ccivcd today from John Man.

In accepting her appointment
Mrs. MeareS said, 81 am glad to
oe a part of the nationwide org
.aniZation of volunteers who are
concerned with doing something
about the problem of heart dis
ease. 1t is a problem that comes
close to home"
Since so little is known about
the causes OF these heart ant
blood vessel diseases, we fee
our chief job is to support re-
search, which Is being carried
on nj medical centers in TIM:
state as well as elsewhere in the
country. Doctors say they neec
more knowledge about cause.
and cures as well as preventive
measures, to help their patti.
.ents."
ITO help doctors keep up with
the new findings that are com.
ing out of research, the NORTH
Carolina Heart Association will
supply us with scientific pub.
LEGATIONS and diagnostic aids
such as heart sounds on tape
which we will be glad to pro.
vide for any of our local physi.
clans who request them. There
are also pamphlets about many
different forms of heart dis.
case which doctors can Civ,
their patients, to help them und.
'erstand their conditions and co.
operate more fully with thei
physicians"
Another aim of the Heart AS.
ISOLATION is to inform the publ,
of the ho0cful facts about hear
