Gazette-Times 676-9228 University of Idaho football coach Chris Tormey recently announced the signing of 24 football recuits, which included Grant Wright of Lewiston High School. Grant, the son of Dean Wright, Heppner, and Cindy Rosselle, Lewiston, ID, will receive a full- nde scholarship at the University o f Idaho. His grandparents are Albert and Beverly Wright and Dave and Fran Barnett, all of Heppner. This is the third time in five years that UI recruits included Lewiston High School players. Wright, a six-foot, two-inch, 210-pound linebacker, will become the fourth Lewiston High School graduate on UI's current roster. He was a first-team all-inland Empire and all-North Idaho selection this past season. He was also the IEL defensive player of the year and earned second team all-state honors. He had 203 tackle points this season, along with nine tackles for losses and six quarterback sacks. Tormey said that Wnght played defensive end as a junior and probably would not have been recruited as a defensive end, but his coach moved him to linebacker his senior year. He had the second most tackles at Lewiston High School. Thé player who had the most tackles played linebacker all three years. Protective suits pass Arm y test Mark IV Chemical Protective Suits that emergency first responders would wear in the unlikely event of a chemical release at the Umatilla Chemical Depot have passed stringent operational tests conducted by the Army, according to a Morrow County Emergency Management news release. The "Man-in- Simulant" test, along with the chemical warfare agent testing of Mark IV material swatches, completes the requirement for qualification of Personal Protective Equipment for use in the Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program. The British Mark IV Suit is a disposable protective garment designed to be worn over all operational clothing. When worn with respirator, gloves and over boots, the suit protects against a wide variety of chemical warfare agents, including blister agents (mustard), and the nerve agents GB and VX, which are stored at the Umatilla Chemical Depot. The Man-in-Simulant testing defined the proper way to wear the suit and how the total ensemble performs in a chemical environment. The person wearing the suit has several absorbent patches placed on his body. The suit is then exposed to a chemical called methyl salicylate. The patches are removed and tested to make sure the suit keeps vapors away from the body. The other test involved cutting out pieces of the suit and exposing them to the chemical agents GB, VX and mustard. This test determined that chemicals will not break through the overgarment's material. The suits are effective for up to 24 hours in a chemical environment and have a shelf life of eight years. Emergency responders must be medically screened and receive appropriate training before the suits are issued. "They are lightweight, less expensive than other suits, easy and cool to wear, have a long shelf life and take up very little storage space," said Dan Knoll, Morrow County public information officer. "One hundred and twenty suits have been ordered and should arrive within the next 30 to 60 days."
