This fact was stressed recently at a conference on aging condu c t e d cooperatively at Richfield by Utah State University Extension Services and the Utah Division of Aging.

Sand parents meet iSHonday to formulate trip plans fects. Public Health Nurse Frances Fitch is reminding everyone that the vaccine is not the same vaccine that was given for red measles. This vaccine was not developed and approved until 1969. Many tragic birth defects were caused by the Rubella epidemic of 1965 and another epidemic is expected this year.

Maughn of Utah State University. Melvin A. White, director, Utah Division of Aging, encouraged establishment of lo cal councils on aging to determine local needs and programs. Clinton Hess, associate regional commissioner, Commission on Aging, Denver Office, cited national studies indicating that older people are mentally and physically healthier when they can keep active and feel useful. It is the best prevention of becoming senile. Local leaders cited the fact that by utilizing schools, churches and other available buildings there are existing facilities available that can be used for activities and programs by the senior citizens. $ p.m. a meeting will be held in the high school library to further the plans for the Calgary trip.
