When the starship-like racing cars of the Can-Am series move to Mosport for the Molson Diamond Can-Am- Trans-Am weekend, August 18, 19 and 20, the track will look more like star wars than car wars. With their sleek wide bodies and wings that produce downforce for faster cornering instead of lift for flying, the Can-Am cars will be driven by a field of drivers from as far away as Australia and'as near as Toronto. Expatriate Austrahian drivers Alan Jones and Warwick Brown lead the points standings for the Citicorp Can-Am Challenge with Americans George Folîmer, AI Hoibert and Elliott Forbes-Robinson in hot pursuit. Jones from Mebourne who ives in London. England, is a regular front runner on the Grand Prix circuits of Europe and between races he jets to -North America to drive in the Can-Am at the wheel of the futuristic iooking Chaparrai Lola of Jim Hall and Carl Haas which is sponsored by First National City Travelers Checks.

Californians Folîmer of Huntington Harbour and Forbes-Robinson of La Crescenta are the only other drivers to have win a Can-Amn s0 far this season.

She's been a talk show hostess and the manager of an exclusive gift boutique. She's a perfectionist in the kitchen and her own sensational cooking made many of her 36 years miserable. Judy Kennedy has been overweight most of her life, at one point up to 90 pounds. The results wilh be on display at the C.N.E. every day at the Better Living Centre's A & P Theatre from 6-7 p.m. August 16-September 4, when Judy Kennedy introduced the Weight Watchers "Fun with Food" Show. Jd Today, at 112 pounds, Jd has a lot going for her. She says that "Fun with Food" has a point to prove. "I would spend hours in the kitchen preparing gourmet meals and every minute I spent there meant more nibbles and tastes. With Weight Watchers, I dîscover- ed so many other things to do with my life. I just didn't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen any more. On the Weight Watchers Program, g ood food can be quick, and fun to prepare." Judy was addicted to too much food from the age of three. But it had to be good. Her mother, who was French, was a superb cook, and Judy's discerning tastes were developed early. "Every day, there were three wel-balanced meals on the table. But there was also a Judy Kennedy's Good Cooking Made for Biowmanville Lions Club CARN UVAL Friday, August 11l, 1978 In case of rm, Saturday, August l2th Me morial Park - Liberty St. South Bingo - Rides Ref resh.ments Go mes of Chance Many -Different and Novell Booths( Big Dra'w for..

If I didn't hike the dessert, I'd skip the meal and sneak cookies at night, re-arranging the ones that were left so that no one wouid know." 11 Plagued by t he dangerous all-or-nothing approach common among dieters, Judy once restricted berseif to nothing but a glass of orange juice every day for 30 days, accomplishing a 31-pound weight loss. " When my third child was 18 months old, I weighed 200 pounds. I took appetite suppressants and ended up in the hospital.", Judy joined and re-joined weight Watchers five times. The hast time, in 1974, she dedicated herself to proving that Weight Watchers would not work for ber. Defiantly, she followed the program. scrupulously. She found out two things. First, it worked. July lost the first 40 pounds în 16 weeks, and has lost a total of 90 pounds. Secondly, she re-dis- covered an old friend-cooking. "Food stopped being my enemy. My favourite meals are stihi Weight Watchers Program meals. " "A doctor made me see that my weight problems were my own fault. Since that day, I have folhowed the principles of Dr. Richard B. Stuart (psychological Director and Director of Research of Weight Watchers International) as outlined in the Weight Watchers Personal Action Plan to keep my weight off." ' I "s no secret.
