TWELVE The Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, November 15, 1970 ,1 'I . ' '.: 5 'J i Volleyball team loses to Enterprise The Heppner women's vol leyball team was knocked out of the Class A state playoffs in the first round when the team lost Friday night to Enterprise 15-8 and 15-8. The team was bothered by the low ceiling on the Enter prise court. Heppner setters were having trouble with hitting their shots too high so the ball would hit the ceiling and casue problems for the players who were trying to spike the volleyball. Enter prise was used to the court and therefore the sets on that side of the net were lower so their spikers could get better shots. The hometown crowd also gave Enterprise a big advan tage. "It was packed," said team member Alice Abrams, "It looked like the whole town was there." Despite the one-sided score, Heppner Coach Sheri Brock said the team did play well. She said Kellie Hammon. Abrams, Geri Grieb and Deann Conner did a good job at the net spiking the ball and blocking Enterprise's spikes. Hammond was the leading server with four serves going for points. Brock and many of her players on the team did not have much time to rest because the Heppner women's basketball team started turn ing out yesterday.

SenHPacRwoocT works to improve health care Sen. Bob Packwood has renewed his efforts to improve home health care for the elderly, his office reports. The Packwood bill, which has been introduced in the United States Senate, expands homemaker-home health aide services, and reforms current law which requires an indivi dual to be "homebound" to be eligible for home health ser vices. With the population of senior citizens growing rapidly, Packwood argued that home health care has proved to be a highly effective way to meet many of the elderly's medical needs. "Not only does home health care help seniors re main independent in the comfort of their own homes, but it also reduces health costs by cutting back on hospitaliza tion and nursing home stays," Packwood said. Under present law, the Medicare program allows home health aides to provide only limited "homemaker" services, such as light house keeping or meal preparation. The Packwood bill eliminates the restriction on homemaker services, which should make the delivery of services to seniors more efficient. The second provision would permit seniors to receive home health services in adult day care centers. These cen ters care for seniors who. in general, are unable to care for themselves and whose fami lies are unable to provide for them during the day. Many states and communitites have set up such facilities. Police Report j The following cases have been handled by the Morrow County Sheriff's Department for the week ending Nov. 13.
