Show 'FIRST AIDERS' FORM GREATEST NEED IN OGDEN Women and Girls Bidden To Register for Training Women and girls who want to do their share in national defense are advised that the most needed workers in this area today are "first aiders." The local Red Cross chapter was advised Monday that although there are scores of trained "first aiders," the majority of them are in indus¬tries or occupations that will need all manpower when the need for first aid arises, either through bombing or some other catas¬trophe. Most of the trained persons listed with the Red Cross are police, fire¬men, utilities employes or guards at one or another Of the military reservations near Ogden. In other words, the number of trained per-sons available in case of disaster is limited to about a score. Registration for first, aid train¬ing can be made at Weber college and at Ogden and Weber county high schools, it was announced at the Red Cross chapter office. Kent S. Br am well, who was ill today, is expected to set up an office in conjunction with the Red Cross office for the purpose of directing first aid training in the city. It is hoped that several hun¬dred persons will register for im¬mediate training. OCTOBER 1941 They Strive for Perfection in First Aid Training TRAINING . . . Members of the Soroptimst club of Ogden are shown above as they strove for perfection in first aid work to contribute their bit to national defense. These women will volunteer for service as drivers and aides on emergency ambulance service in case of an invasion of the intermountain country. The “victims” are Mrs. W. O. Norville, with arm in sling, and Mrs. Elizabeth Bird with head bandaged. Applying the arm bandage is Ethel Glasmann Clark, Soroptimist president, and placing the head bandage is Miss Shelia Astley. In center is Mrs. Dix Jones, instructor. The women have completed the Red Cross standard first aid course. |
