Within days, smell

and taste begin to im-

prove and the cough-

starts to disappear. More
important, lung function

as measured by
breathing tests improves
within weeks.

“And, if you stay off
cigarettes long enough,
you can return to the
same risk category for
‘lung cancer and heart at-

smoker.”’

TORONTO (CP)
Girls are greater targets
for child abuse than boys
and more mothers than
fathers do the abusing,
research by Frank
Graves of Ottawa shows.

His findings are borne
out by cases reported to
Ontario's child-abuse

“k The.
Scotia civil servant said

{three to seven children)
and during the first three
months of the year,
Graves said in an in-
terview Wednesday.

‘former Nova

children‘ between the age
of three months and three
years are the most
abused.

Graves said that while

‘fathers tend to abuse

their sons more than
daughters, mothers
rarely abuse their sons.

Catherine McLean, a
social worker involved in
the childabuse program
of the Ontario ministry of
community and social
services, said one reason
why girls are more likely
targets of abuse is that
boys still tend to be
valued - slightly higher.

BEAR FAMILY NAME
“Boys bear the family

name and perpetuate the

name,’’ she said.

The Ontario  child-
abuse register shows that
in 1973 and 1974, 51.6 per
cent of reported cases
involved girls, Miss
McLean said.

Child abuse involving
youths 13 and over in-
volved 122 females and 47
males. The large number
of females abused re-
flects sexual abuse, she

said.

In the same period, the
registry shows mothers
accounted for 33.3 per
cent of reported child
abuse and fathers for 31.1
per cent.

The study by Graves
consisted of a review of
relevant literature, in-
terviews with six
physicians and 24 social
workers and a review of
cases recorded in the
Nova Scatia Child Abuse

Registry.
