Let me hasten to mention that the rhythm I am di~cussing has nothing to do Wliith .rock '.n' roll. It rather . has to do wi,tll a way of life. It may well be true that liv- Dean ing can be much Van Lare healthler and moce effective. if our hab;i.ts are 'l'hyt,hmic, eat, sleeio, e~erdse, STUDY, narp, and rei1ax, accord- ing to a self established · pattern. stick t9 fil!ds pattern, 'I)he rhy- thm ·is mo·re imvoritant Ulan the emphasis. For example ' seven hour l~e;p eve_ry n·ght. iS better than four one night and twelve the next. Five hours of study is every :day is better than eight and four. Rhythm during the age of most college young men and women (17-23) is important.
