by Janet Spencer In honor of the PGA golf tournament coming up this month, Tidbits goes golfing! GOLF THROUGH HISTORY • The game of golf may have originally started as a game played by the Romans called ‘paganica.’ It was played by hitting a feather-filled leather ball with a crooked stick. • Modern golf was invented by the Scots, and by the mid-1400s had become so popular that King James II outlawed the game because he felt his subjects were wasting too much time playing it when they should be spending more time doing useful things. Archers were losing their shooting ability because they were spending so much time hitting little balls around instead practicing their aim. •Golf was once an Olympic sport. It was dropped in 1904. •The first golf tee was patented on December 12, 1889 by a dentist named G. F. Grant of Boston. •America’s first 18-hole golf course was constructed on a sheep farm in Downer’s Grove, Illinois in 1892. When businessman Blair McDonald moved to this town, he began constructing the course with his colleagues because he loved golf. The Downer’s Grove Golf Course is still intact after all these years, although it has since been downsized to just 9 holes. (turn the page for more!)

Tidbits® of Sheridan and Johnson Counties Tidbits Presents the

HEALTH PAGE TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH By Keith Roach, M.D.

What Is COPD? --DEAR DR. ROACH: Please help me to understand what COPD means. -- S. ANSWER: “COPD” stands for “chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.” “Chronic” means that it is long-lasting, and “obstructive” means the airflow in and out of the lungs is decreased. The three subtypes of COPD are chronic bronchitis, emphysema and chronic obstructive asthma. These conditions usually are progressive. COPD is the third leading cause of death in the U.S. Chronic bronchitis is a chronic productive cough (specifically, lasting three months or more in two successive years). Smoking is far and away the leading cause of chronic bronchitis in the developed world, but home cooking fires are the cause in developing nations. “Emphysema” means the destruction of the walls of the airways, causing abnormal, permanently enlarged air spaces. Smoking is again the leading cause of emphysema, but a genetic condition, alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency, can bring about both emphysema and liver disease. People with this uncommon disorder sometimes mistakenly are assumed to be smokers. Asthma is a common condition that is highly variable from person to person. Most people have reversible obstruction to the airway with exacerbations of asthma, but some people have a degree of obstruction all the time, and they are considered to have COPD. COPD typically causes cough and shortness of breath, especially with activity. COPD often has exacerbations, which may be associated with infections, that cause worsening of symptoms, frequently requiring treatment, including hospitalization. Treatment for COPD is to remove any known cause (usually smoking, even secondhand smoke). Medicines to reduce inflammation (especially inhaled steroids) often are used, as are medicines to relax the muscles inside airways to relieve obstruction. In severe cases, oxygen is necessary. Lung surgery or transplantation is rarely used. The booklet on COPD explains both emphysema and chronic bronchitis in detail. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 601W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: I have Parkinson’s disease. Although my medication is still working, it’s not as effective as it was. I have heard that this is the time to consider stem-cell treatment. Can you tell me if this is a good idea? -- S.A. ANSWER: Parkinson’s disease is caused by the loss of neurons (nerve calls) in a portion of the brain called the substantia nigra. Stem cells are early, unspecialized cells, capable of differentiating into any kind of cell. The theory with stem-cell treatment is that the stem cells will go into the affected part of the brain and take on the role of the damaged or destroyed cells. Some early work has been promising. In my view, the technology is not yet ready for widespread clinical use. I don’t recommend it. There are many new medications for Parkinson’s disease, and I have recommended non-pharmacologic therapy, including exercise, several times. I strongly recommend evaluation by an expert, preferably a neurologist experienced in Parkinson’s disease. A reader recently wrote to tell me that treatment of his vitamin D deficiency greatly relieved his Parkinson’s symptoms. ***Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@ med.cornell.edu. To view and order health pamphlets, visit www.rbmamall.com, or write to Good Health, 628 Virginia Drive Orlando, FL 32803. (c) 2015 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved GREAT SHOTS • During the 1949 British Open, Harry Bradshaw accidentally drove a ball into a beer bottle which broke the bottle’s neck. The ball ended up inside the bottle. To avoid a penalty, Bradshaw played it where it lay. He smashed the bottle with his club. The bottle traveled about 30 feet (9 m). The ball didn’t move. • In 1975 Perry Crowley of Connecticut was playing golf when he hit a ball into the water. However, it skipped off the lake, ricocheted off a rake in the nearby sand trap, then landed on the green and skidded into the cup. • During a 1938 PGA tournament, Jimmy Hine’s chip shot on the 13th hole hit opponent Sam Snead’s ball, and they both ended up in the cup. Both players, who were tied, were awarded a birdie two. Snead eventually beat Hines by one stroke. •Songwriter Hoagy Carmichael was playing at Pebble Beach, California. He teed up on a par-three hole, chose a club, and smacked the ball. It bounced once on the green, rolled to the pin, and dropped in the hole for a hole-in-one. Hoagy didn’t react at all. He just reached in his pocket, pulled out another ball, teed up again, and said, “I think I’ve got the idea now.” • Henry “Dads” Miller of Anaheim, California, once shot a 99 on a 5,734-yard course. He was 100 years old at the time, and had not taken up golf until the age of 67. • Fred Astaire was nearly as good at golfing as he was at dancing. In his 1938 film “Carefree,” he danced over tables, down the hallway, out to the terrace, and onto a 14 golf course. There he was to dance Sheridan Good Health Emporium over to a golf club and hit, in rhythm Leather Outfitters and on cue, a dozen golf balls that • were lined up on the fairway. When the crew went to retrieve the golf balls, they found all twelve balls Werco Ave. within eight feet (2.4 m) of each other on the green. • • “Golf Digest” reports that there Firestone Complete are an average of about 120 holesAuto Care in-ones reported every day.

FAST FACTS ABOUT GOLF • Stephen Horchler of Scotland invented a golf ball that has a builtin radio transmitter that beeps distress signals so golfers can find it. • Astronaut Alan Shepard made golf history when he knocked a few golf balls around on the moon. But he missed the first shot, taking a mulligan. This earned him a lifetime membership in the U.S. Duffers Association of Newport, Kentucky. They also awarded him the presidency of their first moon chapter. • Crows living near the golf course in Bombay, India, have developed a taste for golf balls, picking them up and carrying them back to their nests. Caddies run after the balls and cover them with a red cloth before the crows can spot them. • Sign posted on an African golf course: “If the ball comes to rest in dangerous proximity to a crocodile or a hippopotamus, another ball may be dropped.” • On a golf course in Africa, golfers tee off from the flat top of a 15-foot (4.5 m) termite mound. A hundred other mounds on the course provide the hazards. • You need to walk 35 miles (56 km) to reduce one pound (.45 kg) of fat. If you drink two average cocktails during an 18-hole round of golf, you will end up with a net caloric gain. • In the movie “Diamonds are Forever,” James Bond smuggled diamonds inside his Dunlop 65 golf balls. • Golfer Gene Sarazen was playing in an early world championship match in 1922 against Walter Hagen. At the end of the first day, he was just 2 strokes behind, on account of having missed a couple easy putts due to nerves. That night he complained of stomach pains and was unable to sleep. The next day he went on to win the match. Four hours later he underwent an emergency appendectomy. He commented, “A sick appendix is not as difficult to deal with as a five-foot putt.” FAMOUS PLAYERS • When Laura Baugh started tearing up the golf courses in the early 1970s, she was still too young to play on the women’s pro tour according to regulations. So her agent took her to Japan, which did not have a minimum age requirement. The golf-happy Japanese fixated on the curvaceous young blond American. Laura Baugh photos, calendars, photo albums, cosmetics, school supplies, English-language cassettes, sports clothing, and gold accessories became all the rage in Japan. She became the highest paid female golfer even though she had never played in an American tournament. • Tiger Woods was only 8 when he got his first hole-in-one. Five-year-old Coby Orr was the youngest golfer to shoot a hole-in-one. He did it in Littleton, Colorado in 1975. • Henrik Stenson made headlines by stripping down to his underwear when his ball went into a swampy area during the WGC Cadillac Championship in 2009. Wearing nothing but a glove and his jockey shorts, he hit his ball out of the muck and made bogey. • Jack Nicklaus won the Masters tournament six times. • Someone asked Muhammed Ali how he was at golf. “I am the greatest!” he replied. “I just haven’t played yet!” GOLF FACTS •The word “caddy” comes from the French word for student, “cadet” which is pronounced cad-DAY. • The medieval Dutch word “kolf” or “kolve” meant “club” and is probably the origin of the word golf. • Balls travel significantly further on hot days. •A club remains in contact with the ball for half of a thousandth of a second and travels with the ball for three quarters of an inch. • 400 million rounds of golf are played in America each year.

Cat ‘Horks’ Up Hairballs --DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Sometimes my cat “Bink” starts making “horking” noises and occasionally after some time will cough up a little ball of hair. But other times he just makes the noises without producing anything. Should I be concerned? -- Karl in Des Moines, Iowa UNDERWEAR • Because August 5th is National Underwear Day (we’re not kidding!) enjoy some facts about underwear! • Abram Nathaniel Spanel was an inventor with over 2,000 patents. He became rich after he invented a garment bag designed so a vacuum cleaner could be hooked up to it in order to suck out any moths that might be inside the bag. Spanel founded the International Latex Corporation in Rochester, New York in 1932 to make items out of latex such as bathing caps, aprons, hot pads, slippers, baby clothing, girdles, and bras. Later the name of the company was changed, taking “latex” and adding it to “play” in order to create Playtex. • The Playtex Company was very forward with their advertising. In 1940- an era when underwear was sold primarily through discreet line drawings in print publications- Playtex placed a full page ad in “Life” magazine showing several photos of models wearing Playtex undies along with a mail-in coupon. Life claims that some 200,000 sales were made because of that ad. In 1954 Playtex became the first company ever to advertise bras and girdles on TV. In 1965 Playtex introduced the Cross Your Heart bra. Today it remains one of the best known brands in the U.S. and is the second best-selling brand of bra Playtex offers, with the 18-Hour Bra filling out the top spot. Today, new models are constantly being shaped up as the industry keeps abreast of the trends. • Most Historical Bras: If you’re in Los Angeles, you can visit the Frederick’s of Hollywood “Bra Museum” where they have displayed such items as Madonna’s famous bustier; a girdle worn by Ethel Merman in “There’s No Business Like Show Business”; the bra Tony Curtis wore in “Some Like It Hot”; the bra Milton Berle wore on his TV show; and Phyllis Diller’s training bra, marked “This side up.” (continued on last page)

DEAR KARL: You can always contact your cat’s veterinarian if you’re unsure about a potential health issue. In this case, Bink may be simply dealing with hairballs or trying to cough one up. According to Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, it’s not unusual for a healthy cat to cough up a hairball every week or two. These vary in size but are rarely round because the esophagus compresses them somewhat as they are brought up. Hairballs are just that: a clump of indigestible hair, typically swallowed while a cat is grooming itself. Sometimes they’ll bring them up with a bit of undigested food as well, which is always a pleasure to clean up, right? If a cat has several episodes of retching without producing a hairball, or if it vomits or is lethargic, contact the vet. It could have another problem, either digestive or even respiratory, that only the vet can diagnose and treat. So, can you prevent hairballs in cats? No, not really. Grooming is natural and healthy, and hairballs are a by-product of this. You might be able to reduce their size and frequency by feeding Bink a diet that keeps his coat healthy, with less shedding. Groom him often, even daily, to remove shed hairs. Should you give him a hairball remedy? Many vets recommend against it, as they do little to minimize hairballs. Send your questions about pet care to ask@pawscorner.com. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc. QUIZ: GARNET CARTER • John ‘Garnet’ Carter was born in 1883 in Sweetwater, Tennessee. Although he dropped out of school, he later completed a six-month business school which filled his head with ideas. • In his early years, he bounced around between jobs, working at a grocery store, becoming a travelling candy salesman, and going into business with his brother selling aluminum ware. • Next he went into business developing real estate on Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee. There he constructed an inn with a ballroom. • In 1927, Garnet Carter was looking for an added attraction to entertain his customers. He came up with a successful idea that immediately caught on with the public and became a national craze. His invention provided simple, fun outdoor recreation. It could be installed in a week and cost (at that time) as little as $2,000. • The first example of Carter’s idea was built on Long Island and brought in $362 in its first day of business. At first they were barred from within 50 feet of churches, schools, or hospitals. But one progressive church in New Jersey installed its own and urged everyone to come. The profits paid off the church’s debts. • Three years later, there were 40,000 of these inventions across the country and Garnet Carter was a rich man. The industry took in $225 million in a single year, and employed 200,000 people. The Queen of Belgium got hooked on it, and Al Capone invested in it. • The steel industry, the pipe industry, and the felt industry were very happy about the new product— and so was Garnet Carter. Can you guess what Garnet Carter’s big idea was? (Answer at top of next page) Answer: Garnet Carter invented mini-golf. IDA & WILLIAM ROSENTHAL • Ida and William Rosenthal were Russian immigrants who came to America penniless. Ida was a dressmaker so she and her husband set up a dress shop. • Ida was constantly dissatisfied with the way dresses fit around natural female curves. The current fashion was for women to wrap themselves with a “bandeau,” a strip of cloth that circled the chest, flattening everything. • In frustration – and also in rebellion against the popular flat-chested look of the flapper – Ida and William invented the first form-fitting bra which had two separate rounded pockets. Since all women are not built equally, Ida invented the cup size. She later designed different models for every stage of a woman’s life. This design enhanced rather than downplayed a woman’s natural shape. They called their company Maidenform. • They were granted a patent for the ‘uplift brassiere.’ The dresses did indeed fit better. • At first the brassieres were built into the dresses they made; then they gave away a free bra with every dress sold. The bras started to become very popular, so they gave up the dress shop and started a brassiere company with a capital investment of $4,500 in 1922. • Four years later, they had 40 machines turning out mass-produced bras. Forty years later, they had 19 factories producing 25 million bras annually. • During World War II when fabric was in short supply, Maidenform rounded out its line to include vests worn by carrier pigeons in order to help out with the war effort and prevent the company from going bust. Paratroopers would “wear” a bird strapped to their chest when they jumped out of a plane. When they landed, they would attach a message to the bird and release it.

UNDERWEAR, cont’d • Howard Hughes also had his hand in the bra business. In 1941 he and his engineering buddies invented a special bra to flaunt the bust of 19-year-old Jane Russell in the film “The Outlaw.” Censors had a fit. 20th Century-Fox cancelled the release due to the controversy. Millions stood to be lost. • So, Hughes set all of his managers to work phoning ministers, women’s clubs, and housewives to tell them exactly how scandalous this film was. This prompted wild protests as crowds of people insisted the film be banned. The publicity machine launched into full gear and the film, when it was finally released, was a guaranteed hit. It was billed as “the bra that saved Hollywood.” • On opening night, skywriters were hired to decorate the California skies with a pair of large circles with dots in their centers. • Jane Russell, an unknown before this film, had her career boosted to incredible heights. She later became the spokesperson for Playtex, a job she held until 1986.
