FOl'K The Heppner Gazette-Times. Ileppner. Oregon, Thursday, Jamiarv 2J, l!)X With Justine Wealhrrforil J The community is looking forward to the play to be presented at Heppner High School soon. Director Jane Rawlins, the production crew and performers have put in many hours of preparation. Along with the school music department's offerings, this "cultural event" merits community support. Several lucky Morrow residents have been and will be enjoying southern climates. Several couples, including the Harold Kerrs, have been attending the National Wheat Growers meeting in Phoenix. Ariz, and the Raymond Frenches and others are going to attend the National Cattlemens' meeting in San Diego. Calif. Norma French had thought it might be a bit difficult to leave because their fourth grandchild was expected but their second daughter, former fair and rodeo Queen Verina (Mrs. Tony Schiller) had Tina Kay early and the grandparents departed feeling very happy, as were Tina Kay's parents, other relatives and her older brother, Ryan Raymond ', Schiller, 5. More than a week ago a small, young, well-cared-for poodle wearing a little red collar was dashing about amid traffic on Heppner's Main Street, apparently confused. The city police chief agreed that this was surely a family pet and he supposed that the family would be looking for it before long. Martha King, who lives downtown in an apartment on the street level of the Heppner Hotel, sheltered the pup for several hours until its owners contacted the police and were sent to her to regain their pet. The city police explain they have no way of taking care of lost pets. Martha says she definitely can not do this regularly but she at least may have saved the life of one very special poodle. , Of course I was pleased to read in the Gazette-Times of Jan. 10 that three Capital Manor residents, Fay Coulter, Hazel Southerland and her brother, enjoy this paper and this column. Many weeks I find there does not seem to be much news at my finger tips that I feel is interesting enough to share. When friends remember to tell me about happenings that they find interesting and which I so often do not hear about otherwise, .1 am so pleased, .because I know that out-of-town readers particulSrly will enjoy those personal items. Please do try to reach me at 676-5504 or stop me on the street and share your news bits. All of us like to feel that we are. in some way, contributing something that other folks may enjoy. I guess maybe that is part of the essence of good citizenship. So if you will share things of interest with me which 1 can write about for others to enjoy, it may in a small way help make our community and world a bit more interesting and pleasant. So don't forget that I really appreciate your help. Senior Citizen News... Last week three senior citizens from Morrow County, Martha King, Helen Currin and Justine Weatherford, enjoyed lunching with the large group of seniors that gather each weekday at noon in Pendleton. None of the threesome had visited the East Central Oregon Association of Counties headquarters before nor in the office of the Area Agency on Aging. It was educational and helpful to learn about the agency headquarters and the senior citizens' mealsite in the five-county area. The seniors who are on this county's advisory committee are reminded of the committee's January meeting next Monday, Jan. 28, at 1:30 p.m. at the Columbia Basin Cooperative Building in Heppner. One matter that may be decided then will be the choice of a better name for the county's Quintra Bus. In Pendleton last week, there was a small discussion about the matter of publishing advance menus for senior dinners. It seems that some mealsite committees found that because various menus are not as popular or appealing as other offerings then their attendance drops; conversely, the attendance rises sharply when certain popular main dishes are being offered. Therefore, in some areas, the menus are never published. It would be helpful to hear from Gazette-Times readers how they feel about this matter. All persons over 60 years of age are privileged to attend the meals at their local mealsite or wherever they happen to go visiting. The meals are carefully planned by a top dietician-nutritionist and are prepared by excellent cooks and assistant cooks. The senior citizen meals are not charity offerings; at-the-door contributions, basically, are providing for the meals. The system of senior meals and other senior activities such as field trips are managed by committees of senior citizens and are not welfare matters, although there are provisions to help any eligible persons who really need help. Occasionally the menus printed here are subjected to a few last-minute changes because of the availability of donated supplies or for other unanticipated reasons. It is expected that the meals to be offered in Morrow next week will be: At Irrigon. Monday, Jan. 28 Meatballs and gravy over rice, buttered spinach, apple and pineapple salad, hot bread, butter and apricot jam, relishes, chocolate pudding and cookies. At Heppner, Tuesday, Jan. 29 spaghetti casserole, plain and garlic bread, carrot-apple-raisin salad and gooseberry cobbler with topping. At lone and Heppner Wednesday, Jan. 30 tomato juice, chicken casserole, biscuits and jelly, molded cabbage-pineapple and cool whip salad, buttered beets and apple mystery dessert with topping. All meals are served with coffee, tea or milk. High risk urged to up-date vaccine Since influenza viruses change from time to time, it is important that the "high risk" population (those over 65 and those with serious chronic ailments) get a shot of up-to-date flu vaccine every year to be sure of maximum protection.

By Undine Tullis, Morrow County Extension Service Child Abuse will be the topic for a special Home Extension training session Jan. 29 in Pendleton and Jan. 30 in Hermiston. According to Extension Home Economist Molly Saul, the incidence of child abuse in Umatilla and Morrow counties is extremely high. Because of this, the two-county program committee thought it impera tive to select a program to deal with the topic. The January training is designed to make Extension members aware of the extent of the problem, and to explain what individuals of all age groups may do to help. The cost to society also will be discussed. Working with Mrs. Saul to present the training will be Mary Ann Pauline, child development specialist with the Umatilla County Educa- "Little minds are interested minds in the commonplace." tion Service District. Ms. Pauline also directs the Par ents Anonymous program. The following Children's Ser vices staff members in Uma tilla and Morrow counties will also participate: Virginia Rose. Tony Williams, Bill Ledbetter. Pat Wilson and Bill Sheirbon. The first training will be Jan. 29 at 10 a.m. in Conference Room No. 240 at the State Office Building in Pendleton, the identical pro gram will also be given Jan. 30 at 10 a.m., at the Civic Recreation Center in Hermis ton. Each day there will be a coffee and get acquainted period starting at 9:30 a.m. Mrs. Saul encourages schools, churches or other groups interested in helping with child abuse to send representatives to this aware ness training program. A company is known by the people it employs. in the extraordinary; great Elbert Hubbard Dance funds to help buy ambulance stretcher Heppner Volunteer Emer gency Medical Technicians are sponsoring a dance Jan. 26 from 9 to 1 p.m. Duane and the Plainsmen will provide the entertainment at the American Legion Hall on Chase Street. Proceeds will .go to the Heppner E.M.T. for the pur chase of a one-man stretcher. The cost for the dance is $2.50 a person. Betty CurnUtt. senior mem ber of the EMT's, said the stretcher is needed as soon as possihle because the new ambulance is more than a foot higher than theoldone and the attendants, who are mostly female, have to lift the current stretcher up to their necks to put it in the ambulance. The new stretcher will raise to the height of the ambulance patient section. She said if enough money is not made to purchase the $762.10 stretcher from the dance, other fund-raising pro jects will be sponsored by the EMT's until enough money is raised. The dance will raise funds to help buy a new stretcher Diesel engines replacing gasoline engines amounted to a 35 reduction in fuel consumption. The use of new fuel efficient diesel engines bring this reduction up to mure than 40. which can be loaded and unloaded by one person ac cording to Terry Voltz and John Nordheim, co-presidents of the Heppner Association of Emergency Medical Techni cians. South and north Morrow County have new ambulances. The old stretcher that worked in the Cadillac will not work in the higher van. The proposed stretcher would enable one (or more) ambulance personnel to load a patient without lifting them. The ambulance is operated week-days by Pioneer Memor ial Hospital. Volunteer ambu lance drivers and EMT's donate their time nights and weekends to operate the ambulance 'after hours'. A GOOD TIME...
