Health Unit urges parents to check children for head lice With Durham schools opening their doors this week the Regional Health Unit has issued a warning to parents to check their children for head lice. Elizabeth Schaefer, direc- tor of nursing services with the Health Unit says in a statement released last week that during the 1979-80 school year some 600 children in the Region had to be sent home from class because of head dents for this very commun- icable infestation. The Health Unit warns parents to -inspect their children's heads prior to the start of classes this Tuesday morning, and if they suspect that head lice are present, they are asked to notify the Health Unit office in Oshawa at 723-8521. . Ms. Schaefer says. that because head lice are very communicable, it is crucial in baseball or hockey. Lice or pediculosis can also be transmitted by direct contact with an infested person, or from clothing, combs and brushes. The head louse is grayish in colour, oval shaped and measures up to one-sixth of aninch in length. It lives on the scalp and its food is blood. The nits or eggs of the head louse are whitish-gray and lice.

David Carroll, the full- time instructor at the Nonquon Environmental Education Centre north of Port Perry began the climb on Mount McKinley in July. The four were due to return to their base on August 1, and when they failed to show up a search was started three days later bythe Alaska National Park Service. Subsequent ground search- es by friends of Mr. Carroll proved fruitless, and since it is the avalanche season in the area and the climbing party have been missing for, 30 days, just about all hope for their survival has been given up. Mr. Carroll was first hired by the Durham Education Board in 1976 and the Nonquon Centre was used by school students of all ages from all parts of Durham Region for nature and envir- onmental studies. Mr. Carroll's abilities as a teacher have been praised by Jim Sterling, the Durham superintendent of Education for this area. Mr. Carroll had scaled Mount McKinley once before in 1973, but this summer had chosen the more difficult route known as Cassin Ridge. He had turned down a job offer to teach mountain climbing in France this summer so that he and his companions could attempt the McKinley climb. He is survived by his wife Sheilagh and two year old daughter Kathleen. MINI CINEMA 95.653 Friday 7&9 P.M. SEPTEMBER 5-6-7 Saturday & Sunday 8 P.M.
