Former Terrace Minor
Hockey player Brad Trudeau
has been traded to another B.C.
junior hockey team.

Trudeau, with previous stints
at New Westminster and Rich-
mond, went to the Chilliwack
Chiefs this spring when his team
moved to new surroundings.

Now he’s off to Victoria with
another player, in exchange for
a goalie and a defenceman.
Trudeau is the son of the late
-Len Trudeau who was one of
Terrace Minor Hockey’s first
organizers when our new arena
opened in the early 70’s.

Weight

_foom:not
for the
young

The weightlifting room at the
newly renovated pool facility isn’t
onty larger; with sliding glass
doors opening onto the pool area
it’s much more visible as weil.
This not only means that more
people are aware of it’s existance,
but more are exercising as well.

If you’re under 16, though, you
may have been told that this
-healthy lifestyle isn’t for you.
Why? Pool management has been
given the same advice as has been
offered to many youth oriented
athletic groups in recent years; the
wrong kind of exercise can cause
skeletal damage to young bodies. It
can do more harm than good.

This information comes from
Terrace superintendent of parks
and recreation, Steve Scott, who
points out that although some
people are just finding out about
this under 16 weightlifting restrict-
ion, it isn’t anything new. It’s been
in effect since the weightlifting
room at the Terrace swimming
pool first opened its doors.

Scott explains that the recreation
department checked with the man-
agement of several other commun-
ity facilities and experts at the
University of British Columbia as
well and they all said the same
thing: kids that age can do skeletal
damage which inhibits proper
development.

So if you’re under 16,.eat the
right foods and get plenty of excr-
cise, but don’t lift weights.

FOR HEALTH

..you need protection from the sun

Facts about the sun’s rays

The sun sends out three ultra-
violet rays that are invisible.
These rays are responsible for.
our suntans and sunburns.
Ultraviolet A (UVA) produces
tanning, ultraviolet B (UVB)
causes burning and wrinkling of
the skin. The third type, ultra-
violet C (UVC), is very
dangerous, and does not reach
the earth’s surface through the
ozone layer. Both UVA and
UVB rays can cause skin cancer,
During the summer months,
UVB is strongest between 10
a.m. and 3 p.m., while UVA is

present throughout the day, all |

year long.

Facts about
sunscreen products
Sunsereen products do not
screen out UVA effectively.
Most sunscreen products allow
sunbathers to tan because UVA
is not screened. Sunscreens are

often measured according to the

amount of burning experienced,
but this will only indicate how
effectively UVB is blocked. It is
important to read product labels
carefully. Some sunscreens con-

tain active ingredients for

screening both UVA and UVB
rays. Look for products contain-
ing PABA (para-amino benzac-
acid) which produces effective
protection against UVB. Other
sunscreens ingredients such as
oxybenzone, methoxybenzone
and sulfisobenzone are effective
in screening UVA. The sun pro-
tection factor (SPF) indicates
the amount of protection pro-
vided by the sunscreen product.
The higher the SPF number, the
greater the protection. The SPF
is chosen according to skin type
and the amount of protection
desired. Generally sensitive skin
requires a higher degree of pro-
tection. The Canadian Derma-

‘tology Association recommends
using a sunscreen with SPF 15 or

greater.

Tips for skin care

_in the summer
1. Apply sunscreen before go-
ing outdoors and reapply every
few hours if remaining outside.

2. Choose a sunscreen that

provides protection against
UVA and UVB. Try to estimate
the amount of protection. you
need, and choose the Sun Pro-
tection Factor of your sunscreen
accordingly.

3. Apply sunscreens to infants
and children. Keep young in-
fants out of the direct sunlight
and teach children to apply sun-
screen products. ,

4, Limit sun exposure between

10 a.m. and 3 p.m. when the sun

is most -intense.

5. Wear appropriate light-
weight clothing and use a hat
when outdoors in addition to

sunscreen to increase your pro-

tection.
