National magazine publishes instructor's how-to-article By Marlene Clark Of The Print A vocational instructor at Clackamas Community College has had an article published in a national television magazine. Norm Herman, video technology in structor, was asked by the editors of "Educational and Industrial Television" to write an article. The subject of the article was left up to Herman. Herman wrote about how to talk and act in front of a TV camera. The article, entitled "The Video Performer," was writ ten in the hopes of assisting the average person to become more at ease in front of the camera, Herman said. The article has been given to people who come in to do community services productions at the col lege and to Herman's video students. The video department has done numer ous community service productions, Her man said. They have produced a program about cardiopulmonaryresuscitation(CPR) which has been used statewide and also in Vermont in training emergency medical technicians. Besides a production for the Oregon Heart Association on CPR, Herman and his crew have assisted the Oregon State Police and Clackamas County Sheriff's De partment in a murder investigation and Pacific Northwest Bell in setting up a video department of their own. Herman said that they have assisted many churches and schools. Among the schools he has helped are Pacific Univer sity, Lewis and Clark College, Portland Public Schools and Oregon City Public Schools. "Mainly we show them how to set up their own video program and then they go off and do it on their own," Herman said. Herman has built the video department without assistance from professionals.Steve Johnson, a CCC video graduate, is also a part of the video crew. Between Herman and Johnson the program has grown from a black and white camera set-up to a three room department. The department facilities now con sists of a studio, lab and front room. The front room includes a drafting table, black and white control booth and a large shelf for storing video cassettes.

He ra dioed for more information andthen radio ed the Coast Guard for aid. The ship was located off the Canadian coast. OST has also asked him to write an article on how to modify a ham radio.
