Theater Seeks
Court Decision
On Censorship

The legality of Marylands
moving picture censorship has
been challenged for the first
time in a test case brought on
by a Baltimore theater.
For the specific purpose Of
bringing the law before the
courts, the Rex Theater ran a
noncontroversial film last week
without submitting it to the
Motion Picture Censor Board
for approval. The theater oper-
ator, Ronald L. Freedman, was
fined $25 and costs in Baltimore
police court as the result of a
Censor Board complaint.
In filing an appeal to the
Maryland Court of Appeals, the
theater's attorney contended the
court action was interference
with the free flow of interstate
commerce, that it violated the
due process of the law and i'm
paired the rights Of free speech
and free press under the Con-
Stitution.

A proposal by the Montgom-

Greater Washington area or
elsewhere.
The move is currently under

cost of $4,000 year, some
$4,000 less than the total set
aside for the operation on a
governmental basis in the new
county budget. A decision on the
plan is expected soon.
A check of animal shelters in
the area shows that both Ar
lington County and the city of
Alexandria, in nearby Virginia,
have relied on private control
for a number of years. In Ar

People used to call it high
blood pressure. Today's med
ical nomenclature dubs it n.y.
pertension. More women suf-
fer from it than men, but
men develop more serious
cases than the distaff side
of the population.
In itself, high blood pressure
is not a disease, but a sign Of
something wrong. If it remains
at a high level for long period,
serious damage can be done to
the heart, the kidneys, and
other organs of the body.
Strokes can result from it,
many other things. You can't
play games with the condition.
1t can be a killer.
Causes of apprehension are a
medical mystery. M e d ic j
science knows that for some I'M
known reason the arterioles be-
gin to tighten up. The arterioles
are the small branches of the
arteries that carry the blood to
all tissues of the body. AS the
arterioles tighten, passsgeway
for blood becameS smaller and
the heart must work harder to
push the blood through to the
tissues. This builds un pressure.
If the struggle goes on too
long, walls of the blood vessels
lose their elasticity and become

The heart, however, Is a
tough, rugged organ and ar.
teries can stand tremendous
pressures. It's only when the
pressure remains high for a
long period of time that the
blood vessels tougher. There's
no sudden breakdown of the
arteries and the heart In high
blood pressure. There's time for
medical science to work
This year, because of the seek
ing-searching curiosity of NH
scientists and an accidental"
discovery in laboratories of the
National Heart Institute, a new
drug to benefit apprehension
sufferers reached the CONNER.
cial market. Bearing the trade
name "Aldomet' tMerck) and
introduced with little fanfare,
Heart Institute scientists see it
as "a valuable new addition to
the physicians arsenal of drugs
against high blood pressure"
The reason: Aldomet is rela-
lively free of the Objectionable
side effects produced by some
earlier drugs used for treatment
of apprehension. Some of these
were sexual impotence in males;
constipation; sudden unex-
pected falls in blood pressure
upon rising; over-sedation, and
uncomfortable dryness of the
mouth.
The accidental discovery at

powerful drug within reach of
