ASG plans College Bowl game
Students at thé College will soon be able to
put their trivia and heretofore useless know
ledge to good purpose by participating in the
College Bowl games, to be initiated on campus.
Associated Student Government, in its
Nov. 10 meeting, agreed to spend approxi
mately $500 to finance College Bowl games
and participate in regional tournaments.
College Bowl, as some may remember, was
a television show popular in the 50's and 60's,
(t was a quiz game where two teams from
different colleges competed by answering
questions on a variety of subjects.
The
winners generally received scholarships or cash
prizes for their schools.
Student teams of four will participate in at
least ten competitions on campus. The win
ning team will go to the regional trials in
Tacoma, Wash. Regional winners will then
have all expenses paid to a national competi
tion sponsored by Reader's Digest.
ASG holds retreat
at Cannon Beach
Cannon Beach was the settina for the first
Associated Student Government retreat for
officers and senators last weekend.
"I think the retreat achieved the purpose
which was to acquaint senators and officers
with ASG activities and to get the officers
and senators acquainted with each other,"
said Jim Roberts, director of student activi
ties.
Discussed at the retreat were ASG job
descriptions for both senators and officers,
college organization, office operational pro
cedures, student activities programs, ASG
budget and goals for 1977-78.
"I was disappointed.
I don't think we
accomplished what we were supposed to,"
said Dale Holland, ASG senator.
Other people seemed to be more positive
about the retreat.
"It was beneficial to the senators to learn
and discuss first hand information, other than
trying to fumble through the year as they
have in the past. The retreat seemed to be a
large success for the senators," said Mike
McCarty, ASG president.
"All in all, I found the retreat to be very
worthwhile. It added to my understanding of
ASG and I hope that the senators.That were
present gained some insight into the internal
workings of student government," said Don
Bixler, ASG vice president.
"I thought it was good, and I got some
thing out of it," Tim Selliken, senator, said.
"I really felt good about the retreat. I
have three super people working with me,
who started work today. Publicity should
pick up because of the help. My only regret
is that the 10 senators who couldn't come
lost out," said Barbara St. Mary, ASG
publicity director.
This was the first retreat of its kind
attempted, and it was successful enough to try
again in the future, according to Debbie Baker,
student activities counselor.
"I think the money was well spent,"said
Anne Marinos, senator. "I'm glad I went."
Attending the retreat were McCarty, ASG
president; Bixler, vice president; Maureen
Kearney; business manager; Hallie Brown,
activities director; and St. Mary, publicity
director. The senators who attended were
Selliken, Walt Eidman, Holland, Kirk Burst,
Marinos, Mardi Syales, Susan Lair, Phil
Boitnott, Joe Miken and Wanda Walker.
Roberts, director of student activities and
Baker, student activities counselor were the
chaperones on the trip.

Keep-Well Clinics offer heal
screening to senior citizens
Keep-Well Clinics, sponsored by the Clack
amas County Public Health Department, are a
health-screening process for senior citizens in
the area. They are located throughout the
county in Lake Oswego, Wilsonville, West
Linn, Canby, Oregon City, Milwaukie, Ken
dall, Molalla, Estacada, Sandy and Wemme
(Mt. Hood area).
"This is a screening process. It does not
take the place of a doctor's visit," said Mary
Kerrigan, nurse for Clackamas County Public
Health Department. "It is a process to look
for the abnormal and refers that person to a
doctor or some other source that can help
with the problem.
"We check for diet deficiencies, hearing
and visual problems and just talk with people
and reassure them. It is a one-to-one personal
interview," Kerrigan said.
"A man came to our clinic that was 65
years old and could not read. I discovered
this as he had no reports filled out and was
very careful to avoid situations where this
would be detected. He had lived way back in
the mountains as a child and had to help his
mother raise younger brothers and sisters, so
he never made it to school. Through the clinic
he is getting the training he needs and is
thrilled about it," Kerrigan said.
Jean Taylor, nursing instructor on leave
from the College, is doing independent
practicum with Clackamas County Keep-Well
Clinics as she works for her masters in
geriatrics.
The clinic began in April, 1977. Two
clinics are held every week and persons may
attend by appointment only. The visits last
about two hours and are run by Mary Kerri
gan and Karen Smith, nurses from the
Clackamas County Public Health Department,
volunteers from the Retired Senior Volunteer
Program (RSVP) and people in the
munity.
A person must be 60yearsolqoroJ
eligible for the Keep-Well Clinic anq
