Show rage Six - The Springville Herald - July 2b, 1M89 SPORTS 'Hissing Man' formation honors local race driver by Roger J.Sturman Fans at Suntana Raceway Saturday, Satur-day, stood in silence while three Late Model cars and their drivers drove slowly around the oval track in a Missing Man Formation honoring hon-oring Terry Mattinson, of Maple-ton Maple-ton and car 56. Terry, a long time contender at Suntana, lost the big face with cancer Thursday night. I remember Terry Mattinson as a good neighbor who was always willing to help someone in need. A couple of years ago, the need he was serving happened to be a staff of summer camp Boy Scouts that were trying to break up a very large campsite. The closest we could get with any vehicles was about 12 mile down a mountain trail. Terry was balancing four, fifty pound tents slung from a ridge pole that he was carrying across his shoulders. He made several trips up and down the mountain carrying a similar 200 lb. load. The next day, he complained of trouble breathing and pains in his chest and was taken to the hospital hos-pital where a football sized tumor was removed from his lungs. To my knowledge, Terry never raced after that. He did attend the track occasionaly on Saturday night and was a spectator in the crowd just a week or two ago. Many of the fans and drivers came up to say hello. Terry was always a friendly, gentle giant of a man. His unusual strength was used to help others on many occasion and consequently he. had many friends. He will be missed as a husband and father and by friends and associates as a person per-son always willing to lend a hand to anyone who needed it. The action at Suntana this week is the kind Terry would have enjoyed. en-joyed. 35 lap main events were introduced and racing slicks, not normally seen at Suntana, were allowed. Kori Pasquin showed no mercy as he moved into first place in the Street Stock division after having won the Fast Heat race earlier. The combined Super Stock and Late Model main event, brought spectators to their feet when the first car left the field leaving 13 contenders to restart. Superstitious fans had their fears confirmed when a mul-. tiple car crack up reduced the number of contenders to 9. Brad Buchii was the eventual winner with Wick Goodrich in second place. The third place winner over all, Tracy Eaton, was also the first place Super Stock winner. Trophy Dash Winners were Roy Powell, Street Stock; Kenny Wilkerson Jr., Super Stock; and Dale Jordisen, Late Model. Jordisen also took the Heat Race in his division. The Street Stock Slow Heat Race was won by, Jeff Peterson. Doyle Olsen, a hot contender in every race he participated in, won the Super Stock Heal Race. In the Main Event I guess the flag man didn't see it, but from where I was sitting, I would have sworn I saw car 56 come streaking streak-ing across the finish line at least 10 car lengths in the lead. But then Terry always did enjoy watching the race in the rear view mirror. Youth compote in Arizona moot Springville youth track stars "shone" bright in Arizona. The TAC Junior Olympics Region Meet was held last Saturday and Sunday (July 15-16) in Tucson, where the temperature tem-perature was hot, and so was the competition.

Continues Psoriasis finding So far this year, the number of confirmed measles cases reported to the Utah Department of Health has climbed to 105. The state is experiencing its largest measles outbreak since 1976 when 2,351 cases were reported. The current outbreak began in April in Carbon and Emery Counties, Coun-ties, and now includes 10 counties. Especially hard hit has been Salt Lake County with 44 confirmed cases. About 17 percent of the measles cases have been among adults, but the majority of cases have been among children, according to Rick Crankshaw, coordinator of the Immunization Program in the Bureau of Epidemiology. When most Utah schools closed for the summer, the number of reported cases declined. The outbreak remains active with cases in two Salt Lake County day care centers. 15 measles cases have been associated with one of those centers. At the other, a child who visited Mexico became infected and apparently transmitted the disease to an adult relative who in turn exposed the community. As long as measles is active in Utah and surrounding states, people should be aware of the risk of exposure expo-sure and infection. Anyone experi-encingcold-likesymptoms (cough, conjunctivitis, runny nose, andor high fever) should suspect measles. These symptoms occur approximately approxi-mately four or five days before the measles rash appears. A person is infectious from about four days before until about four days after the rash occurs. Suspect measles cases should be reported to the focal health department of the Utah Department of Health, 538-6191. The department recommends vaccine for those born after 1956 unless they can document having had measles or received measles vaccine after 1970, when they were at least 15 months old. There appears to be a direct relationship rela-tionship between the severity of itching from psoriasis and the patient's pa-tient's symptoms of depression. In a recent study, psoriasis patients with severe itching problems scored higher on depression tests than patients with less severe itching. When depression was reduced through treatment, thesevere itching itch-ing symptoms were also reduced. These study results suggest that doctors should be aware of the relationship re-lationship of depression and severe se-vere itching when prescribing treatment treat-ment for their psoriasis patients.
