The volunteers also received col orful planters made by first graders, and thank you cards and notes from the children. Also honored for extended volunteer work in the grade school for the past three years was Mrs. Nancy McElhany. The Lapp Project (Listen-Appreciate-Praise Progress) was proposed by Heppner tea chers Pauline Miller and Rachel Dick. They received a Teachers Incentive Grant for the proposal, which enabled them to buy lunches and pay mileage for volunteers, and to refinish or recover donated chairs and buy lamps. The "reading ladies," as the smaller children called the people who worked with them, were led in their donation of time by Irene Swanson, with 86 hours and Faye Ruhl, with 78.

Reading test scores this May will be compared with scores on the same test by the same children last year. The project will be fully described in a final paper by Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Dick, and available from the Teachers Incentive Pro gram in Eugene for other schools who aree interested In such a project. Volunteers, children, and the two directors have been enthusiastic over the gain In interest in reading this spring. Next year volunteers will again be used in a local unfunded program which will be broadened to include indi vidual drilling in math, help with the individualized spel ling, and help with reading games and drills as well as listening to the children read. After this year's pilot pro gram, both teachers and volunteers are better prepar ed to work together. Next fall teachers who wish to use volu nteers will be asked to list the hours of the day and the type of help they can use; this will be matched by those who wish to help.
