Easter Seals Provide Aid An estimated 600,000 Oregon ians will receive Easter Seals in the mail during the next few days Hal Laman, Portland business executive and president of the Easter Seal Society for Crippled Children and Adults of Oregon, expressed hope that the “people of the state will respond gener ously.” Laman pointed out that the sale of Easter Seals is the society’s principal source of revenue for financing such so ciety projects as: 1. Children’s Hospital school in Eugene, where youngsters from various parts of Oregon receive occupational, physical a n d speech therapy as well as the three R’s. The school also has a learning disabilities center for children with perception prob lems. 2. Camp Easter Seal, a sum mer camp on the Oregon Coast, near Reedsport, which accomo dated 156 campers last year, 82 of whom were in wheelchairs. 3. Five mobile therapy clinics which travel all areas of Oregon offering physical therapy treat ments prescribed by physicians. 4. An equipment loan pool that includes 900 wheelchairs. 350 walkers and 250 miscellaneous pieces ranging from crutches to hydraulic lifters. Over 1.600 persons were aided last vear 5. A speech and hearing center for pre-school children in Grants Pass. School Bus Survey Covers Fatalities A school bus survey was taken for the years of 1970. ’71 and '72, of the fatalaties occurring in the unloading and loading area of the buses. More occurred going home from school than going to school or on activity trips, all three years. In 1970 and ’71 more female children were killed than male children but in 1972 more male children were killed. The higest number of fatalities runs in the 5-8 year-old group Total deaths have been on a decrease for the last three years with 1970 having 75 deaths, 1971 having 62, and 1972 having 58 This survey covered all 50 states and Washington D.C. but only 26 states reported fatalities. This survey covered fatalities only, not injuries, and no infor mation was given oil 1973. This data was complied by Harold Pellegrino, Asst Director of Highway Safety, Kansas High way Commission Last "5th Quarter" Night Be Extended On Friday, March 1 after the victory of a home game against Warrenton, another 5th quarter was held, although possibly the last for this year It was held at Mike Johnson’s home on Bridge Street There was fairly a large number attending although not as many as expected Mr Trosen was the guest speaker from Michigan His son Jim was also with him. Jim lead the group in the singing of songs after his father spoke. Refreshments consisted of dozens of cinnamon rolls and various kinds of pop. Both were enjoyed greatly £>y the guests Hopefully, the group plans on having a 5th Quarter from time to time even if there won 't be any more games for a while. The group wishes to invite everyone to the following 5th Quarters Ocrnonia Eagle THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 1974 5 out bankruptcy on all sch<M*l accounts.

When the team arrived, they found out, that besides the regular Varsity game, a JV game would be played also This came as a shock to the team, because usually there’s only one game played, and that’s the Varsity. However, the Loggerettes did pull through with a win even though they only had ten girls. Some Varsity players substitut ed for the JV and all JV players substituted in the Varsity game. The JV game was pretty nerve-racking. The first quarter was tied 3 to 3. The second quarter wasn't much better as the girls made 4 points to Jewell’s 3. leaving the score 7 to 6 at the half At the end of the third quarter the team started to pull away from the Blue Jays with the score being 13 to 11. Vernonia made 2 points in the last quarter to Jewell’s- 0, and ended the game with the final score of 15 to 11 Vernonia’s favor. Scoring for the game was Karen Enneberg, 5 points; Noell Studevant, 2 points; Evan Per- syn, 2 points; Sheryl Ray, 2 points; Connie Kyser, 2 points; and Marge Tronson 2 points. The Varsity started out poorly in the first quarter with the score being 8 to 4 Jewell’s favor. At Ihe end of the second quarter the girls started making some pro gress and made 7 points to Jewell’s 3, tieing the game up 11 to 11. Third quarter ended with the idea in both teams that it was still anybody’s ball game as the score was 17-16 Jewell’s favor Fourth quarter was found to be in favor of the Loggerettes as three of Jewell’s top players fouled out and left them playing with four girls. The Loggerettes made 7 points, to the Blue Jays 3 and won the game with the score in Vernonia’s favor 23-20. High scorer of the game was Sheryl Ray with 9 points. Mrs. Dennis Peterson was substitute coach for the Logger ettes and apparently did very well. Music Room Lacks Important Details Having a class in Ihe Band and Chorus room is like being iso lated. One reason the room is so isolated is because it sits in Ihe corner of the main building and to get back into the main building students have to walk outside and enter at the south entrance or go through the gym, which is usually prohibited by Ihe instructor Then there is the problem of not being able to hear the announcements because the speaker does not put out enough volume to compete with noise in the room The only dangerous aspect of the room is the failure to provide a fire alarm in the room. When students are playing instruments or singing they can't hear the main school alarm system. Many times fellow students have come to the door to tell (he students inside that the fire alarm has gone off. The Band and Chorus room is one of the better rooms and is excellent for its use, despite some of the above defects Nemolog Staff Seeks Lost Class Photos The Memolog Staff is trying to gather the pictures of the class of 1970 to be hung in the hall with the rest of the pictures of the classes that have graduated. Last year Mrs. Alvida Hearing gathered the pictures and took them to Bruno Studio’s to be made up so they could be hung in the hall. Bruno made the pic tures up in color and put them on cardboard but it was too long to be hung in the hall. So it had to be sent back to be remade Within a few months Bruno Studio’s took MARR & STAFFORD MEAT CO.
