Senior Citizen News By Justine Weatherford The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, September 21, 1978-FIFTEEN Golf Tournament several children from Orange Vale, o Kinzua news Barbara Pike 768-2861 Five males and 14 females attended the second and final CPR class at the Christian Church Monday. They brought their 50-question test papers with them and talked over some of the questions with instructor Linda Connor and her assistant Suzanne Jepsen. Each one who wished to qualify for certification was carefully checked as he or she demonstrated the techniques of single and team CPR. One eager participant said "even though I am working on a dummy, I feel a real sense of urgency in this." Several who attended the six hours of instruction were past 80 years. Ms. Connor stated that Seattle has gained praise because one out of three adults there has been trained in CPR. She said "Surely Heppner and all of this county should do as well as Seattle." , The full-length dummy used by the class is the property of the Pioneer Memorial Hospi-, tal and was purchased through the Bernard Doherty memorial funds. The partial dummy used belongs to the Hermiston Safety Center. Ms. Connor says the hospital's dummy cost $1,000 but that she knows a similar one can be purchased now for $400. She is hopeful to obtain one for regular instructional use. Because the seniors were not charged tuition for the instruction, they gave free will contributions toward the costs. Instructors Connor and Jepsen thanked them for their attendance and said "You have been an exceptionally attentive and good class." Sunday evening, Sept. 17, the Retired Senior Volunteer Program of Umatilla and Morrow Counties - will honor participating volunteers at dinner at 4 p.m. in the BMCC Student Lounge. June Wag ner, Pendleton, directs this program with assistance from Roberta Erwin.
