, that he has a difficult time, watching the Packers for relaxation. Recently, Harlan took up cross-country skiing with his wife and the couple also enjoys golf and tennis together.

The Harlans have three sons. The eldest, Kevin, is studying sports broadcasting at the University of Kansas. The second oldest, Bryan, is a pre-law freshman at the University of Iowa and the youngest, Mike, is 11 years old and not pursuing any career aims. dinal Caravan," speaking before civic groups and drumming up support for the club. In 1971 Harlan moved to Green Bay as an assistant to Packer Geheral Manager Dan Devine.

His work became very different from the public relations work he had been in previously. Working under Devine, Harlan became involved in contract negotiations, a responsibility he assumed completely when Bart Starr succeeded Devine in 1975. Harlan now negotiates the contracts for all the players, scouts, and assistant coaches. Considering the free agents, rookies, and veterans completing their pacts, Harlan is negotiating almost year-round. Although many players are represented by attorneys and professional agents, Harlan says his own lack of legal training isn't By DAVE TIANEN Of the Prest-Gaiettt When Bob Harlan graduated from Marquette Journalism School in 1958, his only ambition was to become a sportswriter on his hometown paper, the Des Moines Register a goal it now seems unlikely that he will ever attain.

But since Harlan is now corporate general manager of the Green Bay Packers and a director of the First Wisconsin Bank of Green Bay, it appears unlikely he will be applying at the Register any day soon. Harlan did spend a brief period in the news business, working in the Milwaukee bureau of United Press International following his graduation. An opportunity soon arose, however, 'to turn to Marquette as sports information director. He Wisconsin twice and upset top ten ranked St. John's.

Harlan missed McGuire's glory years, however, because in 1966 he took a job with the St. Louis Cardinals, baseball team as their director of commuhity In that capacity, he found himself one of the busiest speakers in St. Louis. Some years he gave as many as 250 speeches, in addition to arranging public appearances for members of the team. During the winter, Harlan and other members of the team organization would tour six states in "The Car remained at Marquette in that capacity until 1965.

Those were interesting years at Marquette. The university dropped football and track from its athletic program, the basketball team was not immensely successful either. Reeling from a 5 and 21 season, Marquette hired a little known basketball coach named Al McGuire to try to turn things around. Harlan recalls McGuire, as "a fascinating man to work for." His first season at MU the team finished at 8 and 18 but beat the University of Bob Harlan much of a handicap. "A lot of it, quite honestly," he says, "doesn't require any legal expertise.

Ninety-five percent of the contracts are normal contracts." Although he misses the closeness he had with the athletes when he was working in public relations, Harlan finds his present work That may explain why depressing, there's no difference between depression rates of working wives and housewives, said Lenore Ra-dloff of the National Institute of Mental Health.
