Coates, White selected to attend seminar
The North Carolina Museum of Art
invited Deborah Phillips Coates and
one of her students, Bruce White to
attend the N.C., Museum of Art
Statewide Seminar for High School
Art Teachers and Students.
Forty teachers and forty students
from across the state were selected
to attend the seminar on April 11th.
The seminar offered both the stu
dents and teachers a unique opportu
nity to meet one of America's most
distinguished artist, Mr. Jacob Law
rence.
Mr. Lawrence is known for his
many activities including his teach
ing at the fabled Black Mountain
School of North Carolina in 1946 with
Bauhaus master Josef Albers, his fa
mous portrait which appeared on the
cover of Time Magazine in 1970, and
his many exhibitions which have
been held at museums such as the
Whitney Museum of Art in New York,
and the Seattle Art Museum.
During the course of the seminar
students and teachers were given the
opportunity to meet with Mr. Law
rence, tour the 20th century galleries,
and students had a discussion on
"Art after High School'" with Profes
sor Jim Starrett of the N.C.S.U.
School of Design.
Teachers also took part in a dis
cussion on using the Museum as a re
source.
Older Americans urged
to get immunizations
RALEIGH? State health officials
are urging all Ncrth Carolinians, es
pecially those over age 50. to make
>ure they ore properly immunized
against tetanus and diphtheria.
According to Dr. J.N. MacCor
mack, chie! of the Epidemiology Sec
tion for the Department of Human
Resources' Division of Health Serv
ices. the chance of getting tetanus,
;also known as lockjaw, is greatest
?tluring spring and summer.
I;. "The tetanus germ is found in soil
.an dust." MacCormack said. "With
-more people enjoying the outdoors
"during warmer weather, especially
with gardening and lawn work, the
chance of the tetanus germ entering
jhe body is greater. Once the germ
Renters the body, it creates a toxin
?which causes the muscles to go into
^spasms and then lock unless the per
son has been properly immunized."
- He pointed out that most people
think that tetanus resluts from con
tact with rusty nails. However, it an
enter the body through a minor cut,
puncture wound or burn caused by
anything ranging from a cat's
scratch to a thorn prick.
The last two cases of tetanus re
ported in North Carolina occurred in
1985, a decrease from 1983 when
there were five tetanus victims.
MacCormack said that health offi
cials are concerned about the age of
tetanus victims.
"In 1952. the average age of tet
anus patients was 15 years old. Of the
11 cases reported since 1980, how
ever, eight were 55 years or older,"
he explained. "This indicates that
our older citizens are not keeping up
with their tetanus shots. This is espe
cially important because older peo
ple and newborn infants are less
likely to survive the disease."
Tetanus immunization for adults
includes an initial series of three
shots followed by a booster shot ev
ery 10 years. Tetanus and diphtheria
vaccine are usually combined into
one shot. Most children in North Car
olina receive their tetanus and diph
theria vaccination along with other
basic immunizations before starting
school; however, it is important that
they get their boosters every 10
years, too.
"The treatment for tetanus is
lengthy and expensive, " MacCor
i
mack said "About all (hat can be
done for a tetanus victim is to sedate
the patient and simply wait out the
disease. This could mean three to
four weeks in a hospital, or possibly
even longer "
He added that '.he cost for a tetanus
vacinnation is very small compared
to actual treatment, which averages
about $1-4. (KM) per case.
