/ mrsday, July 30, 1959 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Faga FIt# a 2xw 2WT by Verona Kent EDITORIAL It was necessary" to change Tuesday's _ event from "Bingo Bongo" to '"Low Net" due to there being so many ties, and, also, since tjie girls played in t w o s o m e s , t h r e e s o m e s a n d foursomes, it was difficult to f'£l a fair way of determining the winners. Low Net Winners were -- Class A - Delores CKerton 97 - 20 - 77. Joan Buss 108 - 25 - 83. Class B -- Carrhen Afttonson 111 - 34 - .77, Rita Sayler 109-3,2 - 77.

SHOP IX McHENRY The Poison-Ivy Blues A three-leafed weed called toxicodendron by botanists, poison ivy by those Americans not allergic to it, and a variety of unprintable names by those who are, probably causes more vacation-time misery than most other allergic ills combined. Poison ivy is found in every section of the United States. It grows in the form of clinging vines, trailing shrubs and upright shrubs, and can usually be found just where you've set down the picnic basket; in the woods to the left of the fairway if you hook, or to the right if you slice; and on the | bank of the stream where ; you've just caught a three j pound trout. The leaves of toxicodendron jvary in length from one to i four inches. They are green j and glossy in summertime, red or russet in spiing and fall. : The fruit is white and waxy looking and resembles mistletoe. ] Although ivy poisoning has ! long been a basis for humor, | it is not really a laughing matj ter, points out the Health j News Institule. Approximatei ly "50 pet- cent of white adult i males are allergic to one or more of the members of the ! poison ivy family. . .ivy, poi- : son oak, or poison sumac. Each year more than 350,000 cases of skin poisoning are reported, ranging from mild itching to severe inflamation and large blisters. I Although most cases of ivy i poisoning are due to direct | contact with the plant, some are caused by handling clothing, garden implements, and even pets which have touched poison ivy. Some individuals are so sentitive to its allergycausing oils that exposure to a brush fire containing stalks or leaves of the plant will cause inflamation of the skin. Ivy poisoning is usually characterized by a burning or itching sensation. In some cases it is followed by blisters, pustules, oozing sores and scal- I ing, . .all attended by constant I itching. A severe attack can I take weeks to heal. Symptoms may occur any time froin a | few hours to a week after contact. Luckily, the Health News I Institute reminds us, pharma- | ceutical manufacturers have i developed a wide variety of I products for prevention and I treatment of poison ivy. Before going on vacation, the Institute suggests, ask your local pharmacist for information about these products. If you do accidentally contact ivy poisoning and break out with large blisters or severe inflamation, or develop a rash on your face or other sensitive body area, you should see a physician. He will be able to relieve the discomfort and guard against secondary infections. • But the best treatment of all, advises the HNI, is to avoid poison ivy like poison. In the words of the old jingle, "leaflets three, let it be."

In the semi-finals of the i Past Presidents' Tourney, Ed ; Buss beat Paul Overton and : Tom Evans beat Nick Freund. I Tom did not beat Nick until the 20th hole. It was a thrillj ing match in which Tom blasti ed out of a hole in the sand I trap to about 2 feet from the i pin on the 18th hole to tie the match and send it into sudden death. The finals -between , Evans and Buss will not be ! played for two weeks. This Sunday will be the 18 holes of the 72 hole medal pl<'iy club championship. One of the reasons everyone wants to win the club championship is that we at McHenry have some of the finest golfers partici- : pating in it that there are for j miles around. It is my opinion ' that we could take 6 golfers from our club and challenge ; any 6 golfers in the whole county, mu£h less frprii any i single town. AlthoU^inijiojt ! everyone who is entfel*i?$g this ! tournament is capable of wini ning it, I think that, the'ftjiree I f a v o r i t e s s h o u l d be " V a l e ; Adams, Earle Seepe an^ Tom ] O'Connell.

While the club championship is going on, the people not participating in it will have a tourney of Iheir own called A & B combined. Lowest round of the week was a 69 by Ed Buss.
