A man who really knows how to give a pep talk was on Capitol Hill today to rally House democrats behind Michael Dukakis. Jesse Jackson told lawmakers the candidate is supplying the priorities and they can supply the passion needed to elect Dukakis president. At the same meeting, democratic National Chairman Paul Kirk downplayed polls showing Dukakis trailing with only 19 days until the election. Kirk declared, "I don't see trouble I see opportunity."

WCU Graduate Displays EMC Invention Barbara Larson, head of EMC, tells of the acceditation (Brad Kimzey photo) "We are very proud of this development", said Connelly. "This is a very, very significant achievement; we can become the model for what other four-year programs are supposed to be like." According to Barbara Larson, head of WCU's Emergency Medical Care Program, Western now is one of the approximately 50 schools in the nation with accredited programs, and only the second in NC. Western's emergency medical care program has been in existence since 1976. To date, there have been 78 graduates, and there are currently 51 students enrolled. by Christine Faris NEWS EDITOR A 1984 graduate of WCU's Emergency Medical Care Program recently invented a device that might make him quite popular in the emergency health care profession. Randy S. Boggs, an employee of the Buncombe County Emergency Medical Services and Glasrock Home Health Care, has invented an arrhythmic baby bed. According to Boggs, the bed is an infant-sized air mattress connected to two chambers filled with water. Small air bubbles are forced through the chambers into the mattress. This causes the bed's surface to vibrated genUy in a noncyclic manner. The vibrations stimulus infants' breathing, helping to loosen secretions that cause respiratory problems. Boggs said that the idea for his invention came to him when he worked in respiratory therapy at Memorial Mission Hospital in Asheville. We would Paula Periera go out and pick up infants who were having trouble breathing", he said. "The baby would look really bad when we picked it up, but when we got it to the hospital, its heart rate would be up and its breathing would be improved; I deduced that the road vibrations were being transmitted up through the floor of the vehicle and to the bed", concluded Boggs Boggs' invention was originally designed for hospital use, but it can be used at home " by mothers of colicky babies to put the baby to sleep more quickly", he said. In addition, the bed can be produced on a larger scale for adults who have respiratory and circulation problems. According to Boggs, there are devices similar to his in production. However, "mine is the simplest and has the least moving parts", he said. Presently Boggs is investigating ways to produce his invention for sale. "I've thought about trying to produce it by myself, and I'm also interested in working with a manufacturer", he said.
