J MEDFORD MAIL TRIB0NE. MEDFORD, OREGON THURSDAY. JUNE 10. IMS D 3 rtificates Given Students of Aquatic Course at Emigrant Students of the Jarkson County Red Cross Youth Aquatic Course finished up a busy week with a graduation ceremony on the Southern Oregon college campus last week. Dr. Elmo Stevenson, college president and chairman of the Jackson county chapter of the Red Cross, presented certifi cates and insignias to the 44 students who had participated in the week-long training ses sion. A total of 35 first aid cer tificates were awarded, 25 senior lifesaving certificates, 7 junior lifesaving certificates and 33 basic canoeing certifi cates. Five students received their water safety instructor certifi cates with three additional in structors receiving certifica tion for having reviewed the training. Six new water safe . ty aides were also certified during the ceremony. ' Save Life The week-long program this year proved to be an exciting one, according to Mrs. Roy Wilkes, director of the school. On Tuesday the students per formed a rescue on Emigrant lake and were responsible for saving the life of Gerald Chambers of Junction City. Thursday noon, members of jfAhe Red Cross board of direct ors, conducted their regular monthly meeting on the shore of the lake in order to observe the students in training. Lifesaving students demon strated the methods of enter ing the water, approaches, the various releases used in breaking holds, a number of carries and ibe methods of artificial respiration. Of special interest to the board was the demonstration of a mass bottom search which was done by a line of swimmers doing repeated sur face dives and groping along the bottom with their hands. This is used in areas where it is impossible to see the bot tom and when the exact loca tion of a drowning victim is unknown. This is the method that these same students used when they recovered Gerald Chambers from the lake. Demonstrate Boat Rescue Robert Dionnc, Red Cross area representative, had stu dents demonstrate boat res cue, how to hand paddle a submerged craft to shore and a group of the more advanced students participated In an unusual race. .On the starting signal, the one-man crews mounted the gunwales, near the stern, and propelled the canoes toward the finish by alternately bend ing and straightening their knees to bounce the canoe along. This is a sport that should not be attempted by the unskilled, it requires ex ceptional agility and coordi nation and compentency in swimming as well as canoe ing, according to Dionne. Mrs. Wilkes said the pro gram has proven so success ful during the past two years that plans are already under way for a session next yeard. HUNT CUTTING BURGLAR Wichita, Kan.
