POLICE
During the last seven weeks,
Nyssa's police officers and re
serve officers have been putting
in extra hours while two of
tiie department's newer officers
attended the Oregon Police Aca
demy, located at Oregon City.
LAST FRIDAY, the two of
ficers, Dick Cooper and Carl
Zellar, graduated from the aca
demy and returned to Nyssa.
Both were back on the job
by Tuesday, but they agreed to
take a few minutes of their own
time
to discuss their ex
periences at the academy with
The Journal
"The main purpoise of the
academy," said Cooper "is
creating more professionalism
in police officers."
"A higher degree of police
officers, plus just
give you
a basic concept of police work."
added Zellar. "You get the
basics there and get the rest
out here on the street."
BOTH OFFIC ERS had worked
for a number of months on the
Nyssa force before being sent
to the academy, but both felt
the experience was worthwhile.
Cooper and Zellar said that the
"supervised" training they re
ceived while here in Nyssa
Closely paralleled what they got
at the academy, but with more
detail added by the academy
instructors.
"I do have a little more
confidence," said Cooper.
"It’s an awfully good school,"
said Zellar, "but I would like
to see it about twenty-one
weeks instead of seven."
"We were getting 33-hour
classes in eight hours."
THE EMPHASIS throughout
the academy, said both offi
cers, was on "professionalism"
and the routine of the training
cycle was geared toward mak
ing professional conduct second
nature in the officers.
"We had classes in the new
Oregon Criminal Codes," said
Zellar "and classes in traffic
accident investigation, which
both of us have had to do while
on (tie job in Nyssa."
"We did cover procedures
in homicide investigations and
crime scene protection and pre
servation of evidence," said
Cooper, "some of which we
never did here tiecause It never
came up."
COOPER ANDZEL1AR said
that the academy demanded a

HOW’S YOUR HEARING?
Electronic hearing tests will
be given at the Stampeder Motel,
Ontario on July 21 from 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. by John Pier

fered as part of the better
iiearing workshop program now
being conducted nationwide.
Anyone who has trouble hear
ing or understanding is welcome
to come in for a test using the

your notes because you had to water
hand them in each week and
were graded on everything from
spelling to handwriting."
The emphasis was, naturally,
on practical police matters such
as criminal law, search proce
dures, auto check technique and
firearms training, to name just
a few. Both officers, however,
said that they were impressed
with some of the discussion
groups that the academy set up
for the men.
"In the course on deaf com
munication,” said Zellar "they
brought in people who were ac
tually deaf and we would talk
to them and try and learn how
to communicate with them."
Ali<i, ttw ff et said they
learned a great deal from in
formal discussion group ses
sions with men who had been
convicted of and were serving
time for various crimes, in
cluding men who had engaged in
"shoutouts"
cers.
Nyssa is a peaceful com-
munity and, hopefully, Co<f*r
and Zellar will never have to
use much of what they learned
at the Oregon Police Academy.
The city of Nyssa, however, can
point with pride to the fact that
all of its police officers have
been trained to meet the re
quirements of their very spe
cial "profession", law enfor
cement.
Why are prices high? Be

and able to pay high prices for

As long as people swarm into
meat markets,
grabbing fur
meat at any price, the butchers
would be either idiots or phil
anthropists to sell their pro
duct at a lower price.
We plan on a shortage of
meat with high prices as long
as congress with its infinate
wisdom keeps rigging the law
of supply and demand. About
40 years ago we discovered the
way to higtier pork prices was
to kill thousands of pigs and
we've been doing it ever since.
Up until this year, even with
planned regulation of crops we
have had a surplus. Now sud
denly comes a shortage. Ad
ministration is planning on
forcing every meh of our farm
lands into production next year.
< >f ( <>ui w tins
will be done
willingly because we will have
a federal guarantee on a good
price.
I suppose we'll sell
next years surplus to China or
Yugoslavia for nickels instead
of subsidizing
the cattlemen
with lower grain prices.
Of course tile people caught
in the middle will be those with
fixed incomes. Perhaps if we
lowered the wages of congress
instead of increasing them, con
gress might actually learn that
producing menus is a problem
with a lot of people. It really
is expensive to live in Wash
ington but there’s no doubt but
that a Sr. Citizen with $3,600
per year to spend foolishly looks
at things with different eyes than
a congressman with $42.500.00.
No wonder a massive groan Is
heard when congress Is planning
on an increase to $53,000.00.
With our economy in mind 1
feel that if we spend one dime
that we haven't in our pockets
toward rebuilding North Viet
nam we should be forced to
resort to the food supply that
I so well remember from the
depression.
In the 1930’s I
sold hundreds of cans of dog
food to people that had nu dog
in the family.
Times were
tough tlien and we have no
assurance they wun't get tough
again.

Mrs. Edna Lee Stam has
been named chairman of the
breath of Life Campaign to
fight children's lung diseases,
according to Don Schollander,
Honorary Chairman of the Ore
gon Chapter, National Cystic
Fibrosis Research Foundation.
Mrs. Stam will lead local
volunteers in raising funds to
support research and care pro
grams for children affected by
lung-damaging diseases like
cystic fibrosis, severe asthma,
chronic bronchitis, bronchiec
tasis, and a condition called
“childhood emphysema." Chil
dren in Oregon and Southwest
Washington are diagnosed and
followed attheC/FCenter, Uni
versity
of Oregon Medical
School.
A house-to-house appeal in
Nyssa and Ontario is scheduled
for September 10th through the
16th.
Cysitc fibrosis, an incurable
genetic disease, is inherited
when both parents carry the
recessive gene for C/F.
It
is believed that one in twenty
persons or 10 million Ame
ricans may carry theC/F gene,
usually without knowing it. Cur
rent research funded by the
National Cystic Fibrosis Re
search Foundation is seeking a
practical test to identify these
carriers.

USONS
FOR
Because of improved therapy
and constant research, many
C/F patients are living beyond
infancy to their teens and into
young adulthood. That same kind
of therapy is relieving and of
ten curing children suffering
from the other respiratory af
flictions whose symptoms re
semble those of C/F.
"Most people don’t realize
that there are six million chil
dren in the U. S. affected by
pulmonary illness," said Mrs.
Stam. "For some of these chil
dren, breathing is not the na
tural function we, who are lucky,
take for granted."
The Breath of Life Campaign
supports not only research, but
over 100 C/F Centers for diag
nosis and treatment across the
country.
