C, Lehman, of the Department of Psychology, Ohio University, reports that if you are past 40 years of age, there are few fields of human endeavor in which you can succeed better than a younger man, Dr. Lehman prepared a paper to this effect recently for the Fifth An- nual Scientific meeting of the Gerontological Society, Inc. If you are over 40, the best you can accomplish, .ac- cording to Dr, Lehman, is as follows: Become an indus- trialist or commercial leader, with an annual income of $50,000 to $1,000,000 (at an average of 60-90); become president of an American college or university, (at an average of 52-54); become President of the United States (at an average age of 55-59) ; become an Ambassador (at an average age of 60-64); become a Senator (at an aver- age age of 60-64); become Chief of Staff of the Army (at an average of 60-64); become a Justice of the U. S, Su- Preme Court (at an average age of 70-74); or become Speaker of the U. 8. House of Representatives (at an ever- age age of 70-74). ‘ In addition to these possibilities, you might succeed as an architect or artist (average 40-44 years); as an au-| thor (average age 40-45); in ‘astronomy (average age of 89-44); or write light operas, musical comedies or can- tatas (atian average age of 40-44). sBr. Lohman mention’ a fed ether fields those over 40 might succeed in, which we will not go into here. Suffice it to say the statement that there are few fields of human endeavor in which those over 40 can succeed better than a /ounger man is a bit misleading. For, while younger men succeed in many fields, few of us would be disatisfied to become an industrialist, with an income between $50,000 and $1,000,000, an Ambassador, Senator, Supreme Court Justice, or even President of the United States, And, while younger men have the ability and strength to do a better job in most fields of endeavor, our society has tra- ditionally flavored older men with the highest and most honored official positions.
