church. Scruggs is a former Cer­
tified Public Accountant who
worked many years with a firm
in Portland and had clients in the
Hermiston-Pendleton area. After
several years as a CPA and an ac­
tive layperson in his church, he
felt the call of God to serve in the
ordained ministry. His wife Judy,
worked in Brookings while he
went to seminary in the Bay Area
for Vh. years. He completed his
Engagements
academic work around Christmas
of 1993 and began his internship
at Boardman the first of January.
He will finish in December and
wait for a call to parish ministry,
hopefully in the Pacific

along 1—84 to Ontario, will
preach in Boardman.
Food handling class offered
E.coli, Streptococcus, Cam­
pylobacter and Listeria, frequent
sources of foodborne illness, are
unwelcome visitors at any com­
munity event.
Will you, or someone you
know, be involved with food
sales at a community event this
year? Lots of people volunteer at
or purchase from food booths
each year. Fourth of July,
Watermelon Festival, Horse
Show, Morrow County Fair and
Rodeo, and Wee Bit O’lreland
are some local events that involve
lots of volunteers to prepare and
serve food at community events.
Community volunteers also
prepare and serve food for
various bazaars, fund raisers and
banquets on a year round basis.
Because food committee chairs
can change annually,and the pool
of volunteers changes from year
to year, it is critical for the public
health that safe food handling
principles be followed consistent­
ly, said Carol Michael Bennett,
Morrow County Extension agent.
“ Basics of Food Handling
Principles” will be taught June 23
in the A.C. Houghton School
cafeteria. North Main St., Irrigon
from 7-9 p.m. Chuck Stahl,
Oregon Health Division instruc­
tor promises that “ it will be in­
teresting and it will be fun.”
Stahl is an environmental
health specialist but food booth
managers know him as the
“ health department inspector” .
Stahl says he is anxious to help
food booth organizers set up their
organizations to operate safely
and has helpful suggestions if
people need to improvise equip­
ment for temporary use.
There is no charge for the class
but pre-registration will help to
have enough materials on hand
for everyone. To register call the
Morrow County Extension of­
fice, 676-9642 or 1-800-342-
3664. The class is co-sponsored
by the Oregon State University
Extension Service, Oregon
Health Division and Morrow
County
Public
Health
Department.
Angels topic o f study group
zn o
The adult study group at the
United Church of Christ in lone
will be studying angels in Biblical
literature during June. The first
meeting will be held Tuesday,
June 14 and will continue on June
21 and 28. All meetings begin at
7:30 p.m in the church basement.
Those attending should bring a
Bible if they have one.
The summer intern, Deborah
Laporte, will lead the group.
Laporte is in her second year of
seminary, studying at Union
Theological Seminary in New
York City.
The group will be looking at
the stories about angels, trying to

see what is similar about them,
and learning what the scripture
has to tell us about these
mysterious messengers of God.
Although the study is in a Chris­
tian context, anyone who has an
interest in this area is invited to
come and share. Angels have
fascinated people from Biblical
times to the present, says a
spokesperson. In the past few
years there have been several new
books written about angles, the
image of the angelic ones have
reappeared in popular art and
now the most popular play on
Broadway, “ Angels in Amer­
ica” , has as one of its main
characters and themes, a beautiful
angel who crashes through the
ceiling. There are many myths
and traditions about angels, as
well as personal experiences
which testify to the existence of
beings who are present but not
“ seen” , continued the spokesper­
son for the group.
The Bible adds to this body of
knowledge. Everyone is invited
to join the group as they seek
more information. For more in­
formation leave a message on the
church phone 422-7530 and
Laporte will call you back.

Asthma is the most common
chronic childhood disease. It is es­
timated that 10 percent of children
in the United States have asthma.
This condition accounts for over
20 percent of all grade school ab­
sences and about 15 percent of all
hospi tal i zations i n vol v i ng ch i ldren.
Factors that may bring on an
asthma attack in children include
upper respiratory tract infections,
especially viral infections; tem ­
perature changes, especially cold
dry air; exercise or increased activ­
ity; irritants such as cigarette smoke;
and allergic reactions. House dust
mites, animal fur, and plant pollen
are common causes of allergy in
children. Cow s milk may be a
problem for infants.

Asthma treatment in children
should be based on the severity of
the condition. British researchers
in a recent issue of British Journal
o f Hospital Medicine recommend
inhaled beta agonists such as
albuterol for infrequent or mild
asthma. C romolyn sodium, a medi -
cine that helps prevent airway nar­
rowing, is recommended for fre­
quent or moderate episodes. Not
all children respond the same way
to cromolyn. Therefore, a low dose
of inhaled steroid such as beclo-
methasone may be a good alterna­
tive to cromolyn sodium. Severe
asthma may require more frequent
doses of inhaled steroids. In addi­
tion, oral steroids given every other
day may be needed.
