Dr. Louis N. Kate of Michael Reese Hospital. Chicago, reported evideaoe that life- expectancy for people who survive an initial attack of "myocardial infarction" is longer, on the average, than lias previously been believed, even such people may have sub- attacks.

Myocardial infarction involves the "death" of an area of heart muscle as a result of loss of blood supply to that area. The loss of blood supply is, in turn, due to a clot in the "blood vessel supplying the area. doctor also said that a study by himself and two associates- Doctors David R- Cole and Evelyn B. -showed that among the group of patients they studied, almost two out of three who survived an initial attack were able to return to moderate or complete activity, at least for a time. Records Studied He said records were studied on 460 patients who suffered their first attack sometime during the decade 1932-1942.

Among these, 285 survived that first attack. The "follow up" studies were done on these 365 until death, or, in the case of survivors, until 1952 when the study ended. Of the 285. two-thirds were found to have lived over five years, two- liftfas over 10 years and one-tenth ever 15 years. At the end of the study, 89 of the 285 were still alive and they had lived 14 years on the average.

Most of the deaths were due to heart disease. Dr. Eatz, in his prepared report, did not specifically state what previous estimates of life, expectancy for such cases were, but he declared in summing up his re'port: "The life expectancy following from the first attack of BUBDETTE SENIORS REHEARSE Shirley Bevill, Emma Perkins Epperson, Peggy Lloyd, Billy Lutes and Jack McDermott go through one of many trying situations in Burdette senior class play, "Everything Happens to Us."

For the week ended Wednesday, Dun Bradstreet estimated retail sales to be four to eight per cent lower than a year ago when Easter fell on April 5.

This year Horse Hitches Return CHICO, Calif. the old iron hitching posts of the horse and buggy Many of the older homes still have them. Owners of new homes are buying the posts and installing them on their curbs no one knows just why. Easter is April 18, and merchants predict the traditional Easter rush plus lowered prices resulting from the excise tax cuts will bring a sales boom. The Dun Bradstreet report was for the week that ended the day before the tax cuts went into effect.

Since then, spot surveys bring reports from some merchants of a noticeable pickup in sales of items on which taxes were reduced although, as one put it, "they aren't breaking the down." The reductions in retail excise taxes, such as those on luggage, jewelry and furs, were effective immediately. There was some delay in many cases on retail price reductions on items such as home appliances on which the tax is at manufacturers' level. A lowering of federal support prices for butter brought price cuts of five to 10 cents a pound around the country. But wholesale food prices, as measured by Dun climbed to a new alltime high and to 17.4 per cent above a year ago. The unemployment picture also remained clouded, although the decline in jobs appeared to be leveling off.

The Census Bureau said unemployment in March reached 3,725, 00(f for a gain of 54,000 over February. Among other economic indicators freight carloadings declined slightly, soft coal and crude oil production both were down a little, and electric power output dropped fractionally.

Supply Base For Support Price Urged PALM BEACH, Fla. price supports based on supply as as parity are recommended by C. C. Hohenburg of Selma, president of the Atlantic Cotton Association. "We can ill ailord to continue to pile up huge surpluses at the frightening rates of the past two years," he said yesterday at the association's 31st annual convention.

"Farmers can ill afford to give up markets or lost opportunities for cotton markets when there is a bright future on the horizon. I am confident that consumption of cotton can be expanded instead of restricted if our course is He told some 300 cotton men from.
