Show Jan. 15, 1942 FIELD TEACHER IS REQUESTED Red Cross Needs One More Instructor Trainer A request for another national Red Cross representative to come to Ogden for instruction of a class of first aid workers deemed cap¬able of becoming first aid teachers has been forwarded to the national office, said Kent S. Bramwell, local first aid instruction director, to¬day. William T. Raney, who spent three weeks here, leaving last Sun¬day, taught two classes and all his students who completed the work have been assigned to teach classes, Mr. Bramwell said. Additional requests for first aid classes, coming in at the rate of two to three daily, forced the re¬quest for certificates of more teachers. Classes in standard first aid approved by the Red Cross will be taught this evening at seven p. m. at the Moench building, We¬ber college, and the L. D. S. Twentieth ward. Members of the American Legion auxiliary and other beginners interested are asked to meet at the Moench build¬ing, and residents of the Twentieth ward area are asked to meet there. Following the example set by their auxiliary and their assistants, dentists of Ogden will start taking a standard first aid course Friday at seven p. m. at Ogden high school. So many teachers of the Ogden city schools have requested classes, it has become necessary to cancel the class on, Friday, and arrange three classes.
