Physical Fitness Tops 4-H Youths* Health Goal CHICAGO, 111. - The National 4-H Health program this year aims to improve personal fitness; and community health, announces the Nat- - ;onal 4-H Service Committee.’ Representing the 4th H in the club's four-leaf clover emblem, health activities or projects are expected to be completed by some 670,000 boys and girls from coast to coast. Best efforts will be rewarded through the program’s sponsor. Eli Lilly and Company. Health medals, trips to the National 4-H Club Congress at Chicago and SSOO college scholarships await hard-working 4-H'ers. Last year more than 5,000 memtiers earned the gold-filled health medal, according to the 4-H Service Committee. This was an increase of about 300 winners over 1962. With emphasis on fitness, members and local club leaders as well plan to take periodic inventory of health habits as outlined in the 1964 health bulletin published by the 4-H Service Committee. The idea-packed ; bulletin reminds club members that "health is first an individual affair and next a ' family affair." And, “because we cannot isolate ourselves from socI iety, we have a responsibility to , our neighbors to make our com- . munities safe and healthful." That is the sum and substance , of the health program. Individual club members are urged to have an annual physical examination, visit a dentist regularly, have eyes tested and take other preventive measures to insure good health. The importance of nutrition to over-all health is another area for stud;.' and one in which the entire family should be involved. Among club projects suggested are: tours to hospitals, waterworks, r sewage disposal plains; participan tion in health campaigns such as * tuberculosis x-rays, mental health 5 education, - summer camps and '• first aid. 1 As a result of early experience ' in health care, scores of former 1 4-H girls have entered; the nursing * or home economics professions. * Many boys have found careers in ! medicine or dentistry, in veteri- ; nary medicine or health research. The Cooperative Extension Sert vice puts the program into action. I and invites inquiries and enroll- ■ ment. Copies of the 1964 National 4-H Health bulletin can be obtained free from the county extension office.

YOUR 1 ■ Bloodmobile To Be! At Milford April 28; The Red Cross Bloodmobile unit , will make its visit Tuesday, April < 28, at the Milford fire station from . 12 noon to 6 p. m. This is the first ( visit to Milford in several years. | ,The quota set for the collection has ; been put at 125 bottles of blood, which will require approximately , 170 advance donor appointments. In an effort to meet the quota and | to build up Red Cross blood sup- < plies officials are hopeful of gaining ] the support of everyone eligible in | this area as a donor for the coming t bloodmobile visit. There are no actual, statistics that | can be cited to show how many lives ( have been saved, how many persons ; have been helped to a quicker and i less painful recovery, or how much j money has been saved, in hospital ; bills by a shorter hospital stay be- ( : cause of this program which makes i blood available to any person of this count}’, readily and freely, regard- ] less of their situation or location at , the time of need. ] But it is obvious that people who I donate to the program do provide , insurance for themselves, as every i donation of blood enhances one’s'; chances of safely overcoming an ac- I cident or unexpected illness, and lit- 1 erally stores up a life-saving account for themselves, their families, and their neighbors. There is nothing to fear in blood donation, the routine followed is simple and all donors are carefully processed by authorized medical personnel before giving; for the protection of the donor and the recipient of the blood. Any person, male or female, between the ages of 18 through 59. is eligible to give. Minors. 18 to 21, must have written consent in advance from a parent or a legal guardian even though they are married. Use American Red Cross Form (It must be dated not snore than 30 days previous to date of donation). No other form is acceptable. Most all donors find the experience of donating blood quite effortless. Be reminded that the ill and injured often need blood to help them ! recover. You who are in good health 1 are their only source of blood and i they look to you for help. Mrs. Herbert Baumgartner is in charge of arrangements. Her assistants are Mrs. Charles Kroh of Syracuse, Mrs. Loren Hahn, Scott township, Mrs. Herschel Albert of Leesburg, and Mrs. Robert Rumfelt of Jefferson township.

and consists of 2,500 acres of strip mine property suitable for development for hunting and fishing. Plans now include gradual development that will eventually offer public fishing, hunting, camping and related outdoor recreation. Some activity at the site is expected this year while ; work is being done to eliminate the acidity of lake water and the development of habitat conducive to procreation of quail, rabbit, and other game. Fish stocking programs will

take place as the lakes become suitable for natural breeding and survival. Experiments are now being conducted on lake waters to determine the fastest, most feasible way I to permanently reduce and eliminate the natural acidity of lakes in stripmine areas. The information and experience gleaned from the Patoka project is expected to open new areas of conservation of water and land resources on a reclamation basis.
