Second in a series Tina Heger is an outgoing 16-year-old from Hamburg, Germany, who is doing her senior year at Park City High School as an American Field Service (AFS) exchange ex-change student. One of seven foreign students at the high school this year, Tina, like many of the others, put in a special request for a mountain moun-tain community because she loves to ski. Skiing, however, is not her only interest or accomplishment. accom-plishment. She is an avid tennis player and is practicing prac-ticing every day with the high school girls' tennis team. She loves sports, and sees herself as more oriented orien-ted to the outdoors than to academics. "I'm so depressed," she said Tuesday. "In English today, there was a spelling test and I only got one word right." She does, however, speak excellent English, after af-ter six years of the subject in school, and she is so comfortable comfor-table with the language that she already has trouble switching to German. Tina's father is a doctor, her mother, a housewife. She has two sisters, 24 and 14, and a brother, 25. The whole family, she said, plays tennis together under the excellent coaching of her brother, a tennis pro. In Park City, Tina lives with Robert and Sharon Richards, whose five children all are younger than Tina. "I'm very happy there," Tina said. "But when I first came to school, I was very lonely. It's much better now, but at first, the other kids were friendly but not in- r IlKiiSllWlIlilli V Tina Heger 'This is a test' A statewide test of the civil defense warning system will be conducted on Sept. 22, according to an announcement announce-ment made by Dennis Pace, Summit County civil defense director. In a number of communities communi-ties throughout the state, sirens will sound and in other locations broadcasting stations sta-tions which are a part of the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) may broadcast broad-cast a special message when the "warning" is received. The general public is not expected to take any action during this exercise. Outdoor sirens may sound when the simulated attack warning is received, Pace said. In an actual attack, the warning signal, a three to five-minute wavering tone, means people should go immediately to the nearest public fallout shelter or take cover in the best protected location in their homes or place of work. People would also be encouraged to turn on their radios and listen for essential emergency information. in-formation. The exercise will begin with a message from the civil defense National Warning Warn-ing Center located at the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) Hqtrs. near Colorado Colo-rado Springs, Colorado. The message, which will go to six states, will inform the recipients reci-pients that a "Checkerboard" "Checker-board" exercise is in progress. pro-gress. "Checkerboard" means that the exercise is for a simulated attack on the United States. The message will be received re-ceived at the state and local warning points simultaneously simul-taneously via special telephone tele-phone lines that are part of the National Warning System. Warning points will pass the "Checkerboard" to local officials and organizations. organiza-tions. The purpose of the exercise exer-cise is to provide practice for the warning point operators, usually located in the Highway High-way Patrol, Sheriff, Fire and Police Departments, in following fol-lowing their procedures, according to Pace. It is also important to periodically acquaint the public with the system. An evaluation of the performance per-formance of the system will be made by the state and by the Federal Emergency Management Agency in Denver, the sponsor of the exercise. terested in friendship. The other foreign students had the same problem. "But then I found it must come from myself. I expected expec-ted friendship right away, but you can't expect that. Now, I ask if I can go with them somewhere, and it's really much better." Tina arrived a month ago and already has been to Lake Powell, for her first try at water skiing, as well as St. George and Bryce Canyon National Park, with which she was extremely impressed. im-pressed. Her favorite subject in school is chorus, a new urogram launched this year, and she's excited about singing with the new group in its public performances planned for the Christmas season. When the Park City senior class graduates next spring, Tina will be among them. American students will go on to college, but Tina must return for three more years of preparatory school before she enters the university. Her ambition is to become a doctor with a specialty in cancer research, but plans also include marriage and a family. "I want children four of them," she said. Special Olympics An announcement is expected this month on whether Park City Ski area has won its bid to host the 1985 International In-ternational Special Olympics winter games. The office of Utah Special Olympics in Provo said officials of-ficials from Washington, D.C. were expected to meet with executive director Jim Murphy one more time before an announcement on site selection is made. Also bidding for the games were Sun Valley, Idaho, and Shawnee, Pa. The games, held every four years, will involve some 750 mentally retarded athletes in alpine and crosscountry cross-country skiing and ice skating. The event would im-volve im-volve the participation of the entire area in providing host families for the athletes and volunteer workers for the games themselves, Murphy said.
