Page 8, News, Tuesday, February 11, 1992 From cross-Canada runs to the land of Oz Since there's a bit of extra room in the paper this week, we have a chance to run some of the better photographs that didn't quite make it into the paper last month, because there wasn't enough room. Cross-Canada marathon runner Ken McColm (above) tells a story in the Terrace Bay Ambu- lance Facility Jan. 24 while his road manager Darlene Groomes looks on, and his seeing-eye dog Darren takes a break. The Schreiber/Terrace Bay Bantams (above right) celebrate a goal over Wesfort during their tournament-winning game Jan. 27 in Schreiber. And the munchkins rehearse (opposite page) by taking instructions from director Kim Alexander during the Jan. 12 rehearsals for the upcoming performances of the Wizard of Oz, which will be held at Lake Superior High School in Terrace Bay.

Bathing should always be done indoors in a warm spot that is free of drafts. Try to get an assistant to hold the cat while you bathe it. The cat should be towelled down thoroughly and kept in a warm place until completely dry. When the cat is dry, give it a good brushing to remove all the loose hair and to restore the lustre to its fur. Once a week check your cat's ears for wax and dirt. Do not use alcohol and don't clean inside the ear with a Q- tip. Use a cotton ball moist- ened in warm water and clean only the outer ear. About once a month you should clip your cat's nails, but use extra care not to touch the quick, which is the vein that runs into the cat's claw. If you do cut into the quick, there is a product available from the local pet shop that will stop the bleed- ing. If there's nothing avail- able, then try com starch. If your cat happens to get fleas, wash his bedding and spray the cat, or put a flea collar on it. Always ask your veterinarian about what the best items to use to combat fleas. for their fast reponse; Serge Zuernry, Leonard Burns and Mike Fewer of the Ambulance See.
