The CFC needs your support
The initial response to the 1978
Combined Federal Campaign Overseas Area
demonstrates good support f *om DoD
personnel, both military and civilian,
on the Keflavik NATO base.
However, campaign leader Lieutenant
Colonel James S. Godwin emphasized that
the campaign target is 100 percent. As
of Tuesday there was a thirty-percent
participation rate on the NATO base.
Such support is needed by the 13 Inter-
national Service Agencies, the American
National Red Cross, and 16 National
Health Agencies for their programs of
wide-ranging service to millions of
persons.
The 1978 campaign slogan, "Make some-
one Happy through Your CFC," indicates
the person-to-person aspect of the
drive, individual donors to agencies
which aid people in a personalized
approach.
The annual campaign offers an ease of
contribution. Participants may choose
either an on-the-spot gift or pledge
through the payroll allotment system,
with deductions begining in January
1978 paychecks.
All agencies operate on a non-profit
basis. The overall CFC Campaign
Overseas Area is carried out with an
overhead of only two percent. Gifts are
divided among the ISA, American Red Cros
Cross, and the National Health Services.
Make a date with EDITH tonight
Every single day in the United States there is an average of 2,771 fires
which cost more than four billion dollars a year and take nearly 12,000 human
lives. In an effort to, first of all,save a life.and secondly,keen fire damaqe to
a minimum the Nato base fire department has been conducting an extensive awareness
campaign during the past few weeks in conjunction with the U.S. observance of
National Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 9 - 15. Today, the last day of fire preven-
tion week, the fire department plans to end the week-long effort by participating
in "Operation EDITH" at 5:30 p.m. The
fire department asks that you make a .ate
date with EDITH - Operation EDITH, which
is a fire escape project that means £xit
Drills In _The JJome.
Neither a wTse old aunt or a fairy
godmother, EDITH nevertheless can save
the family in an emergency if everyone
cooperates with "her" now.
This involves having each person in
the household take part in Operation
EDITH. To prepare for EDITH, sit down
now with the entire family and plan
step-by-step what to do to get everyone
out of the house or apartment quickly
and safely during a fire.
Then, when EDITH arrives tonight,
actually hold a "rehearsal," using the
pre-planned household alert signal, al-
ternate exits from bedrooms, and assem-
bly point outdoors, well away from the
burning building.
The fire department will be touring
the base with their trucks and sirens
checking the success of the operation.
Everyone should get to know EDITH.
It's worthwhile becoming acquainted with
Exit Drills In The Home because EDITH
literally can mean the difference be-
tween life and death during a fire
emergency.
Tutoring program needs
an hour of your time
The time of the year has arrived
when the leaves are turning colors,
footballs are in the air and the
school year is in full gear.
Do you remember the days of gruel-

questions and conjugating verbs in
French? And, do you remember how easy
it was once someone took the extra time
to sit with you and explain it?
The base Tutoring Program is asking
for your help. Our community has a
great deal to offer. Let's offer some
of our knowledge to the students in the
Dependents' Schools. They don't ask
for the world, only an hour or two of
your time a week.
No matter what your specialty-Alge-
bra, English, Chemistry, whatever-take
a minute to find out about the tutoting
program. Give Lt. Bill Marlett of the
57 FIS a call (ext. 4584). You might
even enjoy an evening helping a young
student iron out problems with a par-
t?.cular subject.
