TIM WILKINS is now
general manager of Machus
Management Services which
operates the Palace Grille and
Lounge as well as the ban-
quet facilities and suite food
service at The Palace of
Auburn Hills.
Tim was formerly assistant
general manager and has
been with the Machus organ-
ization for 11 years in a varie,
ty of management positions.
WHEN DOUBLEDAY in-
vented basebal over 100 years
ago, he couldn't have envi-
sioned it being played at
30,000-and-more-seat ball-
parks at night or broadcast to
millions across the U.S. and
Canada . . . Nor could he have
anticipated the quantity of
food consumed in the
bleachers at major, minor or
even little league games.
Concession stands, strategi-
cally-located throughout the
stadiums sell everything from
popcorn, ice cream, hot dogs,
peanuts and crackerjacks .. .
to potato chips, beer, soda and
even sushi in San Diego .. .
Vendors, who roam the
bleachers, can wreak havoc
with a weight-conscious fan's
best intentions . . . It's so easy
to overeat at baseball games
that dieters may cry foul and
forego the all-American
experience.
"Don't let spectator sports
throw you a curveball," says
Florine Mark Ross, area
director of Weight Watchers
. . . "Between watching the
action and chatting with
friends, it's easy to eat from
the pre-game party right
through a full nine-inning
game without realizing how
much food you've consumed.
With a sensible weight-loss
program like the new 1989
Quick Success program from
Weight Watchers, however,
you can enjoy food-related ac-
tivities without feeling
deprived."
Defeat your weighty oppo-
nent with these tips from
Weight Watchers, says
Florine.
If you like to munch, and
don't want to strike out on
your weight-loss plan, pinch
hit for pretzels and potato
chips with low-calorie crun-
chy foods like unbuttered pop-
corn . . . Think through
beforehand how you will res-
pond to friends who en-
courage you to eat or drink
more than you would like . . .
A strategy enables you to
decline . . . At pre- and post-
game parties, select only the
food you planned to eat . .
When finished, dispose of
your paper plate, diminishing
the risk of overeating . . . In-
tentionally pass cake and ice
cream desserts in favor of
refreshing melon and other
fruit . . . There's nothing like
fresh fruit on a hot summer
day . . .
Avoid getting to know the
beer and soda hawk on a first-
name basis . . . Reach for low
calorie beverages like diet
soda or club soda . . . If you
must, try ordering light beer
which has fewer calories than
regular beer . . . Or, bring
along a relief pitcher of cold
water livened up with a
lemon to guard against the
possibility of dehydration.

cluding the prestigious "Mar-

NEVER KNOW what you
may learn sitting in a barber
chair . . . At Charter House
Barbers on the Boardwalk,
Orchard Lake Road, Barrister
Joe Hornstein, Hy's son,
recommends Capers on Six
Mile and Gratiot . . . "They
have great steak," says Joe,
"and charge 30 cents an
ounce."
