Henry Krebs of lone was re-elected as treasurer of the Oregon Sheep Growers Asso ciation at an annual, meeting in Portland. An association spokesperson reported that all 1982 officers were re-elected to 1983 positions. Nearly 200 members of the association attended the an nual meeting, held December 3 and 4. Lamb and wool marketing techniques were major topics of discussion and 18 resolutions were adopted, the spokesperson said. Dorothy H. Mann, regional health administrator for the U.S. Public Health Service in Seattle. Wash, is urging older Americans and their families to take precautions to avoid accidental hypothermia, a condition in which the body's internal temperature drops to 95 degrees F. or lower. Hypo thermia can be fatal if not detected and treated promptly. "Those of us in the Pacific Northwest states can be par ticularly susceptible to acci dental hypothermia because of the extreme low tempera tures in many areas of the Northwest. Although we have no accurate date on the num ber of people who die from hypothermia, we do know that the elderly probably account for more than half of the victims. Infants are also at risk." Mann said. "Dr.C. Everett Koop. M.D., surgeon general for the U.S. Public Health Service has issued the following warning and precautionary sugges tions and I urge our Northwest citizens to pay particular at tention to the signs of hypo thermia and note the sugges ted treatment." Mann also said a limited number of copies of the booklet "A Win ter Hazard for the Old: Acci dental Hypothermia' are available from her office in Seattle hy calling (206) 442-(M:0 or by writing U.S. Public Health Service, 2901 Third Avenue. MS 501, Seattle. Wash. 98121. "Acain this winter," Dr. Koop said, '"cold outdoor temperatures may mean that many elderly Americans will be exposed to indoor tempera tures so low that they pose a threat to their health. Even mildly cold temperatures of 60 to 65 degrees can be danger ous." People respond differently to extremes of heat and cold, depending on their age and health. The elderly are parti cularly vulnerable to cold, especially those who have dis eases that limit activity, men tal awareness or circulation, or who are taking certain types of drugs, such as pheno thiazines. that are used to treat anxiety, agitation and nausea, he said. At highest risk are the rela tively small number of aged persons who, for unknown reasons, can neither feel cold nor shiver and thus cannot produce body heat when they need it. Anyone who suspects hypo thermia in a person of any age should get emergency medical help at once. Koop said. Siens of hypothermia to watch for are: an unusual change in appearance or behavior dur ing cold weather: slow, some times irregular heartbeat: slurred speech: shallow, very slow breathing: sluggishness; and confusion. Dr. Koop offers the follow ing suggestions: While waiting for medical care, wrap the victim in a warm blanket, give him or her small quantities of warm food and non-alcoholic drink if the victim is alert: use hot water bottles or electric heating pads on the abdomen. How ever, never set an electric blanket or pad at high tem perature Do not rub the body. Do not place the victim in hot water as rapid reheating of the body is dangerous. Chances of full recovery from hypothermia depend on the severity and length of exposure to the cold as well as cunt. p. 6 t Tree Farm Grown Insulate your home today. Save on Energy Costs.
