Culture at Carl Sandburg Paramedics little culture, a little history, a little literature and a lot of patriotism sparked the day at Carl Sandburg Elementary School in Hunter, Wednesday, Feb. 27th. Everywhere one looked were shades of red, white and blue as the students dressed in patriotic colors in anticipation of the afternoon assembly. The first question always asked by the principal, Mr. Elmond Wilson, of any incoming student at the school has always been, Who is Carl Sandburg, the man whose name A Most stuthe school bears? dents and even a few parents have been unsure of his identity. It was decided to change the situation this year with Operation Carl Sandburg. The principal, Mr. Wilson, and the PTA Officers and Board members discussed the possibility of obtaining a portrait of the poet and author, Carl Sandburg, to be hung in the school along with a matching portrait of the man whom he wrote so much about, Abraham Lincoln. This project was turned over the Citirl zenship Chairman, Mrs. De-Ve- (Nancy R.) Gunn. During the afternoon assembly, the fourth grade chorus sang three numbers, directed by Susan Hobson and accompanied by the band. The Utah Air National Guard had been contacted, and an essay contest was conducted as part of the Guard's proPatrigram "Operation otism. Ten were selected, one from each of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades and returned to the National Guard for the selection of the winner of a $25 savings bond. The semifinalists included Ruth Baldsemi-finalis- ts win, RaNee Ann Budge, Becky Christopherson, Mark Drab-ne- r, Billee Hancock, Kenneth Lawrence, Janette Martinez, Matt Mathison, Tammy McCauley and Sharlynn Nielson. The $25 savings bond award went to Mark Drabner, which was presented by National Guard State Chairman, Sgt. Craig Swigley. Dr. Edward Leuders of the University of Utah English Department gave a short biogra-ph- v on Carl Sandburg and read some of his poetry. At the close of the assembly the paintings of Carl Sandburg and Abraham Lincoln were presented to the school. y They were painted by Mr. Utah a Eaton, prominent Va-lo- artist of Midway. Train The daring paramedics portrayed in the weekly television show EMERGENCY will soon have nothing over a similarly trained squad of Salt Lake City firemen. N i n e t e e n paramedic trainees selected from volunteer candidates, all from the Salt Lake City and County Fire Departmenst, will undergo five months of specialized training in Los Angeles, California. The intensive training course is the same one given to Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics, upon whom the television series is based. The training, which will be conducted by the Los Angeles County Fire Department under the direction of Dr. Walter Graff, Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of South- ern California, is being financed through a $77,000 grant from the Intermountain Regional Medical Program.
