completed offering lhe nationally acclaimed educational program CHOICES to the area's high schools Delta and Millard This is the tilth consecutive year the program has been offered by the local telephone company The CHOICES program is geared to help students prepare for the "real world” by focusing on future consequences of today’s academic decisions The presentation consists of two class sessions Items covered during these factors include influencing Jasses decision making money management time management and how school decisions now can affect career opportunities later A key factor stressed in the presentation is that the successor an individual is highly dependent on their own personal self discipline The overall goal of the program is an attempt to make young people aware of the value of education and the need to stay in school The CHOICES was program founded by US West Education Foundation of Seattle Washington Contel has joined with several other corporations tliroughout the United States and Canada in making this program available to local areas Well over 1000000 the in have participated students CHOICES presentations since its beginning are "Educational opportunities widely available but students do not take advantage of them” said Contcl’s Fred Jackson who presents CHOICES locally "We believe the problem can be traced back to the decisions made before die students have an understanding of adult realities Mr Jackson noted that in some companies as many as 30 to 70 percent of the applicants for jobs fail simple math and basic skills tests "Many students do not realize that there are future consequences of today’s academic decisions” he said "It's not that these students lack the ability to learn Many of them simply question the relevance of school The real shock comes when they apply for a job that may require basic math and English skills We want to help students avoid surin prises by telling them what to expect the real world” An essential component of the program is that CHOICES is taught by a person from the business community While teachers have the skills to provide the students with such information it seems to have more impact when coming from someone “outside" “The program offers students and opportunity to hear a real world message from a real world messenger" They see the Contel representatives as individuals who have reached a degree of measurable success in their lives Mr Jackson concludes “That hopefully the students can see the importance s of the partnership in their local environment" HOT

accident Die victim’s fate could hinge on your actions during the mitial minutes after the accident said Darwin Jolley Utah Slate University extension agricultural engineering and machinery specialist

be disastrous If die victim is caught m machinery shut off the engine Do not attempt to extneate someone caught in a machine as it might exacerbate an injury When calling for help tell authorities that an extrication will be involved so they can fire or drowning do not move the victim Thu could aggravate an injury If die victim is bleeding it is critical that you stop die bleeding immediately Take a cloth or stnp of clothing press it over die wound and apply direct pressure If the victim is not breathing and you do not detect a pulse perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) If oxygen intake and blood flow are not soon brain damage and death are inevitable If a bedy part has been severed locate it so 'I can be cared for and possibly reattached by medical personnel Cover the victim with a blanket to keep him or her warm Try to reassure and clam die victim but do not offer food or drink Have emergency numbers posted by every phone including your local emergency rescue squad fire
