-Before Mel Brooks became a self-in-
dulgent delicatessen vaudevillian, he
managed to make a pair of hysterical
movies. The Producers, starring Zero
Mostel and Gene Wilder, is an exercise
in controlled lunacy and outright bad
taste, featuring the All-American movie-
musical send-up, "Springtime for Hit-
ler," featuring the unsurpassed antics of
Dick Shawn. A-. The Twelve Chairs is a
good deal more artificial, but neverthe-
less, an enjoyable escapade through Rus-
sia, starring Ron Moody and"Frank Lan-
gella who are searching for buried treas-
ure in a matching set of dining room
chairs. B
Slaughterhouse-Five-(Mediatrics, Nat.
Sci., 7:30 & 9:30)-The Vonnegut classic

tive zombies, who have an appetite for

tics, whose intense histrionics provide the
much-needed comic relief. 'A genuine

for the whole family. A+

Oscar for his portrayal of a New Jersey

tion that sports a stellar cast including.
Karl Malden, Rod Steiger and EvmMarie
Saint. A+. Brand burst into stardom i
the screen adaptation of the role he cre-
ated in Tennessee Williams' Streetcar

performance is beautifully countered by
Vivien Leigh's delicate nervosity and
pathos. A+
Theatre of Blood-(Ann Arbor Film Co-

Hepburn usually grates my nerves, and
Spencer Tracy usually just sits there, but
they both manage to liven-up this story
of a husband-and-wife law team, each on
different sides of a murder case. Judy
Holliday scores big in her first featured
role as the daffy murderess. B+

The c
By MARTHA WASHBURN
DIETING, A MOST popular pas-
time, has received increasing
attention ever since Twiggy convin-
ced us that skinny is chic.
But is a 5'6" person who weighs
only 60 pounds chic, or the possiblee
victim of a rare syndrome called
anorexia nervosa?
Dr. Paul Durkee, a doctor of in-
ternal medicine at the University
Health Center says anorexic pati-
ents either don't eat save for min-
ute-quantities or they eat and then
vomit automatically or by self-in-
ducement.
The term anorexia itself means
the restrkction of food intake. "Pa-
tients offer various rationaisations
ranging from disgust reactions to
specific foods to fear of choking on
food, to fear of vomiting after eat-
ing," reads the Psychiatric Diction-
ary by Leland E. Hinsie, MD. and
Rogert J. Campbell, M.D.
ARhough the condition usually
occurs in females aged 9-17, it has
occurred in women in their early
20's and in males as well.
Dr. William Kirk, a psychiatrist
and the director of Yorkwood Cen-
ter at Ypsilanti State Hospital, said
female anorexics exhibit weight less
(usually 30 per cent or more), an
inability to eat, and amenorrhea
(loss of menstrual periods). In
males, impotence is manifested.
"It's a life-threatening- situa-
tion," said Kirk. "Some patients
hide the food or flush it down the-
toilet." About ten per cent of the
patients die.
ANOREXICS REQUIRE combined
medical and psychological help,
according to Kirk who specializes
in the treatment of adolescents. A
dietician watches the patient's
weight while the psychiatrist tries
to solve- "stress problems."
Gaining weight is not enough, ex-
plained Kirk. The origin of the dis-
order is psychological-the causes
being many and complex-. In ado-
lescent girls, says Kirk, the prob-
lem may stem from the family
background. One or both of the
parents may eat or drink too much,

mpulsi
have ulcers or gastro-intestinal
problems. On another front, the
child may be engaging in a
"power struggle about food intake
that precedes the normal adoles-
cent stage of rebellion," said Kirk.
"Food is a manipulative- control is-
sue usually with parents."
THE HAWTHORNE CENTER in
Northville for mentally dis-
turbed children and adolescents,
has dealt with some 60 cases in its
20-year history - more anorexic
individuals than most institutidns
of its type.
According to Dr. Harold Wright,


on to
acceptance of their adult role as
female," Wright said. "They may
withdraw especially from t h e i r
group and maybe from their fam-
ily."
As a partial explanation to-the
phenomenon o f self-starvation,
Kirk said, "They- want to regress
to an earlier form of adaptation to
avoid developing sexual character-
istics. She is learning secondary sex
attitudes as she grows up and
wants to go back to where it's com-
fortable. "The anorexic wants to be
taken care of and by losing vast
amounts of weight, she retains her
child-like proportions. The adoles-

director and psychiatrist at Haw-
thorne, his anorexic patients have
ranged between 10-17 years old and
10-15 per cent are male.
"One quarter (of the patients)
induce vomiting or show interest in
bowel movements," Wright said.
"One third are preoccupied with
exercise ten times as much as nor-
mal." Increased physical activity is
a paradoxical facet of the anorexic
syndrome because extreme loss in
body weight normally induces body
fatigue.
Dr. Hilde Burch who is known in
the medical field for his research
on anorexia nervosa, noted in his
book Eating Disorders, that anorex-
ics may increase their physical ac-
tivity to burn off calories while
withdrawing from social activities
at the same time. Patients, charac-
terized as over-achievers concerned
with high grades, also show a sur-
prising lack of autonomy and self-
identity, Burch adds.
The girls have "difficulty in the

cent girls are afraid "of developing,
sexually." The patient really wants
to control her sex urges,. Burch
writes, so she controls her body
weight instead. Some anorexics ev-
en become hostile towards the op-
posite sex.
Wright said, "They need reassur-
ance that they're doing alright
from their mother. However, acute
cases may become pathologically
closer to either parent."
Wright said parents of anorexia
sufferers often also need psycho-
therapy, making family therapy the
preferred route. "It's shocking for
parents to watch their daughter or
son become a skeleton," he said.
INSUFFICIENT FOOD intake for
long periods of time can alter
a person's body chemistry so seri-
ously that he/she could become a
chronic invalid or even die. Howev-
er, 90 per cent of the cases, if treat-
ed early and thoroughly, will not
come to this end;
