PAGE 32 - WATERLOO CHRONICLE. WEDNESDAY. MARCH 19, A monthly review ot what's new on the newsstands in the month at April Paul Stuart Chronicle Special Science Digest may not be on every family's coffee table, but a good case could be made that everybody ought to read the April edition with its cover stories on health. Both the dangers of fast food and the facts and fiction of exercise are examined. The McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Arby's, Har- dee's, Big Boy and Popeye fast food chains come in for some strong criticism of trying their french fries in beef tallow - "the worst kind of fat." Tazewell Banks, Director of the Heart Station at the D.C. General hospital. says of the effect of the fast food restaurants on the health of children: It seems that more than a hundred U.S. scientists and deans of medical and public health schools have "signed a petition urging the chains to stop frying foods in heavily saturated fats and to start labelling their products' ingredients." And fast food lovers should bear this chilling news in mind: A Science Digest study by an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School found that "... the fatty acid profiles of McDonald's Chicken McNuggets and Filet-O-Fish and Burger King's Chicken Sandwich and Whaler resembled beef more than chicken or fish. And according to industry figures, Burger King's Chicken Sandwich contains 42 grams of fat - equivalent to a pint-and-a-half of Sealtest ice cream." "We're clogging up their arteries. If you hate your children, you tell them to play in the street. Not quite as bad, but in the same direction, if you hate your children send them to those fast food places." As for exercise, it seems that most people are still far too sedentary. And yet, despite improving health for those who jog or walk briskly up to 15 miles a week, "as people do more than that, the improvements slow way down," according to Dallas scientist Steven Blair. "We don't have any evidence that higher and higher levels of exercise offer greater and greater protection." Tennis star Carling Bassett: "With her blonde hair, long limbs, dynamite tan and a talent for wearing tennis whites like a second skin, Carling has the look of a Palm Springs princess." The winner of Chatelaine's Most Improved Award: Singer Anne Murray: “In '85 we lamented her inability to discover a fashion persona. In '86, she found it ... in Paris. The kid from Springhill, N .S., has abandoned her Las Vegas sequins and fur-lined parkas for Claude Montana's sumptuous leathers." The nominees for Worst Dresser of the Year include: CBC W3 David Suzuki: "A little variety in your wardrobe wouldn't hurt. Levi-Strauss didn't invent clothing single-handedly ... Join the 80s, Suzuki. Buy yourself an Armani suit." Chatetaine's Second Annual list of Best & Worst Dressed Canadians, is featured in the April isrye. _ . Governor-General Jeanne Sauve: She "has to look regal whether she's opening Parliament or talking to school kids. And nobody does it better - not even the Queen, who is real blue blood. Sauve's blood may be plain old proletarian red - but she sure looks good in imperial purple." Do you mean to say that 21 NHL teams have played that long, gruelling season just to wind up with the Edmonton Oilers facing off against the Philadelphia Flyers in the Stanley Cup final again this year? "iiiraisGiiartiie Gperts “Hockey News predict, in their specia1edition: Draft Preview ’WGIIlde to the Stanley Cup The Hockey News says the' Oilers "have proved often enough that a good offense beats a good defense and when it doesn't they will reluctantly rely on sound work back of the blue line. After losing 4-1 to Philadelphia in the Cup tlnal last year, the Oilers gave up just Mt goals in winning four straight. The supposedly suffocatingly strong Flyers' defence surrendered 20. - 'iGTfews praises the Flyers for their team's ability to "prove itself before every challenge ... They may not look unbeatable, but nobody look? a; good either." . ' "As for the Oilers being upset along the yellow brick road, it's happened only once in franchise history - the Los Angeles Kings' shocking victory in 1982 - along the way to compiling the best cumulative playoff winning percentage (.680) in the league. There is a strength of character to the Oilers that is unfairly obscured by enormous talent. They responded marvelously, for instance. to their opening game loss against the Flyers las season. Perhaps. the Oilers don't lose because they won't lose." John Huston made his first hit film in 1941 - The Maltese Falcon. After decades of many successful movies and a few flops, he struck gold again in 'trs with Prizzi's Honor, starring Jack Nicholson, Huston's daughter Anjelica and Kathleen Turner.
