Would they like our kids'* Would they like m ir dog* Boy, were we lucky?

I resigned from the Board because o f a strong disagreement which oc curred during the Executive Session U n fo rtu n a te ly , th is leaves the Medical Board w ith m» representa non from Boardman I urge our County Commissioners to appoint, as soon as possible, tw o persons from the Boardman area to serve as Medical Board members Adequate representation o f all our local com munities is a necessity i f the Board is to function in a manner which is fair to all citizens o f M orrow C«>un ty When the County Court «Joes fill the Medical Board vacancies. I would like the new members to he aware o f my misgivings regarding the future of the Boardman C linic W ith the ailoption o f a new management agreement between St Anthony Hospital and M orrow County, the Boardman C linic w ill no longer be leased directly to St A n thony Instead, it w ill he managed by the County Medical Administrator in the same manner as our other medical facilities I am concerned about this situation for several reas«>ns First. St Anthony Hospital has been operating a clinic in Um atilla which is in competition w ith the Boardman C linic. Second, while the County Medical Ad mimstrator is responsible to carry out the p»>licics o f the Board, he is also an employee o f, and responsi ble to. St Anthony Hospital The Medical Board has been t«»ld by St Anthony's representative that they kvst money during their lease o f the Boardman C lin x This is certain ly understandable considering that St Anthony was operating not only the Boardman and Um atilla C linics in compctitKm with each other hut. until recently, the Hcmusion C linic as well It should als«» he pointed out that St Anthony's recent survey about the Boardman C linic »as n<*t sent to any residents o f Irrigon I believe that our clinic in Board man can meet the needs o f l«xal citizens with a minimum expenditure o f tax dollars i f the County Medical Administrator is given clear mstruc tarns to pursue the well being o f the Boardman C linic in the same man ncr as has been «lone w nh the Hcpp ncr C linic There can he no excuse foe the Medical Hoard to neglec t one clinic while nurturing the «»ther Ccr tainlv the successful operation o f the Boardman C linic «sill require «omc management skills, hut I believe that our Medical Adm inistrator has pro ved himself quite capable o f the task, provided that his abilities arc n«»t shackled The Board must recognize that there exists a potential for con flict o f interest with St Anth«»nv Hospital. andC«*unt> medical policy must ensure that all dcciM«»ns which concern the Boardman C linic are v ile ly based upon the best interests o f l«xal citizens (s) Stephen G Mounts Boardman SB 616 is important for hunters To the Edit«»r: SB # h l6 is a very inip«>rtant h ill fo r hunters and a public hearing on this "l« x a l preference'' legislation w ill he held at 3:30 p m in room 34) at the State Capitol on March 20 I initiated SB # b l6 on behalf of my constituents who have felt for a long time that they should receive preference status when deer an«) elk tags arc being used Tins hill w ill provide hunters with an assurance that they w ill he given a lag to hunt in their own county if they v> choose A hunter's applica non must list the first three unit choices w ithin the c«>unty in which the applicant resides in order u> receive this priority status Hunters should he allowed the op portunity to hunt in their own coun ties They support the economy there Justice Court Report____ Ih e Justice Court office at the ct*urthouse annex in Heppner reports handling the follow ing business dur ing the past week Christophct Murray Furnishing Alcohol to a M inor.
