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.
Pat Erir.dle of the Heppner
Neighborhood center says that
volunteers are needed to help
with office work and with
meals. She says that t's
current CETA progrr.id is
ending at the end of this month
and unless it is extended by .
further congressional grant,
several community programs
will suffer.

next week are, on Tuesday,

french fries, buttered spinach,
molded apple pie and pinapple
salad, corn bread and fruit t
