Heart Fund Memorial
Contributions Gain
Memorial contributions to the
Oregon Heart Association for a
9-month period through March 31
totaled $16,712 as compared to
$14,786 for the same period a
year ago, according to C. J. Cole
man of Heppner, local memorial
chairman.
Coleman explained that all me
morial contributions are ear
marked for heart research.
"This Is a clear Indication,"
Coleman said, "that persons who
have lost a relative, friend or
member of their family through
heart disease are keenly aware
of the need for continued re
search in the field of cardivas
cular diseases."
The executive committee of
the Oregon Heart Association
agreed many months ago to allo
cate all memorial contrbiutions
for research in the belief that
"this is the best way to honor
the memory of persons whose
lives have been claimed by heart
disease."
Dr. Herbert E. Griswold, Jr.,
Oregon Heart Association presi
dent, reported that nearly every
county in the state showed an
Increase in Memorial contributions.
