Show Desert drifts Ditto employees learn resuscitation techniques Ditto tour a success by Billy Armstrong Wouldnt you know!? T one time of the year when 1 Boyd Olsen could scheduli trip for the Camp Follower, without undue interferes, with his work coincided wit our annual Spring Snow! HOWEVER, Betty Knc, reports that the Apr. 2 trip wr an outstanding success. Unfortunately, your correspondent was at home with a sick spouse and missed the whole show. Through the good offices of Betty I shall pass on a report of the trip, and with those of you (along with me who could not make it) I shall eat my heart out for missing a marvelous adventure. Twenty nine ladies made the trip complete with an MP escort. The bus broke down at the Ditto Cate but the ubiquitous little yellow machine appeared as if by magic and got the Inis to the airfield. The group was welcomed by Major Miller and Mr. Olsen and the tour proceeded as if nothing had happened. The ladies climbed to the control tower which gave them an excellent overview of the Ditto area. Depending on whom you talk to there were at least ninety steps! The ladies were then divided into four groups and alternately visited the Chem Lab, Meteorology, photo lab, and measurement and instruments. All very interesting and very confusing to those- of us who are not scientifically inclined. One of the highlights was the theolite which was beautifully explained by Chuck Dewitt. AT OUR last luncheon Marilyn Manning of Utah Power and Light Company was the featured speaker. Mrs. Manning gave a most illuminating talk (no - ;b f & .& j,- - v- JV- - ' The Deseret Sampler, Friday, April 5, 1974 pun intended). We all know that Dugway has hard water. Would you believe that it takes 20 drops of pure soap to get just a little bit of cleaning power in a glass of water? After Mrs. Mannings talk we all know how to get rid of ring-- a round- - the-- collar, dingy whites, and other wash-da- y horrors. Our March luncheon was enhanced by Marcia Miller and Sandy Johnsons table decorations in an Easter motif. This reminded us all that spring is on its way. (If winter comes, can spring etc., etc.). A farewell gift was presented to Debbie Aiken, who is leaving us for the charms of Bundesrepublic Deutschland. Good News! The Dugway Wives Club has been invited by the Fort Douglas womens Club to their April 10th lunch- eon which is a Fashion Show by Kimrey. For reservations call Betty Knox, X2927, or Marty Livingston, X2765. Lets all car-poto' Sal Lake and have a good time. Reference the preceding, we may get some ideas for our own Sew and Show luncheon of April 16th. Please call the above two members for reservations. Our sew and show is for all ages - no one has made a rule that streaking is only for college students. Dugway employees have brought medical aid a little closer for accident victims in the Ditto Technical Center. How? By learning valuable resuscitation techniques. Because of the isolation of many work areas in the Center, it is often several minutes before an ambulance can arrive in an emergency. And those minutes can mean the difference between life and death. BARBARA GILMORE, a nurse at the U.S. Army Hospital at Dugway, recognized this problem, and did something about it. Through the Army Suggestion Program, she proposed that a course in cardiopulmonary resuscitation be given for Ditto workers. Her suggestion was approved. 0 in the Ditto Fire Station.

Ford of the Hospital noted the tremendous response to the class by Ditto workers. The Safety Office, which helped coordinate the class, also cited the good representation of work areas for the course. Mrs. Gilmore said that the students were very enthusiastic. class, Many had the impression that they were going to have another first-ai- d die said. But now they feel like theyve learned something they need to know. ADDITIONAL CLASSES MAY be given as requested, she added. We want to give as many classes as we can to reach as many people as possible. Anyone interested in attending a class should contact the Safety Office at extension 5720 for scheduling. e.

As director of the Federal Womens Program my personal goal is, as the popular to television show puts it to integrate the program so well into the system, with such satisfactory safeguards as feminist agency heads and feminist managers, that the Federal Womens Program is no longer a necessary ingredient to insure equal opportunity for women in Federal employment. Some of my best friends, both men and women, are active feminists. We just need a few more both inside the Federal Government and outside before we can press button. I the cannot predict a but I can predict it will vary in different Federal agencies, in different geographical areas. Unfortunately, it is not imminent. Agency action plaas are in showing improvement barriers to equal identifying opportunity for women and action developing specific items to overcome these barriers. The challenge to correct the deficiencies will be with as for many years, Init our technology is improving. All of as mast work together to phase out the FWP and phase in real opportunities the for women without need for a special emphasis program. - for equal legislative all for persons; opportunity we have seen court actions impacting on the status of women in employment and education; we have seen stronger agency affirmative action plans addressing issues of concern to women; we have seen a substantial increase in the total numlier of Federal Women's Program liase Coordinators, particularly at installation level, and more importantly, with noticeable improvement in the qualifications of incjividuals selected; we have seen the publication and- dissemination - of on the detailed guidance Federal Womens Program for FWP Coordinators, Directors of Equal Employment Opportunity and Directors of. Personnel. WE HAVE seen managers relinquish some of their old ways of assigning work and training people solely on the lasis of sex; and we'have seen women themselves work harder at identifying their own career goals and preparing themselves for advancement. This progress demonstrates that in terms of the law, the framework of the program, and the statistical results, we are better off than we were. This progress also indicates that we are generally ahead of the private sector lroth in percentage of women in many professional groups and in percentages of women in the higher salary brackets. The fact is, that in spite of much room for improvement, there has been progress.
