Junior League Head
Will Move Here
By ROBERTA HORNIO
Contributing Wrltor
The president of one of the
leading women’s organiza
tions in this hemisphere will
move to Washington short
ly when her husband assumes
a top Pentagon post.
As head of the Association
of the Junior Leagues of
America, Mrs. George W.
Vaughan oversees the civic
and volunteer activities of
some 70,000 women in the
United States. Hawaii, Can
ada and Mexico.
Since her election as presi
dent last May, Mrs. Vaughan
has operated principally
from her home in Los An
geles, with frequent trips to
the A.J.L.A. headquarters in
New York City. Now, how
ever, her husband has been
appointed legislative affairs
assistant to the Secretary of
Defense.
“I don’t know whether my
Job will be lighter from
Washington but at least it
will ease my travel load,"
the petite brown-haired
president reports.
While her husband was
here yesterday getting his
office set up, Mrs. Vaughan
was in New York tending to
her volunteer Job where she
will remain until Sunday.
Who’s Busy?
Mr. Vaughan, in leaving
here last night to see his wife
laughingly remarked: "Gee,
I had to make an appoint
ment to see her. She's busier
than I am.’’
The new Defense Depart
ment assistant will assume
his position March 16, but
Mrs. Vaughan and the family
will stay in Los Angeles until
this summer when their
daughter finishes her school
year. Merrie, 10, attends St.
Paul’s School in Los Angeles.
Their son, Bill, Jr., 14, is a
student at Lawrencevllle
Prep in New Jersey.
Los Angeles - bom Mrs.
Vaughan is a magna cum
laude graduate of Stanford
University, where she met
her husband. They were mar
ried shortly after they fin
ished school in 1940.
Local league members who
have worked with Mrs.
Vaughan report that she is
very modest about her own
activities and is more likely to
praise her family’s accom
plishments than her own.
However, the former Jean
Webb, who has a keen sense
of humor, has led an active
and eivle life.

WHY GROW OLD?
Blood Sugar Level
Influences Appetite
By JOSEPHINE LOWMAN
Rcfblrr and Tribune Syndicate
Modern research has
brought us several sugges
tions which are most helpful
in taking the pain out of
calorie counting.
For instance, our appetite
usually seems to be some
what influenced by the level
of our blood sugar. In other
words when the blood sugar
level fglls to what is called
"the fasting level’’ we are apt
to experience pangs of hun
ger and to feel weak.
Food raises the blood sugar
level and tests have demon
strated the fact that some
foods hold the sugar level at
a high point much longer
than others. In more than
one study it has been defin
itely established that a high
protein meal delays hunger
pangs longer than one which
is high in carbohydrate or
fat.
In one test the blood sugar
level dropped two hours after
the high carbohydrate meal
while after the high protein
meal the blood sugar did not
fall below fasting level until
six hours afterwards.
Eat Slowly \
So if you are on a reduc
ing diet, eat slowly so that
your blood sugar level has
time to rise before you age
tempted to take mother
helping. Also eat your protein
first. At dinner eat your meat
or fish and then your vege
tables and starches.
Studies have indicated that
1 in women 16 grams of pro-
•• Min in a meal fallh to main
tain the blood sugar level
: above the fasting level for
throe hours after eating
while 22 grams protein main
tains the blood sugar level
well above the fasting level
for three hours. This is one
reason for the high protein
reducing diet.
Eat slowly and eat your
proteins first if you must
watch your weight. Os course
you always have to count
calories, too, for a loss in
poundage. Most of you know
what the protein foods are
but I will review them today.
While other foods have pro
tein content the main ones—
those which are classified as
protein foods—are meat, fish,
fowl, eggs, cheese and milk.
If you missed my 9-Day
Reducing Diet, which gives
you a loss of from five to 10
pounds in ninp days, send 10
cents and a stamped, self
addressed envelope with your
request to Josephine Lowman
in care of this newspaper.
