The diet Is certainly the talk Of

Establishes Clinic
THAT ii exactly why The Times
has established It's free diet clinic
which holds its next sessions on
Wednesday from 10 3. ui. to noon

If the doctors think you are re-.
ducing at too fast pace, they
win alter the Hollywood diet for

How long must ! keep up this
dleting?" Is another persisten ques-
ton. Until you have regained your
n 3rniaI weight, unless because Of
your physical condition the doctor
has Indicated otherwise. Each clinic
visitor receives d diagnosis sheet,
which bears not only the weight
Of the individual at the time Of
examination, but also the normal
weight for d person Of the sex, age,
and height.
While dieting Ii ali important in
reducing, some kind Of exercise
also is quite essential. The medical
staff has discovered that 2 large
percentage of the clinic visitors take.
virtually no exercise. At future
clinics the nurses win seek detailed
information regarding what kind,
