Binnie commented that she

Gustafson said that while 1

Samarodin wins top hairdressing award

ALEXA PONGRACZ
For The Castlegar Sun

| Castlegar hairstylists per-
formed well at the West Kootenay
Region of the Hairdressers’ Asso-
ciation of B.C.’s Annual Spring
Beauty Show.

More than 150 West Kootenay
hairdressers, students, appren-
tices, and friends attended the
two-day event April | and 2 at the
Sandman Inn.
| The evening's highlight was
the trophy presentations and
Castlegar stylists received honors
jn every professional category.
| Hairdresser of the Year in total
points was Sandy Samarodin of
Madison Magique.

In the Consumer Fashion Day-
lime competition, Lynda Hanley
of Zazoo took third place and
Samarodin fourth. ‘

In Men's Visual Cut, Heather
Sigsworth of Zazoo took first
place. In Hair by Night, Hanley
took second place and Samarodin
received an honorable mention.

In Progressive Styling for
licensed hairdressers, Hanley
took first place, Bev Parsons of
Boulevard Headquarters took
third and Samarodin, received
honorable mention.

Parsons, was pleased with her
award.

“We're happy. We're proud of
the work that we do.We feel that
we did very good for a new busi-
ness. We like to do progressive
‘styling and keep up on the latest.
My partner was my model so it
was a team effort.”

Samarodin has won awards in
the past. She has been competing

Lynda Hanley of Zazoo performs wonders at the West Kootenay Region Hair-
dressers' annual spring beauty show recently at the Sandman Inn. Hanley picked up

third place in the Consumer Fashion Daytime competition.

for seven years now and has
always placed well

“It's the biggest achievement, to
me, possible in my hairdressing
career, and I have learned so much
and become a much better hair-
dresser because of competitions.”

A team

“What you need, gain by
work.”

When I first saw this title I
was reading about an upcoming
NEC Gallery
display in
Castlegar,
honoring
Doukhobor
women.

But the
message
applies to a
much larger
cross-section
of our com-
munity. It’s a good lesson for
all us who want to achieve
our goals.

Take the case of young
Wayne Stolz Jr. He needs to
raise $3,000 by early May to
participate in an international
invitational tennis tournament
in Austria (he’s that good!) and
attend Wimbledon.

Does he hassle the business
community begging for hand-
outs? No. Do you read about
how desperate he is for money
and that if you can help out,
mail it to him? No.

What he needs, he gains by
work.

The 17-year-old Stolz Jr. is
having a tennis-a-thon. He will
be playing 25 hours of tennis
during the month of April. (On
weekends, of course, since he
has a full school load.)

His tennis partners are volun-
teering their time, and some of
the businesses and people in the
community have heard about it
and are sponsoring him

Nothing in this life is free

A lesson to |
be learned

For young people-like Stolz
Jr. to recognize, be, has to
work to earn the money he
needs rather than ask for
handouts is
indeed -an
accomplish-

COMMUNITY meat. He

even has
sponsorship
packages set
up so that if
you sponsor
him for a
certain dol-
lar amount
you can receive private tennis
lessons (after he returns from
Austria).

What he needs he gains by
work.

Subway jumped in early
with sponsorship and donated
T-shirts for him to wear during
the tennis-a-thon. And, they
gave him a generous dollar
amount too.

And, except for a listing in
the Sidelines column in the
Sports section of this newspa-
per, shy and quiet Wayne Stolz
Jr. hasn't really made his ten-
nis-a-thon very public.

No major press releases,
no telephone calls hounding
the reporters at The Casile-
gar Sun to come and take
pictures and write a story;
no posters plastere all over
town. Just a nice young man
who wants to work to earn
the money he needs

What a valuable lesson for
all of us.

What we need, we gain by
work.

The Vitamin C content of the orange is maintained very well in the
unpeeled orange. After juicing and kept cool, the orange still holds ite
vitamin content well if you keep the juice in a tightly-closed container. If
exposed to the air for long periods of time, the nutritional content does go
down.

While we are talking about food, a recertt article in the international Jounal

Pest Remedies

* Several kinds of carpet beetles cause dam-
age to clothing, blankets, rugs and furniture.
They feed on articles containing wool,
feathers, leather, fur or other items of
animal origin. Much of the damage to cloth-
ing attributed to clothes moths is actually
caused by carpet beetle larvae.

The black carpet beetle can also live on cereal
products and other plant material

Adult dermestids are small, oval and 3-6 mm

Jong, with short, clubbed antennae—generally black or
dull colored.

Larvae are usually brown and covered with long hairs.
Dermestid larvae may occur throughout the house; the
adults are often found at windows.

size range

Another variety, the larder beetle, is a little
over 6 mm in length. It is black, with a light
brown band across the base of the wing
covers, and feeds on a variety of stored
foods, including meat and cheese

The varied carpet beetle is mostly mottled
with a grey, rust and black zigzag patter:
larvae are yellowish brown and clothed
with long brown hairs. The larvae teed on
woolen fabrics and dried animal products.
