'Flu Shots Advised By Health Officer “Vaccination is the only effec tive method of preventing in fluenza, ” Dr. Richard H. Wil cox, State Health Officer said to day. The U.S. Surgeon General’s advisory committee of experts on immunization recently announced that “flu” vaccine has provided up to 80 percent protection against this epidemic disease in repeated scientifically conducted trials. This year an even more effective vaccine containing added protec tion is available. against local outbreaks.“Flu”can be prevented, and so can the misery and possible tragic complications that go with it, Dr. Wilcox con cluded. “Flu” vaccination is recom mended particularly for those over 45, expectant mothers, and per sons of any age who have chronic diseases. These include heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes, TB, and other chronic lung and bronchial disorders. Children of school age are attacked by “flu” more than any other group. Fre quently. they come in contact with the virus at school and bring it home, where it spreads throughout the family. The fast-growing Mt. Hood Sheriff’s Reserve Unit is now ac cepting applications for member ship, it was announced today. “Flu” shots should be obtained early in the Fall, and should be completed at the latest by mid December. Although a major nationwide outbreak of “flu” is not expected this year, it would be wise to see your doctor as soon as possible, and take his advice as to which members of your family should be vaccinated The group meets regularly the second and fourth Mondays of each month at 8 p.m. at Opal’s Cafe in Sandy. Applicants should be men between the ages of 21 to 45 years. Those interested in joining should apply at the meetings or call Les Wallace, MU 7-2044; Ray Ruedi, MU 7-2979 or Don Root, Hood land MU 7-2979 Sheriff's Unit Seeks Members Receiving training through the Sheriffs office and FBI at Oregon City the uniformed reserve unit is highly skilled in search and res cue and aids police in all such work. Members also substitute for regular officers when needed and act as auxilary units In law en forcement and other duties where trained officers are necessary. With only three candidates, Har old Edes, Mervll Kirby andGarlan McCulloch, seeking the threecoun- cil seats being vacated by retiring members. Phil Jonsrud, Don Lund- bom and Ralph Hames; with Mayor Mike Paluck unopposed in his bid for re-election and with City Re corder Ruth Loundree and City Treasurer Bertha Alt standing alone in their slot on the ballot, it doesn’t appear that election day will bring any local surprises to Sandy voters. This situation, one that many hundreds of political hopefuls throughout the nation would doubt less envy, may be fortunate but don’t relax yet for there are still many head-scratching decisions to be made on the several con troversial measures on the state ballot and much weighing and pray ing to be done before ballots are cast for individual candidates who cover a broad spectrum from President of the United States through County Tax Assessor.

(Story on Page 10) Jaycettes Explain Blood Need Announcing that the Red Cross Bloodmobile will be visiting Sandy some time in November, the Mt. Hood Jaycettes, in a letter to the Post, reveal an unusual need for blood in the area and ask that everyone able to donate prepareto give blood at that time. The Jay cettes explained their appeal as follows: “Why are we always asking you to donate your blood? “Because blood is a community responsibility, and in no other way can you better say ‘I care about my fellow man.’ "At the present rate of con sumption the average person dur ing his life time will use 4 1/2 pints of blood provided by some one else. “Under normal conditions our community alone within the next year will use 120 pints of whole blood. But now, we have a new family who have had to use 40 pints in just 3 short months. “The most the Jaycettes have ever been able to gather in one year was only 87 pints. So our community is falling way short of taking care of their own. "Not only do we need 120 pints, or more, of whole blood but at any time one or more of us may have urgent need of one of the derivatives made from blood. These are: "Plasma--used in the treatment of burns and emergency cases, such as accident victims. "Serum Albumin--used in the treatment of certain kidney and liv er diseases, malnutrition and shock. When whole blood is not available. "Gamma Globulln--frequent in jections are given to persons who have no resistance of their own to ward off infections, also In the prevention of measles and hepl- titis. "Flbrinogen--Is used to clot the blood in cases of hemorrhage. "Red Cells--These are taken from plasma and used in the treat ment of certain anaemic condi tions. “Knowing this, can any of us be too sure that we may not have need of this life-saving blood or its derivatives in the near future? “About giving blood--This is nothing to fear. Any healthy per son over 18 and not past 60 can give. “How? First, you are register ed, then a nurse takes your tem perature, tests your hemoglobin, checks your blood pressure and pulse. Then a record on the his tory of any recent illness that might affect your ability to give blood is taken. “Next you are given a glass of fruit juice to drink, then you enter the donor room. "The actual giving of blood takes approximately five minutes, then you rest for five minutes. The rest period Is followed by refreshments. "There is a doctor present at all times. “Blood can be donated every 8 weeks, (but not exceeding five times in one year) with no ill ef fects. Simple isn’t it? "Soon the bloodmobile will be In Sandy. Please watch for it, as the blood you give may save the life of one of your loved ones.” Irwin, Taylor Acquire Interest In Newport Paper Sale of the weekly Newport News to a new corporation, the New port News Publishing Co., was announced today by Publisher Ray Moe.
