Show Association screens lungs The American Lung Association, in conjunction with Albertson's North Salt Lake Distribution Center, will celebrate the association's associa-tion's second annual smoking NonDependence Day. In honor of the event, Albertson's Distribution Center, located at 620 W. 600 N has agreed to set aside its lunchroom facilities between 1 1 a.m. and 1 p.m. July 5 to accom modate a pulmonary screening machine. The pulmonary machine tests a variety of conditions including lung strength and carbon monoxide levels within the lungs. Testing is free and open to the public. The Lung Association will also provide a questionnaire which helps determine nicotine dependence. According to Garth DeVries, program coordinator, the Lira Association's goal is to provide information in-formation on its smoking cessation programs. DeVries feels the Alberton's location will be effective. "U; year we held the event in a park and only about 10 people came, e should be affecting a lot more people peo-ple than what we did last year,' said DeVries. |
