MEMPHIS, Tenn. — People
who want to get a summer tan
should watch their numbers,
according to one researcher.
Most sun care products carry
a Sun Protection Factor num
ber, from 2 to 15. The higher
the number, the greater the
amount of protection from the
ultraviolet rays of the sun.
Dr. Robert Sayre, director of
a research center for a major
manufacturer of such products,
says fair-skinned people should
use a relatively high number in
the first days of exposure from
the sun before dropping to a
lower number after the skin has
become conditioned to the sun,
Sayre said.
Sayre also warns that sun ex
posure is cumulative. “Your
body has a computer,” he says,
“that logs every unprotected
hour
Lye makes good paint stripper
United Press International
No matter how you look at
it, stripping off old paint to
get the wood ready for a new
paint coat is a messy job. But
it’s getting to be expensive, as
well.
Many homeowners are dis
covering what professional
painters and furniture re-
finishers have known all
along: one of the best and
least expensive ways to strip a
large surface of old, hard
paint or varnish is with a
strong solution of household
lye in water. You can buy pow
dered lye at the supermarket
or hardware store for less
than $1 a can.
Mention of the word lye
(sometimes called caustic soda
or sodium hydroxide) often
brings to mind some great
danger. But an article in
Popular Mechanics Magazine
says anyone who is used to
handling the common brands
of drain and oven cleaners
should not have any trouble, if
they exercise caution. Most of
these cleaners are lye. It’s the
same lye that Grandma used
to make soap.
Lye has no toxic fumes. It’s
nonflammable, so it won’t ex
plode in your face if you get
near a flame.
However, in its dry form it
can be dangerous to inhale.
And when diluted with water
it can irritate skin or injure
your eyes if you get splashed.
For insurance, be careful not
to splash it on your skin. Wear
rubber gloves, long sleeves,
goggles and — when working
with powdered lye — a face
mask to keep you from inhal
ing the dust.
Keep a garden hose handy
in case some gets splashed on
your skin. It should be rinsed
off quickly.
Make lye remover in a steel
or iron pail only. Other mate-

Lightning
can strike
same place
United Press International
Lightning not only strikes
twice in the same place but it can
kill without hitting its victim.
Meteorologists report 15
people each year are killed by
lightning and another 250 are
injured during thunderstorms.
“Lightning is such an intense
thing, a person can be hurt or
killed by lightning striking near
by,” said Nathan Reiss, an associ
ate professor of meteorology at
Rutgers University.
“It does not actually have to
pass through them to kill them,”
he said. “If hit directly, they
would be burned to death, but
most likely it would interfere
with the heart beat. It is like an
electric shock.”
Harry Gaynor, president of
the National Burn Victims
Foundation, based in Orange,
N.J., said lightning victims often
are attending athletic events
when they are struck.
“Golfers out on a golf course
with their golf clubs extended
into the air can be hit,” he said.
“And at ballgames, people may
not seek proper shelter.”
The flashing bolts that fill the
sky in the midst of a thunder
storm can stretch from 200 feet
to as long as five miles and can
reach 100 million volts of elec
tricity, according to Harry
Woodworth, a spokesman for
the National Weather Service
office in Newark, N.J. He said
feelers of electricity come down
from the clouds and start up
from the ground in discharging
energy.
Although the odds are gener
ally in a person’s favor since rela
tively few are killed by lightning,
Gaynor said, “Why take a
chance? You mayjust happen to
be in the wrong place at the
wrong time.”
These experts’ suggestions of
ways to avoid being struck by
lightning:
•Get inside a home, large
building or metal vehicle.
•Driving is all right, but avoid
touching any metal which would
act as a ground if hit.
•Avoid standing under trees
because lightning is attracted to
the highest point.
•Avoid lakes and large bodies
of water, which are good con
ductors of electricty, which
spreads the voltage beyond the
area struck.
•Avoid using the telephone
except for emergencies. I f light
ning hits electrical wiring it is
likely to travel along the wire to
the phone.
•Keep away from a plugged-
in television set which could ex
plode.
A lightning feeler from the
ground searches for the highest
point, like the top of a tree, to
start its jump and then reaches
to meet the streak from the sky,
Woodworth said.
“If you start to feel your hair
standing up on your head, that is
usually the lightning looking for
a place,” he said. “Sometimes it
strikes from the sky, sometimes
from the ground.”
His advice is to hit the ground
to avoid being struck.
“Lightning not only strikes
twice in the same place but it
usually finds a spot that it likes
and returns there,” Reiss said.
He offered the example of the
Empire State Building in New
York City, a tall pointy object
which, he said, is often hit.
Reiss warns, however, people
can easily get struck at the other
extreme, standing in a flat, open
field.
“You may very well be the
highest thing around,” Reiss
said.
“Lightning is always danger
ous. The more intense the thun
der, the more frequent the light
ning. The more lightning, the
more chance you have of getting
struck.”
