WASIDNGTON (NEA'l - In this p1ll-happy culture where
drugs are often consumed as casually as candy, what you don't
~ know can hurt you .
That 1s the thoroughly sensible conclusion of the federal
• Food and Drug Administrahon, which believes patients have
both a right and a need to know a good deal more than they currently do about drugs prescribed for them by physicians.
The FDA is currently m the process of expanding the
number of drugs and medical devices for which "patient
package inserts" will be required.
Such "PPis," as they are known m med1cal Circles, are infonnatwnal brochures or Ieanets written in simple language
and distributed with a drug each hme 1t is dispensed to a patient. They typically include information about the appropriate use of a given drug, correct dosage and durahon of
use, storage conditions, expected benefits and possible side effects or risks associated w1th the medlcahon.
Patient package 1nserts are nothing new. They have been reqUired by FDA for anywhere from .one to 10 years for a handful
of products ranging from an astluna control aeros9I to birth
control p11ls and intrauterme devices.
But as FDA moves to require PP!s for more and more drugs,
it is encountering a certain amount of hand-wringing and footdragging from both the medical profession and the pharrhaceutical industry.
Crillcs fret that patients who learn of potentially dangerous
or unpleasant side effects from a prescribed drug m1ght be
discouraged from takmg needed medication. Some also
suspect patients Will start unagmmg adverse reactions where
none exist - much the way second-year medical students are
famous for expenencmg symptoms of every deadly disease
they are studying.
Physicians and pharmacists also fear some patients wiU use
mformation in the PPis to start treating themselves Ior
friends with similar symptoms) with leftover prescription
medicine.
There 1s muttering, as well, about the cost of prepimng and
distributing package inserts, and about the difficulty of explammg the relabve risks and benefits of a drug in language
simple enough for the average pal1ent to understand.
Advocates of PPis, on the other hand, contend they w11l
slgmflcantly Improve pat1ent comprehensiOn of, and complumce w1th, drug treatment presCribed by doctors.
Far too many doctors s1mply hand a patient a hastily scribbled prescriptioh Without the slightest attempt to explain what
the medicine is, how it works, what its side effects might be or
what altemabve drugs m1ghl be available for the same ailment.
Patients who are told in writmg why it IS important to Weep
takmg a drug eve~ after symptoms disappear might well con·
tmue their medication more faithfully, which can be especially
important for certain chrome conditions.
Ful'thertnore, package mserts can help patients distinguish
between corrunor!, expectable s1de effects that can safely be ignored and more senous adverse reactiOns that should be
reported promptly to their doctors.
There IS another potential ramification of PPls that FDA officiills hope for and some doctors fear. They might just deter
physicians from indiscrmunate prescription of over-used
drugs such as antibiotics for treahnent of conunon colds
In fact, antibiotics - along with frequently abused tranquilizers like Valium -will probably be high on the FDA list
for new pabent package insert reqUirements, along with
medications for certain chrome colldlllons hke hypertension.

Such was not the case, however.
It seems the snow-&amp;'OOters

Some years back, well before the unravelmg of such homegrown mysteries as Watergate made local reporting not only
respectable but glamorous, a popular criticism of the
American press was its alleged predilection for
"afghanistanism."
This was defined by the critics, typically academically based, as a tendency of newspapers to focus editorial attention on
far-away developments, overlooking matters of greater immediate concern occurring ip their own front yards.
Afghanistap, from an Am~rican point of view, be1ng about as
remote a dateline as one could come up w1th.
It still is, geographically. And as recent events all too vividly
demonstrate, it still is a focus of press attention.
'
The murder of the American ambassador, which at first
shock might have appeared a logical extension of the chaos In
neighbonng Iran, turned out to have no connection. Or maybe
1t does.
The fatal abduction was the work of conservative Moslems
of the Shiite sect, opposing the pro-Soviet Afghan govermnent
which came to power in a bloody coup last April. The fact that
the American r"dlher than the Soviet ambassador was chosen
as sacrificial victim for this local feud may say something
about the relative prestige of the super powers even in a Soviet
ally, but we certainly did not need to hear it this way.
The Shiites, as we have been informed repeatedly m recent
montha, are dominant In Iran. Theirs is the revolution that toppled the shah. They are the guerrilla opposition to the leftist
regime In largely Sunm Afghanistan. So there is at least that
connection.
Not many months ago, few Americans knew the difference
between a Shlite and a bedsheet, let alone a Sunni. Or c~:red.
Many may still wonder why they should care, in what way it
matters to them.
It does. The chaos in that part of the Moslem world, however
complex the origins and alien to American concepts it may be,
has consequences that are as clos~ to this country's immediate
mterests as the gas station at the comer. It is in the process of
determming what the price of a gallon for American drivers
may be in the very near future, and conceivably in the worst of
scenarios even the availability of gas at any price.
No wonder, then, that datelines from these remote regions
are dominating the pages of Ame •~ean newspapers. If this be
•aghanistanism,' however, 1t 1s not of the once~riticized
stripe. The lntenneshlng Interests of the world's disparate
peoples and cultures in recent decades has given It new meaning.
Afghanistan and Iran are still geographically distant. But
when it comes to the impact of their turbulent affairs upon the
concerns of Americans, they ]lave moved in right next door.
Grounded carpets
In curtailing the supply of oil, the Iranian turmoil figuratively has pulled the rug out from under energy-addicted
Americans.
It's also doing it literally to a well-heeled few of us. Until the
revolutionary dust settles and the weavers go back to their
looms, the supply of Persian rugs is expected to dwindle. Importers in major U.S, cities are reported expecting prices,
already averaging well into the thousands of dollars per
respectable rug, to zoom as competition developa for quality
carpets.
One solution to both fuel and floor~overing problems does
come to mind - flying carpets But there has been no indication as yet trult the Ayatollah Khomeini is including them in his
plans for a return to Islamic basics.

Three-way tie for Big 10
championship is possible
By JOE MOOSIIIL
AP Sports Writer
One of the tightest races m
Big Ten basketball history
wmds up thLS weekend w1th
the possibility of Michigan
State, Iowa and Ohio State
fintshlng in a three-way tie
for the championship.
Michigan State, ranked No
4, Iowa No. 11 and Ohio State
No. 17, all have 12-4
conference records and do
not face each other in the
final two games of the season
tonight and Saturday.
If all three sweep their remaining two games, they
would end up in the first
three-way tie In modern Big
Ten history and first since the
1934-35 Ill!aiOII when IllinOIS,
Purdue and Wisconsin shared
the Iitle.
In the event of a first-place
tie involving Michigan State,
the Spartans would get the
Big Ten's automatic NCAA
tournament bid by VIrtue of
having defeated both Iowa
and Ohio State twice.
In case Iowa and Ohio State
wind up in a l1tle tie, Iowa
would get the bid. The two
teams split their season
series, but the Hawkeyes
would have the better allgames record, which is the
second tie-breaker.
The Big Ten undoubtedly
will send two teams to the
NCAA, but the team w1th the
automatic b1d gets a firstround bye in the playoffs.
There IS no formula for
detennm1ng the second team.
That 's up to the NCAA
selection committee.
Michigan State and Iowa
are strongly favored to win
their final two games. The
Spartans, who have won nine
straight games, including
road contests at Ohio State
and Iowa, wind up the season
at Minnesota tonight and at

at peast one game
After the two B1g Ten
representatives in the NCAA
are detennined, conference
teams will cast eyes at the
National Invitational
Tournament, to wh1ch the B1g
Ten cou ld send two or
possibly three teams.
Purdue appears to be a
cinch for an NIT berth along
with one of the three leaders
who doesn't get an NCAA bid.
Another NIT longshot could
be Indiana if the Hoosiers win
their final (w6 games against
Purdue and IllinOIS and finish
the season at 11-7 m the

Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (API Along the nation 's interstare
and prunary hoghways there
are 197,791 signs and
bollboards the government
would like to get rid of and
10,608 junkyards it would like
to see screened. But some
states aren't cooperating,
and even if they did, Uncle
Sam hasn't got the money to
pay lor the removal.
As a result, America's
highway beautifica tibn
program , launched with
fanfare in 1965 by President
Lyndon Johnson and his wife,
Lady Bird, is in trouble.
President Carter didn't inelude a penny for the
program in liis fiscal 1980
budget, after earmarking
$13.1 million for it this year.
Richard W. Moeller of the
Feder a 1 · Highway
Adminitration said the Office
of Management and Budget
decided not to seek funds in
1980 because it wanted a
complete.teassessment of the
program. ·
"We're contemplating a
series of public hearings on
the program, and we hope
soon to appoint an advisory
committee to analyze and
give direction ," said Moeller,
chief of the -agency's
junkyard and o,lltdoor advertising branch. "The committee-would include industry
representatives, environmentalists, highway users,
consumers and others."
He said the lack of 19M
budget money doesn't mean
the project will come to an
immediate halt.

I

·
"We have about~ mlllioo
in the pipeline in some form
or another, mostly funds that
have been allocated to states
for the removal of outdoor
advertising signs and the
screening of junkyards," h~
said. "Some states could
operate for five years with
money already alloted to
them; others don't have
much."
Moeller said that in 1978
states asked for $52 million
lor highway beautificatioo,
"but I had only $9.5 million to
give out."
The concept started in 1958
as a voluntary program, with
states receiving an incentive
of·one-luil! of one percent of
their federal highway funds if
they controlled advertising
signs within ·sso feet of
interstate highways.
But only about half the
st~tes participated, and in
1965, prodded by Johnson and
his wife and over the

Suit disnii.ssed

U. S. District ·Judge
Charles H. Haden II has
signed an order dismissing a
suit filed by four members ·of
United Steelworkers Local
5868 against the international
union.
Charles E. McDowell,
Frank West, E. C. Richard
and Joe Vannest had wanted
the federal court to set aside
an 18-month suspension
imposed
by the
International's executive
board.
The four members, employees at the Kaiser
Aluminum Chemical Co.
plant in Ravenswood, were
suspended from the union
after reportedly being found
guilty of violating the international union;s constitution.
On Feb. 14, iudge Haden
refused
to
issue
a
preliminary injunction
temporarily reinstating them
so that they would he eligible
to run for local office in April.
In dismissing the suit,
Haden held that the plaintiffs
were afforded their rights of
due process in that the
members were permitted to
appeal their case and
received the proper revlew in
accordance with the International's rules. The jurist
also noted that there had been
no violation of federal
statutes .by the defendant.

Many schools have been
closed at least 11 days over
that allotted five day period.

By The Associated Press
The Ohio River began to recede slowly today, and some
residents along its banks in
southwestern Ohio and
northern Kentucky were
returning to their homes to
survey the damage caused by
the high waters.
Upstream, · in the southeastern Ohio comm.unities of
P.omeroy, Marietta and
Gallipolis,' floodwaters had
.receded enough for residents
to start deanup operations.
· The river stage at
Cincinnati is expected to drop
to 57.4 feet by Saturday.
Forecasters had predicted
the Ohio would crest today in
Cincinnati at 59.5 feet, but the
highest it reached was 58,6
feet Thursday morning,
6ecause less water than
expected flowed into the river
from its tributaries to the
north and east.
The fiver is not expected to
fall below Its Cincln!lati Rood
stage of 52 · feet until early
Monday morning, the Ohio
River Forecast Center
predicted.
In New Richmond, 122
people were housed Thursday
night at a Red Cross shelter,
but local authorities already
were beginning to think about
the aftermath of the flood.
"We are working with the
state Disaster Services
Agency to assess the
damage," said Kenneth
Conover of the Clermont
County Disaster Services
Agency. "We'D meet with the
mayor and other officials to
see what course to take."
Almost 100 miles of U.S. 52
remained closed from Cincinnati eastward to Portsmouth,
the Ohlo Department of
Transportation reported.
Travelers were advised to
use Ohio 125 instead. Officials
said U.S. 52 could remain
closed until Sunday.
The Red Cross closed
shelters in Dayton, Ky., and
Cincinnati Thursday, but
reported 24 people still were
housed in Newtown. Red
