Some Medicines Can
Cause Fever
According to a recent report in
Postgraduate Medicine, one in ten
institutionalized patients has a re
action to one or more medicines
that causes fever. Drug-related fe
ver can be very expensive, adding
to the total cost of care by increas
ing the length of hospital stays and
resulting in the use of additional
laboratory tests, x-rays, and medi
cations.
Phone 503 989-8221
Toll Free 1-800-452-7396
According to a recent article in
American Pharmacy, there are five
types of reactions to medicines that
can result in fever:
W asco P arts O utlet
1. Hypersensitivity reactions oc
cur when an antigen-antibody com
plex forms in the body. Prescrip
tion drugs that may cause such
reactions and fever include quini-
dine, methyldopa, and phenytoin.
Mon-Friday
Sat.
7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
7 a.m.-5 p.m.
2. Idiosyncratic reactions de
velop from inherited genetic de
fects. An example is fever caused
by a reaction to sulfonamide.

3. Administration-related fever
can occur when impurities (which
occur in some antibiotics and can
cer medicines) are injected.
4. Pharmacologic fever occurs
when antibiotics such as penicillin
kill organisms which, in turn, re
lease fever-producing toxins.
5. An increased metabolic rate
such as from the use of thyroid
medicines may increase the body
temperature.
Wagon train celebrates old west
For the 12th year, the longest
running wagon train in the United
States will offer participants a
chance to experience the old
W est. S p o n so red by the
Pendleton Round-Up and Happy
Canyon, the trip is slightly more
luxurious than that of the travelers
on the Oregon Trail 150 years
ago. Scott Sager, coordinator of
the four-day ride, promises par
ticipants the experience o f a
lifetime.
The wagon train, which begins
June 27, includes eight to 12
wagons and about 100 people on
horseback. The group travels ap
proximately 60 miles, beginning
at Penland Lake near Ukiah and
finishing at Wineland Lake near
Heppner. “ The route changes
every year.” says Sager, “ but the
scenery is always breathtaking.”
The idea for the wagon train
was conceived in 1982 by
volunteers involved with the
Pendleton Round-Up and Happy
Canyon. During the first few
years, 80 percent o f the par
ticipants were local residents.
Now, according to Sager, that
number has reversed itself with
80 percent of the participants
coming from the 1-5 corridor.
Most of the riders have been on
the trip before and come back
year after year.
The trip is open to anyone, but
participants are required to bring
their own horse. And while city
folk are welcome, Sager stresses
that this is not an activity for “ ci
ty slickers” . “ It’s not a ride for
beginners,” he says. “ Par-
Ryan Currin
gains status

Community College in Gresham
Oregon show Ryan M. Currin of
Heppner received Institutional
Status with a 3.42 GPA for 93-94
school year. Currin is a business
administration major.
ticipants need to have experience
with horses and riding.”
The trip includes certain lux
uries that early settlers didn’t
have. Wagon train participants
enjoy three square meals a day,
catered by Kessler Catering of
M ilton-Freewater. The menu in
cludes prime rib, barbecued
chicken and pork chops, and
fresh salmon.
Each evening, the group
gathers at the campfire for live
entertainment and sing-a-longs.
Guests are encouraged to join in.
Many bring their own musical in
struments, banjos, fiddles, guitars
and harmonicas.
Unlike the early settlers on the
Oregon Trail, this group gets a
hot shower every evening, thanks
to a shower truck that sets up at
the campsite. Except for the
shower and catering truck, rub
ber tires aren’t allowed. All the
w agons have steel rim m ed
wheels.
The native American tribes of
the area have long been involved
with the wagon train. Several of
the wagon trains have traveled
through the Umatilla Indian
reservation. Sager recalls a year
when the wagon train visited the
reservation the day the tribal chief
died. Because Indian custom re
quires the tribe to grieve for a
year, the wagon train visited the
tribe again a year and a day later.
On that day, the group joined the
tribe in a traditional Indian peace
ceremony followed by a celebra
tion and salmon feed.
“ W e’ve experienced every
thing except childbirth on these
trips,” says Sager. “ W e’ve even
had a wedding for a couple who
met the previous year on the
wagon train.”
Sager says this year’s trip is
almost full, but anyone intersted
in learning more about the wagon
train may call the Pendleton
R ound-U p office 1-800-45-
RODEO for more information.
