July a, 19ti9 Opinion a page for expression for you and us A Big Decision by Bob Watson The North York Board of Education is in the middle of a difficult decision. It is debating whether to install condom dispensers in its schools. One trustee has said that he will resign if the board does decide to install the dispensers but Trustee Cheryl Moscoe has asked the board to consider putting the machines in its secondary, junior and middle schools. The motion will be debated at the board's July 19th meeting. Trustee Moscoe says that there is no way to stop children from having sex so she sees education as the answer to the problem. According to Connie Clement, family planning program co-ordinator for the Toronto public health dept. condom dispensers would not increase sexual activity among young people. The decision by the school trustees in North York is going to be a tough one. Reject Wetlands Policy In a joint statement, the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (O.F.A.H.) and the Federation of Ontario Naturalists i F.O.N. ! recently criticized the Ontario govern- ment's proposed new wetlands policy. "Seventy to eighty percent (70-80%) of southern Ontario's wetlands have been lost forever and the people of this pro- vince have been waiting for several years for our govern- ment to take strong steps to reverse the losses." says Dr. Terry Quinney, Provincial Coordinator of Fish and Wildlife Services for the 73,000 member Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters. Wetlands provide valuable habitat for fish and wildlife. They help purify water, control flooding and provide oppor- tunities for fishing, hunting, bird -watching and photography. In rural and urban environments. wetlands are often the only natural wilderness remaining. "Conservationists would support strong legislation to protect Ontario's wetlands, but we don't get anything close to it in this proposal." says Quinney. "In fact. the proposed pbitcy could actually hinder wetland conservation." Specifically, the joint O.F.A.H. F.O.N. submission to government mattes these charges that the draft policy does not address the most important cause of wetland loss and degradation: grading, draining and filling on agricultural land. A 1987 Environment Canada study of wetland loss in southern Ontario showed that of the recent wetland conver- sions to other land rises. 81% were converted to agriculture t Working Paper No.48 Environment Canada: Wetlands Distribution and Conversion in Southern Ontario). Regrettably, this government draft policy addresses only one aspect of wetland loss, those wetlands potentially af- fected by activities requiring action under the Planning Act. The draft policy makes no mandatory changes in the way municipalities consider or do not consider wetlands and does not apply to Class IIl-%'I] wetlands, and ignores wetlands of less than two hectares. As well Northern wetlands are virtually ignored. On Seaweed And Things Let's be neat and where sand and seaweed meet extract a bit of this and that.

Albert and Susan Bond of Scarborough. are the grand prize winners of the $200,000 Stolp con- dominium townhouse in Centenary Hospital's 19899 Home Draw. Albert, 27, a crane operator. and Susan 27, are currently living in an apartment and affecting their second child any day now. Albert said, "when I told my wife that we had won she didn't believe me. She still doesn't but I guess she will tonight when we tour our new home... The Bonds had intended to be at the draw last night but instead they were at the hospital as Susan had a false labour. They were presented with the keys to the three- bedroom townhouse on Thurs. June 29th by Keary Stolp on the steps to their new hone. The townhouse is located on lot 52 of the Stolp Homes development of Morningside Village, at Morningside and Sewells Roads. Centenary Hospital's Home draw raised Sioo,000 to pay for new equipment, furniture and other items for the hospitals cbemotherapy clinic and palliative care service. Residents Lose Fight Against Tridel Condos by Gay Abbate A group of Scarborough residents have lost their right to stop the giant Tridel Corporation from building a $1 billion con- dominium project in the ci- ty centre. The Ontario Municipal Board last week supported the 2,400 unit Tridel pro- ject. Tridel, along with T. Eaton Co. I.td., pians to build 1,080 units on the nor- theast corner of Ellesmere Rd and Brimley Rd in one 22 storey and two 30 storey towers and 260 units in a 30 storey tower at McCowan and Town Centre Ct. With Prudential In- surance Co. and Royal Trustco Ud. Tridel will build another 1,080 units in two 28 storey buildings at McCowan Rd. and Highway 401. However, opponents of the project say they will ask OMB chairman to review the decision. Resident Joan Coxhead said the residents did not get a fair hearing because the chairman of the hear- ing, A.J.I.. Chapman, had already made up his mind before opponents got to present their arguments. Coxhead said Chapman yelled at her, was rude, mean and acted bored with the entire proceeding. She said he also refused to allow her to address some planning matters and threatened to assess costs against her. Coxhead also said Chap- man hapman cut her off and refused to let her give her full presentation calling it "gobbly-gook". She said she felt threatened throughout the entire hear- ing which took place in Apr,d- Coxhead is not alone in objecting to Chapman's behaviour during an OMB hearing. A North York group, the Concerned Citizens for Civic Affairs of North York, Inc. has writ- tento Attorney General Ian Scotta.g16 for Chapman's removal. Cora Urbel, vice- president of the associa- tion, said that, during a hearing in Manch, Chap- man hapman pounded on his desk, shouted at the top of his voice and insulted speakers - "Such •Such conduct de- means the role of the OMB and is intimidating to citizen parties,,, the letter states. They have yet to receive a response from Scott whose ministry oversees the OMB. In his decision, Chapman said the proposal has the support of the commuity but Coxhead said she presented the OMB with a petition of more than 400 area residents opposed to the development. Op- ponents say the develop- ment evelopment is too tall and will overshadow the civic cen- tre and homes south of Ellesmere Rd. Tenders For Hwy. 401 Ontario Transportation Minister Ed Fulton has an- nounced that tenders have been called for construc- ting a new interchange on Highway 401 at Meadowvale Rd. inter- change No. 389. This project is under- taken to reconstruct the ex- isting partial interchange at Highway 401 and Meadowvale Road in the City of Scarborough. The work includes an eastward shifting of the Meadowvale Road align- ment incorporating a new widened underpass struc- ture (to accommodate the express/collector system) and temporary connections to the westerly oriented ramps. The results of this work will form part of the overall widening of Highway 401 from six to twelve lanes, which will expand the capacity and improve the efficiency of Highway 401 through this area. Tenders will be opened for this project at ministry headquarters in Downsview July 26th. Centennial—Rouge United Church Several members met for the last meeting before the recess June 13 at the hall and went to the Town and Country for a sump- tuous umptuous dinner following which they returned to the church hall for a brief business meeting. The group wishes to ex- press its thanks to all who contributed cutlery place settings for the church and to those who collected the stamps. At the conclusion of the business session everyone enjoyed a game of Trivial Pursuit. The first regular meeting will resume on Sept. 12th at 7:30 p.m. in the church hall. The congregation regrets that Pat Brin, busband Norman, sons Aaron and Geoffrey, twin -daughters Courtney and Laura are leaving to make their home in Edmonton. We wish them well in their new endeavour. Pat has taken an active part in the work of the church, including the United Church Women, secretarial duties and choir participation. Her presence in the church will be greatly missed. Why Not Be A Volunteer Wed. July 5, 1989 THE NEWS/POST Page 5 it's Great To Be A Canadian! Happy Canada Day! kJOK, AMCU AMCU CREDIT UNION INC.

July 5, 1989 Bill Watt's Worlds BIG LAUGHS: Reviewing a comedian is one of the most difficult of tasks. It's not enough simp- ly to say that he's funny; one must explain how or why. To do so, one must describe actions and movements graphically end or repeat the jokes, observations, witticisms and asides. Doing that is almost giving away the show. In any case, to write down Dave Broadfoot's patter is almost an im- pposssibility given one's body being racked by laughter. What then, is one to do? By now even the most casual of readers must know that we heartily - robustly -recommend atten- ding Dave Broadfoot's Comedy Crusade at the Bayview Playhouse. Mr. Broadfoot is both funny and humourous: the terms are not synonomous. The former is the province of the clown: the latter is the domaine of the humourist. Mr. B. is com- fortable in both. That's a roundabout way of saying that in his one man legitimate theatre show he does what a come- dian does in a night club; he works the room. His burnout is scripted and well rehearsal but his experience Is so substantial that he can and, we aspect. does depart from his script or notes to tickle the most opportune funny bone. Looking remarkably trim and fit he ambles briskly around an almost bare stage and attacks - with gentleness -the foibles of humanity in general and Canadians in particular. There is a reference to a Canadian Regional Anglophile society (C.R.A.P. ), a discussion on whether or not our so called Navy needs another ship . . "frigate", a consideration of the plural of caboose; is it cabooses or cabeese? There is much more in- cluding a charming sketch of an old man saving the life of a lovestruck youngster. Doesn't sound like much as we write it but to see it is a pleasure. And he is never coarse even when using a euphemism for an anal aperture when discussing a fundamental difference between Canadians and Americans as noted in their respective reactions to motoring incidents. Even the most pious can- not be offended by his mak- ing mild mock over some of the interdicts of Deuternoocny. Perhaps that's what's so special about Dave Broad - foot's Comedy Crusade: it's truly-clichii coming up - a show for everybody.

Only Ed Mlrvish could pull it off and by heaven, so he has! On Mon. Aug. 14th, Les Miserables is taking a night off from the Royal Alex to perform in concert at the Skydome. Now, you won't see Les Miserables as it is presented at the Royal Alex: you'll see and hear a concert presentation but what a presentation it pro- mises to be ! The 5o oil be s gm compannted y members from the Broad- way production and backed by a 100 piece orchestra. The latter will be composed of members from the Toronto Symphony, the T.S. Youth Orchestra and principals from the theatre orchestra. Every one in the an- ticipsted 51,Ooo audience will be able to experience every facet of this wonder- ful and wondrous produc- tion through simulcast visual techniques on giant video screens inte•cut with scenes and connecting nar- rative from the production on the field cum stage. .'Curtain" time will be 8 p.m. (Narvish productions always start an time) and as we say. the show will go on regardless of the weather because of Sky dome's retractable root. Tickets are available through ticketmaster, Skydome and at Honest Ed's. What are you waiting for? PARTY TIME: It hurts like bell to realize that the cars of the fifties are now considered antique if not vintage but there they were at W-uld- fields looking as toothsome as when they fust rolled off the production fines. Of course they were death traps but krcdie. they were and are gorgeous. The cars were among the many attractions at a Fif- ties Party to send off the se- cond year membership drive for the Second Mon- day Reel Club and the Canadian Centre for Ad- vanced Film Studies. Sixties clothing was definitely de rigeur but that presented no problem for your correspondent; we're still wearing ours! (How about a raise Watson?) The Tiger Sharks were grooving with fifties music, Subway Elvis arrived by balloon, the balloon was available for rides and the food was bountiful. Salads and roast beef were the principal fare but we were much taken by the ice cream and shakes pro- vided by the soon -to -be -m - Canada Rax Restaurants. Here's a tip; when ordering their chocolate shake, make sure you get a large straw. Otherwise, you'll have difficulty getting the chunks of chocolate to your mouth. No fooling! It was a great party and one presumes a success for The Centre. In Cholly Knickerbocker fashion, allow us a few observations. Global's Elaine Loring looked enchanting in a "lit- tle black dress". CITY TV's John Burgess looked like Stanley looking for Liv- ingston in his all purpose hat (could be have it surgically removed pimps?)- Helga Stephen- son, bead honchette of the Festival of Festivals would do well to remember the lit- tle malts that have sup- ported the Festival from the begirumng and Margot Kidder should realize that being a star carries some obligation of more than passing civility to ad- mirers. Both could take lessons from Norman Jewison. Now there's a glass ac.. We're surely looking for- ward to next year's party. We've had the twenties and the fifites. Next year let's go down the middle to the thirties. Then, we can wear our Fred Astaire dinner clothes. Mind you, would Fred Astaire indulge himself in a chocolate shake, in public? Neva mind, we would. MORE PARTY TIME: While still with the fif- ties, here's something from hard working Mary Jane Gallivan of Regent Holidays. During the week of Jan. 20th, 1990, MTS Pegasus, which is the flag ship of Epirotiki Lines, is presen- ting a Golden Oldies Canb- bean cruise. On board will be Robbie Lane and the Disciples and a top name Golden Oldies radio station D.J. to keep things happen- ing with the music of the fifties and the sixties. Fine food and fine enter tainment all day and, we aspect, a good part of the night. Nothing like a Carib- bean cruise for relaxing. IN PRINT: Kids' Stuff (Fon- tana!

This is an English publica- tion and most of the people quoted are famous only in Britain. It doesn't really matter though since the world of childhood is a universal one to which all can relate. The pieces are all short and that makes this soft hover an ideal companion for the bus or tube .. oops, subway. Our favourite is by Ron- nie Barker who recounts that although his childhood was a happy one, for some reason he never had a Tiger Tim Annual. He was in his fifties when be sped one in a shop and im- mediately purchased it. We got a lump in our throat when we read that. As a child, we had the Bub- bles and the Hotspur An- nuals but somewhere, somehow over the years they have been lost. How we wish we had them again .. as much for ourself as for our grandsons. We should add that all royalties from the sale of Kids' Stuff go to the Save The Children Fund. FAST EXIT: Oh my, but things are hopping in Queen's Park these days.

However, one item needs to be clarified. The acceptable items list included motor oil and anti- freeze as long as the caps were on to prevent leakage.

July 5. 1989 Business Community- News Pearson Problems Costly To Business Serious capacity pro- blems and other inade- quacies at Pearson Inter- national Airport are costing Canadian businesses and the situa- tion is unacceptable in an era of free trade and in- creasing global competi- tion. These views were fepeatedly expressed to The Board of Trade of Metropolitan Toronto when they invited members to outline experiences at Pearson Airport. The board received more than 601etters in the fust week. "In an average week, 400 or more Northern Telecom employees will fly in or out of Pearson as part of their duties," writes Robert Fer- chat, resident, who estimates a two hour delay for every flight. "That means the company is hav- ing to swallow in excess of SW hours of dead time a week as our employees are delayed on the tarmac or in terminals." The letters came from small and large com- panies. from presidents. C.E.O.'s and average business travellers. Many cited the same problems and almost all expressed the belief that Pearson's problems were having a detrimental effect on their bottom line and their abili- ty to compete. "The very expensive time lost to my business and to my other clients as a result of these delays has caused me to rethink the kind of business I will undertake," writes W. Ross Greer, Vice Presi- dent, Burson-Marsteller. Ronald W. Eden, President and C.E.O. of Canada Malting agrees. we have 20 or 30 employees who travel regularly on business. Given the delays experienced lately at Toronto airport, the loss in productivity has been substantial." The Metro Toronto Board of Trade has long been ac- tive in taking the caocerrns of the business community regarding Pearson to government and calling for action.

"In an era of free trade and economic globaliza- tion, we must be com- petitive and the current conditions at Pearson Air- port severely restict Toron- to's opportunity to compete effectively with other world cities of similar stature,,, writes the board. It also appears that business is going elsewhere, rather than dealing with congestion and delays at Pearson. Stanely H. White, Presi- dent, Phipp Brothers ( Canada) Ltd., offered the example of conventions: "Undoubtedly, it is very difficult to measure the direct effect on business. however, it is obvious a number of conventions have been cancelled as the reputation of this airport is known in all North American centres .. the ef- fects on both Ontario and Toronto are far more significant than anyone would like to admit_" Douglas B. Earle, Presi- dent of H. A- Kidd and Com- pany, agrees that Pearson restricts Canada's ability to compete.

On the Minister's invita- tion, the board %Tote to the Minister on May 25, 1989 and expressed its interest in participating in an up- coming round of consulta- tions regarding the changes to UI and the resulting implications for training retraining pro- grams. Minister of Employment and Immigration Responds to Board's Apprenticeship Recommendations The board has received a letter from the Federal Minister of Employment and Immigration, The Hon. Barbara McDougall, P.C.. M.P., in response to its sub- mission concerning four key positions on appren- ticeship training t"Future of the Apprenticeship Pro- gram" Oct. 14, 1968). In her letter, the Minister in- dicates that "employers currently bear a heavy load with respect to the total cost of apprenticeship training,. and assures us "that the federal govern- ment does not wish to in- crease this burden". The Minister also highlights the federal government's posi- tion that if the Ontario pro- vincial "government wishes to expand appren- ticeship, it must be prepared to contribute more to the cost of training workers. " Corporate Volunteer Coun- cil Celebrates First An- niversary The Board of Trade was instrumental in the development of the Cor- porate Volunteer Council (CVC) which was established to promote cor- porate programs that en- cotrge volunteerism. Since its launch in the spring of 1988. CVC membership has grown to include over 25 ac- tive corporate members, and has been cited as a model by other cities as to how they can get CVC's started in their com- munities. Members Urged to Ex- press Their Views to The Board on Problems at Pearson Airport As part of the board's continuing efforts to seek solutions to the capacity problems at Pearson Air- port, Board President Peter Hermant is urging all board members to write with personal experiences on how the problems at Pearson Airport are affec- ting their business opera- tions. The concerns raised in the letters will be presented, along with previously stated board positions, to the Federal Minister of Transport. Ontario Chamber of Com- merce Adopts Board of Trade Policies at Annual Meeting The board's delegation to the Ontario Chamber's An- nual Meeting, held May 14-16, 1989 in Sault Ste. Marie, was led by the board's President, Peter Hermant, together with Vice President Gordon Riehl, council member Ted Hall ( representing the Tax- ation Committee), and Alex Kennedy (represen- ting the Insurance Commit- tee). The board was successful in having the Ontario Chamber adopt policy resolutions calling on the Ontario Government to: 1) implement measures of tort reform which would provide relief in the area of automobile insurance costs; and 2) contain its ex- penditures with a first priority being to permit a two percent reduction in its corporate tax rates.

Restaurants have mini- meals to satisfy a small child's appetite at reasonable prices; attrac- tions have special exhibits and small --sized viewing galleries; hotels and cnriselines allow children to stay in their parents' morns for a small sur- charge or no charge at all. Florida also provides entertaining programs for families. Activities range from those offering educa- tional day care - so children can take a break from their parents - to parties design- ed to give older children a chance to meet their peels, to programs geared to par- ticipation by child and parent together. Even the Florida legislature likes children. Earlier this year, they passed a law to allow children under 18 to accom- pany their parents to race tracks and jai alai hon - tons. Almost everyone in Florida has a special rate or program for children. Families intending to visit Florida should contact the lodgings and the chambers of commerce in the local areas for current informa- tion. Amusements Especially For Kids Petting zoos, children' theatres, discovery cen- tres: these activities are designed especially for the enjoyment of children. By encouraging their visitors to explore with all five senses, these special ac- tivities will expose children to their own environment motivating them to think about the world and their place in it.

Many of these safe teas are listed in the Guide to Her- bal Teas later in this col - As with all foods and drugs, any herbal tea should be used in modera- tion. That means only two to three cups per day. Be careful about using teas that are known to have a medicinal effect on the body. if they are not used with caution. they could be harmful. Beware of pro- ducts like "Kidney Tonic Tea", "Digestive Tea", .•Did.' or •Nerve Tea". These are "medicinal" teas and usually contain some herbs that have a strong effect on the body. They could make your con- dition worse. H you need treatment for a health problem, see a doctor so that you can get the best medical treatment possible. It can be dangerous to dia� and treat illness by yourself with herbal teas. Is There Caffeine In Herbal Tea' Many herbal teas do not contain caffeine, but a few of them do. If the package label says that it contains Black or Green Tea, Matk, Kola, Cocoa or Gurana, it contains caffeine. Many of the common spice and fruit teas such as Blackberry and Raspberry may con- tain caffeine as they are often made from regular Black tea to which flavour- ing has been added. What About Herbal Teas For Weight Loss:' Some of the "diet" teas on the market are not safe to use. For example, some contain ingredients like Juniper berries or Uva Ur- si i Sagekhomi or Bearberry) which make your body lose water. Others, such as senna, con- tain strong laxatives. These effects can be dangerous if such herbs are used on a regular basis. Although herbal teas offer a calorie -free beverage, for people concerned with weight control, use of her- bal teas to cause weight loss is not recommended. Can Herbal Teas Be Used .During Pregnancy? Yes.

Are Herbal Teas Safe For Babies? Most herbal teas are not safe for babies. A mild tea may have a strong effect on a baby's small body. Some teas can cause serious il- lness. There are a few teas, however, that have been used for generations in some cultures for babies who have certain pro- blems. Chamomile, for ex- ample, is given to babies who have colic. Fennel is often used for stomach gas. If either of these are used for a baby, only small amounts should be given (1-2 oz.) . Brew the tea with no more than one teaspoon of tea leaves to one cup of water. Chamomile should not be used if there is any history of allergy in the family. Because Chamomile is from the same plant family as Ragweed and Chrysan- themum, there is some risk of an allergic reaction. Any other herbs should not be used for babies. Nur- sing mothers should drink only the teas listed as safe (see list below), as herbs can affect babies through breast milk. If You Use Herbal Teas... When you try a new tea, follow package directions carefully. Have only one cup. Then wait several hours to make sure it agrees with you. __TLICKE CONTRACTING INC. Carpenter i Cabinetmaker Kitchens.

Reliable herb books should tell you how the herb can be used and the amount to be used. A good boost will not pro mise miracle cures for an illness. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Medicines ( both prescription and over the counter) can interact with herbs. As a result, the medicine can have a stronger or a weaker effect on your body. If you are taking medicines stick to the safe teas. Only herbal experts should pick their own wild plants for tea.

Community Sports Notes Audi Quattro IMSA Weekend The roar of IMSA GTO and GTU racing machinery and Formula Atlantic open -wheeled cars filled tfie air at Mosport Park on the weekend of June 24125. In Saturday'slifying for the IMSA GqM cars, Pete Halsmer set a new lap record of 1:18.732 (112.431 MPH) in his No. 6 Stroh's Light Cougar to take pole =ppoossition. But at the start, -mate Wally Dallen- bach, Jr. out -dragged Halsmer into Turn 1 to take the lead. The two Audi's namesakes of this series, were driven by Hans Stuck; Walter Roehrl and Hurley Haywood/Scott Goodyear, the latter from Toronto. However, those two teams turned out not to be factors in this race. Stuck had to park the No. 5 Audi of America machine on lap 23 with a power -steering problem, and Goodyear s car went out on lap 109 with various mechanical ailments. It was Dallenbach all the way until the 4th -to -last lap when HaLww passed him at the end of the Andretti straight. At that point the GTU-machine of Toronto's Jeremy Dale held 3rd overall, and he was 1st in class in his No. 00 Full Time Racing Dodge Daytona: An feat, cons =nnIq thatwas Dale's first race in that car. On the 12 h and last lap Dallenbach made a supreme effort to pass team-mate Halsnrxr but he hit the fire -wall in Turn 9. Halsmer won the race, with Dallenbach finishing in 2nd, even after crashing, as he was 9lars on the closest car, t d Dale. Jeremy Dale, 26, was voted the Norelco Cup for his efforts by members of the media. Not only did he win his class but he drove the whole 3 hours of the race without a driving part- ner, and in the intense heat. In the Players Ltd. For- mula Atlantic race Cana- dian Claude Bour)onnais qualified on the pole with a T:16.352, another lap record for this class. The other Canadian in the race, Jason Holehouse of Toronto, was not so for- tuante, having severely crashed his RWt RT -4 in practice. Holehouse was taken to Oshawa General Hospital where he was pro- nounced OK, but the car was too damaged to be repaired in time for the race. And when the race began it was indeed Bourbonnais charging to a big lead, head and shoulders above the rest of the field. That only lasted until lap 11, though, when his engine broke. se cond pole -qualifier Colin Trueman took over the lead until a full -course yellow came out, caused by Jeff Andretti's crash in Turn 5. (Andretti was medically OK too. ) *=n the course went green with one lap to go, Trueman was ppaasssed by the No.2 Swift DB 4 of J.O. Cunningham who went on to win. Trueman came in 2nd and Robert Kaneda came 3rd in his No.37 Swift DB -4.

MS Bike Tour The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada is holding the Noranda Forest Multiple Sclerosis 150K Bike Tour, the first over- night bike tour for health charity in Canada. The bike tour will take place the weekend of August 19-20 through the scenic countryside of Well- ington and Peel Counties. The tour is for avid bike en- thusiasts as well as "Sun- day Riders". It is not a race, cyclists are en- couraged to travel at their own pace. The tour begins Sat. Aug. 19 at 8 a.m. from Heart Lake Conservation Area, just outside Brampton.

After a hearty breakfast the next morning cyclists will con- tinue their journey towards the picturesque village of Eramosa, down through Rockwood, and finally back to Heart Lake Conser- vation Area for a celebra- Treating The average person with arthritis waits four years before seeking medical help. That delay can mean need- less damage. Getting early treatment for arthritis is an essential step in fighting this condition effectively. The person with arthritis irequires a custom-made treatment program, design- ed by both doctor and pa- tient. The program will de- pend on the type of arthritis involved, the severity of the condition, the joints af- fected, and the person him- sdfiherself — personality, age, occupation, lifestyle, etc. Most programs include a combination of the follow- ing: • Medication: Aspirin is still relied on to ease pain and reduce the inflammation that causes swelling and joint damage. For rheu- matoid arthritis, aspirin must be taken in constant daily dosages. A newer group of widely - used drugs, known as noes- steriodal anti-inflammatory drugs. or NSAID, are highly effective in reducing pain and inflammation. Corticosteriods are corti- sone -related drugs, used in severe cases of arthritis when other drugs are not ef- fective. These drugs can relieve symptoms for short periods but over longer periods side effects can build up and create serious health problems. Injections of gold com- pounds as well as other drugs are sometimes used to treat rheumatoid arthritis sufferers. The most important point to remember about arthritis medication is to take it as prescribed. Lkx- tors' instructions must be followed carefully. A suc- cessful treatment program tion bash. There will be check points along the route every 10.15 kilometers with refreshments and equip- ment to make minor repairs to bikes and cyclists. Experienced tour leaders, professional com- munications, first aid sup- port, vans to carry over- night gear, and SAG wagons to carry weary riders and disabled bikes will be provided en route. Registration is $35 (non- refundable) which covers all meals and overnight ac- commodation. A minimum of $1 perkilpmeter ($150) in sponsored pledges is re- quired in order to par- ticipate. An estimated one out of every 50 Canadians has multiple sclerosis, a disease of the central ner- vous system which has no known cause or cure. MS most often strikes young adults between the ages of 20 and 40 and women are affected almost twice as often as men. The disease can produce speeds, vision, and mobility problems in HELP KEEP RED CROSS READY! arthritis depends on following your medication instructions as ordered. For instance, if you are prescribed a once - daily NSAID, you must take it only once a day. • Exercise: Dailv exercise helps to ease many forms of arthritis by keeping joints mobile. It also helps to pre- vent the weight gain that can put pressure on already painfully inflamed joints. Swimming and walking are two terrific activities for arthritis. Your doctor may also recommend specific at- home exercises to keep your joints limber. But physical activity should be moderate and should alternate with rest periods. e Heat: Dry and moist heat can relieve pain and ease the motion of arthritic joints. • Surgery: This is an option usually reserved for severe cases only. New surgical tecluiques have been devel- oped so that painful arthnii- tic joints can be replaced with artificial ones. So far, artificial hips are the most successful. • What to Avoid: Arthritis suffers are vulnerable to a host of would-be cures. They spend almost one hun- dred million dollars a year on worthless or even dan- gerous treatments. The best way to avoid such expkrita- tion is to check with your physician before starting any treatment. Fad diets are a well- known example of this type of "remedy." In fact, diet has never been linked to ar- thritis (except for gout). Vitamin and mineral sup- plement., are not helpful in treating the condition. Sen- sible nutrition is necessary for everyone, including the arthritis patient, but it will not be a cure in itself. varying degrees from mild to crippling.
