entitled.
“The
Asian American: Caught in a
Media Massage.” Due to space
problems, I cannot reprint the
entire article, but with Karen’s
and Gidra’s indulgence. I will
try to excerpt it in a meaning­
ful way.
Medium (plural, media) means
a “middle state of degree ... an

intervening thing through which
a force or act is produced.”
Communications
media
(e.g.
television,
books,
advertising,
newspapers, films, etc.) are the
’’middle state’’ of reality. It is
the “intervening thing’’ through
which reality is produced. What
happens is a three dimensional
reality becomes a two or even
one dimensional image — called
a stereotype ...
But what about Asians ? We

Hibachi Can
Cause Death
Say Medics
CHICAGO. — Improper use of
hibachi and outdoor sril!
heating stoves can cause death, a
medical journal warned recently.
Charcoal can produce lethal
concentrations of carbon monoxi­
de in close quarters without good
ventilation, an article in the curent issue of the Journal of the
American
-Medical
ociation
savs.

It recounts the deaths of .10
persons, nine of whom had used
charcoal-burning equipment to
heat close quarters.

OPEN SUNDAY

When food is being cooked over charcoal indoors, the authors
say grease, smoke and other fu­
mes become unbearable and for­
ce the chef to provide ventilation.
“After the cookout, hovewer, a
hibachi containg warm and fla­
meless charcoal briquets may
produce a dangerous accumulati­
on of carbon monoxide if brought
indoors for heat,” they wrote.

The cases recounted involved
the use of charcoal to warm a
Volkswagen bus, a station wa­
gon, a trailer, an old potato cel­
lar, a tool shed, the cabin of a
boat, and a foxhole.
