Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, November 4, 1992 - THREE
Portland kids visit Morrow County
Former HHS teacher honored
publication we clearly have the
best teachers in America selected
by the best students.”
The students were requested to
nominate teachers who “ made a
difference in their lives” by help
ing to shape their values, inspir
ing interest in a particular subject
and/or challenging them to strive
for excellence. Many of the
students commented about the en
thusiasm and knowledge their
teachers demonstrated in the
classroom, and many praised
their teachers for their ability to
relate to youngsters on a personal
as well as a professional level.
One student wrote about her
teacher saying, “ she made educa
tion something pleasurable, in
stead of a dreadful ordeal, by let
ting me spread my wings and
showing me the best way to fly.”
Former Heppner High School
teacher Michelle Warburton has
been selected for the state listing
of the “ Who’s Who Among
America’s Teachers” 1992.
All of the 65,000 teachers
honored were selected by their
former students who themselves
are currently listed in “ Who’s
Who Among American High
School Students,” or “ The Na
tional Dean’s List,” publications
which recognize the top five per
cent of our nation’s high school
and college students respectively.
Paul Krouse, publisher of
“ Who’s Who Among America’s
Teachers” said, “ There is no
greater honor teachers can
receive than to be recognized by
former students for their ex
cellence and dedication. In this

The Hallelujah kids from Portland performed at Hope and Valby Lutheran churches
The city and the country ex
changed a little bit of culture this
past weekend and both seemed to
benefit by the experience.
The Hallelujah Kids, a singing
group of the Redeemer Lutheran
Church of Northeast Portland
performed at concerts at Valby
and Hope Lutheran churches.
And, while they were here, they
got a taste of life in eastern
Oregon. The kids, ranging in age
from four to 11 years old, and
their three chaperones stayed in
local homes and were transported
around Morrow County on
several sightseeing tours. They
visited a wheat ranch and got to
taste some wheat kernels, toured
the Oregon Trail with guides
Robin Baker and her sons, Joey
and Corey and visited Wells
Springs pioneer cemetery and
Finley Buttes, where they saw
what happens to the garbage that
comes from the Portland area.
Darrel King, a member of the
Redeemer Lutheran Church and
driver of the van that brought the
kids to Morrow County, said that
the trip has “ been wonderful.
Everyone has made us feel very
welcome.” Also accompanying
the group were Cheryl Chatman,
who has been assistant choir
director almost since its beginn
ing two years ago, and Trina
Barber, mother of the four year
old Sharnell Brown, who sings
with the choir.
Chatman says the young choir
is “ a ministry in itself. They (the
kids) don’t ever say they don’t
want to sing. They feel part of the
group. It’s more than singing, it’s
learning about self esteem.” She
added that while the kids come
from loving homes, some are
from disadvantaged areas and are
exposed to the problems of the in
ner city.
The group connected with
Morrow County through Janice
Carlson, a niece of Louis Carlson
of Heppner. Janice is on the
board of the Redeemer Lutheran
Church.
Besides Sharnell, who along
with her mother stayed with the
Shirley and Roger Palmer fami
ly other memnbers of the choir
include: Gabriel and Chris
Lathrop, 8, who stayed with the
Molly and cecil Rill family;
Princess Montgomery 7, stayed
with the Palmers; Princess
Robinson, 9, Danita Flint 11 and
Ivy Flint, 8, all stayed with the
Don Peterson family; Alisha
Beasley and Shawnta Barber,
both 11 stayed with Clint and
Sarah Carlson and Paul Spann. 8,
and Rachawn Barber 11, stayed
with Pastor Stan Hoobing and his
family.
The kids and their chaperones
also enjoyed a hot dog lunch at
Beecher’s Cafe in lone and at
tended a potluck at Valby church.
An energetic bunch of kids, they
seemed to be having a good time
and said they liked Morrow
County. They were not without
concerns, however, that their
parents were worried about them
being so far away from home.
Louis Carlson said that the
church hopes to reciprocate and
send a group of kids from Mor
row County to the Portland area.

Most Common
Fungal Skin Infection
Athlete’s foot is the most com
monly occurring skin infection
caused by a fungus. The medical
term for athlete’s foot is tinea
pedis. This slightly contagious
infection often results from con
tact with shed skin fragments from
affected individuals. Specific fungi
responsible for athlete’s foot in
clude Tricophyton rubrum,
Tricophyton mentagrophytes, and
E piderm ophyton flo cco su m .
These small organisms thrive in a
moist environment, such as from
highly sweaty feet or from failure
to dry between the toes thoroughly
after swimming ortaking a shower.
Typically, athlete’s foot causes
itching, burning, and scaling be
tween the toes. Groups of blisters
and peeling o f the skin may occur
on the bottoms of the feet. The
skin between the toes becomes red
and often cracks. In the more
extreme cases, the toenails may
become infected, overgrown, and
discolored.
In order to avoid the spread of
infection, the feet should be kept
clean and dry. Application of an
tifungal powder or cream will of
ten help eliminate the fungi caus-
ing the infection. Nonprescription
medicines for the treatment of
athlete's foot include undecylenic-
acid, tolnaftate, clotrimazole, and
miconazole. More severe cases of
athlete's foot may require soaking
the feet in Burow's solution and
taking griseofuhin. an oral anti^
fungal medicine.
