The Huron Expositor, 1985-08-07, Page 12Al2 — THE HURON EXPOSITOR, AUGUST 7, 1985 SWEAT SOCKS by Heather Mcllwraith 50 wallow in Jello Ever wanted to be a strawberry blond' Ever had fantasies that included wallowing through a vat of jello? If so you should have been in Kitchener Sunday afternoon to witness what I can see fast becoming a tradition in sporting events. A modern version of mud wrestling the new rage seems to be -- drumroll please -- jelly • jumping contests. I hadn't really considered attending the event. I hadn't really even paid much attention 'to its existence, but somehow, somewhere along the line the entire family ended up with virtually front row seats. And had I not actually been there I would never have believed it. There we were, thousands of us, seated in. 90 degree heat, with no shade, for an hour at least, waiting for the event to begin. Crazy right? But things got crazier still. Not only were we vulnerable to the heat we were also vulnerable to the jello, since all of us had at least two or ten tickets that could be drawn and allow us the opportunity to do the "jelly lump." Houseleague title sought at track The Mid -Season Houseleague Champion- ships were held on Saturday, July 27, 1985 at Bully Gully near Varna, Ontario. Riders from across Mid and Southwestern Ontario com- peted in the event. Points from races throughout the first part of the 1985 season were accumulated to determine the winner in each of the classes. Many of the local riders walked away with top honors. Several of the classes were so close there was no way of telling the winner until the final moto was through. The top three riders in each class received trophies. Locally Jim Dickins of Hensall was first in the 80A class, John Kochan of Hensall was second in the BOB class, Duane Parsons of Exeter was second in the Experimental 80 class, Gary Lovie of Exeter was third in the El dura B class, Brian Blackburn of Exeter was first in the Junior 250 class, and Brian Keys of Seaforth was first in the Senior 240 and over class. Local bikers fare well in races The second half of a weekend double header of motocross was held at Bully Gully on Sunday, July 28. Riders from across Ontario, Quebec and a rider from the Northwest Territories had perfect weather ail day long to enioy a full day of exciting motocross compL.tltion. Marty Burr of Cale- donia riding in the Schoolboy BOA class once again outrode his competition. Mr. Burr battled with Steve Bulyovsky of Norwich in the first moto but Mr. Bulyovsky just didn't have enough left to catch him. The next CMA race will be held on August 25 at Bully Gully. Local fmishers were Brian Keys who finished third in the Senior 250 class and Brian Blackburn of Exeter who finished second in the Junior 250 class. Caution urged Funny thing was as the afternoon pro- gressed and the numbers continued to be drawn there were some of us who were actually getting more and more enthused with the idea of wallowing in the jello. Must have been the heaf. In my case I nearly died when a number called was just one number off from my ticket. I thought for sure I'd be going for an afternoon dip of sorts. And much as I relished the thought I wasn't exactly sure I was dressed for the occasion. After all what does one wear to go jelly -jumping there's been nothing put on the market yet that I'm aware . of. But my number didn't come up, and while I might have expressed some ' remorse over missing the opportunity of a lifetime, I'm really not all that broke up about it. All it took was one look at the first two or three of the 50 people who eventually took a plunge into the jello, to conclude I'm not one to break the "mold." summer athletes Alf kinds of athletes from weekend golfers to daily joggers should be more cautious in the summer than during the rest of the year. When the temperature and humidity rise, so do certain risk factors. One problem associated with summer sports is dehydration. Heat illness is common among football players, runners, tennis players and anyone who exercises in hot weather. Children are especially susceptible to dehydration. Many high school coaches and youth summer baseball teams restrict play- ers' water intake. This can be dangerous. Encourage active children to drink plenty of water in the summer, even if they say they are not thirsty. Here are some guidelines for summer exercise: - Drink lots of water before, during and after any exercise, • Don't exercise during the hottest part of the day. - Exercise in the shade. If this is not possible, at least take rest breaks in the shade. - Take rest periods of 15 to 30 minutes for every hour of exercise. - Wear loose, white, porous clothing to reflect heat and to permit evaporation. Keep the skin exposed as much as possible, but beware of sunburn. s . -BAG PVArranarr/an� JR• TENNIS TOURNAMENT Sat. Aug. 24 (Rain Date is Sun.

Cost S2 per person $ 1 for Seaforth Jr. Tennis Club Members SPORTS Even bad golfers have good day August already! You don't even have to look\ at the calendar to see it either. The nights are clear and crisp and that harvest moon is like a giant ball of fire on the horizon. There are a few odd leaves scattered on the ground and the apples will soon provide good snacking on almost every fairway. It has been great golfing weather and plenty of golfers have been visiting the area from all over ' Ontario, the States, and even overseas. On Thursday it was busy enough to warrant a starter. That's a first. There was another first for me this week. It happened at the ladies' invitation in Listowel. I played rafrer poorly (what an understate- ment), but'that is not the first. I came home with a prize and that's not a first either. The first is that I came home with more loot than if I had shot a great score. First of all I won a sand wedge in a raffle that only cost a dollar. Boy, do I need a sand wedge. Then the unthinkable happened. They called out my name for a prize. I knew right away there had to be a mistake because if you shot what I shot you don't deserve a prize. After I informed the organizers of the error, they discovered the scoring was, slightly askew. That had to be the worst feeling for someone ' organizing a golf tournament. It took about an' hour to get the whole thing sorted out. The natives were getting restless. What to do? Well, how about some live entertainment? My joke -telling ON THE GREENS by Carolanne Doig ability is legendary. It has now surpassed my golf game (there wasn't much to surpass). For almost an hour the laughter roared and when the scoring was finally redone they called my name again...a special prize for keeping the ladies entertained during the delay. After all, yourgame isn't everything is it? On Tuesday night at Men's Night the winners were Jim Watson Sr., Bob Gridzak, Joe Dick, and Bob Henderson. At Junior Morning the winners were Incas McMillan, Steve Papple, Karsten Carroll, Adam Quipp, Sean Cook, and Derek Gridzak. Harassed The ladies travelled to Bluewater Golf Club in Bayfield Monday night for some fun golf, and good food. Gail Price broke 40 for the first time with a 37 on the Bluewater course. Congratulations Gail. This Saturday the tee will be dosed at 11 a.m. for the Couples' Tournament which begins at 1 p.m. There are still a couple of spots available. On Sunday at 5:30 all you long hitters come out to the course for the Long Drive Competition. The Legion Seniors event is August 24, and August 25 is the final round of the Club Championship. (Continued from page All ) But, as of the time of this writing, I still have no idea Who was the mastermind of the operation. Oh, I have a few hunches, but every person I confront denies their involve- ment categorically. Which ortly leaves one option: It's an office -wide conspiracy. So I'm putting my co-workers on notice:. You're all guilty, until one of you fesses up. Or until you drive me around the bend. Whichever comes first.
