TWELVE The Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, November 1, 1979 4 f llu.!"""! - W " mimi .:W 14;: V2 JW and elderly Oregonians should be immunized "PI , Jl 1 r- - f More than 425,000 ill and elderly Oregonians should consider being immunized now for winter spring protec tion against influenza and its dangerous complications, the State Health Division said. The large group who should receive flu vaccine includes persons age 65 and older and those under 65 with serious chronic ailments such as heart and lung diseases, kidney trouble, diabetes and anemia. Kristine Gebbie, Health Di vision administrator, said that influenza, which may strike Oregon this winter and spring, increases the risk of pneumo nia and death among the ill and elderly. She pointed out that modern flu vaccines are up to 80 percent effective in preventing the types of flu for which they are formulated. "There is no reason for the ill or elderly not be protected by flu vaccine," Mrs. Gebbie said. "Flu immunizations are available through family phy sicians and local health de partments." As the flu season ap proaches, no major outbreaks have been reported yet in the United States, but some cases and small outbreaks did occur last spring and late summer.

Director, Zone 3 RANCHER, FARMER, IRRIGATOR Paid for by the Committee to re-elect Dick Krebs Choose Experience Time is running out for veterans of World War II if they're in the market for buying houses and want low interest loans. Bob Harris, a Heppner real estate broker, said the state loans provide for interest at 5.9 percent. However the "GI benefits" bill for World War II, insofar as real estate loans are concerned, will expire on Jan. 31, 1980. There is always the possibi lity of an extension by the legislature, he said. Loans are given for 95 percent of the appraised market value of property to be financed, Harris said, and life insurance protection comes with the financing. Veterans who have pre viously taken advantage of the .state GI loan privilege may do so again, according to Harris, for financing up to $50,000. To be eligible, one must have lived in the state for an accumulated two years after separation from military ser vice, Harris said. "But we're coming down to the wire (on getting such loans)," Harris commented. WARNING! To those disposing of garbage in city streets and parks: Dumping of rubbish, debris or materials on private land or public way is prohibited by City Ordinance No. 3G5. Violators shall be punished upon conviction by a fine of not less than $5.00 nor more than $100.00 or by imprisonment for a term of not less than two days but nor more than fifty days, or by both such fine and imprisonment, in the discretion of the court.
