This "polyclinic hospital for
pels" and "pet health plan" are
the inspirations of a aixmp includ
ing movie slur Glen Kord, ex-tv
producer Ed Lewis and William
Bowman, former head of Califor

Ttie pet hospital will feature a
drug store for tlogs and cats headed
by an "animal pharmacist", an
x-ray luboratory, YS wards with
680 "beds", a full-time animal
pathologist and a dietary expert
with a special kitchen.
On a dosed-circuit television set
student Veterinarians can watch a
surgeon operate on some rare ani
mal ease, just like on "Medic."
Two-footed visitors will be regu
lated. They can see their pet pa
tients only on the closed-circuit TV
set or through one-way windows in
to the 13 wards, so the dogs and
cats can recuperate undisturbed
Ford (a two-dog man) and his
colleagues announced their plan at
a press conference where a model
of the H'iO.OOQ now hospital was
on display.'
"Our hospital, now being built.
will have the most rigid standards
applied to human hospitals," Bow
man explained. "Health insurance
for pets is here! We hope to make
this plan nation-wide
No (Vmtaet
"Infection will be guarded
against! Each dog will have separ
ate runs and cukcs so there can be
no nose-to-nose contart
"Of course," he added, "we ex
pect the first pet applicants to be
chronic hypochondriacs. It's the
same wuy when I started human
health insurance."
The hospital also will offer train
ing lessons, free puppies, a lost-
and-found service and a beauty
salon for poodles. But hydrants and
dog swimming pools are missing.
No, they 're playing this pretty
straight," said one of Hie group's
numerous pres agents. "Plenty of
tret-s on the ground, though."

BAKER, Ore. (UP) An elderly
prospector has gone into a gold
mining partnership with this east

members approved an unidenti
fied prospector's plea to be al
lowed to work the 100 - year - old
Nelson Placer Mine six miles west

the city 15 per cent of the poke he
hopes to acquire through hand

Draught beer is a delicate, perishable

and the agitation of long-distance
travel. The sooner and more
directly it reaches you,
the more perfect is its flavor, .
Blitz is delivered to your tavern...
