Thurtdoy. June I . 1 979 (Sec. 1) S A N O * ( O f . ) POST- 7 Local early birds rise and swim The early bird gets the worm, or so the saying goes In Sandy, the early bird just gets wet. As many as 16 business and busy mothers rise with the BOB RATHKE ‘Good exercise’ birds every Monday, Wed nesday and Friday from 7 until 8 a m. to start a hectic day with an hour in the pool. Program organizer and pool director Mark Smith identifies the early birds as “ comfort swimmers (who) don't swim into the pain zone," unlike his competitive swimmers. Nonetheless, most all of the 16 morning faithful have signed personal pledges on a big sign-up chart as willing to put in a hard quarter mile or better each morning toward membership in an exclusive 50-mile club. Sandy F ire Chief Bob Rathke logs up to half a mile each morning in the pool after a month and a half with the program. “ I wanted some sort of exercise,’’ he said “ My kids practically live down here.” Actually, Smith said, the program was designed for business persons and other busy adults who want some sort of physical exercise before going to work. “ I really like it,” says Kay Christensen, 20, just back from college to join the group MACY BRADER ‘Good therapy* for the first time this week “ No one’s playing around, everybody’s swimming,” she remarked Macy Brader, an early- morning regular, fears that one of her favorite haunts has been discovered “ I ’m sort of sorry that everyone has found out about this program,” she said “ I thought I had it all to myself.” Mrs Brader says that morning swim sessions — although not o rig in a lly joined for therapy, have reduced her high blood pressure by 10 points. She worxs hard and raises Arabian horses, but now leaves alternate mornings free for early bird swims. Anyone 19 years of age or older is welcome to join at a nominal daily fee. “ We have them all ages,” Smith said. The pool is closed this week, but w ill reopen next Monday.

Hood C om m unity College is one of 32 com munity colleges that have been selected to join a national consortium com mitted to improving teaching techniques geared toward non-traditional students. The Community College Leadership Program at the U n iv e rs ity of Texas is co ordin atin g the N orth American Consortium of Community Colleges. It is funded by the W K. Kellogg Foundation. “The theme is to assist community colleges in matching the promise of the open door p hilosophy,” director John Roueche wrote MHCC President Steve Nicholson. The program is designed to train staff to determine the education needs of the Gresham area, including using available educational resources outside the college. Mt. Hood must establish a research team, develop staff competencies and provide staff time to participate in conferences. In the funding proposal, the program staff pointed to differences in how com munity colleges reach older, working students. “ Students attending certain community colleges become anxious about their situation and so are poorly motivated and unsuccessful,” according to the proposal. Others “ have positive experiences and successfully complete their courses of study,” reads the report. community colleges. Port land Community College also also has been selected for the pro je ct, according to Nicholson. Through the program, faculty can “ find better ways to present ideas in the classrooms that w ill improve instruction,” Nicholson said. “ After the first year, we’ll be a center. Our people w ill pass along what they know to colleges in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska. ‘ The grant is to get at the problem of ‘how do we not just do the same thing over and over again’,” Nicholson said. He said he has been working on getting Mt. Hood into the consortium for about a year. According to the proposal, colleges were selected that have “ an open door policy, an open-minded ad ministration, a cooperative board and an atmosphere of inquiry and innovation.” Loren T renholm , Maz Zurflueh, Arnie Wolfe, and Barry Finnemore.
