Red Cross presents award to lifesaver
Instincts praised
Scott Rose, Salina junior, didn't believe the other swimmers at the Robinson Gymnasium pool Sept. 16 when she was wrong with the person in the water.
Instead, he acted on instinct and went after the motionless body of Charlotte Guunardwa, Sri Lanka graduate student. Rose performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and revived Guunardwa.
Last night, Joey Bier, president of the Douglas County Division of the American Red Cross, presented Rose Anderson, a civilian honor given by the Red Cross.
The award, a certificate of merit, will bear the signatures of President Reagan and the national president of the Red Cross. The certificate will be sent, said, "as soon as the president sets its course with Reaganomics."
The award was presented at a dinner at the Sigma Nu fraternity, of which Rose is a member.
“This award is not to be taken lightly,” Byers said. “We have been here for 16 years, and this is only the 10th one awarded.”
Gunawardena entered the deep end of the pool and become frightened when she sees a monster.
"I'm not a very good swimmer, just a beginner," she said. "When I couldn't touch, I panicked and swallowed lots of water."
When Rose pulled Gunawardaen from the pool she was unconscious and he began mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
"I thought I was dead," Gunaward-
a said, unconscious, unconscious,
and I know anything.
Bernard Taylor, Health, Physical
Education and Recreation instructor,
spoke at the dinner, commending Rose
for his work.
"It's not hard to practice on the plastic dummies and know the procedures," Taylor said. "The dif- ference that Huffman coated under firing-line activity."
Taylor said Rose seemed to possess a sense trained lifeguards learn with experience.
"We all were lucky that Scott didn't listen to the others around her at the pool," Taylor said. "He reacted to his sixth sense."
