Snow-shovelers
warned by AMA
it's explained, it is not necessary to tense the diaphragm
and abdominal muscles, There
consequently is no significant
increase in pressure within
the chest cavity or increase in
circulatory demand within the
heart walls,
Frequently, AMA says, the
problem with snow-shoveling is
aggravation of.an existing heart
condition. When such a condition
exists, breathing cold air while
under physical strain may cause
a spasm of small arteries serving the heart.
This usually: can be avoided
AMA advises, by wearing a cold
weather -mask or covering the
face with several layers of a
knit scarf, This permits warming of inhaled air before it reaches the lungs.
Even for the physically. fit,
CHICAGO As snow piles up,
so do related problems. Among
these every year is the collapse
of a number of snow-shovelers.
If you are sure that you're
physically fit, go ahead with the
snow-shoveling task, the American Medical Association: says,
But # there is any doubt,
AMA suggests: Get the job done
some other way, Hire someone,
or use power equipment,
It is much less expensive
to employ these alternatives
than to risk health impairment
or death, AMA emphasizes.
Even if you are physically fit,
AMA notes, it is safer to use a
small shovel, . filling it only
partly, If possible, it also is
better to push the snow rather
than lift it.
By thus lightening the load,
DFG says watch
your shooting
A rash of accidents involving
hunters shooting at low-flying
birds prompted the Department
of Fish and Game today to warn
hunters to be sure of: their —
field of fire and know where
they are shooting. \
Six accidents, one fatal, were
reported to the DFG in one week
between November 17 and December 1, all involving hunters
who were. shot by other hunters:
swinging on game.
Three of the accidents involved duck hunters and three
involved pheasant hunters, the
DFG reported. The. general
pheasant season ended December 8, but the duck season
continues through January 12,
Field wardens reported that
in each accident the hunters
ignored the basic rule of firearms safety that a hunter must
be sure of his field of fire
before he shoots,
All but one of the accidents
occurred at ranges of 10-50
yards, and the other between
50 and 100 yards. Three occurred in clear weather and
three in partly overcast weather,
Waterfowl hunting is at its
peak during the holidays, and
the DFG urges hunter to take
care that they: -and those
who hunt with them or near
them -don't become holiday
accident statistics.

big pulling power
it's suggested, the motto should
be: Easy does it. Especially
when there is a lot of snow
and a large area to be cleared,
do the job in stages, resting
periodically. 3 ;
Finally, AMA cautions, falls
also are a hazard for the snowshoveler. Footwear. that is not
likely to slip on icy surfaces,
and making sure of firm footing
before moving snow are important.
