David and April Hilton-Sykes, Publishers Letters to the Editor Heppner descendants plan Heppner visit To the Editor: Working with other members of the family, including Elinor Cohn Shank who lived in your town. I have pieced together a large part of the Heppner family tree going back to 1700 and which includes Henry Heppner. As you probably know our roots can be traced to a group of villages in the province of Posen in what was then Prussia. Much of the information came from the records of Rabbi Dr. Aron Heppner who died in 1938 and left an archive of papers which survived the Holocaust by being carried across the world by his daughter (now 90 years old) as she fled with her family, and ended up in Israel where they re mained forgotten for nearly 50 years until I went through them with her in 1986. Since then I have computeriz ed the mass of information on about 400 members of the fami ly, and I shall be bringing the family tree (approx. 12 feet long) w ith me when I visit the town of Heppner on 11 and 12 of April. I was interested to receive a cutting from the Heppner Gazette reporting that Gary Heppner had visited the town of Heppner a couple of years ago and explain ed that he was the descendent of a brother of Henry Heppner. We had known that Henry’s brother Kaskel had been in the family group which had come to the USA, but the only informa tion which 1 had discovered was that he had not gone to the West Coast with his brothers and sisters and had still been alive in 1905 when his brother Henry Heppner died. Apart from this scrap of in formation all trace of Kaskel’s family had been lost. I am assuming that Gary may represent a “ lost” branch of the family descending from Henry’s brother Kaskel and I wonder whether your newspaper has any other records of members of the Heppner family who have visited the town over the years. My wife and I are coming to the USA in April to visit my daughter Carrie who is at college in Santa Barbara, CA before visiting the town of Heppner with Elinor Shank on 11/12 April, my cousin Kim Heppner and his wife, who now live in New Zealand, are coming with us on our “ Pilgrimage.” The Heppners from England and New Zealand are all very much looking forward to coming to your town and I hope that the Heppner Gazette may have some information which can lead to our filling in some of the gaps in the historic Heppner Family tree.

Box 170 Boardman, Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 Aspirin and Heart Attack Prevention Aspirin is approved for the prevention of “mini-strokes” or TIAs (transient ischemic attacks). While it has not been proven that aspirin prevents the occurrence of TIAs, studies have shown that the frequency of attacks in men can be decreased with aspirin use. It is not clear whether aspirin has this same protective effect in women. Aspirin also may be useful in the prevention of heart attacks in persons who have survived a heart attack. In a very large multicenter study, patients who took 162.5 mg of aspirin daily for one month had a lower death rate than the control (non-aspirin) group. Other studies have shown the same result with a dose of 325 every day or 325 mg every-other-day. Some research suggests that a daily dose of 81 mg may provide a similar effect. In a study of over 22,000 men, 325 mg of aspirin taken every other day resulted in a 44 percent reduc tion in risk for heart attack in men who had never experienced an at tack. Only men older than 50 years of age experienced the reduced risk. In addition, men who received aspirin every day had increased risk for bleeding and stroke. For this reason, many physicians carefully select patients from whom they recommend aspirin therapy. Other factors that may help prevent heart attacks include smoking cessation, weight loss in obese persons, and a reduction in blood cholesterol levels.
