Mark Brown
Mark C. Brown, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Paul C. Brown,
Heppner, was graduated as a
trooper in the Washington
State Patrol Academy at
Shelton recently.
Ceremonies took place at
the Greenwood Inn in Olympia
on Jan. 4. Brown, whose
previous assignment was as
communications cadet in Ho
quiam, Wash., is single and
lives in Tumwater.
Brown graduated from Hep
pner High School in 1966 and
the University of Oregon in
1970. He served in the United
States Navy until December of
1973 and joined the Washing
ton State Patrol in June of
1974.
Rawlins, the class will be pre
senting its second production
this school season and the first
of the new year on Jan. 29.
The evening will feature
four one-act plays, ranging
from farce to comedy to
drama. The performance will
take place at the HHS cafe
torium. SUNDAY COSTS FIVE
PESOS, a Spanish-American
play by Josephine Niggli, is
about a young lovers' quarrel,
with plenty of humor and ac
tion. THE OPEN WINDOW, a
familiar short story by Saki,
will be an adaptation featur
ing a young girl with a huge
imagination and a surprise
ending.
A touch of the supernatural
and suspense will be seen in
THE MONKEY'S PAW, by
W.W. Jacobs. In NOT
ENOUGH ROPE, a lonely girl
borrows a rope from a fellow
boarder to hang herself. (She
doesn't succeed.)
The class feels the evening
will offer good entertainment
with something for everyone
who attends.
Tad Miller has appointed
Kenny Peck, Lexington, to the
position of Oregon State Chair
man of the Taxation and
Legislation Committee.
There was an open meeting
of the Morrow County Wheat
hearts at the Tommy Martin
Ranch home in Lexington on
Jan. 12 to discuss plans for
projects for the coming year.
Harold Kerr, Kieth Rea,
Tommy Martin and Jim
Swanson met recently to up-,
date the mailing lists of league
members.
Joanne Carlson is pushing for more local certified day care
homes in Morrow County. A Human Resource Aide for
Children's Services Division, Carlson has been residing in
Heppner since January 1976.
One of Carlson's biggest problems is recruiting evening
facilities for child care. "What this means," said Carlson, "is
a home certified for regular day care who could accept
children to sleep over while the mother works the graveyard
shift."
Child care plans primarily consider the child, according to
Carlson, and Children's Services Division would recommend
that a child whose mother works from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. would
come to the home by 9 p.m. so he would have uninterrupted
sleep. He would usually be picked up by his mother at 7:30
a.m., fed breakfast and gotten off to school. Most graveyard
shift workers sleep during school hours and provide care for
their children after school.
CSD has a federally subsidized program of Day Care for
working parents whose income is marginal. Parents pay for
the day care up to a certain level based on their income and
CSD supplements additional hours of day care included in the
day care plan.
In Heppner, day care is available at the Heppner Child
Development Center and through certified day care homes.
There is a problem in parts of Morrow County because
people eligible for day care subsidies cannot use the program
because there is no space available for their children in the
limited number of certified facilities.
At the Boardman Day Care Center, which is certified,
there is a waiting list of 17 children.
The Heppner Child Development Center is open from 6
a.m. to 6:15 p.m. and most working parents in the south end
of the county are encouraged to take their children there
when it meets the need of the child. However, for parents who
work swing shift or do evening work, the center is just not
open. In Heppner, there is only one certified day care home
willing to take children in the evening or overnight,
therefore, some people eligible for the program cannot take
advantage of it due to lack of resources.
There is a desperate need for day care homes for daytime
hours. In some cases, this would be for children who for
medical reasons cannot be taken to the day care centers. For
instance, they may have a low tolerance to illness and a
doctor has recommended that the child be placed in a private
home, rather than to have them constantly exposed to large
numbers of children. There are also some children who
cannot adjust to group situations and others who do much
better in private homes.
Carlson recommends that anyone wishing to consider
becoming certified to help meet this emergent need should
contact her at the Heppner Branch of Children's Services
Division, telephone 676-9121.
"Certification actually is less involved than most people
believe and many people now babysitting could be certified
without too much additional effort," she concluded. Persons
who feel they might be eligible for Day Care Assistance can
also contact Carlson at the Heppner CSD Office. A parent
must be employed to participate in the program, however,
and be able to use a certified child care provider.
