Even insects and goodies — they call,them extraneous matter — can get into tood Conside maggots. According to the guidelines, there can be 20 dead maggots under two millimetres long in 100 grams of canned, dried, fresh or frozen mushrooms. Make that 21 and boom! Those mushrooms get tossed like baseballs in a bullpen I the maggots are longer than two millimetres, they are limited to only five per 100 grams. As for dead mites, Sinthe same 100 grams of mushrooms are.the limit The Health~Depariment guidelines set limits tor filth detined as rodent, insect or bird matter and for decomposed niate nd miscellaneous matter (sand, soil, glass, rust and other foreign substances). Ihe guidelines apply to all processed or packaged food, domestic or imported lake cheese Live mites won’: be tolerated. But there can be up to 34 dead ones per 225-gram sample of grated cheese. The same quantity of cheese can also contain three rodent hairs and three other mammalian hairs, as long as they aren't human. Human hair isa no-no in cheese Chocolate can contain up to three rodent hairs per 100 grams while coffee 100 beans, whole and roasted can contain 0.5 per cent **tilth of ground roasted coffee and you could get up to 60 in Spoon up 25 grams sect fragments as a bonus RODENT HAIRS OK Kelp and kelp products can contain up to 75 insect fragments, two rodent hairs and two feather particles per 25 grams. ‘Heavy filth’? — basically material that could sink to the bottom of a container — is limited to 188 milligrams per 25 grams. Bagged black tea can contain 120 milligrams of heavy filth per 25 grams. Though unappetiding, most of this stuff won'thurt people in sinall doses, says Bruce Bowen, scientitic evaluator of the Health Department's bureau of microbial hazards. Most Of it is also too small for consumers to see. Ihe average person isn’t even going to be aware that it’sthere,"* Bowen says. So why does the government allow any extraneous matter in food atall? If we insisted that, every food was absolutely spotlessly clean, there wouldn't be any food hitting the plies simply we ingesting here?

She said she’ was trying to lose weight too, but what difference did the water make? She was right, the water would make no meaningful difference in weight However, it would weigh strongly in her favor — she'd get through her workout more comfortably and ef ficiently and be able to recover more quickly More and more people are learning that loads of water can only help them exercise more effectively and en joyably. The days of denial are pretty well over No water AVOID HEAT People are mindful not to begin a strenuous exercise program in the heat — it can pui the heart and other organs at greater risk and is utterly stupid for anyone with circulation problems or a minor ailment In the same way, they’re in creasingly aware that avoiding water is foolish at the least and dangerous at worst ‘I notice a lot more knowledge about the necessjty of water,’ says Dr Andrew Pipe, head of the Sports Medicine Council of Canada. ‘People know more now about what can hap- penif they don’t keep hydrated.”* For many, extreme heat is the time to, skip an exercise session outdoors or to seek an air-conditioned gym for a workout. Certainly, experts say, avoid workouts between the peak heat of 10 a.m. to2 p.m SOME TIPS For those who insist on venturing out in the heat, experts advise: Drinking two glasses of water before exercising and one glass every 15 to 20 minutes of outdoor activity Topping it off with at least two glasses of water after exercise and another one about a half-hour later Minimizing the effects of the heat by wearing a light cap and loose, ab: sorbent, light-colored clothes to protect the skin while allowing as much of it as possible to sweat — Adding some, but only a little, salt to the diet. Avoid salt tablets or supplements, which can cause exhaustion and dehydration. Some other ideas come to mind. Cut the intake of fatty foods in summer, because dietary fat produces body heat And shower in tepid, not cold water Dermatologist Sharon Laughlin of Ot- tawa says cold water causes the pores to close, retaining the body's heat rather than letting it out. The key is'to get your core temperature back to normal to avoid exhaustion or straining organs FRANK’S SHARPENING SERVICE Castlegar, B.C.

But the collagen used is derived from cowhide, and for some patients the side effects range from a milk alleregic reaction to disastrous rejection that could result in surrounding flesh being eaten away All that may change because of pioneering work of Dr. Pierre Four nier, a plastic surgeon from Paris who has found a way to extract natural collagen from a patient's body and in ject it into the face. Collagen is a strand like protein, the major compoent in connective tissue that helps maintain the structure of skin, fat and other cells of the body.

Lions took advantage of an inept Saskatchewan offence and made a prophet out of Larry Crawford. The Lions beat Saskatchewan 30-13 in a CFL exhibition game in which the Roughriders turned the ball over 10 times — six interceptions, a fumble and three on loss of downs. In the only other game Tuesday night, the Toronto Argonauts rallied back from a 11-3 deficit to beat the hometown Ottawa Rough Riders 23 “We had four (interceptions) last week (in a 25-7 win over Calgary) and we said ‘Let’s go for six this week,’ "’ said B.C. defensive back Larry Crawford, who had two interceptions “I should have had a few more, but I'm happy with my performance,”’ he said The Roughriders were an offensive 86ers score new record VANCOUVER (CP) — For most of this Canadian Soccer. League season, it’s been easy to forget the Vancouver 86ers have a goalkeeper Sven Habermann has probably had the best seat in the house to watch the 86ers score a league-high 31 goals in 10 games The 86ers are undefeated in 36 con: secutive regular-season games, breaking the North American pro sport record of 35 set in 1979-80 by the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League “Any goalkeeper who plays for a team I coach will be frustrated,” says Vancouver coach Bob Lenarduzzi. “He'll often feel like he’s been aban doned.”” The six-foot-four, 205-pound Habermann, a native of West Berlin, has strung three consecutive shutouts together. He has made at least one superlative save a game during that period. His goals-against average over 10 contests is a respectable 1.10 Lenarduzzi encourages every out field player to get involved in the attack when the 86ers have the ball. It often leaves Habermann standing alone to challenge the opposition’s counter-at tacks. “You can say Sven hasn't had a lot to do over the last_three games,"* Lenarduzzi said Monday. ‘‘But-what he’s had to do, he’s done extremely well.” Off the pitch, it’s often difficult to take Habermann seriously When he was playing for the then- named Calgary Kickers in 1987, Habermann taped his twice-monthly paycheque to a soccer ball and boun- ced it in the direction of Ron Knip- schild, former owner and president of the team. Might as well make this official,” Habermann said to Knipschild. ‘It’s bouncing at the bank anyway.”” But Habermann insists he’s all business once the kickoff whistle sounds, and his track record proves he’s a money player Twice last season, he went head-to- head with Paul Dolan, a Canadian in- Clary on right path as Braves take Expos ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta right-hander Marty Clary said after winning his second game for the Braves that it always helps to start on the right foot, but then he remembered he didn’t was recalled from Class AAA Richmond on June 25.

Dale Murphy and Darrell Evans walked to load the Blauser and JohnRussell singled to chase Gross and Mc. Dowell gredted reliever Steve Frey with a run-scoring double. Jeff Treadway followed with a two-run single. Gross pitched 5 1-3 innings allowing eight hits and seven runs “I gave up a hit to Lonnie Smith, and the first thing | knew I was in a hole,” Gross said. ‘I keep searching for a way to get out of this rut.” Lonnie Smith drove in the Braves’ ninth run with an RBI single in the eighth Blauser had four hits, including a two-run double in the five-run first inning Orioles keep proving their season is for real TORONTO (CP) — The Balitmore Orioles delivered a message Tuesday night For all those waiting for the soaring Orioles to crash, they out-hit, out-pitched and out-defenced the Toronto Blue Jays in an 8-0 thrashing at the SkyDome. The Blue Jays, the team Baltimore is supposedly regarding most cautiously, fell nine games off the pace in the American League East, heading into the second half of the season. “*If we can get back to six (behind) by the all-star break (on Monday), we'll be OK,”’ said Toronto manager Cito Gaston. Dave Schmidt, 8-7, allowed two hits after carrying a perefect game into the seventh inning, only to lose it on a controversial scorer’s decision. Mark Williamson put the topping on the two-hitter with 2 2-3 innings of hitless relief “It’s no big secret,” said Orioles manager Frank Robinson. ‘‘We've just been playing sound, fundamental baseball.’ Baltimore made several fine plays on defence. Schmidt covered first base three times to take throws from second basebman Billy Ripken after grounders got past Jim Traber ‘We had players who were capable of playing defence and we worked overtime in the spring on it,"’ said Robin. son. “It paid off.” The Jays, however, were ultimately ruined by their sputtering offence. They have 27 hits in the last five games. Dave Stieb, 7-5, pitching for the first time in 10 days after a bout with shoulder tendinitis, got through a shaky first inning by dispensing with his curve ball and going to the fastball and slider , But he walked Craig Worthington leading off the third. Then Billy Ripken hit atwo-hopper to third baseman Manny Lee. , Lee, substituting for Kelly Gruber who was playing right, made a lame attempt to backhand the ball. It skipped over his glove and continued into the left-field corner, Wor- thington scored. “We're playing Gruber out of position and we're playing Manny Out of position,”” said Gaston. ‘It'll show up on you sooner or later.”” Gruber was in right Yield because Junior Felix has a bruised palm. Stieb, who said he felt no discomfort in the shoulder, gave up five hits in six innings. He walked four and struck out five. “We're just in a little lull,’’ said Stieb, untypically apologetic for the impotent offence. ‘Every team goes through it. It’s not the ball park psyching us out. We're hit- ting line drives right at people.” Schmidt, who gave up 12 hits and six runs in three in- nings to Toronto last week, lost the perfect game when Tony Fernandez dragged a bunt down the first-base line leading off the seventh Catchef Mickey Tettleton’s throw glanced off the mitt of first baseman Jim Traber and the scorer ruled it a hit in- stead of an error. Fernandez was thrown out trying to stretch it to a double. ternational player and goalie for the Hamilton Steelers, when much was on the line for both teams. When Hamilton arrived in Van- couver riding a 13-game winning streak, Habermann backstopped Van- couver to a4-1 victory. He also played brilliantly in the 86ers’ 4-2 champion- ship game triumph over the Steelers last year “This sport can sometimes be taken too seriously,”” Habermann said. ‘* But no one takes things more seriously than myself once the game starts. “Playing for Bobby’s team does have its drawbacks for a goalkeeper, but that’s OK. It’s a challenge every time out for me to get the shutout.”” Tom Burgess played most of the opening quarter, long enough to toss two interceptions, one leading to a B.C. field goal Kent Austin took over most of the rest of the game and was worse — | throwing three interceptions, two of | which led to B.C. touchdowns. Jeff Bentrim made an appearance’ in the last half of thé final quarter and threw the sixth interception. TWO FIELDGOALS B.C.’s Lui Passaglia booted a pair of field goals and two converts, while Tény Martino had a field goal and a convert to complete the B.C. scoring. Dave Ridgway kicked two Saskat chewan field goals and a convert while Austin scored an early fourth-quarter touchdown for the Roughriders. In Ottawa, LanceChomye’s 25-yard field goal gave the Argos a 3-0 lead af ter the first quarter. The Rough Riders came back in the second toput Ottawa up 4-3 at halftime. In the third, Ottawa receiver Gerald Alphin grabbed a 26-yard pass from quarterback Damond Allen and Dor- sey added a convert to put the Rough Riders ahead 11-3. Three minutes later, slotback Darrell Smith snatched a 35-yard pass from quarterback Gil Renfroe. Chomyc’s convert made it 11-10 Ottawa. The Argonauts accounted for all the scoring in the fourth quarter. Chomyc booted a pair of field goals and Emanuel Tolbert collected a three- yard pass from John Congemi.

Montreal By TERRY SCOTT The Canadian Press At this time next year, the major league pennant races, the wonder of Wimbledon, even the splendor of fireworks across North America may be shunted to the sidelines by one more sports extravaganza It’s too early for a betting line, but don’t be sur- prised if the New York Apple Biters are listed as 10- point favorites over the London Bridgemen in the first World League of American Football championship Never heard of either team? Well, when National Football League owners meet in Chicago on July 18, franchises for their latest brainwave are expected to roll off the fax machines. new clubs a head start, which they'll need, considering the league is expected to operate next March, with 12 cities — at least four from Europe, six from the United States and possibly Mexico City and Montreal — com- peting.ina 10-game schedule Montreal?” There’s every likelihood the Olym: piques, a name owned by Montreal businessman Gerry among those granted charter membership. INTEREST GREW Interest in Montreal by Tex Schramm, the WLAF appear to have adequate playing facilities “Our report will certainly speak highly of Mon- feasibility of the made-for-TV spring league. club for new league The nicknames are merely suggestions to give the Snyder and his group seeking an NFL franchise, will be head, and his associates, grew following a European jaunt to find six viable franchises. So far only four cities treal," said Dan Rooney, the Pittsburgh Steelers owner who is chairman of the NFL committee studying the Rooney has been careful to discount ‘‘any association between getting a team in this league and may field getting an NFL team.”’ But the possible presence of such U.S. cities as Birmingham, Jacksonville, Memphis and Sacramento, all of which share Montreal's interest in acquiring an NFL franchise, leaves Snyder and friends, including corporate sponsor Labatt Breweries, in a delicate situation. NFL owners have repeatedly claimed the new league would simply be fulfilling a request by television networks for a spring sports vehicle. But the league, sin- ce it is NFL-designed, seems more a case of ensuring someone doesn’t step in to form a rival league, as the United States Football League once did. The players will likely include U.S. college players, late cuts by NFL teams and free agents. Salaries are ex: pected to be in the $50,000 range. But little will be known about the logistics of the league before franchises are granted. If accepted in the WLAF, the Olympiques will compete from April to late June. The same 12-week stretch usually sees the Montreal Canadiens gaining the local spotlight fhaking a run at the Stanley Cup. Sports fans in Montreal have a tendency to flock to athletic events when a rivalry is involved, such as the New York Mets or St. Louis Cardinals againsythe Ex- pos. Fan curiosity is even tweaked by Macho Man facing Hulk Hogan But it may be difficult selling an Olympiques versus Milan Mauraders contest, particularly if the teams meet only once a season. If Montreal gains entry into the WLAF later this month, the surface they’ ll be playing on will be more like a minefield than artificial turf — it’s a proving ground, not so much for a collection of overlooked athletes as for the group committed to bringing WLAF action to Quebec.
