Mack, members of the governor's commit tee on farm and home safely and secretary of the rural health council, will take part in a leader-training rally Tuesday in Eugene. 'home safety as its major project for 1955. Members of the com mittee, an Agricultural Council unit, include: Mrs. Harold Thoe nig, Eugene, chairman, Mrs. 'Al fred Steinhauer, Blachly; Mrs. Ralph Witcher, Junction City; Mrs. J. D. Duncan, Fall Creek; Philip Lake, Cottage Grove, John Kommcr, lit. 4, Eugene; Earl Yacger, Rt. 3, Junction City; El don Powell, Cheshire; and E. A. Brillon, Eugene. "The safety rally has a two fold purpose," according to Mrs. Thoenig. "It will point up the need for rural organizations to emphasize farm and home safety, and will make available materials so a program of action can be developed. Notices have been mailed to 145 safety chairmen of granges, farm bureaus, exten sion units, rural PTAs, FFA, 4-H and juvenile granges." Value of the leader-training meeting, she said, will hinge on the safety packets which will be distributed at the rally. Compiled by the committee, the packets in clude source lists of films, post ers, booklets, samples of mater ials which would be valuable in program-planning. Mrs. Mack will discuss ways to put the pack ets to work.. Concluding the dis cussion, the safety chairmen will break up into "buzz groups' to plan group programs of action. Dean Huxlablc, director of vi tal statistics for Oregon's state board of health, will put repre sentatives in the mood of "ur gency for a safety program." His discussion will provide figures on the exacting toll of farm and home accidents. Top ranking safety films, "Miracle in Paradise Valley," "Home Homicide" and "Home Safe Home" will conclude the safety-slanted evening.
