Rocky Is Showing
Age 6 Whimsies

he ignores all dog food. He
wants people food, and he
will 60 hungry rather than
eat anything but cooked
scraps. Rocky weighs 85
pounds, so he needs a lot of
food.
By day. he divides his time
between checking the per-
sonalities of the house, and
going into the backyard.
There, he looks out through
a chicken wire fence, study
ing the habits of the silly
sea gulls, and trying to find
bones he buried. He is, ! am
afraid, absent-minded. He
buries q bone well, but he
cannot remember where it is
buried.
This dog can be left alone
In the house for a whole
day because he has learned
to turn a doorknob with his
teeth. Rocky let's himself out
to the backyard when he
wants. and he has mastered
the technique of letting him
self back in. by turning the
knob with his teeth, yank-
ing the door open, and sneak
ing his long body in before
the door check closes it.
THIS LEADS to the con-
clusion that we have some
funny looking doorknobs.
The teeth marks are so deep
that there isn't one knob
that can be called round.
However, when we are home
he seldom does 1t. He looks
at a member of the family,
whistles through his nose,
and makes a few false starts
toward the door.
This means "Open the
back door for me-" II we
ignore him long enough,
Rocky will do 1t himself.
However, he lowers his head
and ears and tail, and walks
slowly toward the back door
with that nobody-loves-me
expression. It's easier to get
up and open 1t for him.
One night we had our
friends DR.. and Mrs. Frank
Pignataro over to look at
movies. The screen is set in
front Of the back door. The
doctor watched Rocky 60 un-
der the screen, turn the
doorknob, and let himself
out. A little later, the dog
let himself back in. did you
see that?" the psychiatrist
whispered to his wife. "You
only imagined It," she said.

Isn't that beautiful? he
said at the end.
"'You agree with it?' asked

My dog Rocky is beginning
to age. He will be six in
March, which is the half
way point in the life of a
German shepherd. He is
staid, dignified, the pink
tongued yawning king of the
household. The black head
is handsome, the ears stand
ing and the head cooked to
listen. Still, signs of age are
present.
There are other signs.
When he was younger. If the
doorbell rang he emitted a
soft muffled woof. Today,
the same bell causes him to
run around Historically,
barking in a deep tone, as
though pressing the panic
button. Not only that. he will
also run right through some
one who is trying to answer
the bell.
Now, when grandchildren
come to visit, he worries
over the little ones, frets If
he catches them teetering on
the edge of a stairway, and,
if an infant cries, he runs
through the house like a
berserk Malayan. barking at
adults to do something.
HE'S A GOOD DOG. The
best. When someone offers
him a peanut, or a piece of
candy, he never snaps. The
mouth opens in slow motion
and he gets around the fin
gers without nipping them.
He permits children to slide
down his back when he is
sleeping. and they are al
lowed to yank his long
black tail or pull his ears.
But he sleeps more than
formerly. He follows me from
the dining room to the Of
flee, where he maps. back to
the bathroom, where he maps
outside the door. to the tele-
vision set, where he maps
without apparently hearing
or seeing. When I go to bed,
he remains awake outside the
door until he hears the light
SNAP off.
Then he heaves a big sigh,
and he drops like a safe from
a roof. He sleeps with the
eyes closed, and ears up. If
the oil burner in the cellar
goes on during the night,
his eyes open, the ears turn,
and he listens. Once he is
assured that this is a nor
NAL sound. he goes back to
sleep.
He has become so par
ticular about his diet that

Who does a fellow believe?
Mr.. w.
THE ANSWER is evident:
Believe your doctor and tell
your well-meaning neighbors
to go tend to their knittin'.
AS for blood thinners 1t
is true they have their in
dications. In many patients
they prevent complications
and are life-saving. Never
theless, 1t is not true that
they should be used in every
case of coronary thrombosis.
The final judgement should
be the doctors land o con-
sultant's, If necessary and
not the decision Of a friend
or neighhor.
When to return to work is
also a personal problem that
can be answered only after
a careful consideration of the
individual patient, his phys
ical and emotional condi-
ton, the type of Job he has
and many other factors.
In general, I believe that the
patient is better off getting
back to work as early as he
can with safety.

So many people who con-
slider themselves social drink
ers-who can handle aclohol
are closer to the brink of
chronic alcoholism than they
realize. 1t doesn't take much
to give such a one the shove
that will send him into the
depths. It's easier to slip
down than to crawl back up.
Therefore, I keep telling high
pressure businessmen, for ex-
ample, who say they can
handle three or four martins,
two or three beers, a half
dozen shots of scotch or
bourbon at night, and a few
more before bedtime - that
they'd better slow up before
it's too late. It's easier to cut
down from four martins to
two, than cut down from one
to none. And sometimes the
habit takes hold after only
a bottle or two of beer. For
example, consider this letter:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: l re-
call a friends life with her
husband. He broke doors,
threw dishes and broke any
new item that came into the
house. Later he drank much
more.
He was allowed to drink
beer in his parents home
when he was just a small
child-by the time he was 80
he was in his grave. Is it
possible that this type of per-
son is allergic to beer? That
it drives him crazy? The
thing that makes it so pitt
full is, that sober, this man
was one of the incest, kind
est men I ever knew.
\
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: It's
easy to get all mixed up if
you try to listen to what
your friends say. They can
make you lose faith in your
doctor-especially If you've
had an attack of coronary
thrombosis.
For example, my doctor is
not giving me blood thin
ners. So they say he's giving
me fashioned treatment.
One neighbor told me that
I shouldn't have gone back

Mediotors Standing By
In Newspaper Strike

NEW YORK, Jan. 81 (AP-.-
Federal, State and city medi-
ators stood by today for re-
newed efforts to settle the
printers strike that led to the
45-day-old blackout Of New
York's nine major newspapers.
No Joint meetings have been
scheduled, however. between
representatives of Local 6 of
the AFL-CIO International
Typographical Union and OF
the newspaper publishers.
Talks between the union and
the Publishers Association of
New York City, which repre-
sents the closed dailies, were
recessed last Wednesday.
The printers struck Decem-
Der 8 against the Times,
Journal-American, News and
World Telegram a. Sun. The
Post, Mirror, Herald Tribune,
Long Island journal and
Long Island Press shut down
voluntarily. The Press continues
to publish non-city edition for
suburban Long Island.
81 Million In Benefits
Nine unions are paying
nearly 81 million weekly in
strike benefits TO more than
$4,000 idle members, a survey
showed today. The amount is
about two-fifths OF their nor
NAL wages.
The benefits range from $50
for a single man with no de-
pendents 10 $l20 for others,
depending on the union.
Only the Deliverers Union
among 10 major unions af-
fected by the strike is paying
no benefits. It's $500 members
voted 10 go without strike pay
rather than borrow from their
pension fund.
