Skill Olympics
More than 200 high school students from
throughout Oregon will compete Friday and
Saturday, April 15 and 16, at Clackamas
Community College in the fifth Statewide
Vocational
Industrial Clubs of America
Skill Olympics.
The Skill Olympics feature competition
in a wide variety of technical skills, inclu
ding auto mechanics, bricklaying, carpentry,
radio and television repair, sheet metal work
and welding. Students are judged by mem
bers of business and industry on assigned
tasks and are graded on written tests to
determine the winners.
Students qualify for the statewide com
petition by high school, area.and regional
judging. The winners of the statewide compe
tition will then qualify for the National
Skill Olympics.
Gib Bloomquist, agricultural and indus
trial division chairman at CCC, is organizing
the event along with George Warren of the
State Department of Education.
Larry
Noonan, automotive department chairman,
is directing the job skills contests.
Auto repair bill
Oregon consumers are being asked to
contact their legislators and urge their sup
port of a bill to provide consumers some
protection in the area of auto repair.
House Bill 2085 has been introduced in
to the 1977 Legislature to provide three
sanctions for the public: the right to re
placed parts, a completed work order and a
choice of estimates.
The bill will be heard before the House
Business and Consumer Affairs Committee,
whose members are Representatives Grannell
(Chairperson), Fawbush, Achilles, Kerans,
Klein, Markham, Morris, Shaw and Vian.
Similar legislation was proposed in 1973
and 1975 but was unsuccessful. Part of the
failure has been attributed to lack of public
response.
Auto mishap
Richard Edmund Nash, 20, a student at
Clackamas Community College suffered ser-
ious head injuries Tuesday, Feb. 22, when
the Volkswagen he was driving was struck
in the left side by a Chevrolet pickup.
According to police sources, Nash ap
parently pulled off the access road near
Smuckers onto Beavercreek Road without
stopping to check for oncoming traffic, and
was hit by the pickup.
Nash was pinned in his car and had to be
extracted by firemen from District 54, who
shortly arrived on the scene. He was taken
to Willamette Falls Hospital for emergency
treatment, and was then transferred to the
University of Oregon Health Sciences Cen
ter intensive care unit where he is reported
in serious condition.
Neither the driver of the pickup, Edwin
Dee Heilman, or his passenger, John Gregory
Scott, were injured.
The series starts March 17 an
held from 6:30 p.m. to 8 in the E
Building on the Marylhurst campus]
