In order to aid with the teach
ing Of the functions of the heart.
Virginia Heart Association gives
teaching models of the human
heart TO high schools, colleges,
and schools Of nursing where
these teaching aids are need
ed. SO far as the association is

them Recently Sprinerg pre-
scented one of these models to
the Graduate School of Rehablli-
tatlon CounSeling at Richmond
Professional Institute for use in
the medical information classes
for counselorS.
1T is well known that more
people are disabled by diseases
of the heart and blood vessels
than by any other cause"
Springer said. Fortunately,
with increased knowledge and
skllls in the treatment and man
agement OF cardiacS. many who
formerly would have been total
crlpples can now, be rehabilitat-
ed to the point of leading Use
ful and productive lives.
A native of Buckingham,

outlined this week by Jennings
B. Springer, director of rehabili-
:ation for the association.
In the interview. Springer ex-
planned that although the organi-
cation does not work directly
with cardiac patients, his de
partnent provides many ser
vices to the public which are
designed to help cardiacs live
happier, more useful lives.
He continued by pointing out
that films. booklets, talks by
qualified speakers in the field of
rehabilitation, and consulta-
ton with persons who work di-
rectly with cardiac patients are
all part of the Heart AsSocia-
tons rehabilitation program.
Springer recommended the
following films for free loan to
clubs and church groups, high
schools. colleges. and schools of
nursing: Second Chance"
Strokes. Take Three Hearts ;"
and Working with Your Heart"

When we talked of an interview she protested that her life had been unglamorous, unexciting. We assured her it was not necessary to win the local turkey shoot or climb an alp to be interesting. People are interesting and interested, in many and di- verse ways.
 CDR and Mrs. Gotch transferred here last December from Patuxant Naval Air Station some sixty miles from Washington, D. c. "We were

Designs most commonly used are the Thunderbird, Raven, Frog, Beaver, Whale and Octopus. There are many interesting Tlingit and Haida legends about these birds and animals that have come down through the years.
 The students do the work during after7school hours, receiving a DOT ton of the money realized from each sale. Another portion is used for materials in the work shop, while the balance is set aside for the proposed new Student Union Center.
 The work is being done by both girls and boys, many of whom earn much of their tuition in this manner. Plaques in the shape of a shield are also made.
 Additional information and leaf lets may be obtained by writing the Sheldon Jackson Junior Col lege, Sitka, Alaska. Prices listed in the leaflet we received seem very reasonable for these items that would add much to collections of Alaskan artistry =.
