America "Spinach and radish greens and various wild varieties are rich sources of vitamins and minerals, and we suggest people mix these with vegetables they like," she adds. A related and very serious problem is a lack of animal protein in the diet of the Central American peasant, especially in children. "The people can't afford meat, so we have developed good vegetable proteins as substitutes." She considers Dr. Nevin S.

Scrimshaw, now at MIT, father of INCAP and its School of Nutrition, even though the school didn't begin its four-year course until 1966, with an original class of 20. Today the school has 54 students from all over Central America and Panama, including the 16 graduates of 1970, plus 13 in the first year; 11, second' year; and 14, third. At first restricted to women, the school's 43 different courses now are open to both, sexes. Students enter after high school and take 20 credit hours a term. Although professional staff members of INCAP serve as instructors, the school is affiliated with San Carlos University.

ALLAN K. RISDON Special to The Gazette GUATEMALA CITY- in Central America is declares Dr. Susana director of the School of and Dietetics at the of Nutrition of Central and Panama (INCAP) basic problem is that don't know what to inn By "Malnutrition enormous," Icaza, Nutrition Institute America here. "The mothers feed their children." People waste many foods because they don't know their values, she explains. "So the School of Nutrition is here to train trainers on nutrition." The school began a four-year course of study in 1966 and this year will graduate its first class.

The school is part of the educational division of INCAP, a nutritional research organization serving Panama and the Central American Common Market nations of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. DR. ICAZA, who became head of the school last year, believes the primary job is to teach her students to go into communities and show persons how to eat properly "to improve the way they use what they have." One big problem is a severe deficiency of vitamin important for the development of sight, all over Central America and especially in El Salvador. "One way to solve this is to eat more greens, but the people often reject these because they're not considered a prestige food. uutuuiyjii The hrlsfian rothers AK sfioJBrol r.t2 1 I uiL randif There's a Lot Behind the Show A lot of backstage sweat goes into producing a show.

(E918-172) I PANEL MAGIC By DAN VICHOREK Gazette Staff Writer Air pollution contributes to many deaths although it does not get the blame, Ed Wading-ton of the City-County air pollution board said Wednesday night. Wadington spoke at the third session of an environmental workshop at Eastern Montana College.

He said that when air pollution substances reach certain levels human mortality is increased, but air pollution is seldom listed as the cause of death. PEOPLE DO not get concerned unless pollution directly' causes outright death, he said. "It doesn't concern them if they are only going to die ten years younger," he said. Two hundred parts per million (ppm) of carbon monoxide breathed for one hour can be fatal, he said, noting that levels on Los Angeles freeways run about 200 ppm. Cigarette smokers add 400 ppm to their lungs while inhaling, he said, along with about 100 ppm each of nitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide.

Wadington said particulate matter can be fatal when density is 750 millionths of a gram per cubic meter. BILLINGS AIR usually has about 90 micograms per cubic meter he said, with levels sometimes much higher. Also, he said, particulate matter and chemical pollution do not act alone on health, but combine their effects. Sulphur dioxide, for example, can combine with hydrogen and oxygen to form sulphuric acid. Carbon dioxide is building up in the atmosphere at a relatively rapid rate, he said, and climate changes may result.

Temperature inversions contribute to the air pollution problem in Billings by holding pollutants at a relatively low level, he said.

When pollutant materials issue from a smokestack, he said, they seek an air level of the same density. When there is a temperature inversion, the pollutants are more dense than the warm, expanded air at the top of the stack, so they drop to a level where the air is cold and dense enough to support the pollutants.

Inversions over Billings often are 500 or more feet thick, he said, so Montana Power's 350 foot stack does little good, according to Wadington. IF THE STACK were tall enough to get pollutants above the inversion layer into colder, denser air, the pollutants would rise to higher levels, Wadington said. Dr. Norman Schoenthal of the EMC biology department, said the atmosphere serves important functions besides breathing.
