Fad diets, special food prepa
rations and meal combinations
for quick weight loss may sound
glamourous, but they can also
become very tiresome. How
many people do you know who
have gone on a crash diet and
Immediately returned to their
old food habits and the un-
wanted pounds?
Crash diets encourage off-and
on-again weight gains and loss
es. They can be harmful if they
cause you to miss important
nutrients. in your diet.
A we'll balanced low-calorie
diet of foods you are used to
eating is the best way to keep
your health, vigor and alertness
as you lose weight and keep
it off. This is the best weight
reduction method for the per-
son who has been eating too
many rich cakes, pastries and
other sweets and leaving off
more nutrious foods.
Don't forget - a well ba-
lanced diet includes foods from
four basic food groups. These
are milk and milk products,
meat Or meat alternates, fruits
and vegetables and breads and
cereals. You need something
from each of these four groups
every day.

African Diplomats Eager To
See ALI The U.S.A.

WASHINGTON, D c., Aug
ust T., 1861 The United

is nard pressed to satisfy the
request of African diplomats
and official guests who want
to visit this country Strange
as It may seem Little Rock,
M n t & om cry, Birming-
ham and New Orleans are
some of the most requested
cities by visiting Africans.
In the case of diplomats
and VIPs this presents only
a small problem because
their dress. and passport, plus
the atchful eye of the State
Department. provides them
with all the protection they
need. But when they d o f f
their native dress and go off
on their own, that is when
the problems really begin.
For a long time the official
position of the Voice of Amer
lea and the State Department
seemed to be Don't believe
a word, it is just communist
propaganda" but fhe num-
Der of reported insults have
become too numerous to ig-
more - so now the position
has changed to, Eyes! we
have our problems, but we
are working hard to correct
them" This argument takes
substance when told by Rob-
