(Shelley McPhee photo) sports Protect your eyes One hundred and sixty-sis eyes were lost by Canadians playing amateur sports dur- ing the last seven years, ac- cording to Toronto op- thalmologist Dr. Tom Pashby. While releasing the latest statistics on eye injuries to people playing sports, Pashby is quick to point out that the figures are only those reported to him from fellow "opthalmologiets across the country. In other words, he suspects there have been many more eye injuries which have gone unreported. "Hockey has accounted for most of the blinded eyes - 133," Pashby explains. "During the last year, I have 63 reported eye injuries to hockey players, with 17 blinded eyes to players 17 year•s of age and Lolder. None of these players were wear- ing face protechas. 1 would urge everyone playing recreational hockey to wear face protectors which have been certified by the Cana - On the greens can be an electrifying time By Carolanne Dolg Web it's tinmderstorni season again and I'm thankful that I have an arti- cle all prepared to inform you about all the dangers of lightning on the golf course. I was having a hard time fnr ding time to write an article this week and then came upon the bright idea of using the storm article which, even though it's a repeat, is • still an informative bit of writing. For those of you who have read it before, remember that it never hurts to brush up on safety, no matter where. Weather and golf go hand and hind.

We are in thunderstorm season now, and those large thunderclouds can build up in no time. If you're out on the golf course you may find yourself in a dangerous situation. Golfers are very often victims of the awesome power of lightning bolts. Three well known golfers who have had first hand ex- perience with lightning are Bobby Nichols, Jerry Heard, and Lee Trevino. Needless to say, each has developed a great respect for this super charge of eledricity' In June 1975, at a tournament in II - lino* Michels was stunned when a lightning bolt struck nearby. Trevino and Heard who had seen this from another hole, took shelter under an mnbreila. lightn- ing struck a nearby pond, travelled through the ground and up Trevinors putter, which he was leaning on.

Afternoon, when golfers are out in abundance is the L time of greatest risk, with 70 per cent ofdeaths and in- juries from lightning occurr- ing between noon and 6 p.m. If you should be caught on a course in a thunderstorm, there are a few rules of thumb to lessen the risk: 1. Throw down your clubs and your umbrella and stay away from the flagstieks. You don't want to be holding or be close to metal objects; 2. avoid standing under a single tree. Single trees are ideal lightning targets and 15 percent of lightning victims are injured ,while under a single tree; 5. the further . you are from a water body and also Stay away from small shelters and lone buildings in open •areas; 4.
