BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Editor | Marshall, ROCHESTER, Minn.—A woman's skin is much more sensitive to | pain than a man’s. This is proven by a new pain meter developed at the Mayo | Clinic. Testing sensitivity to pain | in humans has been almost im- possible, because some people! |imagine they are sensitive and others glory in being tough, | The new meter was tried on 230 persons. All thought they were| | e eiving ordinary blood pressure | but inside the band which| is wrapped around an arm to take blood pressure was concealed a |metal grating. | As the band tightened, the grai- mg pressed the skin. Ultimately each person objected that some-| thing was hurting. Nearly all the women felt pain while the pressures ranged between 90 and 120. Most of the men did not sense pain until between 150 and 180. A large group of the men did not feel pain until the pressure| passed 270. One woman reached 240, Fat, which had been thought to have some effect on sensitivity to pain, made no difference. Neither did age. .~ |HELP AN ALASKAN Telephone 713 or write Alaska Territorial Employment Service | for this qualified worker, STENOGRAPHER — Woman, single, age 26, High school and business college education.
