Report Names 'Sweatiest' U.S. City 
          Fri Jun 21,10:20 AM ET 

          CHICAGO (Reuters) - Every year there's a new one: Most
          livable U.S. city, friendliest city, town with the best
          manners.
          Now comes the first annual sweatiest city award. 

           Top honors go to San Antonio, Texas. 

          On a typical summer day, San Antonio residents lose more
          than 1 liter of perspiration per hour during exercise such as
          walking, the announcement said. 

          Dallas-Ft. Worth, New Orleans, Houston and West Palm
          Beach, Florida, fleshed out the top five sweatiest cities.

          Dallas-Ft. Worth, New Orleans, Houston and West Palm
          Beach, Florida, fleshed out the top five sweatiest cities. 

          The list was released on Thursday by Procter & Gamble's Old
          Spice Red Zone deodorant, apparently in a sweat to produce
          some first-day-of-summer publicity. 

          It was based, the announcement said, on the average high
          temperature and humidity during June, July and August in the
          50 cities reviewed. Based on this the company estimated the
          sweat produced by walking one hour each day. 

          "Although some view sweat as embarrassing, it is necessary to
          keep the body cool," said Mark Davis, described as a
          perspiration expert for Old Spice, which said it is sending
          the mayor of San Antonio a case of its Red Zone. 

          The five least sweaty cities were in order: Barrow, Alaska,
          San Francisco, Seattle, San Diego and Los Angeles.
