  • TlTEr Qai^dLiMiaM vomi: of the snm:\Ts VOL. XL No. 6 THURSDAY JULY 25, 1974 WESTERN CAROLINA UNIVERSITY CULLOWHEE, NORTH CARO'.INA Folk Festival opens today in Waynesville The third annual Smoky Mountain Folk Festival opens today in Waynesville. The festival provides opportunities for visitors to examine and enjoy the traditional culture of the Great Smoky Mountains. The festival is sponsored by the Town of Waynesville Parks and Recreation Department and runs through Saturday. The festival will open with an ice cream social on the front lawn of the Haywood County Courthouse in Waynesville. Beginning at noon on Thursday the congenial ladies of the Haywood County Hospital Auxiliary dish out ice cream, cake and refreshments from beneath their red and white tent. At 7 p.m. the festival joins the ice cream social for a street dance on Main Street in front of the Court House. The festival's staff band will provide square dance tunes and blue grass music until the crowd is filled with ice cream and clogging. The Smoky Mountain Beef Shoot will be Saturday at Waynesville's American Legion Field. Marksmen will compete from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m., vying for beef prizes with muzzle-loading long rifles of the type used by the original settlers of the Smokies. The interrelationship between mountain crafts and music will be apparent at the Waynesville Junior High School ELAINE (Nancy Hammill-left) tells BLANC HE (Karen Furno)... 'Mr. Appleby has just been telling me the wildest things about that building...that it's evil, haunted,...drenched with horror." in the production of NIGHTWATCH bv Lucille Fletcher on July 30, 31, and August 1 in the Little Theater at Western Carolina University. For reservations call 293-7491, Department of Speech and Theater Arts.(photo bv Steve Cook) Save Caney Fork A forum between officials of Carolina Power and Light Company and Caney Fork residents will be held Saturday night at 7:30 in the Caney Fork Community Center, The CP&L officials will be present to answer questions about a proposed two-dam complex the company wants to construct on Caney Fork. If the dams are built, it will force the evacuation of about 20 families in the area and result in the destruction of one of the area's most scenic spots. Many area residents and sympathizers are mounting a campaign to oppose the dams. All persons wishing to help Save Caney Fork are urged to attend the meeting. SECT gives swift assistance by Terry Hoyle A serious accident occurred outside the basement door of Hoey Auditorium at about 10:45 a.m. on Monday. A WCU student badly injured his arm when it rammed through one of the window panes of the basement door0 The injury involved serious bleeding with deep, multiple lacerations. Although the injury was serious, it could not have happened at a more opportune time. Several Student Emergency Care Team (SECT) members witnessed the accident and were on the scene in seconds to administer emergency care and control excessive bleeding. While the ambulance was being dispatched, the infirmary notified all on-crew members, who were on the scene when the ambulance arrived. Bleeding stabilization measures were begun immediately. This was necessary before the patient could be transferred in order for the patient to have the best chances of recovery without complications. The bleeding was controlled by a combination method of direct pressure and by elevating the injured extremity to a position as high above the heart as possible. While treating the patient, an emergency medical technician was alerting the infirmary as to the nature and seriousness of the accident. With any serious injury, early medical treatment is impera tive. Nurses, a doctor, and a physician's associate were standing by for immediate care. While examination was being conducted, the doctor talked with the on-call surgeon at C. J. Harris hospital in Sylva in order to advise him as to extent and nature of the injury,, This method expedited the procedures which would follow at C. J. Harris. After the patient's condition was stabilized and C. J. Harris was preparing to receive the patient for emergency, immediate surgical treatment, SECT members transported the Gallager to address parents' seminar The director of the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will address a group of parents whose children are attending the Gifted and Superior Student Program at Western Carolina University today. Dr. James Gallagher will be among the speakers at a parents' seminar marking the end of the four-week summer program at WCU. He will speak at 8 p.m. in the Grandroom of Hinds University Center. Before assuming his present position in 1970, Dr. Gallagher served as deputy U. S. commissioner of education, and as associate commissioner of the Bureau of Education for the Handicapped. A former professor of education at the Institute for Research on Exceptional Children at the University of Illinois, he has published many works, including "Teaching the Gifted Child" and "Teaching Gifted Students," a book of readings. Other evening speakers include Dr. Betty Bowman, whose daughter is an eighth-grade student in the gifted program, will present the parents' viewpoint. The two-day seminar for parents will begin Thursday afternoon with presentations by Dr. Charles Stallings, program director, and Dr. Taft B. Botner, dean of the WCU School of Education and Psychology. The evening program will follow a 6 p.m. dinner in Brown Cafeteria. Friday's events include an open house at Camp Laboratory School at 9:45 a.m., and special exhibits and performan= ces by the students in music, band, gymnastics, art, and crafts. More than 300 children have been attending the program, now finishing its 17th year. patient to Sylva. Because the patient's condition had been stabilized at Graham Infirmary, excessive speed was not necessary. This would have caused a rough ride and, consequently, discomfort for the patient or could have worsened his condition. Upon arrival,theSECTmem- bers found the emergency room staff ready to provide immediate treatment, This call is one of several calls in the past few months that exemplifies the importance of immediate treatment in the field by emergency medical technicians and of radio communication with doctors and various medical facilities. The community of Cullowhee has these services available to it. According to the latest theory issued by the American Medical Association, with proper trained personnel and equipment, the emergency is terminated after the ambulance arrives on the scene. In essence, the patient is being given the same treatment that he would be given in a hospital emergency room—but only 20-30 minutes sooner, by especially trained emergency personnel. Because of its proximity with a large medical center, SECT is available with training and equipment to provide immediate care which is critically important to a seriously injured person; this could mean the difference between life and death, on Boyd Avenue, central site of the Smoky Mountain Folk Festival. On display at the craft fair will be hand-made instruments such as dulcimers and fiddles which carry the heart of mountain music. Colorful patchwork quilts of intricate design are to hang above the displays of pottery, bas- ketweaving and woodcarving. These crafts will also decorate the walls during the music and dance programs. The craftsmen will be available to discuss and demonstrate their crafts at the festival. The craft fair will be open from 2 p.m. until 10 p.m. today through Saturday at the Junior High School. The music and dance program begins at 7 p.m0 Friday and Saturday at the same site. Admission to both events is $2 for adults and Si for children 8- 15 years old, or 50 cents admission to the craft fair only. HEW awards grants An $85,858 allied health developmental and demonstration project grant has been awarded to the WCU School of Health Sciences and Services by the U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Dr. H. F. Robinson, chancellor,has announced. The grant represents fourth and fifth year funding of a five- year program of federal support for the development of health sciences at Western Carolina. The first grant was made in July 1971. A total of $198,700 has been awarded to WCl by the Bureau of Health Resources Development of HEW. The WCU project, under the direction of Harry E. Ramsey, programs coordinator for the School of Health Sciences and Services, is designed to provide supplementary support for the development of health science studies at WCl" and to demonstrate the co-mingling of state and federal funds for improvement and expansion of academic programs. Dr. John F. Bergner Jr., school dean, said the grant has resulted in a significant increase in the number of students majoring in medical technology and medical record administration, the number of faculty members, and in expansion of course offerings. At the same time, he noted, it has allowed for a gradual phasing in of program support by the university. Since the school was first funded, six faculty members have been added, 35 new courses of instruction have been introduced. There are now 195 students majoring in the health sciences.
