Such information would be development for inclusion in the upcoming 1977-78 budget.

No action was taken on the three additional agenda items Clothing can keep bills down If you know how clothing insulates and keeps the body w arm , you can dress ac cordingly and low er the th erm ostat, reports M rs. Marilyn Lunner, Oregon State University home economist for Clackamas County. “ Clothing can play a sig nificant role in helping save on fuel bills this winter," she says. Absorbency is one factor that affects a garment's warmth. The more absorbent a garment is, the mure it will allow per spiration and body moisture to evaporate from the skin as vapor, instead of condensing on the clothing, returning to the skin, and requiring evaporation again. An absorbent fabric allows moisture to pass through as vapor so the body stays warm. Natural fibers such as cotton and wool are the most ab sorbent and therefore the warmest fibers Insulation is another factor that affects warmth. Several lightweight layers of clothing will keep you w arm er than one heavy layer because a ir is trapped between each of the layers of clothing. This air is heated by body heat and in turn provides in sulation Layers could be provided by an undershirt, shirt or blouse, vest and sweater. Lined garments are generally warm er than unlined garments because of the ad ditional layer. The number of layers is directly related to the amount of warmth created, but this should not be confused with the w eight of the garm ents. Heavier weight garments are w a rm e r unless they hold trapped air for insulation. Cleanliness and dryness of clothing also affect the war mth If the air pockets In and around the fabrics are filled with water or dirt particles, they cannot hold the warm air and insulate the body. G arm en t design affects warmth, too Tight clothing inhibits circulation so that the body cannot efficiently keep itself warm. In addition, tight clothing provides less chance for w arm air to be trapped and act as insulation. However, garments which are closed at the neck, wrists and ankles prevent w arm in sulating air from escaping. Gynther named to honor roll Sandy resident M arcia A. Gynther has been named to the Eastern Oregon State College MHCC board considers survey probing voter financing attitudes The Mt. Hood Community College ( M H CC) Board last Wednesday directed college administrators to draft an opinion survey designed to learn how the com munity college is perceived and how to get community financial support in levy elections Mt. Hood district voters rejected four consecutive money measures in 1976 and the board is considering an April 19 election to raise the issue again MHCC President Stephen Nicholson said he will provide a basic outline of the survey at the Jan 19 board meeting Jack H a rtn e tt, assistant to the president, said one of the staff con siderations will be whether a survey is necessary. Bards ley and Haslacher. a professional survey company, probed district attitudes about MHCC in September 1975. Harnett said another survey could be duplicative and, therefore, unnecessary. However, he said that if a new probe is authorized, it would center on financial matters and why the school has not been able to pass a levy recently. “ A good majority of the people think we’re doing a good job." Hartnett said. "But when we try to transform this at titude into financial support, they’ve said, • It’s a good job with what we’ve given you, but we re not going to give you any more.’ ’’ The 1975 survey concluded that finances is perceived by district residents to be the m ajor problem facing MHCC.
