WhyGrow
Old?
ByJosephine Lowmon


Many women are suffering from
skin and scalp allergies but do
not realize 1t. They may be trou-
bled with rashes on the skin or
with extremely dry or cracked
sore lips. with constant sniffles or
an asthmatic cough or red
trimmed, irritated eyes.
What is an allergy? 1t has been
defined as personal sensitivity to
some substance which is harm
less to most persons. In a recent
survey Of more than 1000 women
it was found that rs per cent had
noticed skin trouble after using
soap, one out of every ten said
that perfume made the eyes water
or irritated the nasal passages
and one out of twelve said that
certain lipsticks caused their lips
to feel irritated.
There is one type Of eyelid ir-
ritation which dermatologists i'm
|mediately suspect as coming from
nail polish. Sometimes nails split
when polish is used constantly.
Even more often when allergy is
present, the skin Of the face may
be inflamed, especially about the
eyes, on the cheeks and even on
the neck.
An allergist can make tests
which will pin down your par
ticular allergy or allergies. You
may find that some item Of cloth
ing, food. cosmetics or something
in your SURROUNDINGS. - such rs
feather pillows. is your trouble. II
you are having some unexplained
skin trouble or eye or nasal or
throat irritation Z this angle Is
worth investigating. =.
In the past an allergic woman
often had to leave cosmetics Oh
and for the modern woman this
would be trial. Today there Is
great variety in the nonallergy
cosmetics which give you a big
range in choice Of colors. You
can buy these scented or un-
scented. depending on whether or
not you are allergic to perfume.
All known ingredients in the
usual face powders which cause
trouble have been left out. Two
of the greatest offenders are orris
root and starch. You can buy lip
sticks without dye and nail polish
which will not give you trouble.
If you would like to have my
leaflet, "Your Outer Coating" :"
send a stamped, self addressed
envelope with your reuqest for
leaflet No. Al to Josephine Low
man in care of The Evening Star.

NETTLES.
(From Mrs. W. p. ShadysideJ
I noticed a request for control
OF sea nettles from Mrs. w. P. r.,
Fairhaven, and I believe that this
will solve her problem.
Get a roll Of rat wire from the
hardware store about 1 feet high
and q few posts wooden. Drive
posts in and nail wire as near the
bottom of beach as possible so
nettles can't slip In. II you have
a pier and steps. fasten wire
around back of them so steps can
be used to 60 into the pool" Your
children will be safe from the
nettles and wire can be taken in
and stored at the end Of the sea-
son. It will last for years. If q
large pool is desired, two rolls
wire can be used. We use two, and
the little children are safe and
have lots of fun.

SUGAR RAY
 IS WINNER,
 GAvILAN 60

PHILADELPHIA, July 12-lR-- Ray Ro. .inson is still king of the welterweights but he would readily give ur the crown for a shot at Jake LaNIottas middleweight title.
 If there ever was any douot whether Sugar Ray is the best CT the welters, he erased that impress sion last night with a clean cut unanimous decision over Cuba $ hustling Kid Gavilan.
 Robinson announced he was per- fectly willing to continue fighting in the 147-pound division.
 But I would gladly give up my title for chance at the m-ddle- weight championship. I want to fight IaMotta again. he said.
 He whipped LaMotta four out o1 five times before Jake won the 16O-pound title.
 Even Gavilan's staunchest sup rortsrs (and they were faany) in the crowd of 27,8o5 at Municipal Stadium couldn't find any fault with the decision Some of them and the Kid himself did take eX- ception, however, to the wide mar gin of victory
 Judge Harry Lasky and Referee Charley Daggert each gave the champion nine rounds and Gayilan six. Judge Frank Knaresborougn scored the fight 12 for Robinson and three for the challenger.
 T do not understand how the officials gave so many rounds to Robinson" said the Cuban. "l thought I won eight rounds
 The fight drew a gross gate ot Sl75,754 - considerable more than the promoters expectations = with Robinson collecting 40 percent and Gavilan 18la of net of s128,435.
 The Harlem flash. with only the defeat by LaMotta to mar string of e9 fights since turning pro in 19z0, punched sharply and met Gavilan's twc-fisted rushing tactics with a beautiful defense.
 The first five rounds were pretty much give and take But in the sixth Robinson started moving away
 Robinson weighed AT; Gavilan 1441a.
 Al Veil, matchmaker for tle New York International Boxing Club, offered sugar Rays man ager, George Gainsford, a choice of either Q title fight with Charlie Fusari, Irvington, N.J., or non title bout with middleweight chal- lenger Steve Beuoise of New York
 Gainsford and the champ said they would consider the bid.
