The purpose of this study was to generate theoretical and policy suggestions on the policy for elderly welfare by comparatively analyzing factors related to life satisfaction for the male and female elderly. The survey subjects were 403 people over 60 years old who lived in J city of Gyeongsangnam-do Province, with 214 male elderly and 189 female elderly participants. Factors, that commonly had aninfluence on life satisfaction in the male and female elderly included subjective health level and subjective economic level. A gender difference was apparent among the male and female elderly for the male elderly, age had a primary influence on life satisfaction. However, for the female elderly, academic background, religion, and frequency of contact with children had a large influence. Accordingly, the female elderly were seen to be influenced more by environment than the male elderly. This study will help to generate a comprehensive understanding of diversity among the male and female elderly, contribute to improving diverse elements in the environment and to laying out a plan an elderly welfare policy that will increase life satisfaction among the male and female elderly, and offer implications for further research that will be conducive to understanding the differences between male and female elderly people.

The power and scale of 950 hPa typhoon "Maemi" which struck the shore of Gosung in Kyungnam Province was same as that of 951 hPa typhoon "Saraho" in 1959. For the purpose of getting the safety of training ship "KAYA", we anchored at Jinhae Bay with riding at two anchors paid out 8 shackles of cable respectively. By the way when wind force being over 30m/s, we could not keep the safety of the ship "KAYA" by means of the holding power of an anchor only. Just by using the main engine moderately, we were able to maintain the security of the ship. The holding the main engine moderately, we were able to maintain the security of the ship. The holding power of an anchor according to the way of anchoring, the quality of sea bottom, the direction and speed of wind and current, and the length of an anchor cable were analyzed. The obtained results are summarized as follows : 1. When riding at two anchors rather than lying at single anchor we could get a good holding power. 2. There was a big difference in holding power according to the quality of the bottom. 3. It would be best anchoring in a soft mud area than in any other place as possible. 4. It would also be desirable to set anchor shackles much more than equipment number prescribed in regulation in order to get safety of a ship providing against typhoon.

This study deals with the petrographic examination of aggregates(ASTM C 295) which is one of the methods to diagnose the quality of aggregates for concrete artifacts. A number of examinations including size and sieve analysis, test on the coating material, description of the weathering and contamination condition, petrographic description, and qualitative and quantitative analyses on the rocks and minerals potential to alkali-aggregates reactivity are carried out to examine the quality of aggregates. Petrographic description method examined on the fluvial aggregates from Maewhacheon A, B area, Uljin-gun, Kyungnam province shows that weathering grade ranges from F(fresh) to WS(slightly weathered) and coating material and contamination are not in a harmful condition. The weight percentage of the alkali-aggregates reactive minerals or structurally unstable rocks of the aggregates from study area covers 26% and 19% of all aggregates, respectively. So it is necessary to further identify their quality through the chemical(ASTM C 289) and mortar-bar method (ASTM C 227).

Hantaan virus is widely distributed among rodent populations in Korea. Two antigenically distinct hantaviruses were isolated from Apodemus agrarius in 1976 and Rattus norvegicus in 1980 in Korea. This study was designed to investigate the serological evidence of hantavirus infection among indegenous wild rodents, which were captured in 11 mountains located in Kyunggi, Kangwon, Chungnam, Chunbug and Kyungnam province of South Korea. A total 252 wild rodents of 3 species were trapped from Myungsung Mt., Chumbong Mt., Kali Mt., Hansuk Mt., Chachil peak, Kyebang Mt., Odae Mt., Kyerong Mt., Kaya Mt., Togju Mtand Chiri Mtin 1997. Serologic test for hantavirus infection was performed using hantavirus antigens by indirect immunofluorescent antibody techniqueAmong 122 Apodemus agrarius, 88 Apodemus peninsulae and 42 Eothenomys regulus; 18 A. agrarius (14.8%), 12 A. peninsulae (13.6%) and 4 E. regulus (9.5%) were immunofluorescent antibody (IFA) positive against hantaan virus. IFA titers 3 Eothenomys regulus sera were higher against puumalavirus than hantaan virus. These data imply that above three species of rodent might be natural reservoirs of hantaviruses in Korea.

This study was conducted to elucidate the pathogenesis of Aujeszky's disease virus(ADV) by histopathologic examination. The first Korean ADV Isolate, which was isolated from piglets with clinical signs of Aujeszky's disease in Yangsan(YS) county, Kyungnam province, was inoculated into 32 days old piglets with a dose of $10^{5.9}$$TCID_{50}/ml$ through intranasal or intramuscular route. These piglets were sacrificed at intervals of every 24hrs for 8 days. The virulence of YS strain was determined by the observation of clinical signs, gross findings, and histopathologic changes in tissues. The virus recovery test was performed from brain, spleen, lung and tonsil in cell culture. The pathogenesis of YS strain was determined by the observation of histopathologlc lesions in CNS and neuronal tracts. The major clinical signs were fever, anorexia, dyspnea, constipation, tremor, ataxia, circling movement, hindleg paralysis and salivation. The clinical signs were more severe in piglets of the group inoculated intranasally than those of the intramuscularly inoculated gorup. Lymphocytopenia was detected on day 5 to day 6 postinoculation (PI). The ADV was recovered from the tissue homogenates of tonsil, lung, spleen and cerebrum in cell culture. The highest virus titer was detected from tonsil between day 6 and day 7 PI. Reddish sublobar consolidation foci were scattered in the apical and cardiac lobes of lung. Although yellowish necrotic foci were detected in tonsil and liver, hemorrhagic lesions were mainly observed in heart, kidney and lymph nodes. Histopathologically, degeneration and necrosis of nerve cells, nonsuppurative meningoe-ncephalitis, nodular gliosis and perivascular cuffings were observed in CNS. Multifocal fibronecrotic foci were observed in lung, liver, lymph nodes and spleen. The major pathologic changes were detected in the midbrain, pons and medulla oblongata. Eosinophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies were mainly observed in epithelia and /or macrophages of tonsil, liver, lung, spleen and submandibular lymph nodes, and neurons of brain, respectively. Observation of viral particles at various stages of replication were possible from the endothelial cells of the alveolar capillaries and tonsillar crypt epithelia by transmission electron microscope.
