ey PR as _Castlégar News July 15, 1967 SWEAT IS BAD FOR YOUR SKIN By KIRK LaPOINTE Canadian Press No question about it: sweat is great for your heart, your lungs, your figure ahd your peace of mind. But it's not so great for your skin. Skin doctors say that failure to wash sweat from your body thoroughly after a workout can help generate or aggravate pimples, blackheads and acne. And washing incorrectly after a workout ean robe the skin of its moisture, leaving it irritated or too oily An increasing number of athletes are now taking skin i says Dr. Sharon Laughlin, a dermatologist at “They shower more and they can find it difficult to maintain their skin,” Laughlin says. “Exercise is hard on it.” PICK RIGHT SOAP Choosing which soap you use is particularly important if you'll be washing frequently. To avoid i ding the secretion of your skin's natural mositure, Laughlin and other skin experts advise you to use glycerin or lanolin-derived soaps regularly. They may not seem to do the job — you don’t get a great lather from them — but they clean the skin without leaving behind irritatns. Common supermarket brands are often a prescription for drier, rougher skin that can be made worse by your next sweat, Laughlin says. “It's much, ‘much better to buy a non-perfumed, super-fatty bar of soap. Avoid the scented, sudsy ones, for the most part.” A moisturizer is actually a misnomer. It doesn't really. make your skin more moist — it simply helps seal in the moisture that’s already there. Named wrongly or not, however, Laughlin and others advise frequent application on damp skin of moisture sealants containing such ingredients as petrolatum. Some newer brands even have traces of urea or lactic acid, things you lose through sweat. “You don't have to buy these fancy ones with aloe vera or vitamin E,” she says. “You'll get the same effect from one without them.” KEEP IT COOL It’s not just what you lather with or slather on, either. Athletes — or anyone who takes a lot of showers — should keep the water temperature down. “It's best to take cooler showers,” water tends to dry out the skin.” Exercise generates a lot of what skin doctors call “flushing and blushing,” surges of blood to the face that can sometimes rupture tiny blood vessels near the skin surface and leave blotchy marks. Summer presents a new series of problems for the athlete's skin. You sweat more and need a good washing to keep bacteria off the skin surface. But when exercising outdoors, you must protect yourself from sunburn and resultant drying of the skin. Watchmakers she says. “Hotter loan from mom.f VANCOUVER (CP) — The disabled mother of two stood screaming at loan officers in the middle of a bank. It was an act of utter frustration. “I made a scene,” said Kathleen Bell-Younger, who was disabled in a car accident and later developed a muscle- wasting disease. “I said $60 a month is two weeks’ food for my kids, and of choices be- tween paying you $60 and feeding my kids — I'm sorry, you lose,’ ” The bank was demanding she pay off her student loan, even though Canadian law allows that loans of those who become disabled be for- given. Bell-Younger is visibly disabled, but no one at the bank volunteered the infor- mation until she learned of the law herself and made a scene. “I was starving, but I was paying off my student loan because the bank didn't tell me,” said the single rhother of an 18-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son who has Down's Syndrome. Bell-Younger, 37, says such problems are common in'the day-to-day lives of disabled women who are raising chil dren alone. Her friend Mar. ion Brouwer, a multiple scler- osis victim for five years, agrees. Brouwer, 35, is raising her two daughters and her niece on welfare, disability and baby bonus cheques totalling $1,350 a month — $5,500 a year less than the poverty level for a family of four. She paid off $700 of a recent stu- dent loan before Bell-Young- er told her of the law. Despite being legitimately dying breed says Rugole TORONTO (CP) — Joseph Rugole, master watchmaker, “there will not be a sufficient number of people to replace smiles ruefully at the pun but he just can't resist it. “It's a small world we're dealing with,” he says Rugole, chairman of the watchmaking department at George Brown College. is re ferring to the world of tiny wheels and = springs and screws — a universe inhab ited by his students — but he knows he might just as well be referring to the vanishing art itself. He paints a grim picture for the watch-wearing public. “We were caught in the development of quartz tech nology,” Rugole says. “Some industries, especi ally in the United States, took it upon themselves to totally discredit watchmak ers, saying watchmakers won't be needed to service those watches — they won't be needed to do any watch repairs, period.” NOT THE CASE Rugole says “they have found out that this is not the case,” and now — as older watchmakers die or retire above aver Dan Madlung The Woodlands Organi zatio fibre supply for three them.” Unless something changes, he says, “you'll be faced with the situation of buying an ex pensive watch and the first time you have to service it, you won't have anywhere to 0.” The three-year watchmak ing course at George Brown — to be cut to two years in the near future — is the only course of its kind offered in Canada outside of Quebec. There are nine young men and one woman enrolled, of whom four will graduate this year. They will have no problem finding jobs. “There is no unemploy. ment in this business,” Rugole says. “We have more requests for graduates than we can fill. We have had that for the last 15 years.” STUDENTS NEEDED Michael Cosby, one of the two teachers in the course, says “we'll try to increase the enrolment by continued ad vertising, still I can't imagine meeting the require ments : ry TN WestarTimber — TFL Forester/ Hazelton Operations — We are presently looking for an ambitious individual with the energy and ability to organize a number of forestry related projects.

Rugole is pessimistic. “There will be fewer and fewer watchmakers available because the older ones will leave and there will not be a sufficient number of people to replace them. The art is called watch. making — although today it's almost exclusively watch re pairing as most watches are build and assembled mechan ically. It goes back to about 1500, when locksmith Peter Hen. lein of Nuremberg invented the mainspring. Winding up a slim strip of metal, he found, created the energy necessary to produce the power pre. viously supplied by heavy, hanging weights. THOUGHT PASSE There are fewer people going into watch repairing, Cosby says, and mainly the problem is “the public’s per ception of watchmaking.” “They feel watchmaking is a thing of the past. It's not something that has a high profile and it’s not presented to high-school students as a possible career.” disabled, both women were turned down the first time they applied for their $200- per-month federal disability allowance and had to appeal. Such problems convince the two women that it is important to get together with other mothers to gain emotional support and share tips. Rawnie Dunn, a single mother of two, suffers from a debilitating muscular disease and is dependent on a wheel- chair. She interviewed about 12 single disabled mothers for her masters thesis in sociol. ogy at Simon Fraser Univer- sity,.and says the biggest problems facing these women are lack of money and social services and finding trans- portation that is readily available and cheap. But lack of public understanding and appreciation can be the most painful. Dunn, 30, says society does not see disabled people as caregivers, but rather as people who need to be cared for. Dunn is trying to change that perception. She’s helped organize a Mother's Day pic- nic in Stanley Park for the women, their children and friends. She hopes the cele bration will plant the seed for Canada’s first self-help group for these people. TOUGH TO COPE “You know what it feels like doing a balancing act on a rolling log in water?” asks Brouwer, as she describes trying to keep a household together whlie battling her nervous sytem disease that leaves her weakened and tired. They have few material possessions and much of what they do have is second hand. “I don't find it problematic formy children that they grow up in — yes, poverty, because we have other rich- es. We all love reading, the mind is important,” The positive side of her ‘situation is that she feels the three girls, ages 16, 12 and 10, have become more sen- sitive and caring than chil- dren raised in a “normal” home. But there are many neg- atives. Last weekend, the children's three ‘ bicycles were stolen from the yard. They won't be replaced be- cause there's no money for such things. Says Bell-Younger: “You won't understand the blow it is to have something taken from her kids. Her whole strength comes from her will to keep going for her kids — to do things for them.” Feet far from favorite WINDSOR, ONT. (CP) -- It's true, feet aren't pretty. Functional, yes, but except for those who have a fetish of the digital sort, feet do not top the list of favorite body parts. Yet because it feels good, people wander around bare- foot whenever possible. The trick is to feel good and have nice-looking feet at the same time. First, realize nothing short of surgery is going to change the structure of your feet. If they're too narrow, too wide, too short or too long — well that’s too bad. You'll simply have to accommodate what nature gave you. Start by removing all old polish, then dip your feet in warm, soapy water. Let the water soften callouses and nails for a few minutes, then dry feet well. NTU & uh iii aa Measuring Cups, Juice Strain etc. In Plastic ‘lust Right for Travel elling!

(AP) — The all-star game ventured into the twilight zone again to boost television ratings and found itself back in the dead-ball era. A string of zeros stretched across the scoreboard until the 13th inning Tuesday night when Tim Raines tripled home two runs to give the National League a 20 victory over the American League. More than a dozen pitchers, victimized by “juiced-up” balls this year, took the sluggers back to a time of low scores and earned homers. It was a brand of baseball rarely seen this year, a mound duel spiced with some spectacular defence that perhaps only a true baseball fan could enjoy. They played in a squinty twilight in which pitcher Jack Morris said he could hardly see the plate and .375 hitter Wade Boggs said he could barely see the ball. Bret Saberhagen of the AL threw the first pitch at 5:40 p.m. PDT, prime time in the East. The starting time was chosen to please NBC-TV, but not the batters. “It's frustrating when you play in twilight,” said Boggs, who went hitless in three at-bats. “It wasn't too easy to see the ball.” HIT NO HOMERS While home runs are up 22 per cent in the majors this year, the only balls that came close were fly-ball outs in the 10th by Kevin Seitzer and in the seventh by Mark McGwire, the major league leader with 33 homers. Saberhagen, pitching with the shadows creeping over the front of the infield, threw three innings of one-hit ball against a lineup that boasted 140 homers among its first seven batters. “If every game is played in twilight, the pitchers will have their way all the time,” Boggs said. It was the third-longest all-star game in history, exceeded only by 15 innings in 1967 and 14 in 1950, and it kept the Nationals unbeaten in eight extra-inning games. The NL now leads the series 37-20-1 and has won 14 of the last 16, 22 of 25. The AL, which was trying to win two in a row for the first time since 1957-58, instead was shut out for the fourth time. In 1984, when the game was last played in twilight in San Francisco's Candlestick Park, pitchers notched 21 strikeouts. This time, they struck out 17. The Nationals managed only eight hits, the Americans six in the first all-star game to go scoreless for more than five innings. SOLVES PITCHERS The only batter to solve the pitchers was Raines, who had three hits after entering the game in the seventh. He said he promised his wife one hit, but the last one was for the guys in the dugout. “A couple of guys told me they were about to go to sleep on the bench,” Raines said. The Montreal speedster, 0-for-7 in six previous all-star Games, jumped up and down when he reached third base after driving home catcher Ozzie Virgil and shortstop Hubie Brooks with the winning runs off Oakland's Jay Howell. “Tt was just a thrill knowing when I rounded second that I had knocked in the winning runs,” said Raines, who won the game's Most Valuable Player award and made the point he tried to make all winter as an unwanted free agent. Raines missed spring trailing and didn’t play until May 2 betause he felt he should be paid with the game's best players. With no offers, he finally signed again with Montreal. “T've proven myself in the last six years,” said Raines. “If people haven't realized that, it’s their fault.” Howell, whose 4.96 earned-run average was the highest among the 17 all-star pitchers, heard boos coming and going. The home crowd lustily booed the Oakland reliever during introductions and razzed him after he gave up the winning hit. Lee Smith pitched three innings of two-hit ball with four strikeouts for the victory, and the New York Mets’ Sid Fernandez, the last player left on the NL roster, pitched the 13th for a save. Amaral optimistic over 1953. West Ath Wwenue, Vaneor Professional accountants, shaping tomorion chances of making playoffs By Cusvows Staff After tying Cranbrook 2-2 in a game Saturday, Castlegar Stars coach Carlos Amaral is pretty optimistic that his Kootenay Soccer League squad will make the playoffs. The Stars were to host Kimberley on Sunday but the East Kootenay team failed to show up. Amaral said he has the option of either taking the two points or agreeing to a make up game He added that he would rather play Kimberley than take the two points. “We have four more games left. I don't think we'll have any problem in making the playoffs,” Amaral told the Castlegar News. “Hopefully we'll pick up two or four more points.” The Stars play host to Nelson at the Kiwanis field tonight at 7 p.m. STLEGA BEST IN ROVIN By ALEX CHERNENKOFF The Castlegar Midget B Girls soft- ball team, Kalesnikoff Lumber, were victorious in the Provincial Playoffs held in Surrey over the weekend. In the first game of the tournament, Castlegar was matched against the New Westminster Royals. After giving the opposition a 4-2 lead after three innings, the locals battled back to take a 7-5 lead into the bottom of the seventh inning. Witht he score 7-6 and runners on first and third with two out, the girls were able to make the third out and hang on for the victory. In the second game, the girls faced a determined Nelson team but were able to overpower them. The girls played very sound bal) with good fielding and good hitting to come away with a 94 victory. ‘The third game saw Castlegar match against Victoria in a little easier game as they were able to build a lead and coast to a 9-5 victory. This victory gave Castlegar a 3-0 record and assured them of a spot in the double knockout playoff round. Being assured of a berth in the play- off round, the girls faced a Kelowna team in the fourth game and suffered their ony defeat of the tournament by a score of 10-6. The team ended round- robin portion in third place ‘with a 3-1 record. In their first game of the double knockout playoffs, Castlegar again was matched against New Westminster and had quite a battle on thier hands. The game was a seesaw affair and after six complete innings the score was 3-2 for Castlegar. The locals rallied for three runs in the top of the seventh innings and came away with a 6-3 victory. In the second game of the playoffs, Castlegar played Coquitlam for the first time and again were very impres- sive in their play. Leading 4-1 after 2'/: innings, the locals gave up four runs to Coquitlam, and were trailing 5-4 after three innings. This just seemed to rile Jackson football bound AUBURN, ALA. (AP) — Bo Jack son, voted the top U.S. college football player in 1985, said Tuesday he has agreed to a contract with the Los Angeles Raiders that would enable him to play both professional football and baseball. Jackson said he would join the NFL team in the fall as a running back after he finishes playing outfield for the Kansas City Royals, where he is now the team’s home run leader. Neither Jackson nor his agent, Richard Woods, would comment on the terms of the contract. But sources told The Associated Press the deal is for $2.6 million US over five years, includ ing a $1.-million singing bonus. Jackson is believed to get about $300,000 a year from the Royals on a five-year deal. Woods said it may be a few days before the Raiders contract is signed. Raiders coach Tom Flores said Jack: son’s agent approached the team, which had drafted the former Auburn star and Heisman Trophy winner in the seventh round last April. “This all happened in just the last couple of weeks,” said Flores. Jackson, 24, said he would rest “as long as I need” back home in Alabama after the baseball season before joining the Raiders. The Royals’ season could end as early as Oct. 4. If the Royals win the American League West division, how ever, their season could run until almost November. If the Royals fail to win their divi sion, Woods said he expected Jackson to be ready for football by early November — about halfway through the regular NFL season. the girls up as they came out in the top of the fourth inning with a vengance. The Castlegar team pounded out 11 straight hits and scored nine runs in the top of the fourth inning and went on to a 13-6 victory. The third and final game of the play- offs again saw Castlegar matched against the New Westminster team. The girls started the game off with three runs in the top of the first inning but New West came back with two of their own in the bottom of the inning. In the top of the second, the local girls pounded the opposition pitcher into submission with six runs on very hard hitting. They greeted the new pitcher in the top of the third inning with 14 straight base hits and 11 runs. By this time the team could sense victory and came up with two more runs to take a com- manding victory of 22-5 in the final game and win the Provincial Midget B Girls Championship. The calibre of play displayed by the team in their fielding and especially in the hitting, impressed the coaches of the opposing teams and the officials of the tournament. This victory was a total team effort and all the members of the team should be very proud of their accomplishment. Lions, Edmonton to battle for points VANCOUVER (CP) — In a season when the offences in the Canadian Football League are putting big num- bers on the scoreboard, the British Columbia Lions continue to place their accent on defence. The Lions, after allowing only 16 points in two games, will face an Edmonton offence Saturday at B.C. Place Satadium which has averaged 40 points a game for the Eskimos. B.C., Edmonton and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers all have averaged 40 or more pionts a game and three other teams are averaging more than 30 three weeks into the schedule. “I'm certainly surprised by the amount of points being scored all over the CFL,” B.C. head coach Don Mat- thews said Tuesday at his weekly news conference. “But, our focus is still on defence. “I really don’t know the reason for all the points other than the offences seem a little more difficult to stop.” Matthews said the Lions have been successful so far on defence, beating the Saskatchewan Roughriders 44-1 and the Calgary Stampeders 40-15, be- cause of the aggressiveness of the B.C. defence. “For us to be successful against any team, and particuiarly the Eskimos, we have to be disciplined in our aggres- sion,” Matthews said. “We have to play with sort of a controlled rage which allows us to still be able to think while we're going after them. “We've got to get after their quarterbacks so they don't have time to find the receivers, especially for the long bombs.” Matthews said the Lions will have four new players in the starting lineup against Edmonton, including two on defence. Import tackle Brett Williams will replace Bennie Jones, with Jones moving to the reserve list. Williams, a CFL all-star in 1986, was acquired on waivers from Montreal after the folding of the Alouettes’ franchise late last month. Canadian linebacker Glen Jackson, who missed his first CFL opener in 12 years because of a knee injry, returns to the starting lineup after a lengthy rest, with John Ulmer reverting to a reserve role. Ulmer had two strong starts while Jackson was sidelined and recovered a fumble for a touchdown against Cal- ry. Matthews said the long layoff for the Lions — they haven't played since beating Calgary on Canada Day — shouldn't hinder the B.C. defence. ADDED POLISH “We might be a little rusty on of. fence, but we should have lots of ag- gression on defence with all the rest,” he said. “We've had plenty of time to add some new schemes and polish the old.” The B.C. coach said he’s not concerned which quarterack, Matt Dunigan or Damon Allen, starts for the Eskimos, who won their first two games before dropping a 40-30 decision to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats last Sunday at Commonwealth Stadium. “As always, we must challenge with our defence,” added Matthews. “We can't allow either quarterback to scramble out of the pocket and buv time to throw the long pass. The Lions who didn’t beat Edmonton in three league games and the Western Division final in 1986, also will make two changes to the starting lineup on offence. Canadian receiver Scott Lecky gets the starting ignment at slotback, with Jan Carinci moving to the reserve list because of a groin muscle injury. Fullback John Henry White, who missed two games with a knee problem, returns as a blocker, replac- ing either Anthony Parker or Ray Crouse. Parker has a nagging knee injury which leaves him in the ques- tionable category. McEnroe keeping mum on program MONTREAL (CP) — John McEnroe is secretive about the specifics of his off-court conditioning program, de- signed to return him to the pinnacle of men's professional tennis. “I'd prefer not to publicize it right now,” said McEnroe, who was in Mon- treal on Tuesday to announce he will play in the Player's International tour- nament at Jarry Stadium, Aug. 8-16. “I am working out with someone. At first, | was doing things for enjoyment, like riding a bike, some running, a little tennis things you feel good about,” he said Now, Me Enroe will only say he is doing things that have been foreign to him, including working with weights — not the heavy equipment, but challen. ging enough to strengthen: his sore back and stiff knees. Those ailments, along with a first-round defeat to un: heralded Toracio de la Pena in the French Open in May, sent him into temporary exile for the second time in five months. McEnroe, who pulled out of Wimble- don because of the back injury, has remained at home with his wife, the former Tatum O'Neal, who is expecting the couple's second child next month, and his son Kevin. He has contemplated his future, con cluding he's not ready to retire from a sport he has dominated for much of his 10-year career. But he is also aware that unless he's prepared to pay the price in physical conditioning, he won't be able to make the arduous climb from his current No. 10 ranking. “I don't consider myself a real physical person compared to other athletes, both in tennis and other sports, but I've recognized the need to touch up that part of my game that's lacking right now — the physical con ditioning,” McEnroe said
