Generally Impaired
Health Found On
Ladder To Success

CHI GA G O-Young men who
work their way up to managerial
positions were found to have poor
er health than executives who ster
into their jobs from college, a
study revealed recently.
The study, reported in the cur
rent July 29D Journal of the A.
merican Medical Association, was
made by Drs. William ~ Christ
enson and Lawrence E. Hinkle Jr.,
New York City.
Subjects of the study were 1879
men between the ages of % and
80, all Of whom were managerial
employees in the same corporation
with incomes of from $4,000 to
$4,000 a year
Fifty-five of the men were fairly
recent college graduates who had
been hired as managers in one
segment Of the company. The other
"a men were high school graduates
who had risen from the ranks.
The latter group displayed more
syndrOmes of many types, both "a
cute and chronic, the two physic-
ians reported. Although the vast
majority of these illnesses occur
ring during the year-long study
normally would not have come to
the attention of physician, they
said, these men were significant
ly more impaired by their illness
es."
Their estimated risk of death
from il / n s during the year,
though quite small, was distinctly
greater than that of the other
group" they said.
These young men also displayed
Significantly more of the signs
commonly thought to be indicative
of eventual high blood pressure
and hardening of the arteries as
we'll as premonitory signs of other
serious diseases.
Delving into the possible reason
for these findings, the authors
said. the greater amount of ill
ness displayed by the high school
graduates may have been an out
come of a greater number OF
physiological and psychological re-
actions to lifetimes OF more chal-
lenges and demands"
Although specifically the two
groups were different only in ed
ucation and in the way they had
attained their present positions. an
intensive study revealed many di-
vergencies in background.

With few exceptions. the college
Americans, the sons of managers
proprietors, and white-collar. work
ers, who had at least high-schoOl
education and often more, the re-
searchers said They had grown
up in families of middle to high
income, in medium to substantial
neighbOrhoOds, it was found
The other men were sons or
grandsons of immigrants. Their
fathers had been skilled and un-
skilled laborers, who had, on'the
average, grammar-school educat-
ion or less. These men had grown
up in modest to substandard neigh
borhoods in families of low income.
This meant that the college men
at present were living and working
in social environment with which
they had a lifetime of familiarity
while the high school graduates
were living and working in a diff
ferent social V r o n m t, one
which they perceived as new, un-
familiar, and full of challenges,
the authors explained
The life situations of the high
school graduates appear to have
presented many more challenges,
threats, and demands, the authors
continued.
They had married earlier, and
they had more dependents" they
said. They had more domestic,
financial, and interpersOnal diff
culties-more illnesses in the fam
lily, debts, domestic discOrd, depen-
dent relatives, and so on A few
more of them were holding jobs
in addition to their full-time jobs
many more of them were taking
vocational training; more were Tor
had BEEN attending college"
The study shows that there are
many factors involved in the in
teractiOn between man and society,
the researchers concluded. 1t en-
phasiZes the danger of linking any
one factor, such as physical activ-
ity, with any one disease, such as
hardening of the arteries, without
considering the potential role of
many other variables, they said
