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.

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

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

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

donate their time nights and
weekends to operate the
ambulance 'after hours'.
