Thursday, June 12, 1986 Santa Cruz Sentinel A-5 Fourth District vote now AIDS measure blasted official would not do much better in the fall than he had in the spring. Oaks and Gartner, meanwhile, predicted an upset in November. "It's a brand new ballgame," said the 64-year-old Oaks, who said a higher voter turnout would work to his benefit in the fall. Oaks, who calls himself a "common-sense progressive," said he was looking forward to a "great clarification of the issues" in the fall campaign against his more conservative opponent. "We definitely pulled off an upset," exulted Gartner, who noted that few political observers had believed before last week that Oaks would make it into the runoff.

"And an upset over (Mehl) is definitely what's in store for November." OJ. Simpson's father dies at 66 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Jimmy Lee Simpson, father of football player O. J. Simpson, died Monday of cancer. He was 66.

Simpson, a native of Wilmot, was a resident of San Francisco for the past 40 years. He was a chef at the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco for 35 years and retired last year. O. whose given name is Or-enthal James, was born in San Francisco, and played football at Galileo High School and City College of San Francisco before going to the University of Southern California where he won the Heisman Trophy in 1968. He played professional football for 10 years before retiring in 1979.

By MARY JAMES Sentinel Correspondent SANTA CRUZ An AIDS ballot initiative proposed by supporters of Lyndon Larouche was blasted by Santa Cruz City Councilman John Laird at a press conference this the 82 ballots counted today, outpoll-ing Oaks by a two-to-one margin. Both Mehl and Oaks drew encouragement from today's vote count. Mehl, 36, called her overall showing a "good basis" from which to launch her fall campaign. She also discounted a claim by Gartner that Oaks' campaign had gotten off to a slow start and was gaining momentum by election day. "Everyone thinks Russ Oaks started very late in the campaign, but he was out walking (precincts) when I was," Mehl said.

"He started campaigning very early; he did five direct mailers I did one. "There was a lot of campaigning going on that people weren't aware of," said Mehl, suggesting that Oaks cent); Oaks, 1,557 23 percent): Hall, 1,518 (22.4 percent); Jack Edsberg, 490 7.2 percent). Slightly more than 47 percent of the district's 14,380 registered voters cast ballots in the election. About two thirds of the votes counted today were absentee ballots turned in at the polls on election day. Today's results bore out a prediction by Oaks' campaign consultant, Gary Gartner, that the late absentee ballots would break more in Oaks' favor than those cast before June 3.

While Hall bested Oaks two-to-one in the initial absentee count, Oaks out-polled Hall three-to-two in the ballots counted this morning. There was even more good news in the final results for Mehl, however. Mehl garnered 47 (57 percent) of GflffT TOE Way We Do Business!" r- i am. uu SI morning "Voters should not surrender our health policy to fear," said Laird. The Larouche proposal would re- quire reporting people carrying the AIDS virus to the Department of Health Servies and applying quaran- tine and isolation statutes and regu-1 lations to carriers.

Backers of the amendment have submitted more than 700,000 signatures to Secretary of State March Fong Eu. She has until June 24 to check the signatures to determine if it will appear on the November ballot. Eu had to issue a reprimand to initiative supporters for harassment during signature col- lecting, according to Laird. "The initiative implies that a quarantine of AIDS patients woud be a valid medical response, which it is not," Laird said. "The health policy-making ap-Z paratus currently in place has done well so far," said County Public Health Officer George Wolfe.

He I questioned whether the public should take over responsibility for setting health policy. The California Medi- cal Association has come out against the initiative, according to Wolfe. "The initiative has been called Briggs 2 by some people, and I think it will be similar in that it will be defeated," said Laird. He added that a campaign against the initiative by well-informed Californians might i force more public discussion of AIDS and hopefully will discredit Larouche and his backers, said Laird. Laird said he is pleased with what the federal government has done about AIDS so far, but that funds for further research and education and incentives for private pharma- ceutical companies to research potential vaccines are needed.

The Santa Cruz AIDS Project will hold a public forum from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday at Louden Nelson Center. Workshop topics will be Someone I Know Has AIDS, Women and AIDS, Safe Sex, Update on Medi- cal Information, and Political and Social Issues. For further infor- mat ion, call 458-4999.

The pulse can be felt in several arteries that lie near the surface of the body.

The first thing that the doctor discovers, is simply the condition of the arteries themselves. This determination can be made on the basis of whether all the pulses are present and normal. It is particularly important to determine if the pulses in the legs are pfesent. The arteries in the legs are most liable to atherosclerosis, a narrowing due to fatty deposits. If there is discrepancy between the heart rate and the pulse, it may indicate that some beats are too weak to be transmitted along the arterial system.

This suggests heart trouble. When was your last physical examination? Don't wait for illness or pain to occur before seeing a doctor. Preventive care is important for your continued well-being.
