During the next year, engineers will chart water-flow patterns along the wash to determine whether they have been changed during the 1980s by the construction of nearby residential and commercial developments. The study will include an area stretching between Interstate 17 and Cave Creek Road. Engineers also will look for changes in the wash's capacity how much water it can hold since the last study, which was conducted in 1978.

A pair of Phoenix veterinarians know from experience that pets are not immune from the mishaps and accidents that befall children.

They advise pet owners to be prepared for animal emergencies and offer a class on pet first aid through the Phoenix Parks, Recreation and Library Department. "I treat pets like I would my own child," said Stewart Cellcrs, a vctcri-. narian with Northern Animal Hospital, 2611 W. Northern which sponsors the popular course. The classes will be held Oct.

12 at Washington Adult Center, 2240 W. Citrus Way, and Oct. 25 at Deer Valley Community Center, 2001 W. Wahalla Lane, both in Phoenix. The classes meet, from 6:45 to 8:45 p.m.

Gabor Vajda, also a veterinarian with the animal hospital, pioneered the idea of pet CPR training for the public. The spate of drownings this summer has focused public attention on the importance of cardiopulmonary-rcsuscitation training, but veterinarians urge people not to forget about pet safety. "Undoubtedly, more emphasis should be put on the child on the bottom of the swimming pool, but it is also important to know how to save a pet," Cellcrs said.

Remy The Arizona Republic Marriott Corp. broke ground Tuesday in Sun City for apartments that represent the company's newest venture in the senior-housing market. The 100-unit complex, to be called Sun City Brighton Gardens, will be on 3.3 acres along Boswcll Boulevard just north of Bell Road. It will provide nurses and staff to help bathe and dress residents who need such help. "We believe there is an overwhelming demand for communities like Brighton Gardens," said F.W.

"Butch" Cash, president of the Marriott Service Group. Cash said that in the next five years, Marriott plans to build 150 Brighton Gardens nationwide, creating housing for 25,000 retirees. The first of the complexes will be in Virginia Beach, Bellairc, Texas, near Houston; Stottsdalc; and Sun City. All four arc expected to open in fall 1990. Housing for older adults will be a growth market, Cash predicted.

"Today, there arc over 31 million Americans over age 65," he said. "By the year 2020, there will be over 50 million Americans over 65." The company began to consider entering the senior-citizens market about six years ago, said Brian Swinton, Marrioti product-development manager.
